Hmmm.... Funny maybe, insitefull no. Lets look at interesting non-intel compatible platforms. All of that ASCI stuff that IBM does, All the SGI clusters out there The Earth Simulator in Japan. etc..... ok so intel is cheep, but it you want harder and faster then you can't afford to have cheep.
Well shouldn't we just demand a refund on our council tax until they turn off the street lights between midnight and 6am. (or all together).
Turn down the unatural warmth in closed shopping malls.It's usually 20+deg c, but should be 17-18Deg c to be 'confortable' for most people in the kind of cloths you would wear to the shops.
magic types have there problems a random file could contain the correct header, so this is no good for mime types.
HTTP servers should store all the mime information for all there files and always give the correct info, but at the moment that would require someone to sit and type it in. If the filing system supported mime types then the aplication that generated the original document could set the mime type of that file and the mime type would always be known.
having said that, the file name should 'NEVER' be changed, I might like my jpegs with the extrension.jpeggypicfiles, i don't want moilla guessing that it should put a.jpg or.jpeg on the end for me, nothing else does!
And what's more scary is that they KNOW what there doing..... I hope.....
In the UK they 'give' old people a TV license(or free TV), probably because it's easier than policing a riot of 80year olds, when they should really be giving them lots of drugs so they can experiance a bit more life before they die in a white room, surrounded by strangers with tubes poking out there nose.
The problem with schools is that there full of kids,and kids are nasty bastards.
There are two type of kids that leave school, the ones that didn't fit in, and the ones that take another 10years to grow up.
By your measure, kids that are home-schooled will be in a more adult culture, be more open(that's adult culture), and less 'childish/attention seeking' By the time there 20 they'll be as 'mature' as a 25year old school kid.
How about getting some other agencies in on the same OSS and splitting the support code $8000 a year over a few agencies could work out at $2000 a year or less.
The code is already there, at least in the greatest part and has been for months.
It looks like there are three problems, putting DES, MD4,MD5 somewhere sensible possibly using PSM adding NTLM and fixing a nasty bug where Mozilla opens too many connections.
Until the nasty blocker is fixed there can be no NTLM.
Not a flame, but some very valid reasons why people won't/can't use mozilla.
1: Poor handeling of bypass proxy server e.g. uses,'s as seperators and.'s in addresses Only performs tail matches which is useless for IP subnets.
2: No option to bypass local addresses
3: Doesn't save the address you type in if connecting to the site fails.
4: Always accept this certificate keeps asking you until you click only for this session.
5: History is very unusable.
6: Mozilla may support theames, but IE will always use the colours and sizes you have setup for various UI components on you system
7: Mozilla doesn't implement HTLM authentication, which means that if you are using a NTLM authenticating prozyserver at work (say microsoft Proxy 2) then you can't use Mozilla.
8: Very nast habbit of appending extra extenstion to files you download. (I've had at least a couple of.tgz.html's)
Well that's 8, and most if not all are on the bug list and have been you years.
"People need to remember that when dealing with intelligent people, if you cannot get your point of view across without resorting to whining, you may need to reconsider how intelligent they really are." [if they were that 'intelligent' they would be able to help you to 'refine' your point]

There is nothing worse than making what you CONSIDER to be a valid point, which you may have taken a long time to think about, rejected without any apparent thought.
This breeds a how can HE know that MY idea is shit, when I've spent 2 years on the problem and he's spent a second.
Well that's not so true, 1: it would encourage more 'indipendant' candidates, If two candidates have the sameish opinions and you can't tell which one is for the 'party' you think is best, You'll end up voting for the candidate you think is best.
2: Many candidates don't tie the party line on some of the 'CORE' issues that the party leader want's to follow.
Ouch, I'm glad we don't quite have that here in the UK.
My personal preferance would be blind voting, your not allowed to know the party of the candidate. This would force people into knowing a little bit about each candidate and picking the one they 'want'.
Well you answered you own question 'character to character interaction'
If there is more than one NPC in the game then each can run it's own AI thread. So from you example of sequential logic" from there own perspective Charater 1, checks that A and B are true Charater 2, also checks that A and B are true
Both sets of checks can be run at the same time.
You can also run a logic statement as 2 or more substatements and combine the results.
Say I have
(A AND B) OR (C and D)
I can work out (A and B) at the same time as (C AND D) and then combine the results to run an or.
A B C and D will usually be 'complex' function e.g. A could be somthing like can I see xyz and B might an I under water, C might be can I hear xyz and is it 'dark'.
Also most AI's don't run on straight logic, they run on neural-nets and heristics other techniques such as HMMA can be used in AI's to give a more natural learened response which all take a hell of a lot of processing power.
AI lends it's self to paralell processing. So, are they moving towards requing 2cpu's for entry level gaming, one for general game play and the other busy doing all the AI in the background.

If the packet size is less than 1458 then Cisco Express Forwarding is used to forward the packet to its destination, whilst above 1458 the hardware will inspect the packet, make a number of descsions and then forwarded it.

Maybe you just keep the wrong friends?
since most filing systems don't save mime types more or less impossible.
You'd need end to end mime typing e.g. ftp that supports mime types.
How about getting some other agencies in on the same OSS and splitting the support code $8000 a year over a few agencies could work out at $2000 a year or less.
3. are you retarded ?
/.ed. or your connection drops.
Nope, It just that some site's take a long time to load like when there
Or say you misstype the URL,
it's no longer there so you have to retype the whole lot, or maybe you typed it correctly in the first place.
I have a 9, downloads the file to tmp first, so you need lots of space in tmp, twice the disk space that the file needs etc....

Well, I think it means
read a function and work out what it does, and remember it.
(second later) re-write the function.
repeat until all functions are completed.
Access and Oracle don't strike me as 'good' databases to learn SQL on, there just not ANSI compilent enough!.
Maybe I'm a couple of years out of date but
Oracle has a problem with Joins, they just don't work, and that's a big bit of SQL.
Access has a poor SQL implementation, I can't remeber how poor, but very!.
Prohaps it would have been better if the book used a free, more ANSI complient database and included on a CD) e.g. Postgres or Intrabase.
Shouldn't that be

From reading through the artical Grid computing seems to be what Lotus Notes has been doing for years (just on a more general scale).
Notes has had some success in some, areas, but I believe the deployment cost, along with the technology of the time hindered it's adoption.
So I don't see why, in the current climate, I would use Grid technology over Notes.
Well if it ain't broke......
Well that's not so true,

Well from the sounds of instant runof there's a lot of vote fixing going on, which in my opinion is worse.
Instant runof turns into to a boys club.
Ouch, I'm glad we don't quite have that here in the UK.
My personal preferance would be blind voting, your not allowed to know the party of the candidate. This would force people into knowing a little bit about each candidate and picking the one they 'want'.

Have you looked at PGAccess, it does form and report building for Postgress.
