I think Toyota is planning to debut hydrogen cars in Japan, not in america.
With the recent news that they'll be renewing nuclear generation there. Producing hydrogen should be much easily done at the plants.most of the energy to split water can come from thermal, making it much more feasible. Also I don't think Japan has such great oil reserves so switching to a non foreign dependent energy source is smart for the country.
if you have any projects that can be publicly shown, they sometimes speak louder than experience in a resume. (especially if they deal with the technology/skills companies are looking for)
Math is sometimes useful for specific jobs like finance, 3d graphics, and you may find yourself in trouble if trying to grok details of those projects. However strong Logic sense should serve you well on most other projects. overall I think a strong background in algorithms, data structures trumps that of math. You can always look it up or ask someone for those rare cases where you deal with a tricky math problem.
The issue with doing the hash client-side is that now the hash has become the password. If someone steals the list of hashes it's game over, they can just emulate the client sending the hash and the server won't know that they didn't start from the password and perform a hash. The hash must be done server-side.
Not necessarily. If the salt or part of the salt was a "Proof of work" package, it could be offloaded to the client side. i.e. my password is stored in regular hash/salt format, the salt being a challenge string.
The proof of work would be to vary the challenge string on a pre-agreed upon mutation, and produce a hash of the mutated string so that the value starts with 0000. That hash added to a secondary salt based on the challenge string constitutes the actual salt. Naturally the proof of work can vary with hardware improvements.
Now I can off load most of that work to the client to calculate the salt for me.
From a language side, much of the problems you mentioned can be solved via the provided sdk. Like the old CS saying, all computer programming problems can be fixed with adding another layer of indirection. e.g. Memory leaks can be controlled through malloc by just discarding the block after the user leaves the page.
Difference between this and javascript would be that there's little waste features like a GC that runs in the background. Overall getting C/C++ to compile has much more research and accumulated experience then Javascript. This would close the 10x gap between current native JS vs C app.
>compiling C is not necessarily all that fast. Compile time does matter for the web. I would welcome data about relative compile speeds of C and JS, though; I don't have hard data on this.
JS is now both interpreted and compiled. It is first run in interpreted mode, when the optimizer figures out which code/function should be optimized, it would compile that block, and point the execution pointer of that call to the new native code instead of running the interpreted branch. Thus compilation runs on a backend thread and time is somewhat irrelevant. Same could be done for C.
This actually brings an interesting point, why compile from source each time, huge amount of processing power is wasted from analyzing the syntax and performing the first few passes on the code. This would suck the power from a mobile device quicky. A better solution is to include an intermediary bytecode directly into the page. It would require very little translation/linking to convert into final native code.
Here's an idea, why don't browsers allow developers to embed direct C code.
each browser includes some standard static libraries for the calls the code can make, which would provide the sandboxed environment.
When the page loads, the browser can fire up gcc to do the compiling prior to running.
Everything would then be native, No more effort spent on trying to optimize a language what wasn't meant to be fast in the first place.
it would be much more power efficient to run on mobile devices too as you don't have to have the overhead these dynamic languages impose like garbage collection, and tracing/optimzation.
reminds me of the thought experiment that a sphere passing through a 2d plane would appear to the 2d residents as an expanding than fading circle.
what if this is something similar. an energetic 4D object that crosses our 3D plane. The EM-waves emitted by the phenomenon should also be moving through. We could detect if particles dissapear by bouncing it around in a containment field.
There is the additional time of of a deorbit burn. the missile needs to lose its orbital velocity prior to starting its descent. The shuttle fires its retro rockets 1 hour before landing as a reference. A missle may do this faster with stronger and longer firing of retro rockets, but I think there is still ample warning, and I would think a faster deorbit would reduces accuracy.
Allow checkin in secure locations like your local police station. Then have an armed escort via bus to the airport, where you can walk straight in. (Doesn't have to be the police station, anywhere meeting standards set out by the checkin requirement can do it.)
There's plenty of anonymous proxies that one can visit to get access to wikipedia.
Also any search on answers.com among others meta search engines usually brings up a cache of the related article in wikipedia.
There's really no point in blocking wikipedia, except the few extra seconds it will cost to re-route the request via the various proxy services.
I wonder if anyone higher up in the government will have enough smarts to realize this and drop the whole goldem condom fiasco. Maybe they can end the campagne with a big "Mission Accomplished" logo.

the "batteries" work so well in space due to the temperature difference of close to absolute zero and the tempreature generated by nuclear fission. On earth, you don't get that huge of a temperature gap, so you wont get as much energy from the same amount of fission.
The money handout scheme is written right now is (1-(new record/previous record))*50000.

