No, since we already have phase-locked loops to generate the 4.5 GHz or whatever clock, and dividers to turn that into 3.0 GHz. As I understand it, the only benefit of this new resonator is increased frequency accuracy, which wouldn't matter in a PC.
Side note: don't refer to them as C/C++/Obj-C. You could refer to the C family of languages, or name them as C, C++, and Objective-C. Saying you like C/C++ will only get annoyance from others, since the two languages are distinct and singificantly different entities. That is all.
The language is overly complex. The key advice any C++ expert is "restrict yourself to a specific subset of C++". That's the bulk of the difficulty. If C++ were simplified to include only that subset, you'd have a lot less need for training
And less libraries. A key C++ feature is facilities for library providers to make types that behave as if they were built in. Even though the application developer doesn't use these facilities directly, if taken away the libraries would go with them. It is of great value to be able to effectively extend the language for specialized domains, just by writing (or having someone experienced) write a library. Boost is a great example of what is possible.
"Son, Fuck is a bad word that people don't like. Try not to say it in public or around your teacher. Also, don't use it around your parents, it's disrespectful."
You almost got it right. "Son, "fuck" is word, like any other, which people use to express themselves. Many people are irrationally offended by even hearing the word, so you should keep this in mind before using it. There lots of things that people have hang-ups about, for no rational reason, and can't even rationally discuss their hang-up. And by the way, I am one of those people, so don't use it around me."
And no way to waive these fees if you just casually surf the web and check e-mail. Looks like they just hit on the perfect idea to get paid without having to do a fucking thing. FUCK THE RIAA.
How hard is it to look for the "Print version" w/o ads and link to that?
I figure that once everyone starts linking to the "no fucking ads so we can read the article comfortably" link, they'll stop providing it. I, for one, would like this feature to continue to exist.
The person who rents everything is utterly dependent on a high, steady stream of income can't survive even a short interruption or reduction in that stream. It's a very insecure and anxiety-provoking way to live.
This person also depends on the provider staying afloat. They go under, there goes whatever was being rented.
It looks like they understood this now, and reacted by making that "minimal kernel" stuff on the next windows (even a non graphic server version), and by planning to release it one year early.
So, a tool allows customers to more quickly find information on a company's website. That's bad. The customer should instead get frustrated and have to wade through lots of crap to find the information. No wonder I hate more and more modern websites. I love Google's site: feature and use it all the time to cut through the crap. Also, Google often shows top-level pages under a search result, for example searching for slashdot gives several news sections as sub links under the first result. Of course a company is always free to put up a robots.txt that tells all search engines not to index their site, if they are worried about customers finding useful information there via a search.
After all don't we all have tape over the flashing 88:88's already?
Turn in your geek card. They usually flash 12:00, thereby wearing out only some of the elements, so years later when you finally set the time, the numbers are partly dimmed (fluorescent displays).
I remember once getting an incensed missive from the owner of asdfg.com who complained about emails we were sending him regarding updates of our product. Turned out that a user had entered that domain when he registered the product in an attempt to not get our emails.
I usually just do admin@domain, where domain is the domain of the stupid website I'm trying to access which pointlessly requires me to register first. The solution is to not require registration, rather than trying to block all the bullshit addresses the user might enter.
The camera-based gesture recognition device is in no way designed to - or capable of - monitoring your living room. These technologies are designed to allow simple navigation on a television set just as the Wii remote uses a camera to manage its much heralded gesture-based interactivity.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but the Wii camera can see people. The question is whether this image gets interpreted by a dedicated processor that runs non-reprogrammable code. Seems unlikely, therefore with a simple reflashing of its ROM, it'd be able to take images. Note how he emphasizes its design. Sounds similar to laws that are claimed to be for benign purpose A, but later are used for evil purpose B since they never prevented it.
No problem; they'll just do what the printer ink cartridge manufacturers do: Build in a chip that commits suicide after some specified period of time. That could be in hours of operation, or even calendar time. In the latter case, you're virtually renting them.
Or perhaps lower manufacturing/material quality until their average life falls greatly. Then they could justify it by the slightly lowered cost.
My laptop has no problem connecting to public networks that don't do SSID broadcasts, it just sees them in other packets that are flying around. Not broadcasting the SSID just means that it needs to see other traffic before it knows they exist. Broadcasting the SSID just means that if no one else is talking, I can find the WAP myself.
If you ever decided to do security, hopefully for some company that makes ATM machines or something like that, let me know, I need some extra spending money.
Really now, that was uncalled for. Is this always how you deal with people when you misunderstand them? I'd hate to work for/with you. The goal here was to make intentional use of a WiFi easy to determine, not to secure it. Since having a password is probably one thing that dissuades people from enabling it, I figured hiding the SSID was another way of sending the message to others "don't use my WiFi" while also helping them to avoid accidentally using it with the default connect strategy. Apparently it's not.
Slashdot Mirror

What about it? If the goal is higher accuracy, having higher cost in the form of more silicon (a longer divider) is generally going to be expected.

OK, looks like they used to be called "Apple Computer, Inc." and now just "Apple Inc." (result of recent legal activity with Apple Records?)

Wow, I've never heard of Apple Computers. I guess Apple Computer is a lot more well-known?
I thought it was going to be about obsolete TCP ports, like 21, 70, 79, etc. Does this earn me an upgrade to my geek card?
You almost got it right. "Son, "fuck" is word, like any other, which people use to express themselves.

Heh, funny you fixed that, since I was debating that spelling while making the post...
That's why I get my news only from objective sources like Fox News.

Everyone knows that NERF guns are just a gateway weapon. It's just a slippery slope to them using real guns and rocket launchers.
Unless the person talking on the cell phone is dead, the heat probably comes from his body.
You're apparently the first one to actually read the article. You must be new here.
This person also depends on the provider staying afloat. They go under, there goes whatever was being rented.
So Windows 7 in 2011 instead of 2012?

Well, if the OS doesn't have to be *nix, you could run Windows Vista on it. Maybe.
