Nope, instead we should point out that his kind would've been the sort during WWII selling fraudulent war bonds and misusing rationed sugar. Or trying to sympathize with the Nazi regime to get Lindbergh on his program.
Yep, and they also still use a timing chip that is only recommended for development use and slips like crazy.
There's just no reason to use Digium when Sangoma offers price competitive and technically superior products. Their sales and support structure is also much easier to work with. Digium genuinely seems to think that RT is an acceptable customer interface.
Right after candy time their AC also drops precipitously. You just have to be patient and wait for the approach of naptime when they slow down and your THAC0 will allow you to hit them.
It is indeed dosage specific. Which is why at one dosage it's Welbutrin and is used to treat depression but at another it's Zyban and used to quit smoking. I'm on the latter at the moment, and will probably be on the former once my cravings disappear.
I agree whole heartedly. In fact, my windows network manager is evaluating thin clients to replace PCs for all employees. The idea of replacing 1 $20k server every 5 years is much nicer than 100 $500 desktops every 3 years. Yes, those numbers aren't exact, but they give an idea of the sort of savings that are possible if your environment is a candidate for thin clients.
I won't even get into how cool it is to pull your access card out of your desktop in San Jose, hop a plane to NYC, grab a spare desk at the head office, plug your card in and be right where you left off with all your documents open, apps open, and xmms picks up in the middle of the mp3 it was playing.
You mean the thin clients that Scott McNealy was on NPR just the other day discussing? As usual Sun has two visions of the future, just in case they're wrong.
That only addresses a simple case where the higher ranked team of the two you're comparing goes. Now imagine you've got three divisions of which the winner advances. Then imagine those three divisions are in a league where the best record that didn't win a divisional title advances. It gets even more complicated when advancement isn't strictly based on record but instead a point system (like the NHL) where ties and certain types of losses still generate points.
We'll not even mention tie breaker rules that might be necessary.
Granted its not likely to end up looking like a scene of out Baseketball but it is still more complex than your simple algorithm would lead people to think.
I'm actually willing to believe Jason Fortuny does in fact exist. His behavior sends strong signals that he really did post all of this with his own info, and as the enormity of the potential consequences of what he did begin to dawn on him he's feverishly redacting his info off his websites. As if it wasn't mirrored all over the web by the time he had this lightbulb moment.
I found it truly amusing that someone sought to exploit people's inherent belief in the anonymity of the internet while clinging to that same belief himself.
The normal explanation is that the district person in charge of procuring equipment doesn't want to work for the district much longer. They want to work for the laptop vendor, so they "negotiate" an above market deal in exchange for a job a suitable (6-12 hours) period after the deal closes. Yes its illegal, yes it happens all the time.
The excuses given usually include "software licensing" and "imaging costs" though those are both bullshit.
Yes, I am bitter that my property tax dollars are going to pay for overpriced iBooks so the former superintendant of my district could get a cushy job at Apple, instead of hiring teachers to work in the school my idiot ass neighbor isn't learning anything in.
You have a flawed assumption that allocating swap will make it be used. Further, read/write cycles are "free" on hard disks, as they don't really have a finite number in them. If you were using NAND that'd be different.
1.5x is one of those "rule of thumb" values that some folks subscribe to. Others go with 2x, others with 1x. None of them are hard and fast, each is based on certain operating environments and requirements.
I run a number of production systems with no swap at all, some with 1x, some with larger (Oracle requires ridiculous amounts of swap for some unholy reason).
Depending on the quality of the people who wrote the system they're confirming because they recognized your utterance at a low confidence and the Right Thing to do is confirm.
Street capture is rather difficult, and increasing your volume has about as much chance of success with a machine as with someone who doesn't speak the language. Don't put pauses between syllables, let those flow naturally. Put pauses between words to help the ASR engine pick up those breaks more easily.
And yes, most voice enabled IVRs are shit, but its not an intrinsic quality of them.
A colleague of mine is Conquistador of QA. He has elicited similar responses from vendors.
I have a Sr Jr System Admin on my team, as HR refused to allow me to title him Jr SysAdmin but he's not experienced enough to warrant an unprefixed System Admin. I told him to just put SysAdmin on his resume though if he decides to look for a job before we change his title.
Glad to see I'm not the only person who thought that game rocked hard. I've been dying for a refresh of it for either 360 or PS3. Wii might be cool if they found a good way to use the controller to emulate actual sword play.
I have to agree. I don't follow the game industry in a ton of detail, but from what I've seen you see different groups of people coalescing around an idea for a new direction or concept, which then gets turned into a number of games of varying quality, before that group splits up and coalesces around a new set of ideas in new configurations of devs.
I'm also really hoping that online delivery of console games and the apparent readiness of big companies to allow indie devs to sell their wares via these systems will spark a real renaissance in the indie game space.
I also rarely get carded, and never mind when I do. Technically its not entrapment in that they're not doing anything to persuade a person otherwise unwilling to commit the crime to do so, which according to http://www.lectlaw.com/def/e024.htm is the deciding element in entrapment.
If a kid walks in and asks to buy a pack of smokes and isn't carded, there's no entrapment. I suppose if they were to beg and wheedle and plead and somehow convince the normally law abiding clerk to abandon being law abiding then it might be construed as entrapment.
I suspect outdoor smoking is on the block, Schaumburg being who they are. This is the suburb that pays teens to try and buy alcohol in order to bust restaurants, and does the same to gas stations with cigarettes. Not that I agree with selling to underagers, but I think its a bit underhanded of the cops to actively try and get people to break the law.
Dell was just an example. However you can also lease the equipment on a 1 or 2 year cycle to manage costs and provide newer equipment. You especially don't want to actually buy it and assemble it if you're going to be doing so every year.
Now that Dell owns Alienware that may be the most logical route to go. I'd also not get too hung up on delivering 200+ fps on the very latest games, that's a small segment of the market of gamers who'll care and you'll drive your costs way up to keep them happy (when they won't come game with you anyhow).
Nope. The County has said you can implement your own version that's as strict or more so, or you can do nothing and end up under our umbrella ban. This while they raise cigarette taxes to close the revenue gap.
Get your parts form a place like http://www.tigerdirect.com/ as they have local pick up and it easy to return bad parts to them.
I hate to disagree but I must. If you're running a gaming/internet cafe or whatever, really any business that isn't building and repairing PCs, then don't build your own computers. There's no cost advantage, and there's a large maintenance disadvantage. Pick a configuration from Dell, Compaq, whomever that serves your needs and buy all of them identical. Get 3 years or more of next business day on-site service for a pittance and then never have have hardware failure be your direct problem.
Here in beautiful Chicagoland we have what used to be Cook County Hospital. Its now John H. Stroger, Jr. Hospital of Cook County. Named after the then President of the Cook County Board. Fortunately, he might soon die there so then at least they can add memorial and it'll mean something.
If you want to see just how bad political corruption and nepotism still are in parts of the so-called first world, read up on the current election for his seat as board president. Its truly an amusing, yet frightening, story.

Won't be smoky much longer. Cook County smoking ban and all that.
If you'd use Mark Twain, why object to his made up name?
Or haven't heard of Samuel Clemens?

Because this way they had 7 bullets of bullshit instead of 1.
With just 1 they would've had to only charge $199.99.
Right, cuz thats hard to swallow next to Adam being created three times.
