Now, going against all political correctness, what about the versioning system coming with.Net? It's clean, powerful, easy to use and was built from the ground up for collaborative development. Yeah it may be from M$, but it's still a powerful option. Why shoot yourself in the foot just on the basis of "we don't like them"? Even if the product is better?
This is a good point. Obviously overlooked by the posts so far. Linear motors have been around for quite a while, with a drastic slowing in the true integration of the design. However maglevs are a much more affordable way to generate similar results.
The opportunities, especially in the transportation and space applications are great. Too bad this generally gets such limited exposure. Soon unfortuanately it will go the way of the Wankle Rotary engine and the supercollider. Thanks to all the fossil fuel lobby's.

AT&T or factions of the monolith will be the last one standing. They, even though deregulated have been lobbying very hard for 10 years to create a climate in which ILEC's and CLEC's cannot survive do to legislation such as schools and library taxes and surcharges. Look they own the last mile and as owners are charging the CLEC's and other local resellers out the yaya. Basically the CLEC, within the law only make about 0.02 on the dollar as it is. AT&T for all it's bumbling has proven to have stood the test of time by sticking with it's strategic direction. Long live the monopoly of AT&T, they are the only ones who will truly keep our local access rates down./
If Lessig cannot get simple matters of policy as these correct, then why should we pay him any attention elsewhere? We should stick with people like Richard M Stallman, who know not to compromise on important principles. M
Lessig could have corrected these "simple matters of policy" corrected if it weren't for people like Richard Stallman. Look, the issues are not nearly as simple as they appear. Allthe free love crowd like stallman, have made it increasingly harder for folks like Lessig to accomplish the task at hand. When it all boils down it's politics and the end consumer. Who's gonna win? You may think it will be the consumer but the political drivers will always come out on top.
Through aggressive product development, near-perfect execution, and very strong arms, NVIDIA rose to the top of the industry. Today, NVIDIA owns all of 3dfx's intellectual property, has numerous OEM PC deals and has recently become Apple's default high-performance desktop graphics provider. Soon we'll see the mobile GeForce2 Go shipping in laptops from Toshiba, and we can't forget the upcoming introduction of NVIDIA's next generation NV20 GPU. After that, NVIDIA can look forward to the launch of Xbox as well as its new line of motherboard chipsets.
In a word. . . Bullshit
Heres why. First the product development efforts was less than agressive and the execution of the implementation was so poor that most mods were never even tested. NVIDIA is one of those companies that never really understood that the eighties were over. Leverage buyouts of other peoples IP based solely on future profits is a recipie for disaster. The GeForce2 efforts are not ready for delivery to Toshiba and Toshiba is pissed. Unfortunately Toshiba is on the hook for delivery and the'r going to be stuk until NV20. The X offering is only a pipedream at this point.
Look, efforts like this are based upon the waiting for little companies to develop a similar offering and then they buy up the little guy, re-lable the IP and sell it as their own. We in the end are the ones who get screwed because product hits the street late and is not ready for prime time.
Web servers are not revenue stream. Banks like Perl? No, entry level developers who work in bank development shops like perl. The management of most financial institutions don't even know what perl is. They could care less. They only know that "their IT advisors" (IT guy on board) says Open Source is bad because we don't own it, and bad guy hackers may have put in "back doors" As lame as this seems, I can see 348's point and I agree on the whole "revenue Stream" thing. I don't think he/she was referring to productivity applications.
Should be dynamic. Keep some basic guidelines, such as three letter TLD's and then just deal with it.
The controlling parties know that by introduction of a schema like this, they would lose their stranglehold on the pay for TLD services, regisrtation etc, and in the end the power they hold would be lost, so woulld the profits. The massive amount of stonewalling to keep the few TLD's out there is really getting old.
Open 'em up, lose the regulation and force the TLD controllers to change their business model. Now it's a striking similarity to the US area code system running only a dozen or so area codes.
Motorolla is not doing anything here that any other worldwide e-commerce company is. They are mapping demographic data against their marketing efforts to either more sharply target their market or to analyze how to ramp up into other markets. It's not like they want your SSN or your blood type. Lighten up, this is as harmless as cookies, how could they possiblyu use this information to do harm? It's not like the fed is snooping in your home, it;s simply commercial data. More companied aught to follow suit, it would save on the enourmouse amounts of spam we reveive daily, from comercials, banners, billboards and telemarketers.
Am I wrong, or have they even IPO'd yet? Still the same, I do agree.. It seems like rumors in this manner can do nothing
but push the IPO harder..
Strongly disagree. Here's why.
First off, in the article, there was nothing fully substanciated. "Sources say" etc. Secondly they stated something along the lines of that they will be speaking soon of the status of their "cooperation". yadda yadda yadda.
In my view, it's false, and I agree with the hoax theory, staged or not. I think this will hurt transmeta for thier IPO later this week. This, if "leaked" without the full blessing of AMD will make TM look very foolish and not very trustworthy. Would you put money into a company that played games like this in such a shallow manner? I would'nt.
Who knows, maybe Intel is behind the whole thing to make 'em both look like amatures in the big leagues. Before the flames come, the Intel though was just sarcasm.
Sure you can. Fair use etc. Also there is the Negroponti analogy of the library. You borrow a book from the library and everyone else has to wait for you to return it before you can check it out again. Borrow a book from the digital library and there is always one left. So what's the difference between copying a bit at stealing a bit?

Heh, but it doesn't have to be that way. Look at Clearcase. Good gui and gobs of functionality. Too bad it's so expensive.

This is the most entertaining post in the thread. Moderators, please mod this up, I deserves a little exposure in such a dry thread.

LOL! Maybe I should have checked. Looked good to me though.
I wonder what would happen to the earths atmosphere, oceans etc. if the object did hit the moon?
And no V'ger jokes? WTF? This is /. isn't it?
Hey, if nothing else, I'd give you a +1 just for spelling catacalysmic correctly.
Egg and Bacon McMuffin's? Personally I like apple or hair pi.
The analogy was imagine the US area code system with only 12 area codes. Folks, would be selling their phone numbers on EBAY.

He He, Something tells me that this is really pretty unrelated to the daily dose of flame Rob receives.
You're getting much better at this. Your new format is a bit more pleasant to the eye.
Wrong it's why that's, illegal that's.
