If you are looking for something small, clean and very easy to use - PTypes (http://www.melikyan.com/ptypes/doc/index.html) may do the trick.
It has classes for threads, sockets, i/o, shared libraries etc. It's also very easy to extend if some functionality is missing.
And it has zlib license, so you can do anything with it.
Disclaimer: I have nothing to do with the library development, just a user.
It does make sense for relatively long operations, e.g. if you are going to copy a few kilobytes of data and do some operation on them, it's not a problem to save those registers (usually 4 xmm registers - a full cache line). It's still going to be faster than using 32 or 64-bit operations.
And saving these registers on stack before a tight loop won't really go to memory, just to L1.
Linux kernel actually uses %%xmm regs in some places, look for example at the md driver.
The subject is quite stupid. What details? Probably an engineer with a thick accent told the HR manager something about 128 bit (maybe fs, maybe optimizations), and by the time it appeared on the website it went through several revisions each time by people with less and less understand of what they are writing. That's the corporate way of doing things.
Maybe they mean optimizing windows kernel using SSE2 instructions (xmm registers are 128-bit wide)? It improves performance of many memory transfers, and currently and makes a lot of sense in quite a lot of applications - even the kernel itself.
The unofficial beta builds of WM6.5 were available for all the major WM phones more than a year. They didn't look much different from what we see in this review.
Besides this interface doesn't matter much, people are still going to use interface add-ons on most WM phones (SPB mobile shell, TouchFlo3d, Samsung TouchWiz etc).
In short, no new information in this review. However, the announcements of the new phones (e.g. HTC Leo, Samsung i8000) are much more interesting.
Please read your first post that triggered my reaction: you claimed that there is no economy at all, everything relies on foreign aid. Now you softened your claims a bit, but still they are not true. Of course the economy would be worse, but not by that much. Your claims might have been true 30 years ago, but not now.
There are parasitic groups inside Israel that rely entirely on donations both from Israel and from abroad (most ultraorthodox Jews and a part of Israeli Arabs). But the rest of economy is sustainable without such aid (and I wouldn't mind if those groups would be forced to work).
I'm not going to argue about the reasons for the US military aid, that was not the point of this discussion.
A little clarification: the previous comment referred to the fact that you quoted "Israel to Get $30 Billion in Military Aid From U.S.", omitting the word decade. Very nice way to prove a point.
I used to have a15.4" Dell M65 with 1920x1200 resolution. In most cases you can make your fonts larger, and they simply look better because of all the extra resolution. Only a few (old applications) looked too small.
Majority of Jewish population in Israel is secular. And if you are born to Jewish parents, you can immigrate, regardless of your beliefs (e.g. only a few percent of more than 1 million russian immigrants are non-atheist).
However because of a political system called democracy, religious parties have ~20% representation in the parliament. It's not possible to form a coalition without them, so they are given too much power in a lot of matters, and marriage is one them. The workaround is simple - register your marriage abroad and the state recognizes it, even if it's a gay marriage. A lot of Jewish couples, too, prefer to go this route rather than dealing with rabbis.
That's simply not true. On Linux the text segments of shared libraries are shared between processes (there is a trick to create non-PIC non-shareable dynamic libraries on 32-bit x86, but it's rarely used).
I don't know about other platforms, but I wouldn't be surprised if they do something to share the memory as well.
"even the smallest person can change the course of the future."
Of course! Have you noticed Ahmadinejad's height? He is as tall as a hobbit, so they try to portray him as the savior of the world!
Not sure if his feet are hairy, though.
It isn't a secret in the EDA industry that VHDL gets much less developers attention than Verilog and SystemVerilog. In some products VHDL gets probably 1/5th time of Verilog and 1/20 of SystemVerilog (into which most resources are invested). Although the differences might be less striking in other fields, e.g. FPGA-related, it is still there.
This leads to lower performance, bugs going unfixed for quite long time, few new features etc. So my recommendation would be to go with the market leader - Verilog.
No, I replaced the default composite cables with better component ones. Almost no quality improvement after switching to 480p. The quality of most games is really hurting my eyes, everything looks very aliased (staircases instead of lines). Playing with sharpness on the TV doesn't help.
First, it's worse than any upscaling DVD or even most progressive scan DVDs.
Second, in Japan HDTV is more common than anywhere else (tens of millions subscribers), and free ISDB translations started in 2003. Once you are used to HDTV, it's hard to go back to SDTV.
Quality of the video output on Wii really sucks, it doesn't even have an HDMI output, and its component output is worse than any other piece of equipment I have.
How are they going to compete with other services, especially in Japan, where 1125i output is the norm for years?
Slashdot Mirror
It's 480x800 (WVGA), not 400x800. The same amazing display as in Samsung Omnia II (i8000), any LCD phone screen looks much worse (indoors at least).
And it has zlib license, so you can do anything with it.

Here, fixed it for myself.

30/10=3
3/200=1.5%
Learn to read, troll.

Your claim that Israel doesn't have an economy is nothing but troll. The US aid is 1-2% of the GDP and much much less than the defense budget.

That's bull$hit, I wonder why this troll wasn't moderated as such. Do some research yourself first, at least read the wikipedia article.

So it should be Ununobtainium (which is very close to the current name)

These things were mass-produced in Russia (and probably elsewhere) until very recently. Look here for an example.
Newsflash: Barrat has left Kazakhstan to do cultural learnings of the open space!
If you need anyone to tell you that it was a joke, you need to go back to being an ovum and pick a different sperm cell.

My Wii is connected to 50" plasma. I can't stand the quality, so it's mostly gathering dust now.
