It's a good comment, and I'm inclined to agree, but if that's the most profound thing you've ever read, I'd recommend you get reading. There's a whole world out there!
At the same time as the international team receives the enciphered messages, radio amateurs around the world will be able to receive the same radio broadcasts and try their hand at decrypting it. It will be fascinating to see who completes the job first!
It's not the mice I'm afraid of, it's the supersoldier program to which this could be applied. I gave the target of that link a quick glance, and couldn't see anything on there that could be said to apply. Could you link to something specific? (and if not, why provide the link?)
Father got a Macbook. Dual core jobby. Play videos full screen for too long and it'll switch off. That's after you've patched the fan controller to actually get the fans going when it heats up. Has had to be sent back once because the CPU cooked itself. Otherwise, it's a nifty little machine.
I've no idea about the heat put out by the PPC based Macs, but the Intel based ones can get pretty hot, it seems.
A software patent won't protect you against the grown ups, because if your program is non-trivial then, considering that these guys have thousands of patents of their own, and considering technologies implemented in software are incremental and not discrete, you will probably be infringing one of theirs. You can be forced to choose between a cross-licensing deal or years in court.
The result is, patent or no patent, if the big boys want to use your algorithm and compete with you, they will.
Does MySQL have named placeholders? I've only ever used it through PHP, and you need to use question marks if you wanna do that. I've never really bothered (not actually written anything I'd think to release yet in this arena) myself. A few days ago I and a friend had a go at writing a wrapper to handle named placeholders, but it was a pretty dirty hack (using preg_replace_callback and global variables... uurrrgghh).
Oil isn't just a fuel. You'll not only need to find alternative fuels, but alternative plastics, road coverings etc. This makes the issue a little bit more problematic.
if you are a girl you probably look like a donkey's asshole, especially if you're home subscribing to Slashdot, loser Whereas, by anonymously hurling sexist abuse at strangers, you are providing a role model for the next generation.
Can someone please tell me the justification for allowing AC posts?
I am shocked and appalled that the Chinese would stoop so low as to adopt censorship policies. Their long and proud history of freedom has been sorely tarnished by this scandal!

What concept? What is it?
Woah, link me up. Like to read about that.

Obviously System V IPC has been available for years.
No, you weren't. I nearly shat myself when I saw the headline.

Man, that's bad. I don't even have a CS degree and I know what that does.

It's XKCD, of course. Here's a link to the comic in question.
I have to say, quoting Serbian epic poetry is a new one on me.

Different sequence. Primary, secondary, tertiary.
Nice reference there.
Oh, I concur. I wasn't being serious.
Point is, many places don't even have AC posting options.

That was just in case it wasn't a really lame attempt at humour.
Haha, the /. restrictions for AC posting are "draconian?"
They're not banned, they're still able to post links to disgusting images and ruin threads, what's your problem?
