Plus, it would be the first vehicle that travels underwater and flies.
There is a list of about 10-20 successful prototypes of such vehicles. One of them was actually tested in broad daylight in the middle of SF bay in the 80-ties.
They all have been heavily unsuccessful so far, but this makes them actually a fully viable idea.
In other words same problems as with modern aviation (most modern planes are incapable of flying with all of their engines shut). So the solution is well known - do not stop.
What's wrong with standartenfuhrer Jobz... I see nothing wrong. Why don't people get it that Apple is not the "think different" company. It is the "think of worse" company... And god save us from it becoming big.

MAPS vs. ORBS
·
· Score: 2
1. It is completely within above's own right to cut off Orbs from its customers. If you are not a customer no point to complain. 2. Above has a very "interesting" proprieatry routing practice and traffic engineering. It is vaguely described on above site. Go and read. 3. There have been numerous times when above has shot itself in the foot using 2. Check nanog archive for details. So: 1. There is no point on Orbs side to blame above for maliciousness when incompetence will suffice. It is quite possible that above is leaking routes not out of malice but due to their routing specifics. See 2,3 above.
2. Orbs are complete and utter idiots. Clueless as well. If someone starts blocking a open relay probing site this is not an indication of active spamming. Usually the opposite (see BUGTRAQ discussion from last Feb 1999 on mail address list collectors and Alan Cox's suggestions). Note that above actually uses the BGP form of RBL as well, not just mail relaying. And I am on above side here as there has been repeated cases when orbs have been actively used by spammers to seek and use open relays.
3. It is completely within telecom-newzeland's rights or UU-nets rights (as the upstream ISPs of ORBs) to bust above's arse. And if orbs had a clue they would have done the steps necessary for this long ago.
The company you impply did not invent even the paperclip. It was outsourced. Outside of the US for the matter. The question is that the guys who wrote it do not even need an NDA. They know that they will get lynched on the spot if their friends, collegues and customers understand that they have done it. And actually the library is obviously a non-MS software.
Guess why... It does not blow up as often as the standard Redmond B.S.
Is there a way to loop in TeX without using recursion?
Yes,see exampels for the output routines in the TeXbook. Would you really want a turing-complete language that can read and write files to be the primary language of the WWW?
Absolutely not. Actually, god save us from TeX becoming more popular with the braindamaged/brainwashed/lobotomized part of the population. It is bad enough with Word Viruses as it is. And TeX capabilities for code obfuscation and penetrating scanning are way beyond VBA or word basic
Who says that robots.txt is supposed to be robots.txt?
So the article on yahoo to a certain extent is genuinenly stupid as the architecture for selective metabrowsing is also in place today and I even know people who use it. Not every one is obliged to love lycos ya know;-). Some people do not like to "go fetch".
It is up to the liquidators to decide. If they do fall over of course.
IMHO they deserve to fall over. This ugly bulshit of releasing a barely working wine linked build and calling it a full productivity environment deserves to die. It is a technological downward spiral. From bad to worse:
WP 7 and earlier. RPC based IPC. More than user on one machine. All things in place for future network exetnsions. True Unix application.
WP 8. Named Pipe based IPC in a fixed directory. Single user and gaping security hole (creation follows symlinks). Still true Unix application.
WP 2000. Wine linked BS. No IPC expansion capabilties. Windows app bodged to run on Unix.
In btw: Soffice since version 3 is going down the same route. From bad to worse.
You missed the point. Jamie just took one case where he had strong moral grounds and used it as a counteroffence. He could use Silver Stallone movies, gun ownership, animal testing or whatever else.
It was a frankenstein at least till 96 when the last SCO I had to deal with met its demise. And it was obliged by a crosslicensing deal with MicroS..t to be a frakenstein till last year. So I guess it did not change a hell of a lot. Anyway the average number of more than 100 required hotfixes per release says something...
If the government has a technique that can decrease crime, prevent terrorism, and save lives, how can you be opposed to it?
Pol Pot and Yeng Sari had such highly successful techniques. Cambodja virtually had no crime. It also did not have any literate cittizens left and had 25% of the population killed.
Hitler also had such technique. The crime level in Nazi germany was very low. There were almost no pedofils left in Germany for example. So if broght now Hitler Germany would not have had any "child p0rn" problems as there were no consumers for "chid p0rn" left. He simply treated them like the jews. Actually jews had higher survival rates than pedos and gay in Nazi Germany and Stalin USSR.
Stalin and his followers also had such technique. The crime level in the ex-eastern block was never asv low as in nazi germany but it was mostly petty crime. Not shooting in the streets like now.
Are all these compelling reasons for us to restore anyone of these? Clone them maybe?
You are historically correct. Internet was not made for voice. For modern netrworks you are practically correct.
It is a very interesting situation:
