diesel requires no new infrastructure, and we can gracefully move to biodiesel as the oil reserves are tapped out. Why is this only obvious to me? Why can't I buy a honda civic with a diesel?
While the loss of jobs is a crisis to many of us, Yourdon makes note of the oil crisis of the early 1970s and a speech that Jimmy Carter made in April 1977. Carter said "If we fail to act soon we will face an economic, social and political crisis that will threaten our free institutions." Nearly 30 years after Carter made that speech, oil is at an all-time high and nothing has been significantly done to reduce our dependency on oil; or to find a better solution.
Anyone making a statement like this is a kook... gas/oil has never been cheaper when adjusted for inflation
The 'super volcano' risk sounds completely bogus... over time the earth is cooling (radiologically) so statistically the odds of something happening becomes less and less.
Its funny that the blue guys only seem to show up when intel is getting its ass kicked. Last time I saw those stupid commercials was when the athalon hit 1000 ghz, now they are back!
I thought the rebuttle was pretty lame... several stories of past interest in immortality that failed... I am sure mankind has thought about flight for just as long, but in 50 years we went from flying a couuple hundred yards to the SR-71.
How about modal dialog boxes with error messages you cannot copy and paste (like to search deja with)? Its always some cryptic crap that is hard to type.
NT4 could be run off of a FAT partition wher server 2000 would only use NTFS. Most of those 'benchmark' articles failed to mention what disk format was used for the tests.
this is precisely why kerry lost. he harped on pseudo facts that did not resonate. we all know that there was overhiring due to the internet bubble, but we continue to hear about job loss. the american voter gets tired of hearing the same bs over and over again.

nothing you couldnt do in jsp/tag libraries
I agree. I solve the most difficult problems when I am in the shower or playing with my kids.
because even if being reactive sucks it is better than doing nothing.
spread out over the large area of a tv screen this would appear pretty dim

i believe the ussr created a 500 megaton nuclear device. This is close to the theoretical limit for nuclear weapons.
Not to mention that from a technical standpoint it isnt any more difficult than cloning any other mammal, which has already been done.
Ist this the background for the movie Phantasm?
yes it is.. i guess speaking out of your ass is on par for slashdot.

If AMD can increase the clockspeeds really well on their 90nm chips intel is a goner.

Your tax dollars are funding this.. why dont you move to Canada?
Probably not. Somebody experienced with subverting the system will be trained to make their mind work overtime when they are answering truthfully.

he should of built a better web server out of them
One of the big features of solaris 10 is AMD64 support.

You guys are nuts, we jump through hoops so developing countries burn it instead? this is the most brain-dead idea i have ever heard.
the depth-of-field effects were really cool too

I guess Kerry didnt communicate the issues to the voters very well, did he?
the reason they added a politics section is so you could add it to your filter list