Why else would Bush be pushing for the missile shield to be installed? So that when the U.S starts stirring up things in the middle east and far east, There will be an umbrella to stop the retaliations from striking back.
It is highly likely that the plan was already set in motion decades before and that the reason for the missile shield defense was a direct result of this line of thinking.

Make A vector renderer to render a few vector layers to raster tiles at different resolutions.
Make a a spacial database to index those raster tiles, 13 levels deep.
DHTML to query and load those image ties from the spacial DB to image containers. and display them on screen.
A serverside app to generate a polyline from two addresses.
A serverside app to render a polyline to a transparent png.
DHTML to piece together the overlaying objects.
Add a beta logo as it is still buggy.

I can think of an algorithm to compress it to an extreamly small percentage of original. Encode the information as 3 constants A:B:C where A is the starting index, B is the ending index, and C is a string of the mathmatical formula.. in this case "PI".
Compression/Decompression will take awhile though. Maybe one day with quantum computers this could become a new compression scheme.

For this solution, I think pirate 5 will take the more real world approach of asking pirates 2,3,4 to kill pirate 1, pirate 4 & 3 to kill pirate 2 afterwards, and pirate 5 and 3 to try to kill pirate 4.
assuming greater numbers win, and that the pirates will not object to being terminated one by one due to greed of a bigger split of the pot, that leaves either pirate 3 or 4 alive at the end, depending on which one pirate 5 likes the best. I say 3 because he would be additionally motivated by being promoted after the final deed. finally, pirate 5 can conveniently ask pirate 3 to go on an errand in some shark infested waters making pirate 5 the last pirate standing, and taker of the pot.
I had a similar idea a while back of using 2 cameras aligned side by side. each with a servo motor to give it 20 degrees of freedom either way. By taking a snapshot of both images, you could use motion detection routines (i.e same ones used to encode mpeg)to see how far the images differ from each other and move the camera's angles until the 2 images virtually parallel each other. Then, taking the angles of the cameras, a simple triangulation calculation would tell approximately how far an object is to the camera. A passive range finder if you will. The advantages of using 2 pictures is that you would do a lot of easy image processing routines to figure out the walls and ceilings without having to work with just a cloud of points. I called my invention.. "2 cameras on a stick". Alas I didn't have the funding to pursue the idea further.
Microwaves work on principle of heating up water molecules in food. I'd imagine it works on similar principle in expanding the air mostly by exciting the water molecules within it. If so, I would think that water molecules are much more abundant at sea level then a few miles up, and non existant past the troposphere. Making microwave not practical for any long distance lifting. I'd imagine it'd be more practical to build a launch pad on top of a fairly high mountain and fire rockets from there.
If each user had a quota of say 1000 or even 10000 emails sent a month free, and have an emails fee for additional emails, that would help reduce spam while not pissing off the regular users. Another thought is to have each server that re-routes the email to charge a small cost when the quota has been exceeded, that way the spammers that use their dedicated smtp servers will still have to pay.
It's a well known fact that sperms are great swimmers. I think it just swam the distance from the male shark to the lady shark.
I was born the same way. My mom had me while my dad was in vietnam. And "little" me had to swim across the ocean like the salmon swimming home. Oddly enough thou, I'm not a great swimmer.

Farmer Joe: By bejesus your right Ted. It's a makin me hungry. I could eat a whole pig right now. Where you rekon it's comin from Ted?
Farmet Ted: I think it's George.. he's sizzling in his own crisco juices.
