"It is NOT ANY governments' responsibility to protect you or anyone else from "bad" ideas. This is the very definition of censorship. If you have kids it is YOUR responsibility to educate them about the "bad" stuff out there."
Agreed. What i was trying to point out was that there infact are bad things on the internet. It's not only good things you can find there to educate you and your children etc..
> or anything else that might shape them into better, more productive members of society.
Are you not aware of how many sick things can be found on the net? The article clearly states that they are trying to ban the bad stuff not the good stuff which can help in making the kids grow up into better people.
I don't know if it's a good or bad thing to try to censorship the internet but there are sure as hell a lot of things we could do without on the net.
If this technology really works well, it could solve a great many problems associated with computer displays (size, heat generation, cost, etc.)
I think not!!! Probably it will cost a lot more than other technologies and even if one can make it cheaper then everything else on the market you could probably not use it becourse of a to low refresh frequency.
The most important thing mentioned here is that your old employee will think that you are not Loyal and will not give you any raise in the future etc..
But your new employee may think 'Hey he way so unloyal to his old employee that he accepted my offer. Will he accept another offer in say 6 month from another company'.
So i think the only thing you need to think about is if you are happy at your current job or not. If you are stick to it. If not try the other one.
I'm not very sophisticated at direct(...) programming etc. but when i read all this i wonder if it is not possible to approach the problem from another direction.
I mean it is obvious that WinX is not the best sollution becourse there will always be new games which will not work. Also porting is a lot of work to do for every new game.
I wonder if it is possible to write something like a new programming language which can then compile the games easely for Wintendo and Linux. I think that the game producers will be happy if there is such a programming language, so there games will work on any OS. Sure thing they will have a lot of work at the beginning but for the future this should be nice to have.
Anyone know if it is even possible to write a language which can do this???
Please correct me if i'm wrong but i thought that the 'Data' transmission is not because of the fiber line but because of the end applications which should handle the data.
I mean in the theory you have unlimited frequencies to transmit data with but this data must somehow be handled. So it's more a matter of in and output into the fiber lines.
First of all if you don't know how to behave then i would say you should think if you ever post again.
Maybe my english is not good enough or maybe you just don't can or want to understand what i'am trieng to say. I now that in the and JSP become Servlets. What i'm speaking about is the readability of the code. Not what happens when the code is executed/ interpreted/ etc.. Same thing with the HTML wrapper classes. I'm realy curios if you are just to dump to understand or what. Sure i know that in the background some HTML tags get send to the Browser. The idea is that YOU don't have to do it yourself. Again that has something to do with the readability of your code.
My hole reply was ONLY about the readability of JSP vs. Servlets. So please, the next time you feel the need to reply, try to understand what the article is about.
If you buy a projektor be sure to take a good one. This is essential. If you don't want to spend at least 4k$ then let it be. The cheaper projectors (around 2k$) are shit. You will have to buy a new Bulb every 100 - 200 hours. The lumens and Brightness is bad and white is not realy white.
in Germany. I don't know how this is handled in the US but in Germany it does not realy matter what you study.
You study to expand your mind and to show that you are capable to learn and use stuff which you need at work.
The only thing that matters is what you realy can. In the extreme you even don't need to study if you somehow can evince what you can.
So i would say go into CIS and use your extra power to learn a few extra things or maybe to get a job.
For that matter that you have already worked in a company and have some experience in teamwork etc. is more important than what you study or your degree.
As a matter of fact i have. Not into DB2 but into several other Databases. I have never used DB2 but it's language should be similar to other databases. So the Conversion is possible.
As for the code part. If there is a jdbc driver for DB2 i see no problem. Sure it's up to the Code but feasible.
So please explain yourself. Did i miss something?
Maybe the reason is that i've already done similar things and things which seem trivial to me seem difficult to you?
The first problem would be to somehow import your Databases to DB2. Oracle offers quite some methods to export data and in the meanest case you must export to a txt file and than import everything into DB2. This should only take a few days.
The part about the Code is up t the code. In jdbc you sould only need to adapt the Database driver. This should be only one line of Code in each Application. I think C and C++ should be the same. So if you are lucky this should also take only a few days.
Considering possible mistakes and some evaluation time you should hopefully only need 1-2 weeks
On the other hand... imagine running Daisy atop Windows, sitting inside a VMWare instance on Linux on Daisy on an S/390!
If i'm not completly wrong you can't run Linux on Daisy on a s/390. You could run Linux programms if you like but not install the hole operating system.
Plus, parsing HTML to extract one little field of data is tricky, and highly dependant on the layout of the page.
Besides the layout of the page there is always the posibility of (big?) mistakes in the HTML code. I work for a big German Newspaper Company and know for a fakt that even sites with big money have a lot of mistakes in HTML pages (which are somehow corrected by Netscape/ IE).
So you are damn right. Until we have a standard for all websites, which will take a lot of time, forget it!!!
I can not imagine that the article realy means that they want to reuse some of the component's. That simply make no sens. No matter how valueable the component was when bought after 5-10 Year's it's of no value anymore.
Recycling them does only make sens if you want to get rid of them becourse there are parts and components which can not be recycled without spezial care. If this parts could be easily extracted than the hole recycling prozess could be much cheaper.
But even then until the Glue is ready to use and the Companies are willing to use it where will the industry be. I mean it's realy possible that in 10 Years a hole PC will be one Microchip or that you will only have a Terminal and use the Supercomputer of your ISP or something like that.
They are tring to juggler a few things. Like they say a 2.5GB Tiff file is only 3MB big in DjVu. I have never seen a tiff file on a web page. It would be nice to see how it compares with... let's say jpg. Even the approach to compare this to formats is absurd.
Harddisk are so cheap nowadays that i real wonder who will need to write and even rewrite DVDR's even if the price's drop like hell.
The only reason to use CDR's is to transport Data (and maybe backup's) and normaly 650M should be enough. So a DVDR makes only sens if you need more than 650M. And even than DVD has a long way to go until there is a standard and ever DVD can read any DVDR.
So i think until there is no standard for DVD's there is no market for it. And even than i don't think that a few crack's who want to copy movie's and people who need to store great amount's of data on a transportable media will be enough to drop the price on a level where DVDR's will be a mass-produced article.

an Patent Horror Gallery. This could/should be just one of them.
Maybe someone should Patent HyperLinks :)

Nice. And it will take only a few weeks and then there is a crack which will mask the Files so that they can not be tracked anymore...

Right

And have you ever felt the need to copy this CDs?
DVD is nice but why DVDR?
