They do supply some CDRs to test. Your are correct that "debug PS2" exists. But as you know several version of the PS2 has already been produced. So to do compability tests these CDR's are used.
1) Its actually not "bad areas" that Sony is using with PS2 discs. They have encoded a sort of sub-signal onto the disc that bruners cannot recreate and more important, nor can asian "copy shops".
2) The PS1 discs has a error written into the TOC but CloneCD (aand others) deals with this without problems.
3) Developers can actually buy CDR's at Sony with the copyprotection on, so they can burn discs to test on non development equipment.
4) Sonys DVD-ROM's has the same copyprotection buildin as the CD's. So even with a DVD-R (Burned on the A03) you cannot boot with a modchip.
How can you call something professional with these limitations:
1. Max 128kbps recording
2. Max 256 MB memory using MMC.
3. No option for recording MP2 (lossless)
But it is nice to have portable MP3 recorders and I wish that someone would create a good unit for doing that. Right now, most recording is done with protable DATs (and sometimes mididiscs) or with a laptop with a good sound device (M-Audio or Emagic comes to mind).
Well I'm from Denmark, so you will have to forgive my english.

Transparent building materials

Transparent Concrete

· Score: 5, Interesting
The real problem with transparent building materials is that people inside want to control the transparency, just look at your own home, you got curtains and shades on all(most) windows.
A classic problem with new hightech buildings (Glass 'n metal) is climate control, its nice to be able to look outside, but if the sun is starring you right back its not that fun. So you tint the windows:)
The next problem is that in those buildings the light that gets through is not white light (sunlight) anymore, and working in that kind of buildings can cause depressions very similary to winter depressions.
Palm's biggest problem is their processor the "Dragonball" - a special version of the 68xxx series with buildt in LCD display controller.
This processor is OLD !
The competitors are miles ahead (BTW: Cool record !)
EPOC - ARM9
PocketPC - StrongArm
Linux - StrongArm
All 32 bits and a modern OS.
Motorola has several successors to the 68xxx series, but none for the PDA marked, the Coldfire for embedded use and the PowerPC for the desktop, and some embedded powerpc variations.
One of the greatest features of the Sydney 2000 website, was the "... By Country" - So I could select my country (Denmark) and I would get access to all the information that involved the danish athletes.

ZeoSync intentionally randomizes naturally occurring patterns to form entropy-like random sequences through its patent pending technology known as Zero Space Tuner(TM). Once randomized, ZeoSync's BinaryAccelerator(TM) encodes these singular-bit-variance strings within complex combinatorial series to result in massively reduced BitPerfect(TM) equivalents. The combined TunerAccelerator(TM) is expected to be commercially available during 2003.
I think they have made a buzz-word compression routine, even our sales peoply have difficults putting this many buzz-words in a press release:)
Wirth DID hand compile the first pascal compiler, this was ofcause a subset of pascal, ~60% (Ref Dragon Book pg. 727 1986 ed.)
McCarthy did hand translate one of the first lisp interpreters into assembler in late 1958, and that should be one of oldest hand bootstrapping compilers. (Ref. Dragon book pg.725 1986 ed.)
Ahhh the old chicken and egg problem. (Compiler version)
The first Pascal compilers (and many other compilers) where actually written in their own language. Niklaus Wirth (and his staff) simply "executed" the program by hand/on paper and in that way they compiled the first compiler written in the language itself.
After that it becomes easier, you just need to make sure that you can compile the new version of compiler with the old one.
Ofcause they need to ban a game where you can do the following:
Urinate:
Walk up to a wall and press Up, Down, Up, Down, L2, R1, R2(2), Up, Down, Up, Down, Up.
Your character will urinate on the wall. The cops will chase since it counts as vandalizing.

Yeah, his JavaScript sucks, lets hope he is better at programming Perl than JavaScript :-)
Typo: withOUT a modchip ... Hehe.. My NEO4+Origa will boot DVD-R's directly. (A fine solutions until I get a Messiah clone).

The funny thing, is that it took several "security experts" a lot of work to figure out what dnetc.exe actually was

My dear Catherine,

Maybe not now, but in 1968 computer cycles was quite expensive so must programming was done on paper.
And existing langauges was pretty useless, they tried for a period to do it in fortran but failed.
