It was probably the 604 because while it was the first computer it was not the first machine they made. They were selling punch card things which had model numbers.
Sort of like the first boeing Jet was the 707, they had made a lot of airplanes like the 247 and the B-17/B-29 before that.
I've found code reviews to be very helpful. I've learned a hell of a lot from having someone go over my code and challenge me on it. And for doing it to someone elses. At most of the places where I have worked we have had a lot of smart people, you might as well learn from them.
They have a right to change it, unless you have a contract that says they won't. If you link to an image on someone elses site and they change it then its your problem. If they are doing it to screw you then it might be rude, but it is kind of rude to just link to someone elses images without asking too.
The start of Jewish thought is the Exodus. The Torah tells us that we should act in every generation as if we personaly were brougt forth from Egypt. And the Midrash says that the soul of every Jew ever born was there when G-d presented the Torah at Mt Saini. So while it happened 3313 years ago and I'm only 28, I can quite truthfully say that the Lord G-d brougt me out from Egypt, and that if G-d had not brought us out we might still be slaves to this day.
For more information find a copy of a good Passover Haggada.
It should be noted that the book of Exodus does not say that we built pyramids, it says we built Pithon and Ra-ameses (I probably have the spelling wrong. The pyramids were a 1000 years old by this time.

Very few, for 1 thing it will have a transponder, which is what ATC really cares about. When a plane is painted by ATC the transponder sends back a code which ATC gave you and your alititude. That way they know who you are and where you are going (Assuming you are IFR or working with ATC) and can keep you away from other aircraft.
Ofcourse the other thing is that it was not desinged for stealth.
Ignorance is not an excuse, not in our courts, anyway. If our elected officials don't have the energy and desire... Replace them!
I don't think it will work. Ok so we get a bunch of congress men who have a clue about this, but don't have any clue about other things (like say energy policy) which are also important. There are too many things for congresfolk to know about everything. Which is why it is so important to write to them If they get a lot of mail on something they tend to listen. This is also why a congressman who knows a lot about a few things tends to get listened to.
If I as a person break a law in China (or elsewhere) online, then the Chinese government has to convice the US government to arrest me and ship me to China so that they can try me. The US government may or may not do this depending on treaties etc. Similarly they could take me to court in a civil suit, but if a court in France decidese to fine me 100,000 euros they have very little chance of enforcing that. A French court won't be able to put a lein on my condo or otherwise do anything to me unless I'm in France (or at least the EU).
On the other hand if a company that has offices in that country does something they have a much better chance as there is actualy stuff there they can go after, the bank acount and assets of a company.
Well that is only true if the courts say it is. If the Hague convention falls afoul of the Bill of rights the Courts will favor the Constitution. Ofcourse they might not agree with you or me on exactly what speach is and is not protected.
Well SSL and SSH are great if you are working on point to point communications. But if you want to put up a website that say is critical of the Chinese government, then SSL would not help. After all you probably want people to *SEE* your web site. Sure you could set it up as https, but if you are going to let anyone view it, then the Chinese government or anyone else can look at it too.
Big companies like IBM GM and Ford spend a lot of money each year on things that won't be a product for 20 years. Why because in 20 years it might be a great product. Remember for a GM $20 million (or whatever) is a non trivial but not really large amount of money. Ofcourse its in GM's intrest to make better cars. I'm sure they have lots of other reasearch projects into all sorts of things in a number of centers around the world. Some of them will pan out and be seen in cars of the future, some won't. But if you don't fail some of the time you are not being inovative enough.
IANAL
I think they are drawing a distiction. If a cop sees me beating up someone threw my window he does not need a warent to do something. If he was using Night Vision goggles he does.
What they said is actualy that the police need a warent if they are using some tool that the average person does not have access to. So for example if they are looking into my window with a telescope they probably do not need a warent, after all if they are looking in my window with a telescope I can easily block that by drawing my drapes. But if its an IR night vision thing they probably do. Hey its not a perfect ruling but from what I heard last night from Nina Totenburg on NPR it sounds like its quite good.
It seems like a reasonable standard. If I leave the drapes open and someone looks into my window that is my problem, if I didn't want them to see I should close my drapes. And the court did say that this applies to any new technology.
The issue is not software its stock costs. The Walmarts of the world can sell retail for less than the little guys can buy wholesale because they buy everything in huge quanitites.
If you are a little guy who wants to go up agenst the Walmarts and the B&N's of the world you better have something specific to draw people into your shop. I don't think P2p inventory is going to do it.
You would never know that from listening to her (except once in a while it gets mentioned on air). You always feal that she is in a living room chatting with her guests. Even if she is in Phily and the guest is who knows where.
Oh and they have all of their archive online so you can listen to a show she did 10 years ago if it intrests you.
I listened to it this morning, and I felt that she did a very good job. Its not only important that she understand the idea of "Open source software" its important that those of us listening do too. Ok I know what it is but many people who are listening might not know. So she gave Linus a chance to explain some of the ideas.
She does great radio and is a credit to the medium. Which can be said about NPR in general.
I would bet that even if Terry Gross had never heard of linux before, she sat down with the book and read it and made notes on the things she wanted to ask about. And her style of doing interviews tends to bring people out and feal good about being interviewed.
You still need a source of money. If you are going to have non trivial operations that would warent forming some form of corprate body you are going to have expenses. These could include office space or people working for you or a newsletter etc. All of these things cost money. That money has to come from some where. So if you are going to form a Non-Profit you are going to need to convince a rather steady stream of people to give you money. Yes the FSF does it as do other people (EFF, SysAdmin guild etc) but I'm thinking the the room for Computer charities to raise funds in is rather small.
I'm not saying it can't be done, it can be but it won't be easy.
Actualy you can end the year with more money than you started with (in fact its a good idea if you want to be around long term) the major difference is that in a traditional for profit company that money or at lest some of it gets sent to the stock holders, in a non-profit it can't be. It can be saved for the future to build an endowment or for other things.
In the US there are a lot of rules for non-profits. At least those that want 501c3 status which is what most universties are. If you are a 501c7 which includes things like social clubs it easer, but then donations are not tax deductable.
The Green bay packers thing asside. It costs a huge amount of money to go public, and the people who you need to buy your stock are not a bunch of geeks who will buy a few thousand dollars of it, but managers of mutual funds and pentions etc. Those guys will buy $20 million in stock in something if they think its a good deal, even a long shot good deal. Those guys really want to see numbers saying that they are going to make money. Because thats their job.
And hell I wouldn't drop $1,000 on a stock if I din't think I was going to make money. I make think the Mandrake folks are cool. But If I have a spare $1,000 sitting about, I'm probably going to use it to pay off some of my mortgage.
Actualy we do. If the KKK wanted to march down main St in Nashua NH (Where I live) I would be the first to admit that they have every right to do so under the law. And they have done far more to hurt freedom than the MPAA ever has.
Now that being said I would also be busy aranging a major all town party the same day in a park across town so that the Local Paper would put us not them on the front page.
Maybe try to get people to pledge $5 to the Sourthern Poverty Law center for every klansman who shows up. When All else fails employ irony.

Actualy there is, here is an article that highlights it. Archaeology and the Bible
And it is fairly certain that the Torah was written down within a generation or two after the arival in Israel.

In that case you could challenge it on a due proccess grounds never mind the free speach. (It might be a better place to do so actualy)
