I'd think of something like an UPDATEable filtered table. The view would just be a SELECT with some WHERE clause on some huge table. This way, you'd probably manage a much smaller amount of data, but you'd be able to update it. Maybe the data you filter out is not only unwanted, but it could also be obsolete, so you'd prefer not to filter it in the client application.
I'd rather lose UPDATEable views and finally get materialized views. They would be a huge performance and clarity help. If you have a query that takes some time (due to data size) and it's source tables are not updated frequently, you can make a table with the results by hand, but the DB should be able to do it by itself.
There was some research back in the past, this is a much more precise version, it seems (and btw, why aren't they using also the built-in camera, which is very common in today's laptops?)
Maybe you remember measles parties, but not the measles wards in hospitals, where people with their brain smashed by encephalitis were kept. In that case, maybe you would have gotten a better picture. Kids also were dying more frequently in the past, and that was not as big an issue as today, because it was not avoidable at best and anyway there were many more kids per family than today.
I was vaccinated (my choice at 18) and survived an infection. I lived with people with measles and was ok all the time. I don't see having the virus spreading to my lungs, eyes, skin and brain as a better option. And I've seen the effects, you don't want to try them.
Thank you, they recovered quite well, but only them can tell how they felt for almost a week, and I suspect also a reduction in the immune response for some time in the child (he was a little more than 1 year old at the time). Actually, the child couldn't tell how he felt, but you could see it in his face. Luckily the haven't developed any side effect, which as was told are not so uncommon.
This year my wife mysteriously got measles (in Italy). She hadn't been vaccinated because when we were young the vaccine was not available. BUT our youngest child got it, too, because he was at the time younger than the age at which you get the shot.
I don't tell you the trouble of having a diagnosis, since the disease is so uncommon today, that after two visits, my wife finally diagnosed it herself on wikipedia (sic). And the trouble of telling all the authorities, which needed to find the lost protocols for such an infection.
To sum it up: the studies linking the shot with autism were done by an UK professor, who has been on trial for telling false results to help his own company. When you don't get the shot and you are healthy, you're just selfishly exploiting the fact that most of "other people" will get the shot and you will be protected. BUT measles IS dangerous, and some people won't have your choice, because they are too young or too unhealthy to get that shot. They will risk severe damages by the disease, so PLEASE don't be a wimp and kindly get vaccinated.
In that novel, smart children are raised in military academies, which test their skills by having them play "virtual" games against the enemy alien race, only to know that the advanced levels are not as virtual as they are said to be.
Thank you, I'm Italian and the report given in the pbs article is way too rough. Just getting some buzz-words from a speak and stitching them together can make it say anything you want. The catholicnewsagency translation is right.
The pope didn't say that the internet is dividing nations, but that digital divide is exacerbating distances between wealthy and poor ones. And he said that the internet can lead the single person to be left alone because he/she doesn't think like the majority, without looking at his/her face and seeing he/she is a real person.

In 9/11/2001, you showed to the world how a good community site could be able to support a world which was trembling that day, and you gave a very interesting recount on how you did it.

Quoting from last E.C. and B.B. King CD's booklet: "I want to thank [...] and most of all Melia and Aibo for their love and support... E.C."
I hope he called some pet "Aibo" (which may be a TM issue...), and he's not thanking a robot for his love!
In a bookstore I got it for 12.95$

Hi,
I was studying in UCDavis two years ago, and my very good OS teacher Matt Bishop (see here) gave us Hackers as a reading (along with "The mythical man-month").
I remember getting it in the bookstore, paperback edition with a revised intro from the author and a couple more chapters with RMS and all the news on it. It was 12.95$
I live in Italy, where WAP is advertised a lot, but it looks like no one is using it. The cheapest you get it is at 50c/min, which is too much for reading some one-word-per-line sentences.
Also, the companies are starting the upgrade process to UMTS, which blows WAP and even classic home telephone for its data rate.
Well... SMS is widely used here in Italy, too... people use cell phones like crazy, and companies are giving out "100 free msgs a day for the holidays" cards for 5$. Last XMas we even had the system paralized by people messaging each other!
If you really want energy, why not use piezoelectric crystals? They are very sensitive to knocks, and they would work perfectly with my IBM "heavy -foot- touch" keyboard...
(BTW very good design for the site, it took a long time to build it I guess... looks like there are some very good unemployed geeks out there... hire 'em!)

Just an hypothesis...

My friend has a cd-changer for his car, and he says it wouldn't play "data" CD-Rs: it needs the "for-audio" type.
Just my 2c.
