I remembe reading about this (on slashdot?) when longhorn was first announced. From what I understand programs need not be rewritten to take full advantage of the FS, though might gain a little bit if tuned for it.
The FS is essentially a giant database, and thus all of the good search algorithms and recovery tools written for databases can be applied to the Filesystem.
But then again, given my experiences with MSSQL, perhaps they should just keep NTFS 5 and remove the 'alternative streams' and make junction points take UNC names.
I have respect for my country. I have respect for those who gave their lives willingly to better their fellow man.
Those dead in the WTC did not. It is of course tragic, but imo they are innocent bystanders when people backlashed against (perhaps only percieved) American oppression. And perhaps I should be dead with them for not turning our government towards more things like the Empire State Building, and the 3rd Water Tunnel, and away from policing the world, and forcing our laws and idologies on foreign lands.
Great wonders, prosperity, and people make America great; not our Armies and Diplomats. I've respect for my country, but I remember all its fallen, not just the 'tragedy of the week'.
I belive (being born and raised in south jersey) that it's because Jersey (the original) is a little crapshoot island in the English Channel known for its cattle (hence Jersey Cow, the black spotted ones).
I find that mac addies are more use in this case than hostnames. They'll give you a decent idea of what machine type it is (sun machines will have very similar addresses, and so on).
Plus most switches have an ability to lookup via mac address. After all, why ask 1000 people when you can ask a few switches? You'll likely just unplug the offender anyways.
My current home machines are named off of fantasy cities/lands, with the universe/world as the subdomain.
Another thing used at my workplace is having a cname for (machine #).(rack #).(server closet #).foo.bar Useful when you've tons of the same looking machines that don't move much.
At an isp I worked at previously their names were (use)(O-S)(##).(location ID).domain.com Like wwwbsd01.berlin01.******.com
My best recommendation is to have a 'proper' name for things, and a cname to something that's memorable for the people that need to work on the machine.
This might seem silly, but why doesn't IBM sign up 8000 of their employees to the members group? $40k isn't much of a hit on someone 'dedicated to Linux's future' and they'd gain tons of loyalty for helping out the little guy when he needed it.
I live not a 5 minute drive from this golfland (and Neutral Ground, home of the regional CCG tournaments btw.)
It is a terribly unassuming place, just a kinda shoddy mini-golf place with terrible parking. It's nestled among large apartment complexes near a diverse (ethnically) area.
I heard about tournaments there a few months back, but have still never stopped by yet. But unless you knew any better, you'd just assume the place was a little shoddy mini-golf place, fighting off the Man to keep their little place alive. (there are tons of little shoddy shops in Silicon Valley that refused to sell, even when the land prices were exorbitant)
We had one of these. It was really neat. You just needed a crapola PC next to the board (to connect a serial cable to). The little pc can then host whiteboard images in real time to a bunch of machines on the network.
We don't use it anymore unfortunately, primarily because people don't like change, and don't like doing meetings/whiteboard presentations to an empty room.
And it is my opinion that people should be able to judge if they are going to mentally, sexually, or physically abuse their children and not have them. I also believe sexually active heterosexuals should know if they could support a child, and not have one if they cannot, or will not within 9 months. But I am naive...
It is for the parents to judge. This is my opinion.
And I'm not saying that children raised in broken homes will be bad people, because that's certainly not true, but in general I think most people will agree that it is better to have two adults raising a child they love and providing for it than just one.
Most families in America are strugling to provide for themselves and their child(ren) even with two incomes...
Abortions should not be done by women save themselves time and money. It should save the would be child the problems and emotional problems of being raised in a broken home, without proper parentage.
Adoption does not solve these problems. Or at least current adoption does not. In an ideal world where people adopted all the children put up for adoption, it might.
Now: I believe the difference lies in intent. Cloning/harvesting is making a baby with no intent on making a person. Abortions (should) occur only when a couple has no intention of making a baby, but *oops*. US law states that embyroes in very early stages can be killed, as it cannot live outside of the mother (without assistance) and is thus 'part of the mother' and she has the right to do whatever things to herself she wants as long as she does not endanger herself, or anyone else. (the debate is wether she can further endanger someone who cannot live outside her)
Personally I believe that abortion should be allowed, and is the worst, last option in birth control, but still far better than having a child that cannot be loved and supported as one should.
From what I understand this will be a large project to interconnect India's largest technical colleges (Institutes of Technology, which are very prestegious and good) and have smallish (by US standards) supercomputers at each one. They would then resell the pooled computing resources as needed.
The American equivalent would be having a supercomputer at Stanford, MIT, UMich, CMU, GATech, and maybe 4 other places, connected via internet2 and ssh tunnels.
If you just go by the Ten Commandments, and the parables of Job and Daniel for example, it's not just the "Christian" Bible, as these are important facets of Judaism.
Not to mention that the Bible is a holy book in Islam, which of course also preaches that you will get into heaven by dying at the hands of God's enemies.
I laughed every time I saw the Ten Commandments posted, or someone calling for prayer to help them after 9-11. After all, it was religion (and a meddling government) that brought the death upon us.
Of course they did not follow the commandments, but seriously, America's worship of the Buck doesn't exactly follow them either.
Wait. I'd assume with a name like gnucleus that they use the GPL, and thus will require derived works to include the GPL, along with source code. I'll also assume Morpheus does not, and is thus *not* "abiding the by the f'ing licensing!!!"
Granted his stuff is fiction, though quite a bit of it has been described as "unsettlingly accurate" by government types. In all of his books it's made note that nearly every Intelligence group has tvs turned to CNN and the like. I believe in one even CNN was called "the best civilian intelligence agency".
Because the general public expect such things from what is essentially a marketting droid. Granted he has a technical title, and can speak the speak, so he *must* know what he's talking about? Dah?
And the general public also expects someone just as zealously over the top to say similarly ludicrous things about Microsoft. They will offset one another, and in the end, people don't care. They just want to have fun, and get what they want when they want it.
They'd like the internet to be nice and easy, and they do not want to enter passwords to things. They do not understand, and do not care about security. They only care about not getting things stolen from them, or being cheated.
In the real world, who takes care of thievery and fraud? Yes, the police and the government. So why can't the police and the government *do their jobs* and keep the normal people safe and secure online too?
Well, sure you and I know why, because we generally know how things work. Normal people do not. And they don't care.
This of course depends on how it's used. Some of the nicest sites I've ever seen have been flash. And I wouldn't mind seeing more *commercial*,*non-porn* sites in flash.
Most home sites don't need it, most useful sites shouldn't use it (for accessability reasons, and because they'll need mostly text), and most porn sites would... well, let's just say I don't want 10 windows of jiggling cartoon flesh unless I ask for them.
And god knows routing spam through Korean email servers isn't terribly innovative...

Sure, customs might grab it, but seriously... Do you *really* think Taiwan or Japan would take kindly to having one of their most profitable industries (and exports) suddenly disappear?
The US *might* be able to saber rattle them into line, but would China, or even other countries looking for exports not pass up the oppertunity to ship SSSCA-less hard drives into the US where the demand is incredible?

Why did America keep bringing up communism in the 50's?
Fear mostly. And because dissention generally does not lead to productivity.
Likewise Passwort cannot be a catchall login if dissenters choose an alternative.
