Oh come on thats bull. I simply don't understand why programmers can't do thier own garbage collection. Its not even that hard (delete). He'd be programming in OOP too, so all that could easily be put in a destructor or two (or three..).
I know other languages may be better suited for this task, but C++ does satify enough of the requirements. Could someone please explain why, a language should do its on Garbage Collection
In the current state of the PVR's, they are not going to make any money from video sales and/or rental. There is realistically no way for them to make money from these devices. (Unlike with the VCR).
Don't get me wrong I think it sucks too, maybe they should just require the tivo (or other PVR) to show a key frame for 2-5 seconds (preferably 2:)) while the user is fast forwarding.
I don't think the TV remote eroded ad viewing at all. Most (if not all) Broadcast channels go to commercial at the same exact time. Someone told me it was an FCC Regulation. (Probably not) The only way advertisers are going to get people to watch is to make them entertaining.
By reading the article you linked too. I could still conclude that the ends don't justify the means. Condition 3 (from the initial list) states: "the good effect must be produced directly by the action" i.e. killing and such is bad, so the good that comes from the act of killing is bad. However, if one where to test a drug, and a participant would get sick or die, it would be excusable. "The agent may not positively will the bad effect but may merely permit it."
I could be misinterpreting it but that's my take on it.
I don't think the system would just arbitrarily send data. I imagine each user with list of availible files, and a list of wanted files. Each of which would need to be asked for. At least thats how I would do it.
So, Does a cop asking for your list and then a file constitute soliciting?
The devices used to "Strip" macrovision were around before macrovison. They are simply RCA - to Coax connectors called RF Modulators you can buy them for $10 at Radio Shack.
I doubt its true but someone once told me that VCR's with RCA inputs had include a macrovision chip to scramble the signal.
Gravity has nothing to do with the speed of rotation. Its not intuitive, and its putting my physics circuits into overload:). We have geosynchronous satellites. If you are orbiting at the same speed as the rotation of the earth, you are still orbiting. More Info.
I hope your joking, (IMO Frontpage is a POS) if your using anything on windows use telnet (or PuTTY) to a *nix box a format in n/troff:) Personally whenever I use Windows I prefer to use Notepad, maybe wordpad if I need mild formatting. For web development, or just small html document creation, nothing beats Macromedia Dreamweaver.
I (try to) read a lot of Sci-Fi. I find it hard to find good books. Mainly because most of my friends don't really like reading Sci-Fi, they are more into Fantasy Sci-Fi. I just ordered The Forever War from Amazon.com. I recently read Douglas Adams, The Hitchhikers Guide Series, and loved it; I couldn't put the first book down (took me about 6 hours). I read Arthur C. Clarks Rama Series. I have also read most of Michael Crichton's books mainly because they were around.:)
Anyone got any recommendations? I am about to start reading Isaac Asimov's Foundation, and have given up on Douglas Adams' The Long Dark Tea-Time of the Soul. Dirk is just annoying.
It would be nice to see the source for your perl scripts. I have a Hauppauage WinTV-Go, and I am about to switch my desktop pc over to linux, I was going to do something like that (I do use linux just up till now it was not my desktop OS).
I fail to see how that comment is related to the discussion. Google has used PageRank for a LONG time, the feature the article is about lets the USER's vote for web pages. PageRank is the system they use to allow other pages rank a site. "Google interprets a link from page A to page B as a vote, by page A, for page B."
Thats when you go out and buy a dual head video card. When I bought mine, I did so for bragging rights (Which I am hereby implementing:)) but after I started using it, I am totally addicted, I can have a developer studio open on one monitor and another open on the other, or all my little apps on one (MP3 Play, Instant Messengers. Any combination of applications. Drool...
I'm in a class learning it now. Boy does it seem usless (Mainly becuase I know Perl:)) Just keep telling myself "keep an open mind untill you get used to it".
Why does every need quicktime pro? I think you just need quicktime 5, I downloaded it and it worked fine. Its amazing the quality they can get through a stream.
I ship tons of stuff via USPS, and have never had a problem. I could be wrong, but I believe a majority of USPS's business is from consumers, not corporations, so there intent is to please the customer not the company.
At the community college I went to. We used one of those chips in a systems integrations class. We had to wire it up on a bread board and make it talk. The professor gave us a bunch of statments we had to replicate, and we had to make it say them.
Since it was also a programming class we also had to write a phoneme to audio program (the program only told the ship what to "say")
A date of around 2300 BC for the impact may also cast new light on the legend of Gilgamesh, dating from the same period. The legend talks of "the Seven Judges of Hell", who raised their torches, lighting the land with flame, and a storm that turned day into night, "smashed the land like a cup", and flooded the area.

Just buy an RF Modulator from Radio Shack. $10 bucks. :)

Yeah I seen that episode of the simpsons too. (CABF17)

And my purposes in lifes would be to be killed over-and-over again by Arthur. I can't remember but wasn't it Agrajag?

Yahoo! Mail has pop access. I use it, they send you an ad about once a week. Its really not bad, and its pretty fast.

Assembly is definatly a programming language (A 2nd generation programming language to be exact). Ahh Assembly, now that was fun to learn :)
I'm in a class learning it now. Boy does it seem usless (Mainly becuase I know Perl :)) Just keep telling myself "keep an open mind untill you get used to it".
Hell of an easy sort though

I we could have kept the chips :)
I forgot to mention that the male voice is the one that sounds the most lifelike.
Text to speech can sound very lifelike, the first time I used AT&T TTS I was shocked at how realistic it was. check it out here. http://www.research.att.com/~mjm/cgi-bin/ttsdemo

That is from the article.
