Because it's faster and cheaper to just chuck more RAM in the machine. And you get about the same effect by using a USB stick for readyboost on windows or swap+logs on Linux.
If the parent post is on topic, the poster is referring to the BC provincial budget recently passed. The governing party claims that it is balanced but several economists etc. who have been interviewed in the media say that it achieves being balanced by liquidating provincial assets and predicting unrealistic revenues from natural gas wells that have not been drilled yet.
or howzabout the Leutenant Governors office signing ppls certs... or more likely the Ministry of Citizens' Services and Open Government or whatever the equivalent is in each province... so you go to your "Access Centre" or "FrontcounterBC" or whatever it's being called this week and it's the same as getting a drivers license or provincial ID.
Actually no, that's not how virtual memory works. Given enough swap and a small enough working set (the amount of allocated ram actually being accessed actively at one time) for each process, a system could have many tens of times as much memory allocated as physical RAM.
I encountered a question on a (university!) CS exam asking how much swap space should be allocated for a particular system... as we did not know the workload, my answer was (in depth) it depends... NOPE wrong, 2x RAM.... WTF?!?

It is a great shame that any discussion of novel monetary policy which mentions the ownership of the Fed as a limiting factor gets accused of being associated with schitzophrenic delusions and/or anti-semitism.
The US Federal Reserve Bank is literally a privately held cartel. This is a statement of fact, and it has monetary policy implications. My original comment was about a specific method of quantitative easing which would be more difficult without a national currency or with a privately held central bank. This is not a conspiracy theory, it is monetary policy.
Most money now does enter circulation as bank account balances countered by interest bearing loans. This is a very usefull system. Without it I and probably the vast majority of people in the western world would not own any real estate. Sadly though it has nasty side effects in a contracting economy. This is not a conspiracy theory, it is economics.
Actually nearly all money in circulation is created as debt, which must be repaid with interest (that was created as debt that must be repaid with interest). Governments printing a little money (say enough to pay for their entire non-capital, non-military budget AND eliminate poverty) would probably help the economy so long as it was done quietly. In countries with a high currency due to a single resource being exported the effect could be even bigger.
Of course this only works in countries that have their own currency (so not most of the eurozone) and the central bank is not a privately held cartel (so not the USA)
If however you need some information now about a topic that becomes obsolete rapidly, why not save money, resources, and shelf space by getting it electronically?
I have 2. My personal is an ancient Acer ZG5 with 8GB slow SSD running Kubuntu, works like a charm. My work one is an ASUS T101MT (laptop/tablet hybrid) running Win7 Pro (too many contracting companies send windows-only tools) Also works like a charm - with system protection and indexing off, a large class 10 SD card for readyboost, mydefrag and ntregopt run after any updates, and NO bloatware installed .
As far as I'm concerned, the netbook is a very nice form factor for mobile use, I use it for longer tasks (paperwork, configuring routers, etc) along side my tablet (for instant emails), and plug it into keyboard, mouse, and monitor when I'm in the office. If someone made a fast netbook sized rotateable screen device (like T101MT) with a stand with power+epcie connector dock it would be ideal.

Fortunately, Ron Paul is not a candidate in the BC provincial election.
Blood oxygenation as well. Very handy info to have if you need it, but if you need it you probably should be in the hospital.
clearly you have not met my mother.
Are you OK with a 1 year like expectancy on your car's air filter?

Just because it is possible to code badly in an language does not mean you can only code badly.

Installing an AV on an already infected system is often difficult.
Thanks, it did the trick.
Also, cursor keys on the on-screen keyboard...

US treasury is not the US' central bank, the Federal Reserve is.

But between you and 1000 other people who care about slightly different sets, much of it is stuff that someone cares about.
Possible, but not as likely.
All the curlers are gonna rush to the pharmacy. They're all in a hurry, hurry hard!
Do not eat them. Lead is only a concern if you're putting them in your mouth, which you should not do with strong magnets anyways.
Vertically integrating one of your main suppliers would probably not reduce profit margins as much as stopping production because you can't get parts.
