Now what sort of hacker is going to enlist in the military? First of all he will make 1/10 th of what he can just using his existing skills. Second of all he would likely be enlisted man and even if he was a officer he would have to put up with the incredible amount of crap that comes with military service.
Then you have the same sort of issue with civilian govt service, who wants to put up with it. Half of these guys have no degree so the pay scale does not benefit them either. On top of this it likely requires a TS clearance and how many of these people could actually obtain the required clearance.
How would you like anyone to be able to add code to the mainline kernel without a review process? The iphone without a application review process is just as vulnerable to bad code as the kernel. Some idiot fires off a malloc loop in a app and crashes the phone, not exactly the user experience anyone wishes to promote. Yes the review process is painful but a necessary evil.
It could be that it is using undocumented or not allowed api calls? A good majority of these camera apps violate apple rules so it should not come as a real surprise.
Learn about Binary Search Trees, Red Black Trees, Bubble Sort, Quick Sort, Heaps, etc. Depends entirely on what you plan to be doing when leaving school. These algorithms are seldom used when programming things like business apps. In fact I don't think I can ever recall implementing a search algorithm as you mention after school.

This of course renders your remarks as useless as words spoken from any so called climate expert. You as well as others have a vested interest in pushing the global warming theory. It keeps the grant money from the govt flowing.
Get ready to see even more jobs being shipped south of the border if this is implemented. Simple economics really, cheaper labor and now we add yet another reason not to produce anything in the US by increasing energy prices.
I did not even add in the cost of actually running the model S if I had it would probably been closer to 15 - 20 years if it is possible to break even. It is almost a certainty that with the current technology the batteries are not going to last 10 years so break even is not possible.
Toyota Yaris 14,000 base price give or take Model S 49,000
That is a price difference 35 grand at three bucks a gallon for gas that is about 11 years worth or more, wow I cannot wait to stand in line to buy one of these bad boys. It is certainly going to be amusing watching the auto industry fail yet again because they are letting the govt push them down the whole green energy road. The are getting ready to produce vehicles again that nobody is going to buy.
I guess I have been around long enough to understand when it is release time get the resume ready. The budget is gone everything switches to maintenance mode and the team size dwindles end of the road. As for the game problem freezing or crashing by the client now that is a solid programing issue. The authentication servers now that is a problem that can be fixed and fixed extremely fast. If the authentication servers are still down it is a good indication that the project is completely out of cash and no one is willing to spend anything to fix it. The other possibility is that the game was not developed with scale in mind from the start(every byte counts).
I have a better idea, how about providing a native programming interface so we can squeeze some performance out of the devices. I worked on porting some iPhone stuff to the G1 until I realized just how bad the performance is using the java api.

Where is the source code I can compile it and submit it to the store today.

Running those drivers would be about as smart as running Dr. Dos on windows....What do you mean it crashed?
What a fantastic idea...
But is a Symbian, Blackberry or G1 fast enough to run my physics based 3d games at better than a 30 fps frame rate? Yea I though so...
BTW, my games also require access to a accelerometer.
Let me get started right away porting my stuff over to java!
If it never showed on the first page it is because you did not set the release date forward to the date apple approved it.
In Canada the standard response to any question is "Ya Hey!" thus the skewed results.

But where would the campaign funds come from then? A 1099 is not going to donate millions of dollars to political campaigns every year.
Lets build a IPhone!
SLOW!

Yes because XP is the most secure OS ever released...I cannot even type that without LMAO

Who wants a job doing a payroll system using a third party tool set based on old languages and technology....doomed from the start.
I don't know about the rest of you guys but I have never looked at our payroll drone and wished I had his job.
I am surrounded by gravel roads where I live and in decent weather I would not hesitate running 70 mph.
Interesting, how do you think they got through the firewall in the first place?
No Linux support? What do you live in the middle of the Sudan?
I live in one dinky little town and one phone call I would have a Linux Engineer on site
in under 60 minutes.
Java is smoking fast as long as the machine running it has a TB of ram for each hello world app.

Oh yea it is so horrible that I run 200+ desktop sessions on a single server ... appears to be a person at the keyboard issue.
