If you take a mobile enabled sight, you're almost always guaranteed to get at least 2 IP's per user(one mobile usability, one desktop ease), but if you take a corp-LAN, you're almost guaranteed to have 1-1 user/IP.
And actually... this is even worse. If you access it via phone access, most carriers only have a handful of gateways to the external world. For Cingular, I believe there are two. So no matter how many people access the page using a Cingular phone, you'd see one of two gateway IP's.
Actually, that's more true than you think. A few months back in southern Maryland, some punk was suspected of arson, but he claimed to be at home... so they pulled the cell records and found out that he wasn't at home and happened to go to all the places involved. I believe he confessed then.
I've gotten screwed multiple times by an employer/boss offering raises, bonuses, additional time off, etc. Unless it's in writing, I don't place any value on it... but remember that most managers are risk-adverse when they're looking at their budget numbers.
If you're trying to get it in writing, you need to demonstrate the reasoning on why you should get it: "If I do X, you give me Y." As long as X is measurable, you've left them a way out in case you fail and you have some confirmation that it's going to happen.
At one employer, I decided to pass on a raise and instead request a 10% bonus paid in two lump sums over the year if certain performance measures were met each time. They had the chance of having to pay me nothing extra and I had the chance of getting more cash than if I'd simply gotten a few % raise. Of course, I hit both goals with room to spare.:)
At another employer, instead of a raise, I asked for a higher tuition reimbursement limit. Since they didn't have any immediate out of pocket expenses, they jumped on it and the rest was up to me. The best part was that when I got laid off, they were still cutting me checks for the classes they'd already agreed to.
I was trying to point out that the people who wrote Sarbanes-Oxley don't even hold themselves to the same standards they beat people over the head with.
Yeah, no joke. He brought *Wozniak* to Startup School. I suspect that an introduction/reference from Paul (or his cohorts) is likely to open doors you didn't think were there...
I enjoyed Startup School, it was a great experience. I managed to connect with quite a few people doing different things up and down the coast. Despite my travel problems (noted on another post), I would happily go again.
The main problem I have with the GOP is this damn puritanism. This is the 21st century, dammit! If we force our views (actually their views, not mine. I have TB's of pr0n) on others, how are we better than the damn Islamist's?
Montgomery Couynty is a Democratic stronghold. Having a Republican Governor (Ehrlich) is the exception to a Dem-run state. And these guys are county anyway, that means Doug Duncan the County Exec who is believed to be the leading Dem candidate for the next Gov run.
Exactly. What the EU has just done is stated "We don't give a damn about licensing, copyrights, or any concept of intellectual property, it should all be public domain if we deem it!"
I did an interview with Mike Ho - the lead developer of QCodo - just a couple weeks ago. He laid out some pretty good differences between RoR & QCodo. Check it out: http://codesnipers.com/?q=node/187
The difference is that embryonic stem cell research creates a demand (market) for aborted embryos. Normally when there's a demand, someone is happy to come up with a supply.
I'm a core contributor to dotProject, so I'm completely biased, but I use it almost exclusively to handle all time-tracking, billing, etc for myself and my team of 5.
dotProject has a Todo list which filters everything down to your tasks, and has a "start" and "stop" button which tracks things by the minute. For some customers, I simply hand them the tasklog with the total hours (default report), but for others I give them a detailed invoice broken down by costcodes/billing rates (invoice module).
dotProject is web-based, open source, and plays well with lots of other things... my team and I have released an integration with MS Project, SugarCRM, and Mantis Bugtracker.
But, why it the world would anybody feel threatened by 'sexist' imagery?
Feeling "threatened" is the epitome of the feminist mindset and quickly makes *any* situation about personal safety and/or mental stability... and it's impossible to argue with either.
Well, the Chinese bloggers, Iranian dissidents, Christians hiding in Saudi Arabia, and just about anyone else who would suffer a crack-down have another day to live.
The problem is that it may encourage drug companies to reduce research OR not register for patents and protect their drugs some other way... making it more difficult to reverse-engineer and make generics later on.
Maybe there are... and they're going to fix them for v3 and share all the details of the v2 bugs.
And all those companies would be scrambling since they didn't write it in the first place and therefore probably have little understanding of the underlying code.
Actually, I'm less concerned about the UN being "for sale" - which we all know it is - than the next step being "well the Internet should be Democratic!"
And then viola... we have the Chinese Rep swinging the hammer of 1+ billion votes. And Bangledesh swinging another 1+ billion votes.
And we all know how much those Chinese Communists and Islamic societies love freedom of expression.

I just picked up the latest one (All Tomorrow's Parties?) and thought it was a great way to round out the series.
Now I'd just like to know what the Finn, the Count, and Angie are up to...

Obviously you've worked for the government too...
Well, if broadband internet becomes a "Right", I'm sure as hell glad that I don't sell computers or internet access...
Because failure to provide these things would become "denying someone their Rights", right?

No, if the electorate is anything like Washington, DC, he'll quickly be elected mayor* after the tape is released.
* ie. Marion Barry: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marion_Barry

The second one cites the AP and Washington Post and I can't attest to their standards.
Don't you know... climate change *never* happened prior to humans burning coal/oil for fuel.
And even if it has... the rate of change now is even faster than when the dinosaurs were wiped out one cheery afternoon.
Isn't that the sort of crap Enron did?
I worked in an Ops Center for a traffic control center... they had huge plasma screens to watch their soap operas. Stunning...
Because we want the government further defining what is "good" medical research?
Government run != lack of profits. It just means that the deals go on behind closed doors and are written into law.

This does NOT bode well for Open Source...

Actually, with $5M and a measely 3% annual rate of return would give you $150k/year. Everything you don't spend, let it roll over.
If you can't live on $150k/year with one kid, you have bigger problems.
