I used MFC for a fairly large project... it wasn't too bad at all. When I first looked at it I nearly puked. After a while, it became clear for for UI's, it is golden. One important thing to remember when using MFC, don't try to think too far out of the box. (Don't try and bend and twist the framework too much) That leads to "interesting" bugs.:-)
Overall, I thought it worked okay. But the MSDN doc is VERY VERY useful.
Hmm... sounds like a big black hole. Seems like it would be fun to visit... now they need to work on WARP drives.
Seriously, there needs to be more money spent on the space program. It is one of the truely "neat" things humans do. Besides, we have to prepare to one day move off this rock.
Wouldn't that be cool if it was used on the up-and-comming 2-way satellite connections... there is some serious speed....
Also, good multicast support.:-)
Peace Out.
...will it be until all of what we see is completely customized to the person looking at it? It is only a matter of time... they are able to superimpose adds onto tenis games... so when will those ads be targeted just to me? I kinda liked the days of good old information on the net... plain text baby!
I recent;y sat down to figure out how to build a pretty high speed clustor. I only really need to do integer math, so I was going to go for a 30 or so node clustos of Abit BP6 MB's. Not too expensive...
I began to realize, there is a lot to a PC that you don't need... so I began to look into building an embedded super computer...
I posted to "Ask Slashdot", but it never made it...
What exactly would it take to make an embedded super computer? A network of systems on a chip? A bunch of celerons tied together?
Yes... I know that printing may seem lame... but this is so very important to making the world go round'. We are living is a world that is becomming mor eand more dependant on networks... and we will always need to print. You just can't beat a hard copy. Paperless office? Bah.
I understand that there is the remarking risk... but how bad is it?
I think CPU's should handle the clock like the Dragonball... let the user set the PPL. If you are "silly" enough to run it at all-kinds-of-crazy-speeds then you deserve the "interesting" results... but to just run it a _little_ bit faster... that's okay.:-)
I wonder when we will start to see modems that can handle this... the call wating feature looks cool. I always wondered why a modem couldn't listen for it... then alert you. Oh well.
I wonder how much you can actaully pump through a phone line? 56k is pretty darn fast for POTS.
Have a look at Sparta. http://www.cse.psu.edu/~mdl/sparta/
They seem to be doing just what you are talking about. I have used the demo program, and I must say it is VERY impressive. I haven't seen such realistic physics in a while...
I think these, write once, and compile anywhere API's are the way to go... no meed to fuss with a virtual machine, and you get native speed. Now we need to see a standard for developing GUI's and the like. I know there are some out there now, but I am not sure which one to use.
My experince with OpenGl was VERY posative, so I am excited about OpenAL and OpenGUI...
I think I read on Intel's site that the PIII and Celeron2 have a builtin hardware random number generator. That would probalby be the way to go. But now that I surfer around their site, I might have been thinking about this: http://developer.intel.com/design/security/rng/rng .htm
Get one of those electric muscle workout things. They simulate you working out... you flex without thinking about... so you can do some real work... coding.:-)
They make a m68k Coldfire based router. It runs the port of the 2.0.38 kernel that supports chinps with no mmu. I have seen hacked versions of the NETtel that even play MP3's. That Coldfir ein one sweet chip. (and it has a cool name)
I have played with the uCsimm... it is a pretty sweet piece of hardware. It has an ethernet controler, so you could turn it into a lame router no problem.

I think it all comes down to what happens in the movie "Arlington Road". All the people care about the crackers and virus guys want is a name... someone to blame for all the damages... I agree that there is just too much information to search through...

It was already mentioned... but Keep in Touch is pretty nice. I played around with it for sometime last year, and it seemed pretty solid.

The other ineteresting one is BET.

I didn't use it much... but the code seemed to work... I didn't get a chance to benchmark/test it...
These were all for a secure login server for an online game that I gave up on.
Peace out.

Kudos my man.
I just LOVE LinuxPPC. Now I might consider buying a new dual G4.
Or maybe I should wait for the G4e. That _should_ be a sweet chip...
Anyone have any benchmarks using the new kernel? What about the use of Altivec?
Peace out.

Actually the RC5 client is based solely on integer math...
here is a link to their FAQ:
RC5 FAQ
Later.
This is a better link for the FPU debate... Here...
Well... according to distributed.net's doc... RC5 is ALL integer... http://n0cgi.distributed.net/faq/cache/56.html FYI

Here I go to start my own content search engine... wish me luck!
Hmm... I wonder what sort of hard I would need to get a good one going... something like the google clustor?
Anywho... this looks good to me!

Anyone have any input? www sites?
Thanks!
We need a card like this to process RC5 blocks... that would be sweet!
What sort of CPU would be best for RC5? I know it is VERY heavy on integer math... so what (cheap) CPU is the best at integer math?
Thanks.

Yeah, I would have to agree. I just bought a Linksys router... with the 4 port switch. For under 200 bucks you get a pretty sweet piece of hardware.
:-)
It use VERY low power... doesn't even get warm. Also, it was a breeze to set up.
I used to have a linux box doing the routing, but now it is doing what it _should_ be doing... RC5.

Ouch is right... I can build a dual celeron system for just about 600 bucks... if they sold it for about 200... then we could talk. :-)
Wow... I might have a pick up a couple... :-)
The ARM is best at integer math right? I am looking for a cheap platform for doing image processing on a massive scale. Might need DSP's... do'h.
Anwho, looks like it would make a nice web/ftp server... or maybe a firewall...
Yup.

1 million is pretty steep for a garbage collector... how about using high powered lasers to blast the sky clean?
