The bottom line is that PHP can be very casual and python can be very scientific. So for someone that wants to whip up a web page, PHP is what I'd recommend. My bias is I'm from a C background and the curly braces are nice. I don't like having to adhere to a particular format to make the language work, make huge long lines, or use weird line-continuation separators. That's also what I hated about VB.
Dudes, it's not just storage. For a basic SAN you have provisioning costs, management costs, licensing costs to spread across the users. Then you have support costs, like changing permissions and stuff. With version control you're probably keeping snapshots of that GB as well, and tape, going back months, years or even decades. There's a lot more to it than storage. But still, that's a lot. I have an account with rsync.net and we have 1.5TB with them and it's a few hundred a month. Of course, that's just a backup, it's slow. Whereas our 32TB iscsi SAN (32 1tb SATA across two nodes) was $50K and only stores 10 times that georedundantly.
I help everyone I can. You must provide personal services to get what you want. Most people get charged a fair fee, or I collect my normal salary. It's not a big deal. When I was 22 it was a big deal but eventually you grow up and realize that you get what you give, like John Lennon said.
Once you get to the so called "upper division" they start treating you like a person again and all the people who aren't smart or hard working are gone. The first two years are somewhat of a scam. If it's Soooo easy, go to class, do the homework and pass the tests. It's only a little time, then you get to the real education.
And Ronald Reagan (the actor) really took it to a whole new level when he introduced us to the concept of massive deficit spending. And of course the rise of fake official Christianity also. Studies show the massive arms buildup had less to do with the fall of the Soviet republic than the fact that Russians like to own things.
Duh, it's a vast unexplored badlands. There's uranium, rare earth metals, etc. almost everywhere. Uranium didn't even have a use until what, 1944 or so;) Anyway, the wheel can be a ho but the world keeps spinning.
Actually, a religion is a religion and a cult is a cult. A cult is basically a religion with no political power. Since every operating system in the world is written in C, C++, or Assembly, I'd say C has some power. Since every large company with an enterprise web application solution uses Java (or PHP or C#), I'd say those languages also have some political power. The "cult" is Go, Ruby, Python. Those are the cult languages.
Personally, I think the content is getting more complex, but the programming is the same. Sure, you have multicore and such but the real complexity is packaging content and doing stuff with it. If CMIS or GData or OData (hopefully all will be merged in CMIS 2.0) works the way it should, everything should be reduced to 1. define content 2. define workflow for content
Then the actual "programming" is basically writing the things that manipulate the content in the workflow steps. And if all goes well, most things you'd want to do are already done and just need to be extended to your new content type. Content inheritance has been missing from the web 2.0 thing and that is what will really make web 3.0.
Exactly. And what they have in linux.org is a way to keep the entire thing from exploding on every new bleeding edge thing people want to add. Like what Google is trying to do with the Android pieces. Hack the kernel so it works in a phone setting, that's a fork. Want to commit it back? It should be something valid for all linux uses. So they used wait locks instead of writing a hook or something, because it was easier. Linux.org says "no, do the work so it actually contributes something to the rest of the project and we'll commit your changes."
Google has a big collective ego though, so if there was a major fork that became adversarial, it would probably come from them. I'm sure they have their own kernels for their various node types anyway, I mean, why wouldn't you. Who needs SCSI and audio drivers for a bigtable node? And they have the ability to publish or sell a kernel to a wide audience, argueably bigger than RedHat can.. But it would be a shame, because Linus is really the reason linux is stable, compatible, and the whole ecosystem works. You get a few layers below the kernel and it gets to be a chaotic mess. If there wasn't SOMEONE without a major commercial interest, without an agenda--other than adhering to the original spirit of the project--the kernel would fragment, compatibility would suffer, and everyone would have to make custom kernels for specific applications. That would be bad. In the words of Dr. Dre, "Slow is better. Trust me."
You see the same thing happening in "cloud computing". You still need the same developers, sysadmins, etc. But you're paying for servers three times over time instead of once upfront! Granted it has uses for handling peaks but people who thing you're somehow getting more for less are fools. As if you can mass-produce what a good developer or sysadmin does and expect to have the same quality service. It's not possible, or at least, it's not any more possible than doing that with anything else.
Any outsourcing does this. It seems to be cheaper to a company because there's less committment, especially as far as benefits and worker's comp and all that. But having a dedicated team on a project for 3 or 4 years is the only way a big project gets done.
I view the same thing from cloud computing as a computer person. I can't sell email or collaboration services when people can use google or basecamp for super cheap. And there's bidding programs for software development as well. Once someone figures out that you can just be a project manager and just outsource all the labor.....oh wait, that's IBM.
And further, privacy is about a person being able to shape their personality and appear differently to different groups of people. This is such an important part of personal growth and this index everything maybe fails to take into account what I did when I was 20 is not what I do now. And what I do with my best friends I don't do with my Christian neighbors. This allows people to experience different social situations without having to fully commit. In this way we can make mistakes in private and apply your education to new situations. It's something most people do. When Eric Schmidt said what he said about privacy "If you don't want anyone to know about it, maybe you shouldn't be doing it" he totally killed my faith in Google. Until they fire him and start sucking the knob of liberty, truth and justice and enable ME and not just advertisers to live a more copious existence, *.google.* is permablocked as an EVIL company in my mind.
The politicians just view this as a way to peek into Google while at the same time appearing to be "for privacy" publically.
Dudes, if you don't want your SSID scanned, don't broadcast it. Everything else shooting out should have encryption. I thought it was kindof clever to use the mac address and then geolocate stuff with it. I wish Google would put some time and money into mesh networking and ipv6 multicast though.
The problem is that everyone would do the drugs, we'd get addicted, then there would be a sort of reverse Opium War except instead of the British invading China, it'd be China invading us. Granted, a lot of that is blown out of proportion.
I do think you should have to
A. Be 25 B. Pass a several year course of drug education, from health issues to manufacture. C. Obtain a license from your state D. Restrict use to private places E. Don't drive while doing it, or around the time you're doing it
before you can get the legal stuff. After that, it's pretty much up to the person. Why shouldn't stimulants be legal also? Lots of people are prescribed Ritalin and Adderal.
That reminds me of a pretty funny thing I saw today. There's a group on Facebook advocating that police have to yell "Pikachu!" before tazing anyone. What a country.
They have the zIIP and zAPP processors on the z series mainframes, which are specialty procs. zIIP for database and encryption, zAPP is basically a java VM in hardware. IBM is big, and they have specialty fabs to make silicon for specialty mainframes. Yeah, they are expensive but worth it for some applications.
I was thinking the same thing. OLAP is all about manipulating big 2d and 3d sets, blending them with other sets, etc. All things GPUs have ops for on the die. Not that there aren't already relational db accelerator chips in the mainframe arena (such as the zIIP). Obviously the drivers and front end needs to be remade to make the programming make sense, like OpenDL (data language) instead of OpenGL.

Why does news only have to last 24 hours? Any story worth telling probably has at least a few years worth of action in it. Slow is better. Trust me.

There's something wrong with this Slashvertisement--it's for a free product!
I wasn't talking about cannabis, I was talking about all other drugs.
BTW, I'm for legalization of pot to 21 year olds, my post was about all other drugs (cocaine, heroin, etc.)
You're joking, right?
Oh and F. hang around with a real addict or two for a few days.
The problem is that everyone would do the drugs, we'd get addicted, then there would be a sort of reverse Opium War except instead of the British invading China, it'd be China invading us. Granted, a lot of that is blown out of proportion.
