So in an already overcrowded arena Intel looked at the writing on the wall and saw they were just wasting good money on a dead end.
But that's the thing, they haven't seen the writing on the wall and are persisting to try it. The people they partnered with saw it and fleed but Intel continue to flog the dead horse, hence this new-but-old project now
Except it's happened so often now with this 'family' of distributions, each time effectively killing the project it was merged with, and always either just before or just after a single tangible product is actually released and before it has a chance to succeed. It's like duke nukem forever, except the game title changes every month and a new publisher/developer replaces an old one in an attempt to breathe life into the deadend sinkhole of a project. This 'intel mobile linux distribution' thing is a plague ensuring certain death:(
'GNU still needs an extension language'.. extension to what? Extension to GNU HURD, extension to the GNU compiler? I'm not sure what the context of this language is, and it seems incorrectly worded to me. If by 'GNU' the author means the GNU userland tools, then isn't C/C++ already the official 'extension' language of choice?
I never said *I* could do it. But information theory states they will have measureably and distinguishingly different entropies. Someone somewhere has a mathematical proof for it...
Obviously you haven't had a look on ebay for them since the rush.. They're selling for close to 400 in some cases, and people are bidding on them. I don't understand it either tbh.
Given the relatively high number of these previously-undetectable stars in just our local(ish) neighbourhood alone.. Might this explain the bulk of that 'missing matter' astronomers and physicists have been looking for?
But if you've done it before in another language and have gobs of experience behind you.. you can read that documentation in no time and make sense of it all very quickly and end up with a workable jury-rigged treeview in minutes at worst. The gotchas might still getchya from time-to-time but at least you'll know where to look and how to debug them. I've been hit by such things in many frameworks in many languages (WX, GTK+, Mason, CodeIgniter, RoR, Merb, Unity, Ogre3D, the list goes on and on and on) and even differing implementations of the same language (c#.net vs c# mono, ruby vs jruby, python 2.x vs 3). They've never been complete showstoppers or prevented me from completing projects or tackling unfamiliar languages and frameworks. Granted I'm only 31 not 35 or 40;)
A comp-sci lecturer once told me something that I think is very relevant to this discussion: A good programmer never blames his tools.
Letting people remove judges for purely political reasons shouldn't matter anywhere near as much in a true democracy as letting a judge have supreme power and be immune from ccountability
Then perhaps that's half the problem. If you can't replace a judge for being an idiot and letting frivolous cases go through once they obtain their position of power then something is obviously wrong with the system.. No one anywhere should ever be above reproach once they obtain a position of authority or power. No one.
If it's an 'issue for the states', then why does SA need NSW's vote to make a move on it for SA residents? Or vice versa? Why must all AGs vote on the issue even when there is already a *clear majority* voting in one direction enough to pass it, when it's not even a national issue?
See the problem is simply this: Bullshit. Bullshit everywhere. It's all nonsense no matter which way they swing it.
it's coddling the weak. If we let nature take it's course on the road then we will evolve the ability to not kill ourselves behind the wheel through natural selection. Then everyone will drive properly and we won't ever have accidents in the first place!
Not really. 'carrier grade' usually means proprietary, encumbered, designed to die outright so that the path of least resistance to fixing an issue is simple, quick physical replacement, and a management interface that would make even demoscene assembly language gurus confused and lost. Likewise consumer grade usually means cheap, no management interfaces (or not enough function within them), and designed to be rebooted every other day to avoid memory fragmentation and leaks. I usually aim for the middle ground or build it myself.

So, when is Manga Entertainment suing Bethesda for violating their trademark on 'Ninja Scroll' ?

'Shannon Entropy'. Although, it is hard to distinguish encrypted data from merely compressed data this way iirc

Dead tech that runs all the big business logic and demands a 120k~200k salary of it's technicians ;)
:)
Please give me more of THAT kind of dead tech
Even that it means 'ulcer' in Lithuanian? :P
If this were even remotely close to being true, I'd be out of a job right now. And I'm not, so it isn't. :)
Clearly this is an attempted troll post..

I wish I had mod points. +1 funny
Protesting by paying BART? I don't think this will work as well as you're expecting

Who the fuck is modding this OFF TOPIC shit up? This isn't a political debate. (nothing personal dgatwood :)
Really? I see nothing in this article that precludes stasis pods and wormholes!
A system of government where the citizens rule and are able to make such decisions as removing someone's title of judge for being an idiot
*accountability

If they're 'not doing it right', then that is cause.

What? 'Irregardless' is a perfectly comulent word.
