Actually, if you read up on it. A farmer did NOT enter a contract. A wind blew across the prairie and infected his field with GMO plants. on some fields to a level of 2 or 3%. He never grew Monsanto canola, nor did he try to. Unfortunately, the wind cross-pollinated and now Monsanto owns his crop and livelyhood.
It is a great scam. Plant seeds you own the patent on next ot a farmers field. Wait for cross-polination from birds, bees and wind - and then assume ownership of said farmer's crop for patent infringement....
I don't like the idea of a digital ump... no arguments, no bad calls, no leaning into the pitch to make it look more inside.......and worst of all...no more strikes
..and Boeing airlines is simply the "commercial arm of a... aerospace firm"
don't forget that Boeing gets far more than contracts for the aircraft. The US government pays for those aircraft... and you need to check the subsidy....
did you know that Boeing pays no state taxes? That they have have reduced taxes in their commercial airplane group (CAG) for those of us that worked there....
The government funds Boeing commercial airlines... the F15s and Deltas are subsidized and paid for by the military too....
again... there is no government that does not subsidise their own companies... they all do it - we do it they do it the other does it...... wake up we are no beter than anybody else... i mean.... pork barrelling was created in the US
The subsidy of the Airbus was actually a reponse to the subsidy of Boeing by the US government. The US subsidizes Boeing, Steel, Lumber and charges tarifs on imports of same....
the tarif is to compensate for the foreign subsidies... that were created to fight American subsidies....
Not that unlikely. Many goverment agencies and large corporations sub-divisions funciton on use-it-or-lose-it budgets.... It leaves them spending at the end of the fiscal just to ensure that they keep their budget...
SAP isn't a database. It is a software package, a collection of programs like PeopleSoft and Oracle Applications, which allows for the management HR, payroll, and industry specific applications... SAP software still runs best on Oracle databases, although they will never limit themselves to that statement. SAP is database independent and mySql is just another tool that they can use for marketing
This not a threat to Oracle. Oracle released 9i 18 months ago, with FULL support for Red Hat Linux, on Intel boxes. Oracle's new paradigm is cheap equipment on Linux OS, with up to 64 nodes in the cluster. This is scalable, highly available and the OS/hardware are cheap (about 2.5K/node. No. Oracle already read this one... I'll still choose Oracle, but with Linux as the OS and Intel as the hardware and keep my job.
which reminds me of the other day when one of the guys phoned from the other side of the cube wall... just develop the app, it'll be quicker than teaching us to talk to each other.
While my comment is rather redundant, it is the speed and efficiency that is the problem with all OO databases seen to date. If the OO store works with the Java objects in a serialized fashion - why not just use data files???? They would work the same - with better speed.
It is the data inter-relation and dependency that is lost with the OO model. The apps would need to manage all of the foreign keys and data integrity issues... kind of like re-inventing the wheel.

Karma Burn is right! Time to reset my threshhold. This is completely childish.
