"The world as we know it will likely be ruined before the year 2000 and the reason for this will be its inhabitants' failure to comprehend two facts. These facts are (1) World food production cannot keep pace with the galloping growth of population. (2) 'Family planning' cannot and will not, in the foreseeable future, check this runaway growth."
I think we live in a prity fucked up world, look at the spread of AIDS and the lack of family planing. It may seem fine to some people who've been brain wased and have a different set of rose tinted glasses for each day, but the the rest of the world it's all fucked up and getting worse.
Don't forget that the average American has an IQ of 100.
The 'french' always have there own quirky systems. e.g. Metric Secam Montreall There own special time. The own 0' latitude (well they wanted it!) There own language (i.e. They hate slang from other languages creeping into french).
Databases and code should be designed in a similar way, for more or less the same reasons. If all the refactoring book people have been recommending seem a bit extreme (even the word refactoring sounds extreme to me, a bit like downsizing grrrr....).
Try getting a simple DB design book that goes through a normalisation process, it should make for a lighter read.
Then think about how to apply the process to software(a bit of light thinking)
The first couple of steps are something like
separate everything out into discrete chunks
look at 'keys' and 'indexes' (in source code they are design patterns, data structures the things that tie the chicks together).
You don't need a 1000 page bible, you need a ten pages of guide lines and good practices and a bit of brain power.
Couldn't the IEEE do two publications, one for the haves (non-DMCA countries) and one for the have-nots, the US, and probably soon the UK/EU, China etc....

Statatistics are a bit better than neural nets, but a neural nets is good for working out how to use the stats.
As well as the 'he never does that' approach, you also need to give the user a carrot and stick to train the interface, maybe even a fuzzy stick crtl+ = I want to do this, ctrl+shift+ = I want to do this, but only under current conditions.
The initial interface should be fairly open,
Microsoft tried the 'intelegent' interface before and produced shit head the paper clip, and those nasty hiding menus
on second thoughts the menus maybe not that nasty, the home user functions were shown, but power user functions where hidden, the adverage power user would have been able to work out how to turn the evil menus off.
It depends, In the UK you can't be had for past actions that are now illegal. You may also serve time for breaking a law that gets defunct, because you 'BROKE THE LAW'
Does that take into account all the other stuff that bumps up the takings.
At home i have the following DVD's/Videos (don't shun my collection).
The Wicker Man, Blade runner, Twelve monkies, The Vanishing (Euro version) Brazil, A Clockwork orange, The exorsist, The shining, Rambo box set (I had to buy it!!) One flew over the cookoes nest, etc....
All brought in the last year or so, and mainly antiques.
I could have downloaded them, but only I can only find the new crap on gnutella, and the Videos are cheep anyhows.
I didn't even finish collage in the UK (one level before degree).
I've stated to get a degree in other areas (chemistry and mathematics) at night school, [doing a degree after programming for such a long time seems so boring].
Here's my.contingancy.plan.
1:/ Get to a decent position with very transferable skills, (I'm looking in the design consultancy area).
2:/ Get some level of 'fame' from an open-source project ( I'm currently writing an X-platform Access database driver for open office). This give's you a CV for life
3:/ Invest well while I can, pay off the mortgage quickly, get some savings, so that if the shit hits the fan you can absorbed the possible pay cut.
My main worry is that I can't even read my own handwriting!!!!.
A good movie will still make $100,000,000 if it's re-released 5 years down the road. (without any tarting up), no matter how many people own pirate coppies.
Well reading thought the article, they seem to miss? a few things.
Of course primes have a generally log distribution, because every prime you find provides a factor later on down the line so the primes become more sparse.
Then there's the atoms thing, sfaik shells/energy levels are basically harmonic and a harmonic is more-or-less the opposite of a prime.
since harmonics and the increasing sparseness of primes could be taken as identical you're going to get the same distribution patterns out.
here goes
primes v harmonics
2 is prime and a harmonic root 3 is prime and a discord (root) 4 is non prime, and the second octave of the first root 5 is prime and a discord (root) 6 is non prime, and cord of the first and second roots 7 is prime and a discord (root) 8 is non prime, and third octive of the first root 9 is non prime, and first octave of the second root etc....

For a moment I thought ATA V2.0, Even reading through there web site, you wouldn't really know what Eclipse was all about... ahhh it's a free version of JBuilder, it's a shame that Borland look like they've ditched JBuilder Foundation. I hope Eclipse is just as good.
Slashdot Mirror
Hey his email address is at earthlink, I'm sure i get tonnes of abusive emails from that spamming company every day.
Most places I've worked won't install a Microsoft OS/Server product until service pack 3 comes out.
.NET
They usually wait for the 1st service pack for development software.
etc....
But as things stand, no one in the office where I work is using win2k, were all still NT.
SQL server 2000 hasn't been accepted for production systems yet.
An were all still using Office 97.
There are no plans for
and I'm still fixing software running on windows 95.
Even the microsoft freeks I've worked for before waited for a couple of service packs before installing anything (even if it came with MSDN).
They all predict we will run out sometime.
And as for:

How about things like.
I'm looking for that too searching.
Only letting nodes return results if they have an uptime of more that 10mins or so.
Nodes caching recient searches and performance stats.
Quick searches (hits popular search caches) and deep searches.
The 'french' always have there own quirky systems.
e.g.
Metric
Secam
Montreall
There own special time.
The own 0' latitude (well they wanted it!)
There own language (i.e. They hate slang from other languages creeping into french).
They also remove human rights from 60% of the world.
And keep them impoverished
And fighting each other

1/0=1/0
You can solve problems like 1/0 but you need to have context, numbers on there own are meaning less.
so
given 1 loaf is equivelent to 2 fishes
1 pie / (2 fishes - 1 loaf)
in just numbers becomes
1/0
but it's really
1 pie / (2 fishes - 1 loaf)
It depends, In the UK you can't be had for past actions that are now illegal. You may also serve time for breaking a law that gets defunct, because you 'BROKE THE LAW'
Is the publication date of a Book, the day it first went to press or the day the last copy was sold. I'm confused.
If the publication date of a news paper the day it was published, or the last day that someone wrappes up a china set with it before mnoving house.
Oh please help me clear my confussed mind.
There are a few reasons for going to trade shows. so what has microsoft picked.
Try to get people interested in your warez.
Check out what the competition has to offer.
Recruting new staff.
Get a load of fit birds to strip so that no-one even bothers to leave you stand.

pop down to your local store and buy a cheep pc(that linux can run on),
download a linux distribution with xine &co . and stick it on the PC.
convert all you video to a xine compatable format (e.g. mpeg2/divx) and stick them on CD
put the cheep pc, linux distro, and cd's into storage until your old.
Wait a while
Wow the grand-kids with your old tech pc and the videos on it.
You for got the cliping from 0 volts to -1 volts at the begining and the -1 to 0 at the end.
You need to add a little compensation.
