Most are missing the point of MS supporting this. It's all about the $ in licensing fees of VMware vs. Microsoft. Windows shops pay for windows licenses and always will have to if they want/have to use the OS. Microsoft recognizes that a lot of shops are probably mixed and are attempting to reverse the pay for VMware and drop Windows path that a lot of people are taking. They are offering the MS alternative, use Hyper-V and get Linux support without a VMware tax.
Of course, others would say, its like pay MS and VMware tax and yes that is true as well.
But in the end, for a business time is money. Being able to have an army of technical people motivated by real money supporting a product versus all us wonderful/. users telling them how they are doing it wrong in the world on Linux is what makes the world go round.
How long until the classic IPV4 internet is looked upon with the likes of AOL or Compuserv? All the control, gatekeepers will force freedom to migrate to V6. It'll be the wild west of the internet all over again.
So, this is how I roughly understand the whole carbon credits thing is supposed to work. Am I right here? And does the real-world application work like this model, or is it rife with corruption, bureaucracy, and an inability to accomplish its stated goals like every other government project? Have their been any studies on the effectiveness of such a system?
The certification of carbon credits is taken very seriously and there are, according to the UNFCCC Parties & Observers, "Over 1,297 NGOs and 83 IGOs are admitted as observers." Further, carbon emissions especially from manufactures is fairly standard science. Fuel input + burn rate = carbon emission rate. The statistics are held not only on the scrubbers but the input valves as well. Also, it is reported by the fuel companies how much fuel they are selling and where it is being passed off. All this put together, along with thousands of NGO interests, allows the market to have enough watchdogs to prevent serious abuse.
The key to carbon credits in the US is that you need a verification and certification process behind the carbon creditors. Again, NGO and even government regulation can go a long way towards certifying and making the market more transparent.
Another thought here is that the local populace would be up in arms if our state was secretly communicating or making deals with others without the voters knowledge. Transparency is very important to people on a local level is seems but make it national and it's, "oh I don't have time to worry or they know what they are doing." Put it in a local scene and people would be demanding resignation.
You run the risk of the ones you do business with disassociating themselves with you. Perhaps a little FBI file will open up. Either way, until they find you doing something else wrong you are fine. Only those who are allowed access to classified documents can know what true classified documents are and only they can leak illegally obtain the documents. If documents are found on a street and someone finds them, it is not they who have broken the law but those who left the documents there. If they are given to you, it is not your fault but it of that person that gave them to you. IANAL but having wikileaks isn't going to end you up in court.
I saw a editorial cartoon today with santa looking at the computer, fuming. The caption said, "Wikileaks released his entire 'naught and nice' list..." R. MeKee.
If you compare their IOPS price to a Fibre drive you will find that AOL got quite the bargain.
250,000 IOPS / 180 IOPS = 1388 10kRPM Fibre drives * $2,000 a pop - $1M = $1.7M savings.
The NSA announced today that they are offering secured online backup for all Blackberry users. RIMM responded saying they were surprised how quickly the DNS poison spread but wish the NSA well in their user friendly backup service. Many Middle East governments are also now offering the easy secure backup service as well.
I've experienced these issues and it isn't the game, it's your PC. Run Autoruns and see what is interrupting your game. Kill off those extra services. Then experience TF2 smoothly as everyone else does.
The iPad and alike competitors should bet on business communication suites. One which has video conferencing, document presentation and sharing collaboration tools will be the most successful. I would like it if I could do an impromptu video conference meeting with anyone remotely as face to face interaction leads to better understanding and communication. Take the meeting collaboration space, have the pads chirp to each other forming a meeting share where they can present documents live and collaborate in the editing. Combine the video conference and meeting function together so remote operations are included just like person to person. You could make a remote desktop viewer that shares to everyone else. Give us a headphone and mic jack for privacy as well. Make a scrum board that has tasks that are passed seamlessly through the pads and updated live remote and interoffice. That is a sweet pad.
Wubi is pretty nice in that it installs a file onto your windows partition. Once they are finished, uninstall and all is better. Could be a good middle ground.

Another consideration is to run something like ESXi and let the students just terminal into little VMs. They could use the client to have console access. Slap that onto an NFS disk running lessfs to save disk space.
I've watched the video and I'm sorry but I thought those were weapons in their hands as well. RPG and AK's in a zone that you are trying to clear out? Check. Light 'em up. The guys shooting were wrong about the weapons and that sucks. The real issue here is the verification of danger.
Of course when you unleash a force to stop all other potential force, people are going end up killing each other.
Enthusiasm is crucial however, I would say you will work an 80 hour week. Just let them know that in crunch time you will rise to the occasion but you should never be putting in way more than is expected unless you are directly paid for those hours. Have a life and enjoy the lack of responsibility when you land the job. It'll pile up soon enough as you prove yourself.
As for advice to get the job, my experience was that you have to be open to move. My experience was basically searching local job ads in the areas I was interested in and found those which I had to contact directly. Take initiative to know about the company you are looking for and then be confident in your ability once you hit the meeting. You are in the situation of not being too tied down so don't make hard core concessions such as 80 hours weeks right off the bat, look for the good deal and find something you love to do.
Oh and make sure your resume is is triple checked for spelling and grammatical mistakes, something I will not do on this post
Bigbrother, snoop, and even Stasi perhaps but KGB, Gestapo? No, as tempting as it may be, the FBI is not rounding up all IT people and sending them to the showers....

You act like they actually pay for their copies of Windows. Iran is reported to state encouraged piracy.
I for one welcome our non-crashing on redeploy overlord. Lots of memory leaks due to deploying and removing individual webapps are now fixed.
this is like saying the universe is broken, lets fork it.

Not picking on you specifically, but pay pal is so shady they are like the godaddy of internet paying. The freeze was bound to happen.

Only on Slashdot would this be modded insightful instead of funny.
Umm, I think they already told us, search for The anatomy of a large-scale hypertextual Web search engine

Get that data out of there! If it isn't your system and the data shouldn't be there, no problem scanning for the bad stuff.
