The piece of Windows they had did not include drivers. It says:
Excluded from the kernel code are the device drivers, and the plug-and-play, power management, and virtual DOS subsystems. The missing parts explain the large size difference between the WRK and the other three kernels.
Much of the code in Linux, for instance, is drivers.
There are those who worry about these things. Much work on the semantic web has been with n3 N3 is a superset of rdf, allowing for quoting of groups of triples (known a formulae). In n3, you can say things about groups of n3 triples, including about their trustworthiness.
For instance, you can say:
[is log:semantics of <documentURI> ] a:untrustworthyInformation.
essentially saying that the formula which is the semantics of the given document if of a class:untrustworthyInformation, which your n3 parser may attach special meaning to.
There are many who are very wary on n3 for precisely the same reasons.
Note that I will always plug n3, given that I'm heavily involved with cwm.
When I tell people I work for the inventor of the Web, their first response is always,
``Didn't Al Gore invent that?''
Then I have to go into a long tedious explanation about how Al Gore invented the Intenet, and the Web is only one application of it.
I personally would prefer that Tim would keep on going on these long trips to get awards. Getting things done on Cwm without direction from Tim on what Cwm should actually do is getting hard. I've been spending more time at work on slashdot as result.
At least some XML people recognize the same, thus the existence of RDF. RDF is equivilent to a relational database. There is a working group right now looking into a query language for RDF.
That said, some RDF people here at the w3c don't care that much for serializing RDF as XML, prefering the much more readable n3
What we need is a more general way of defeating all things that will block traffic based on it not using http, as put forth in rfc 3093, dated from 1 April 2001.
That resolution, a victory of an anti-semitic (indeed, anti-religion in general) Soviet government, has been overturned.
secular Zionism is Jewish nationalism. It therefore has two parts.
(1) The Jews are a nation (2) As such they deserve a nation-state
The only way that can be construed as racist is to say that Nationalism is inherently racism --- but that does not appear to be well accepted (Take for instance, Palestinian Nationalism).
It may be true that some people who are Zionists are also racists, may apply Zionism is a racist way, etc. etc. --- but that is irrelevent to the meaning of the word.
Religious Zionism is an entirely different animal, and I have not addressed it here
No. That was precisely my point. A hologram is a real effect to the point that it has focal planes. In an analog hologram, every piece of information about a light wave, including its direcion and intensity, is saved in a diffraction pattern, that can be read by shining the reference beam again. In a holographic video system, something is causing the exact same diffraction patterns that the holographic plate would have stored.
The beam is never focused anywhere. It is brought back when the hologram is viewed. The loss of focus planes would come from projecting a focused image on a screen, the first place that happens is your eye. You can focus on the front of a hologram, and the back is out of focus, or visa versa. At my lab they have printed some holograms and messed up the focal planes so they just looked wrong.
These 3-d displays that they are talking about send two different pictures in different directions. In that ways, you get an illusion of parallax so you see depth.
On a regular moniter, things may be rendered in 3-d, but they are displayed in a flat method. This can be approximated in the real world by closing one eye. With these screens, you get the asme 3-d illusion that you get in a "magic eye", where your brain interprets slight differences in pictures between you two eyes as depth.
The problems mentioned, such as the fact that it does not know where your eyes are to send the right images to the right places, are being worked on, but eye tracking makes the system much more complicated.
There are other, more fundemental problems with screens. Among them are that the focus plain is still on the screen, eevn while the sterio says that the image is somewhere else. This can give people headaches.
<SHAMELESS PLUG> I work at that MIT media lab Spacial Imaging Group, who were mentioned previously on slashdot They have a holographic video which in theory works, It has many other problems, including that the person who built it has graduated and moved on.

So far, the main result of filters seems to have been to force spammers to send more spam.
Think about it. Per message, it costs practically nothing for the spammer to send email. He needs to get a certain number of responses. If 90% of all e-mails he sends are filtered, he just sends 10 times more. Result: ISP's are hurt more.
The article implies that WinXP is still biult on DOS.
While that was true through WinMe, WinXP is built on NT, which is a completely independant kernel, whose history others can tell better than I can. So technically, they have already done something similar to what is being suggested -- switching to a modern kernel.
Only the one they used was (mostly) developed in house.
> I've seen a few pages on google where no cache was available which leads me to think that there's a way to disable caching also.
Actually, its much worse than that. Google caches every page it indexes, and therefore when you search, it can find pages linked to from pages that it indexed, which it therefore does not have a cache of. This is why Google can search through more pages than it indexes. This is also why some pages you find do not have cached copies
I remember once I was watching an eleven year old kid fill out a form for something completely truthfully. When he hit submit, it took him back to the form, complaining that the age he gave was too young (for them to be collecting information on him), and suggesting that he fix it. So of course, he did.

On a TI-83+ (or TI-83) take int(5/13*13) - you get 4.
So then you do fpart(5/13*13) and get one.
so then you do fpart(5/13*13) - 1 and get zero,
and ipart(5/13*13) - 4 = 0

Yes. Far too often, I have seen FAQ's that look as follows:

How does Product xxxx work?
Product xxxx utilizes state of the art, advanced, patent pending, Web integration and B2B technology to work very well.
(These sound a great deal like the classic answer about the Heisenburg Compensator)
Great! How can I buy Product xxxx?
I agree.
Smashing the Stack for Fun and Profit is certainly a classic.
