Interpreter code is quite simple; what you mostly do is analyze and tokenize a text stream. 64k is a really generous amount of RAM for that task if you are at least a half decent coder with some Assembler experience. Ages ago I did elaborate string processing on an 8086 using Assembler, within a 64k shared code/data segment. It's really not hard if you know how the underlying processor architecture behaves, which in turn is a requirement for actually programming in Assembler.
With your advertisement for expensive proprietary software you do one thing exceptionally well: totally miss the point.
The article author wants to boot an operating system via PXE, with no OS actually being present on the client. Even if he were to do it the traditional "remote login" way, the OS on the clients doesn't matter, nor is it visible at all, only the server OS.
I really cry for these oppressed US Americans, Liberians and Burmese who are oppressed by our standards tyranny yet still bravely resist and stick to intuitive units like 5/12 of an eighth of an adult foot's approximate length.
Well, then those software publishers finally have to compete on quality, not lock-in, and write software that is good at impementing the standard to win the bid.
Funny that I didn't manage to get a pizza with chorizo in southern Spain; the few pizzerias I found were only serving American style-something. BTW as a German I associated peperoni with bell pepper too, and we have a lot more common words for different members of the Capsicum genus of plants. The big, mild variety is "Paprika", for example.
It's certainly most feasible for the American version of rural. In Europe, there is not a single square meter untouched by man (except of some areas north of the polar circle) and walking into into a random direction at a random place will make you stand on someone's lawn within half an hour maximum. Obviously, connected water management is the way to go. I saw a few cesspools in a remote village at the southern outskirts of Spain ("remote" meaning a village of 300 being 20 km away from a town of 22000), but tap water was ok.
In my experience with Italy, what you get extremely varies with where you go (not only regarding food). You can expect to get good food at the "traditional" places, otherwise it's more grab bag style.
That said, American pizza is different but not worse or better. I like the kind of cheese on American pizza but not the softness of the edge.
Too much censorship of the mass media, too much promotion of consumerism. Watching stupid shows on TV and buying the latest and greatest products is what we westerners are told will make us happy. Well, the happiest people on this planet (according to a statistic I don't remember the name of) are the Colombians. They live in a country ridden by fifty years of civil war and a significant part of the population working 15 hours a day so they can eat. And they still enjoy life more than everyone else on the planet.
That alliance would be rather Germany + France, I think. They are often called the "engine" of the evolution of the European Union. Also, they are the biggest payers.
Yes, that's a big problem with them, the thinking that their way is the only one that can be. I travel a lot and also hang out on travel forums. The funniest I ever read there was from a fellow German living in Nicaragua. He said that the coast is overrun with American expats, who have been living there for ten or twenty years, don't know one word of Spanish and still demand that the locals speak their language. What a fucked up life that must be.
From what I have heard, the New York style pizza comes close to what we consume in Europe (crispy and not too much toping). But none comes even close to a real Neapolitan margherita.
Ironically this will be used as an anti-EU story by the very same people who let it happen by rejecting the constitution last year.
You must be speaking of the leaders of many countries who didn't bother to do a popular referendum, instead of a parliament vote, on such an important and fundamental matter.
Establishing, then breaking, a non aggression treaty with the USSR was a key element in the plan in the first place. He already suggested that as a necessity in "Mein Kampf", along with the invasion of France. If he wouldn't have broken the treaty for some reason, the Soviets had broken it soon on their part; they had controlled the east a few years earlier and the Third Reich would have collapsed anyway because it was ruled exclusively by one person with a deteriorating mind. Even if major events would not have taken place or had happened differently, the outcome would have been very similar because the rulers of the various war parties had their plans and visions of a post-war Europe which they followed insistently and at all costs.

You were talking to a chair thar was a Google employee? I thought they had somewhat stricter recruitment criteria.

I, for one, are hungary for goulash soup now.

XML is abused way too often in places where it doesn't belong. Also it is not easy to read or edit with the ultimate tool - the good old text editor.
The English-speaking media seem to fail to mention that Plurk is Taiwan based[1]... not in the People's Republic of China.

More like, one-sixth of the world population are part of a botnet, relaying junk mail for the true spammers.

Funniest pizza analogy I have seen in a while. Mod accordingly please.

What makes you think that the US has to pay upkeep for UN property?
Yes, that's a big problem with them, the thinking that their way is the only one that can be. I travel a lot and also hang out on travel forums.

Who cares, if they make the best pizza?
Then it would be a calzone, not a pizza. I'm starting to get confused.

I haven't looked at it yet that way: "information laundry". Mod parent up.

It was actually the Russians who saved Europe during WW2.
Actually, that were Soviets, although most of them were ethnic Russians ;-)
Germany later returned the favor by "winning" the Cold War at the Berlin Wall, which was the beginning of the Eastern Bloc collapse sequence.
