This is great, as we pollute, we get dumber, eventually we'll devolve back to hunter-gatherers and give earth a chance to heal. Then, when the pollution goes away, we'll get smarter again, and pollute again.
A vicious never ending cycle? Or the solution to pollution?
Just curious, but is there anything a corporation would gain from building their own distro from scratch? I can't think of anything they would gain from that over adding rpms to redhat or more debian packages to the debian distro.
I remember a WSJ article a month (2 months?) ago that talked about how people are leaving the "hard" sciences in favor of technology, and how in the future, the world is going to need less HTML programmers... That and the last ask/., where "JD" said he was going to college in two years but only wants a trade school runs along the same (and equally depressing) lines. Personally, I see the need for good developers, requirements analysts, design architects and the like are going to go up. But as new software becomes more of a scripting process (under a component based system) then the demand for mediocre programmers will go down. The worst thing that anyone can do is allow themselves to stagnate./ZL
If you were to plan your app carefully, you should be able to seperate out the core of the application from the environment specific portions. While you would have to write some code twice, in the end you would have a program that takes advantage of the functions and capabilities of both environments.
I can't believe the other post got moderated up to a +2 interesting! The terms have nothing to do with skin color, and certainly not a point system!
The reference to 1st, 2nd, 3rd world date back to a paper by a political geographer (whose name escapes me) he used 1st world to describe the "free nations", 2nd world to describe the USSR and it's children.
And 3rd world was used to describe the "Unaffiliated" countries.
Is it common practice to refer to someone who recieves an honorary Doctorate as Dr.? Or another way to put it, does an honorary Doctorate carry the same weight as a PHD earned through school?
In Windows NT, unless you have certain priveleges, there is NO WAY to get around this kind of a program, at the company I work at, they give everyone local administrator privileges, but you still cannot kill certain processes (like the virus scanner), and you cannot edit or view the registry of your workstation.
I'm a CS student at University of Illinois. Over here, you are generally expected to pick up new languages within 1-3 weeks, and are never explicitly taught one. CS courses are about theory, (data structures, algorithms, numerical methods, discrete mathematics, networking theory, etc..). In addition to this, we take all of the normal College of Engineering requirements, (phyics, calculus, etc...)
I am not at school to get a technical degree, I'm here for the B.S.E in Computer Science. I don't want my professors or classes wasting time on languages or "how to admin a machine". People need to realize the difference between a true Computer Science program, and a trade or technical program such as CIS.

Whether the Dr. Dre needs the money or not, people ARE stealing when they copy music they didn't buy.
But even so I don't see how suing is really going to work unless it instills fear in the vast majority of the users.

As great as wireless computing sounds, anyone know when it will get cheap enough for the rest of us to pick up?
Is it just me or isn't it getting a little two excessive?
64MB ram?
2 processors?
seems a little extreme doesn't it?
I have a feeling this game is gonna cost me another point on the GPA

Hope they brought enough people to push it back into orbit

So how will this affect Microsoft's Passport?

Yes, the dreamcast does run a _version_ of windows ce, and from what I understand the dreamcast comes with a modem...
So when will we see products that go the other way?

They would most likely use chips that run java as native code. I know sun has some, as does Rockwell.

You are missing the point, the emphasis is not on programming.

Mean = average score
median = most common score
So it is possible to have a mean of 4 and a median of zero, without negaitve scores.
