The $150M was a purchase by MS of non-voting AAPL stock. The out-of-court settlement for stealing QT code was also "undisclosed", but thought to be several times the $150M.
I don't know how you can say Python isn't all that great at write-once run-anywhere (by the way, trademarked by Sun). I have quite a bit of Python code I run without changes on Linux, Windows, and Mac.
He didn't say anything about Christians. He said ORGANIZED religion (of whatever sect) is a crutch for week-minded people. But he didn't say: "organized Christian religion"
This processor, if it actually existed, would be much faster than Merced (if it actually existed), Intel's first cut of IA64. Or did you think because Merced was 64-bit it would be faster than any 32-bit processor?
The bad thing about this is they pushed it off into 2000, when we all know civilization is going to come to an end;-)
I just hope that they don't show up in court after all the delays and say that it's now irrelevant. This thing has dragged on for so long.. On the other hand, the anti-trust trial should be over then, so Caldera should additional ammo
Today, we're going to talk about tribunals, and we're going to talk about damages for unjustified firing. You admit you were contemplating suicide before the tribunal, your boss gets his ass kicked, and you get $100K or so in compensation.
Then, is time to find another job. Jobs aren't exactly scarce in the US at the moment...
Except that the guy's in England, they have "loser pays", he loses and has to pay the company's legal costs (they're not so lawyer-happy over there, and he's less likely to win that lawsuit over there anyway).
I object to your characterization of the British, but you did bring up an interesting point.
How difficult is it to manipulate a digital image?
When the manipulation of photographic evidence is within the reach of everyone (as it is now), how much credence should we place in it? It seems to me that as of this moment the standard should be that the camera DOES lie, and we should not accept it as a sole source of evidence in any (court) case.
In a transparent society, there is more truth than in our own society, where we never know the facts for sure.
Why do you think this, when a group with sufficient resources could churn out a tidal wave of disinformation? How can you differentiate truth from multiple sources of lies which seem to corroborate each other?
Unfortunately, you probably can't make these available to everybody in real time, because then the criminals themselves would be the prime viewers -- "Oh look, there's a cop car following me!"
This has always been the excuse used to withhold information from the public: criminals, communists, some bad guys might misuse the information. Therefore we'll tell noone.

..and as far as I know, they can't be negative ;-)

Now, that didn't take long, did it?
Yes, Apple is working on [Alti-Vec/Velocity Engine/Mktg Name of the month] enhancements to GCC. That is the compiler they are using for MacOSX.

or is that Itanium?
because he directly intervened and ordered that things should be set right.

Few = 7
Countries = Iran, Iraq, Libya, Syria,Sudan, North Korea and Cuba.
We will know we are f'ed when the FBI's director is a member of the joint chiefs of staff.
Or when the president is the head of the CIA..No, wait, that already happened.

How about:
theString.removeNewlines()
or
theString removeNewlines.
There's more than one way to skin a fish in a barrel.
No one-liners.

Sure, you can! Just use semicolons to separate statements and lambda. Then you end up with something as unreadable as the average Perl script
Get them at Macresq
but not the current release 8.5. They probably run MacOSX Server, as well. Neither of these is supported, though :-(

Maybe Intel should have named their processors after elements.
;-)
They did that! Xenon. No, wait.. it's Xeon.. never mind
I agree. Personal privacy needs to be fought for. Govmt's past behavior tells us THEY need to watched, carefully.
Let him be the first...
I didn't think so...

did you know that the poison gas used by nazis in concentration camps was made by Volkswagen?
Actually, it was I.G. Farben, a consortium of German chemical companies which, I believe includes the present day BASF.
