Okay... this is yet more support for Open Source that makes sense. Actually the only reason I say that is because people need to see what's going on in the code when they are using a package that is going to deal "sensitive" data or server monitoring. Good Choice...
wow... okay RSA in javascript. JavaScript is non-standard across browser platforms, buggy as hell, and now add the complexity of encryption? I beet read that closer??
man... I don't know anybody that's going to this either. I think that its just a matter of the internet catching the new product release fire. You can check thing out way before the actual show nowadays, and their is plenty of product info on the net without the crowds.
to infinity and beyond. Okay, so people have like been there and done that? But, what's definately cool about this that this can begin a cold war space race between India and Pakistan. That way America can look back at what happened to the Soviet Union and reflect on what's going to happen in the Indus Valley.
Also, big money in launching satellites. Kazikstan(sp?) might want to start getting worried as well.
"a Federal Appeals Court has struck down COPA (The Children's Online Protection Act)."
Okay, so US children are wards of the state until the are no longer minors. So, wouldn't the government be fearing for the protection of their children or something. I don't agree with censorship, it just seems kind of weird that children have no 'real' rights, yet they are such a big legal topic (whether its COPA or Elian Gonzalez).
Hey, whats up with this brand new technology... digital? Since Star Wars is being shot digital, and the characters are starting to be digitally developed, is the Academy going to let them get an Award?! Seems only fair, right?! I mean since digital flicks that are webcast aren't elegible right.
This is probably not some plot by the other chip manufacturers. It all comes down to sales channels and building up a market. Once there is a great demand, it is difficult for companies not flock to a product. This is basically what happened with Linux. The demand was there, and companies starting losing sales because they didn't have the OS. I'm sure the same thing will happen with TransMeta chips.
The interesting thing is that with electronic documents, they probably won't have to give you anything on paper, per se. do that open things up to changing warranties?
Okay. So, now we have AOL/Time Warner jumping in bed, you can see that ever major provider can see the future. Cisco is going full force telephony with the IP Phones they're going to release in a few months. That means that the battle is on, and everyone is going to want to merger to pool resources in the tought battle ahead. - enter the DOJ
Hey, we want to become all powerful, err... keep people from getting screwed.
it may be that there are great advantages, but completely changing a protocol that has been the main-stay for so long is difficult, if not impossible! kick some CAD
one of my former professor at UCSB helped start google, and I was going to work at Inktomi. After having seen both from a very scruntous level, I believe that Yahoo is probably doing the right thing! Key difference: the engines relevancy. Inktomi's engine is probably a better distributed system, however, in my opinion google better understands language and interface.
well, be prepared for the devil of details! Memory Expanders in hw are cool, but there must still be the hidden gotchas, like zipping a zip makes the file larger not smaller. Not to mention overhead, with additional operations needing to be executed this ram surely can't be faster. Though, I bet its faster than swap.;)
Hey, you know I bet Sun is just shaking in their boots... yeah right. The biggest problem Microsoft has is defining any of these kind of standards right now it the same problem they had with Visual J++ and Visual C++. They are so Windows-centric that they forget about the importance of portability. Like MFC, and half the other shit they make which ends up stangling a developer to a particular platform. There's a reason Java will remain popular, and that's Sun's devotion to portability and stability.
This is greatly disturbing... it gets right back to an organization spearheading a (join us, or we're gonna screw you) ultimatum to the rest of the net! I mean we all know how many lost sales Napster is supposed causing. Wooo... the evil corporation?!
This will only slow down production... I'm sure they realize that. That will increase prices in itself, then when they add a licensing fee on top of that, they hope few will notice. Isn't this a monolopoly of the SDRAM market?

anybody see this wired article. Appearantly people just aren't going to PC EXPO or COMDEX like they used to! Must be the lack of open source. ;)