Namely, most core networks are not heavily congested now. Reason for this is that at the packet rates in question routers have almost no buffering and even the smallest congestion leads to very ugly packet loss and users waving SLAs at the ISP. So, theoretically, there is no problem to run small scale voice over most cores now as it does not encounter congestion and the original design considerations you have layed out are void.
At the same time as we all know end-user voice is a problem. But the reason for this is usually lack of QoS at the end-user entry/exit or the last (small/medium/dialup ISP) tier before the end-user. If this bottleneck is solved which is not a problem for a properly setup office networks and VPNs (if the admin has a lot of clue) you can happily run office to office voice as well as home to office voice.
A typical 33.6 has 130ms latency and is half duplex. Telephony over it sucks. But over a 64k ISDN or similar it gets to be really interesting.
Problem here is that the bandwidth is getting cheap and interest in compressed codecs in service providers is decreasing. So providers are getting less and less interested in incoming IP calls. They look mostly towards telco termination and even exchanges.
Also in order to use end user IP telephony especially at the office level you need good QoS on the endpoints so a download does not blow away the voice. This is something that is not common in most end user/small office setups.
So end-user VOIP and compressed codecs are actually a subject of interest for very well maintained office to office VPNs with QoS which are rare. In the other cases they are usually a cause for yet another disappointment;-(
1. There is a "lack of there of" 2. The few that are supposedly new are well known 3. So everyone is taking a piss at the PRdrones and the "YetAnotherMeaninglessPieceofPRBulshit" with no info in it. And at the logo of course. When you start being a laughing stock you usually go a very long way... It is almost as bad the new SGI logo. And I bet it is inroduced for the same purpose - to be rendered easier as MS Word clipart. If you do not understand what I mean try to make the old SGI logo in the form of a windows metafile suitable for clipshit, err... sorry clipart.
Noone cares about the license of an ERP usually. What is interesting to the customer is interfacing it with existing (mostly financial) apps and the accompanying support contract. And the licence does not change this. So a change in licence will not do a thing. Besides PR of course...
Variations in the hunan genome has been subject of very intensive research since end of 1980-ties. The so called Restriction Length Polymorphisms have been used as a primary method for genetic diagnostics since and they are nothing but a manifestation of these variations. The exact differences are also usually well known. The data there can be correlated and joined with HGP. There will be need for additional research but no real caveat here. It is not as bad as you describe.
RDRAM, SDRAM, DDRAM are not the only technologies around. There is a whole lot os technoilogies circulating around Big Blue, Big Q and other not so big companies for their Big and not so Big boxen. For now these technologies cost Big Bucks. But this is for now as they are not manufactured in big enough quantities.
Rambus with its "milk the cow with a vacuum pump until it bleeds" behaviour is asking for these technologies to be brought to the PC market. And it does not have any IP there whatsoever.
The only problem is that this will take time and cost money that will come out of the consumer pocket. And all this because Hitachi did the favourite "japanese corp versus american in court" and chikened out. I hate japs when they do this. It had a perfect case (IANAL) with a list of violations of all kinds of regulations by RAMBUS.
There is some hope, though as price-fixing is a serious offence in EU for example and the EU comission has been amazingly fast recently on quite a lot of cases (like MCI/Sprint merger).
I do not intend to avoid Carma Whore allegations as I get blasted on casual basis anyway to make sure that my carma is down with no artificial assistance.
So summary (from all threads):
1. Al is not one of the most pleasant characters to deal with. As he himself says: "I am a BOFH, not a nurse". But he is usually right. And if you subtract the inflammatory tone so typical for *nix dicsussions he is right here as well. That is besides the fact that Al was not the only accused and at one point Reiser was throwing accusations left right and center.
2. I like what Hans does, but:
2.1. There is no common journaling API so his work, xfs work and ext3fs work cannot be converged. Especially at user space level. And this API is nowhere close.
2.2. As per Hans statement he has more than 6 more additional months of roadmap for features and cannot freeze. Kernel is in feature freeze right now. So ReiserFS should not go in. So if there is a problem with ReiserFS conforming to the current VFS layer then ReiserFS should be adapted.
2.3. There has been a flurry of new VFS level features. bind mounting, multiple mounting of partitions, devfs related stuff, etc. IMHO: these all have some very serious security implications that must be flushed all the way to userland. Before that VFS should not be modified at anyone's whim. That is besides the fact that kernel is in freeze and the discussion on modifications is moot.
3. Overall: IMHO in this case Hans p... is shorter. That is besides the fact that it is shorter by definition due to his licencing practices.

No it is not. Though not coming from UTA it is still from the same continent. So it is likely to be true.

No, it is just Japanese companies not wanting to go into a US court. They always do this. Thanks god US legal system is not precedent based.
