by golly, it almost looks pretty damn decent!
I haven't looked at the IE ADM template in a Long time, but the chrome template does have a proxy server template with some basic controls. There look to be limits compared to IE, but...
I think Google might actually be getting it. "I'll leave it to the knowledgeable GP admin to do a proper template comparison of those properties that matter to your particular PHB."
And just FYI. I personally use Chrome everywhere. But for Corporate use, I can see a lot of PHB angst even with this version of the Chrome ADM template.
Google, please do keep up the good work...
NOTE: I didn't actually download the template and test it out in a domain, so YMMV.
Overall, this is quite impressive for Google to be "assimilating the Borg"
I'm calling bull on your bull. Look up the stats for grand jury duty.
They don't happen often, but if you're lucky enough to get picked for one, it can go months.
Besides, it's not the average that's the problem. It's the high end of the range where you get into trouble.
I must agree with the parent. nHibernate has allowed me to save countless hours writing CRUD. Using FluentnHibernate helped even more. Was there a learning curve for both of these? You bet your ass there was. Was it worth it? hell yes. I use nHibernate in every project I can. Was the learning curve shorter than just writing all the crud? I don't think so. But no one should expect miracles from their first nHibernate implementation. You'll see some benefits, but the big benefits will probably come in on your third implementation.
Probably just like the way it works when you learn other new technologies. Amazing, isn't it?
Also, I saw a comment up above about efficiency. Unless you write all your SQL as
select server.db.table.column1, server.db.table.column2, (etc) from server.db (etc etc fully qualifying everything )
nHibernate is MORE efficient and faster than you and your stored procs are. ( Not to say that SPs should never be used. As usual, every tech has its appropriate place.)
Sure, you can be anal and write sql that way, but who actually does that consistently?
Just my opinion that nHibernate is definitely worth it, and not as bad as others have indicated.
Yeah, let's start with:
1. Vista was considered to be crap. EVERYBODY was saying it, the NYT, CNN, everybody. I never messed with it a lot but the one machine I put the RC on worked just fine. Sluggish though and it was an Athlon64. But regardless of fact, perception is everything once a meme sets in and Vista == suck was accepted wisdom.
Um, wrong.
There were a lot of people, myself included, who had a great time with Vista.
Was it the best ever? Probably not, but that would be standard fare for a fanboi, wouldn't it?
I ran Vista on a new home build since I built it. No issues. None.
Your Point 1 is anti marketing bullcrap.
So, Not bothering to read the rest of your bull.
Have a nice day.
Go back to playing with your little linux. Enjoy yourself and just stay there. We won't miss you.
OK, so the wife and I did this last year.
Here are the actual costs and what we did.
Had a new panel put in, 200 amps, to replace the original 100 amp panel, in the garage. Service line from the roof to the panel had to be replaced also, by the electrician. Wires from street were OK.
Secondary panel installed next to primary. about 100 amps in it, but we can put more into it if need be. Everything but the Central AC runs out of here.
Dual throw 100 amp breakers installed in secondary, such that turning one of them on turns the other one off. Not sure if this is a "manual transfer switch" or if it's called something else. It's basically a housing that holds a metal bar. The metal bar prevents both breakers in the switch from being on at the same time. Pretty darned cheap IIRC. Male generator plug installed near a window near the secondary panel, that feeds into it.
I roll the gen outside the garage, after manually opening the garage door, plug everything in, start it, turn off all secondary breakers, turn on the juice from the generator, then turn on each breaker.
Sears 5500 watt generator. Standalone ranch, I forget how many Sq Ft. House is not big, not tiny either.
$1200 for the entire job.
Everything in the house but the central air is hooked up. Microwave, fridge, deep freezer, furnace and water pump all run fine.
Expect to go through 10 gallons of gas a day, and to have power for 16 hours. 15 gallons per day if you want 24 hours of power.
I keep 2 5 gal cans with the special tips that only allow gas to flow out if you hook the special tip onto the rim of the gas tank and press down. Keeping gas off the hot muffler is paramount when re-filling.
Get a $25 gasoline hand pump at sears or a 50 or 100 gallon lockable gas tank for your pickup from a farm supply catalog if you don't want to go on a gas run every day.
Our power goes out twice a year for a day or 4.
If you bother doing this, do it right. Don't dick with death cords or bother plugging / unplugging.
The generator runs at full throttle whether you have it loaded or not. I doubt that the runtime would be significantly extended to make it worth unplugging large appliances.
Oh, BTW, we tried the generator and extension cords BS. When it's cold, you really do NOT want a window open, which has to be kinda near the generator, letting in cold carbon monoxide as the hot air in your house goes up into the attic.
Just go for the electrician and get the secondary panel solution, or go bigger / fully automated.

All we have to do is put all the leftover radioactive crap on the moon. What could possibly go wrong?
(Slightly) More detail can be found at http://jap.aip.org/resource/1/japiau/v109/i1/p014306_s1?isAuthorized=no#tabs_1_113_1274104113_tab1 Cookies and subscription required for the full article, but they mention "carbon steel" as the "steel". So, I'm guessing they are comparing it to standard Home Depot, untreated, general grade crap mild steel. So, yep, marketing/fundraising talk.

"biggest idiot in fuckheadland" Godfuckingdamnit, and I just used up all my mod points this AM. Thank you for the new phrase!

Dude, seriously, bail, take the pain, find someone else. I did. It was definitely worth it. Of course, I still don't get enough sex...
Why do I always NOT have mod points when I really need them? +1 Fucking HooRah! Go get em...

Hmm, IBM Publication GX20-1850-7 would help a little for the 370. ( Or the latest revision.... ) There must be a similar reference for the 360, no?
