3) What? Variables with types? I don't understand! Variables don't have types, values have types!
How does this effect static testing? I am a lisp proponent but I find this to be a difficult target to tackle, especially in the corner cases.
This will overflow if str isn't null terminated. Say after a
strncpy(str, biggerstr, sizeof(str));
You cause n+1 iterations through the entire string.
Assuming str isn't dynamically allocated:
for ( int i = 0 ; i < sizeof(str) && str[i] ; ++i)...
If it is dynamically allocated, you know how big it is. If it's passed in via pointer, require a length argument. Then i < len rather than strlen(str) every time through the loop.
On non-windows platforms you're pretty much limited to
MyTrack Java SDK and Interactive Brokers (Doesn't play nice with mozilla) for retail services.
MyTrack offers pretty good data although it can lag a good bit behind the marked (5-20 sec) and seems to be mostly unsupported.
IB's data is, well, you wouldn't want to trade off it alone. However the executions are great and their fee schedule is very competitive. Their Java TWS, which runs very well on Linux/UNIX, is somewhat programmable via either a socket interface or Java API.
I haven't worked with the MyTrack SDK for years so I can't comment on MyTrack's performance recently, but their executions were not comparable with other EDAT brokers and barely up to web broker standards when I used them. IB offers pretty good market coverage especially in commodities and options. Currently their API limits executions to their proprietary routing system, the client offers direct access routing to various exchanges. They also offer a much richer API to pro customers although their fees aren't as competitive in that area.
It's also worth mentioning that IB's platform is a bare-bones, no handholding, execution platform. If you want support and fancy tools go elsewhere but their executions and margin policies are pretty good (exchange min. on most contracts). When there is a problem however, you'll be happy to have a backup broker to hedge the positions you hold with IB. They require this in their customer agreement

I only mention options that are available on Linux/UNIX for retail brokers because thats all I've investigated for my own use. I may post a better summary when I recover from last night..
I'm using the stylus and Graffiti for input. Granted they're not complicated scripts, just small edits to config files so I can get them back online and get in via a real terminal.
5-10 line changes are a breeze, if you know ed. Longer than that It's probably worth lugging a 20lb term in there or stringing more cat5 along. For a quick look however, the minimalist ed means fewer strokes and no screen updates. It's saved me hours in the shit and strokes on my soon to be out of warranty Palm.
I use my Palm V regularly as a serial terminal for routers and headless machines. I've found, of all things, ed, to be the most usable editor in this environment.
The argument against IPSEC and for wireless link crypto is based on the perceived overhead of forcing everything on an internal enterprise network to run IPSEC so that the wireless subnet can be secure.
Using IPSEC on the wireless network only requires the wireless stations and a gateway to run IPSEC. The IPSEC gateway acts like a normal router to the rest of the network. You can even do transparent gatewaying based on proxy-arp.
Our laptops use 802.11b cards without WEP and 2 Linux machines with Prism2 based cards operating in HostAP mode. One AP handles the encryption and allows handoff to the other via proxy-arp depending on which AP has the link to a particular station on their own wired subnet. The primary AP acts as a router to the rest of the unencrypted wired lan. All the stations on the wireless lan are configured to drop all but the IPSEC traffic. This not only protects against spoofing and hijacking on the wireless lan but also gives strong encryption to the traffic.
After the pleasant experience I had with Freeswan on the wireless network I'm considering bringing IPSEC to the rest of the wired network.
gcc may not be the best compiler in the world, but it's open source. If there is a serious deficiency, it can be fixed without relying on a certain company.
This would be the case if a certain company didn't own the patents that allowed these optimizations.
You could get something like this by binding a key to the window-shade function of your wm. Granted the window would go completely transparent but probably quicker than minimizing/maximizing.
The overlapping window paradigm makes the user's desktop a mess.
Thats perfectly fine with me, my real desktop is a mess too and I wouldn't have it any other way.
When I'm done or want to pause work on something I leave it open and just put another window on top of it slightly offset. This only wastes virtual screen space when I pan over to the center of the new window.
Too much stuff? New workspace! Wouldn't you love to have that on your real desktop?
Having 5x21" displays with a slightly larger virtual resolution than physical helps too but I started this using 1 15" display a while back. Now days big monitors aren't as expensive as you think if you're willing to muck around enough with old fixed frequency workstation monitors.
You've got a good point, it's easy enough to spoof network traffic outside the "black box" however. I doubt any of it would be admissible, if not easily discredited.
WINE stands for Wine Is Not an Emulator. It implements native code to the function calls present in the Windows DLL's. An emulator is something that duplicates the environment that an application runs in. WINE doesn't bother.

- Static IP is the default.
- They not only allow but encourage running servers. They're even reasonable about secondary DNS and MX pricing.
- Free reverse lookup changes.
- Encourage sharing your connection.
- Don't block ports.
- Provide NTP services on all their local POPs
- Heck they even host game servers on the local POPs
I have no affiliation with Speakeasy other than being a more than satisfied customer. Go check out dslreports.com.Yes, because its 3:30 am and theres an infomercial on the main {hist,dsc,tlc} chans and the secondaries have actual content.

1. Buy Microsoft products
2. Exploit MS security holes
3. Short MSFT
4. Disclose information about the break-in
5. Profit!
Actually they did almost 30 years ago.
In 1975 Apollo 18 and Soviet Soyuz 19. This was the the last manned American space mission before the first shuttle flight.
ntp.org. Did you even look? There are plenty of gps recievers capable of providing a pps signal to ntpd.

If your browser crashes on java or javascript code its a bug in your browser, regardless of bugs in the applet or javascript.

I'm quite serious, try it sometime.
India might be in a position to do that if it weren't for the massive brain-drain they are suffering due to open immigration.
Would you care to elaborate on how and why open immigration contributes to "brain-drain"?

And when they seperate, what would hold the Internet/Application company from charging for Internet Explorer?
If Dell loaded Netscape onto your new desktop, would you go and buy IE?

It's not an issue for /. text boxes really. If you need an html spell checker however, aspell's sgml mode does a pretty good job.
Slashdot has been having a lot of spelling errors lately...
You're right, what's so hard about ispell -a?

Fossett has ignored a major problem with his trip. As wealthy as he is, he doesn't have the resources that are required for this trip.
Think NASCAR balloons.
More likely it to show that the windows were up.
