HP's reticence to return to the
engineering strength that founded
the company is going to kill the company.
Fiorina is screwing up one of the
worlds greatest companies.
Here's how: at HP, engineering used to innovate products, driven by heavy r+d budgets at hp - marketing would then sell them using branding.
HP would be first in a market, and make
a ton of money (case in point: printers).
Then everyone would copy them, the market
would saturate but by then they moved on
(cf. scanners, etc.).
Under Fiorina, engineering is organized
to take requirements from marketing. Marketing
copies whats going on in the market, and
then returns it to be spec'd. Engineering
knows they are behind the curve, morale tanks -
and the product is two cycles behind competition.
Now Fiorina thinks she will save HP by buying
up an unprofitable company.
I'm better off here than I ever would have been
at HP.
The news media are a poor substitute for
internet media. There never was a "new economy"
and there never will be "control of the internet".
These terrorists better be careful or
they will be voted out by the tribal
council and lose their MEDIA COVERAGE.
I think the protocol for alot of stuff out
there is called S-Link. The sequences
are basically, like - Control-C-Control-F-400
like that to get to track 400 on a cd player,
for instance. Sendkeys is kind of a hack
- you will want to use escaped literals so
be careful. Has anyone got something like this
going with a cellphone? I am +always+ carrying
around a cellphone..:-) We
need that Nokia source code!
Why not make it a government issue?
Governments are supposed to help uphold
quality of life, represent large groups of
people, etc. and we the people have passed a
law against spam. search thomas.loc.gov and you
will find it. As a 14 year (thats right) vet
of the net I can tell you democracy has arisen
several times before, and it will on this issue.
Any takers ? I'll give 4 to 1 odds Amazon doesnt
get whipped back by the USPTO, the FED and the state of Oregon;-)...
yeah the funny thing is, if they
had one of those scanners like gattaca did -
the counterfeiters could find out which athlete,
snag some dandruff, and beat the system
with their own ink. Guanine Adenine Thymine Thymine Adenine Cytosin Adenine - Oh m' darling ADENINE!! You are lost and gone forever..:-)
I remember seeing this African
witch doctor conduct trials in African villages -
they find the truth by stabbing you , if you scream, you feel pain, the gods are punishing you and you are guilty. The cool thing is, the witch doctor looks first into your eye before he stabs you - he reads your body language and can figure
out from the scan whether or not you are a liar.
The stab is just to distract you from what he
is doing.
I am not so sure how effective all of these scanners are.. but.. an ounce of discipline
is worth a pound of cure.:-)
UIM/X was a tool that was around in 1991 and did a good job - it was a development/ ide tool
but I remember the guys that were playing with it were also connecting to a SQL database and somehow
I think that might be a possible tool for you
that parallels what you are doing. INGRES was
still around then tool, and sybase - they all
had these kind of connectivity widgets. Good luck.
This is an obvious PR ploy constructed by Adobe -
it is cynical in the sense that it seeks
to undermine the USPTO hegemony on the protection
of our intellectual rights to valid patentable
items (such as, say - a new type of handheld device that runs on solar power) at the expense
of a vaudeville approach to get others to
comment on their actions. Please be aware
that I am recommending we all really begin
to ignore this stuff. Its stupid.
This is like that 50's film where they show that triangle of physical health, social health and mental health and have the jock and the nerd get crushed by one side. American society is fragmented. Now is the time to really go for it. If anyone has an app that connects people really well, this is the time. Somehow, the internet hasn't done it by itself..
The url for the experiment is actually here. IMHO machining a perfect sphere is very difficult. This experiment will be all about how clean that sphere really is. Good luck guys!
Ok, basically TCP packets drop all the time and computers put them back together. You are trained from birth to pick up even the smallest flaw, and you will find the conversation annoying - since the application stream is impossible to detect for content based reassembly. We are doing real time, perfect quality sound transmission every morning when we say hello to ea. other. VoIP on IPv4 - sounds like junk no matter how technically perfect... at least right now.
The future, as we know it - will likely throw back to older times where we are a more closely knit and socially alive society. Technologically speaking we will have, by necessity, dealt with the disappearance of oil reserves by 2050, the outbreak of major virus plagues by 2010, and one day, a comet. The net will go on, however, even without us. The net is likely the next form of life we will inhabit. That is a much longer view. I will stick to cellphones: good resources are available at Barnes and Nobles for this kind of thing.
just make sure it works right, the first time. The big barrier to your product is the voice recognition. If it doesnt work or if people have to train it they +will+ get annoyed and +will not+ pay +anything+ for it. Its not hard to do all the MP3 functions with simple keys. (you are not asking them to write a book, after all) - But I think your product +does+ have a market if the voice rec. +does+ work.
3G Networks in Japan likely - the American networks arent so well off. The FCC hosed up the American Wireless Network Landscape by issuing all different kinds of licenses to all different kinds of carriers and now we have all different kinds of networks. Japan will see this thing before us. Guaranteed.
I think I might get lost in the crowd but I definitely believe coke us should pack its bags and drop this one. The more we get into fights about domain names, the less domain names actually get registered. As a partner of Net Sol, we oppose that state of affairs. Why doesn't Coke just register ducoca.ch instead?
I remember talking to a guy who didn't buy my 76 mazda from me. They were expecting to release it in a year. I think the problem is that you are going to be near 100$ a port for the switch costs but if they can make a nice switch.... oh yeah! I'm all over this!!
But as a pres. of a software company I won't say that it doesn't go on. I think the practice quashes originality. It is too distracting to constantly keep up with other people, kind of like playing golf by watching someone elses game instead of your own..
All we have to do to see nntp come back is find a way to get spam out of the newsgroups. Right now, it is choked with ridiculous, pointless and damaging advertisement. The fundamental metaphor corporate america is utilizing on the net is extremely, dangerously, flawed. Patience.
All we have to do to see nntp come back is find a way to get spam out of the newsgroups. Right now, it is choked with ridiculous, pointless and damaging advertisement. The newbies are pretty bad, too. A little like trying to have a conversation with a retarded person.. Slashdot reminds me of what bbs and nntp used to be like, but they still play whack a mole with news articles just like everyone else.
You don't need IRC to have a bot working. A company called Big Science has INMHO already figured this thing out. They call them KLONES. If you have some time to kill, talk to Eve. She can tell you about it.
So what? you still get a speedup from not having silicon implemented branching instruction sets. The software can do a better job and generate no heat in the process as well. Crusoe Assembly makes little sense. It would be like trying to write a book using ones and zeros.

This will doom XML. Everyone thinks that they can define a standard on the internet but it's already killed SGML.

does this mean we take a performance hit?
