only pushing their changesets to the central repository every couple of days.
With a distributed system, you can push it to a central server to an own copy (each developer has it's own url to keep a backup) at any time, like the end of the day.
I think it's because 32-bit "Intel Architecture" does not have as much registers available, but AMD64 does. So the compiler has more registers it can use. I guess a lot of 32-bit applications need to use 32-bit libraries, although from summary I gather it didn't need that.
What do you consider functional ? And how do you test that ? Do you need them to have kids ? Do you want them to have sex in a scan at the hospital to measure the pleasure center in their brain ? What would you consider functional ?
They were also hired to do so in as little time as possible. Some webdevelopers have claimed 80% of their time is spent working around IE. I'm not sure if 80% is a really good number, but atleast 60% is actually very realistic.
Apple refused to support ogg because it's technically inferior and they didn't want to put dev effort into something worse than they already have
<i>They've mentioned the potential for submarine patents as a reason for not using it.</I>
Actually it was both.
Funny, Apple actually has a free (as in free beer) license granted by On2 (now Google) to use VP3 (which Ogg Theora in based on), so it's kinda strange they complain about patents.
And yes, the iPhone now may not support Theora, but the hardware in the iPhone would possible be able to support it, the hardware isn't hardcoded (hardwired ?). Video-acceleration hardware like that usually has firmware to support different formats.
So some people keep wondering what the real reason is.
Even more likely they'll implement VP6 from On2, the company they recently bought. On2 is the company that released the source and codec-information of VP3 as Theora. Theora has been seperately improved over the years.
Maybe they'll release VP6 as open source, we'll know when we see it.
What is also interresting, a lot of commercial licences will run out in a few years and as everything seems to be moving to newer sutff like 3G (and a lot of people seem to get a new phone every few years), their might be a slight chance the operaters don't want to extended the existing licences. This will mean existing channels might start to free-up. And it might be a lot cheaper to get such a license ? But we'll have to see if that will really happen.
Maybe a Soekris box will do ?
98% of email is spam ofcourse.
Do these folks know you can have a seperate browser profile ?
;-)
A seperate profile for surfing porn, possible with specialized add-ons.
Hint: -P

You can't do that with a centralized system.
Maybe it can even be used by others to pull from.
Actually, it is, their are people that are that stupid, that's why Firefox includes the list.
Also maybe if their is an exploit which doesn't have a fix yet, it would be good if the sites that incorporate the exploit are on the list.
Maybe their are other reasons as well ?
Spoofing on a cable-network is not as easy.

I could be wrong ofcourse.
OK, where do you draw the line ?:
"...having both 46XX (female) and 46XY (male) chromosomes in approximately a three-to-one ratio."

Ahh, their is more than one implementation, this one is ok:
http://code.google.com/p/explorercanvas/downloads/list
Forget what I mentioned, it's based on SilverLight I think. I don't think the openweb will improve if more people download SilverLight.
Their is ExplorerCanvas. Maybe that will help. :-)
Have you actually tried to use it ?
I'll never do it again.
it reminds me of their Office email client and the magic 8 ball: outlook not so good

last one before 7 would be 6, it broke lots of stuff.
My mistake, VP6 in my comment should have been VP8.
I think someone should make a bugreport.
Heck, I'll do it now, if it isn't.
restarting slow downloads could also use some improvement, I'll do the same for that.

Why ? If Theora in the future is good (yes: IF) their is no reason you can't just say:
<video src="video.ogv">
<object classid="classid:something--whatever-flash" >
<param name="movie" value="ogvplayer.swf">
<param name="file" value="video.ogv">
</object>
</video>
Which is perfectly fine, even in IE.
Locations, etc. is what DNS-domains are for.

Actually, I think most people don't know what Chrome is, they don't associate it with a browser (yet).
I wonder what Dell will be shipping on them, they already ship Ubuntu and Ubuntu will have an ARM-port in their next release.
I like how all these smartbooks will now be running Linux and we can say to people who want to buy netbooks: their is also a smart choice :-)
