Indeed. Even in someplace like Boston where'd you think they might have their act together the subway website's facilities are lacking. There's
a minimal trip planner but it sucks, and it's difficult if not impossible to find the addresses of stations so you can get a real map somewhere else.
Actually you left out a few. I've not yet managed to find The Meaning of Liff and its sequel but I hear its good. Last Chance to See is still in print (or was recently) and is a really excellent work.
And wtf would be wrong with doubling their budget? NASA is but a pittance compared to other programs, and I dare say it pays off a hell of a lot more than most Joe Six-packs know.
Your typical postal worker is unlikely to be able to recall you from their uncle 29 days and thousands of customers later. Likewise, you'd have a hard time cracking a postal worker to access the images of all customers in the past month.
Indeed. I'd wondered if I was dreaming. Watching Daria on 'N' or Kim Possible on Disney a good portion of the half hour is eaten by commercials and *music videos*
NiCad batteries are bad, I imagine most phones use Li ir NiMH which are fine. OTOH the tantalum is another problem. Not particularly toxic, but exceedingly rare. You've heard of blood diamonds? What about blood-phones?
Slightly OT but what I'd really love to see is a backport of Gecko to the Netscape 4 interface. Bitch all you want about compliance (that's why you pull in Gecko!) but NN4 was feature rich and intuitive... none of this "Let's decide to redefine C-d!"
Calling it "Intellectual Property Rights" only buys into their world view. Call it what it is, Information Control Laws. -- Somebody should get a shitload of monkeys together and have them hammer out every piece of existing ICL.
You should stick with your second paragraph. Our antibiotics are derived from the natural defenses of molds etc. which took Bob knows how long to develop. We won't be able to keep churning out "new" antibiotics at the drop of a hat, and it sure as hell isn't possible to do "breed" bacteria in the wild as you propose.
As many have pointed out the "study" is flawed. I emailed the editor a few corrections (below):
Every user at MIT may place a website on their account see http://web.mit.edu/gorpwarp/www/ for instance.
It's not clear where your # of computers came from but it seems inaccurate for numerous reasons. There are university owned computers (Athena) of which there are at least 330, department owned computers, and a special class of Athena machines known as quick stations in high-traffic areas with time-limited access.
Other things you neglected to examine (more important IMHO than "are computers required" and "does tuition include a computer" -- double counting!) are: the existence of centralized accounts and the amount of disk space allocated per user (currently 1 gig), peripheral availability, and the variety of platforms used.
FYI for those interested in bandwidth IST just
sent out an email yesterday saying we have two new
outbound gigabits (different providers) in addition to our 5 other connections (each to a different provider). Also, MIT is part owner with
Harvard, BU and Northeastern of the Boston Area Metro Fiber Ring.

well since the original C64 used a TV for a monitor, and so does this I imagine it saved her the step of having to put something in between.

Which is why you never float that much common stock.
It is not a fait accompli.

Get a clue.

Also try Scirus from the facts at FAST. I've often had better luck there than on google.
It'd only be an if you're lame enough to spell out the acronym. If you pronounce it fak it's clearly a fak not an fak.
Several *hundred* thousand dollars. That's two orders of magnitude you lost there bub.

Dig a little deeper on their website and you can see they have a working/discussion group on an educational license.
Thank you! This is far more relevant than the Red vs. Blue everyone else is spewing. I was waiting for one of these for this years results.
Hey numbnutz, there's nothing with his sentence.
They conjugate funny on the other side of the pond

Umm, Ballmer isn't aiming at Trailer Park folk rather the richer people in the poorer countries.
Don't worry about it. Picassa was nothing new.
And do you expect to run a mac binary natively
on a P4? CLR, JVM and Parrot are all different virtual *machines*.
