A company will *not* grow in profitability unless the consumers feel their products are worthwhile, and keep buying them!
Do you think consumer feelings about a product's worth are based on a deep understanding of the product's side effects? Even in a country where all major media outlets are owned by a handful of transnational corporations that have a track record of squashing news stories harmful to their economic interests?
The Cube didn't have a fan, but it had an external power supply, so they were kinda cheating.
The Cube also has a big open vent on its top (say 6" by 3"), and a comparably sized opening along the bottom. So, even though there is no fan, air moves through the thing fairly well. I haven't seen any closeups of the new imac, but from what I have seen, it's unlikely that there's nearly as much airflow.
Daikatana and Deus Ex were finally released in 2000. Predictably, Daikatana was slammed while Deus Ex received many awards. Both made money for Eidos
Misleading at best! Daikatana 'made money' in the sense that some copies were, in fact, sold, but you also need to consider how much was SPENT in the making...
I envisioned the apocalyptic San Francisco as a psychedelic wasteland. But I learned how valuable my ideas were when I excitedly approached a designer about making a psychedelic level in Haight/Ashbury. "Yeah, man, sure, that's gay," was his arctic response.
So, is the designer just the typical moronic FPS-playing homophobe, or is he positively affirming San Francisco demographics? The mind reels...
Great for media metrix. The stats reports I see, for a number of sites with 1 million+ hits / month, indicate that Google is more popular than all other search engines put together. These sites don't appeal to a particuarly tech-savvy audience either.
There is NO decent evidence that OOP factors better, or does *anything* else better than procedural/realational programming (or other non-OO paradigms).
On the contrary, there is plenty of anecdotal evidence that relentlessly hyping OO has the effect of getting Joe Average Programmer to start thinking a little about modularity and abstraction.
But the real issue here is deducing something about a group of units, based on one unit's MBTF. Some discussion towards the bottom of this doc: http://www.hardwaregroup.com/faq/gen_mtbf.htm
Umm, you are totally wrong under almost all assumptions.
* The NVidia drivers have been totally unwavering stable for me, and I have been using them for over 8 months. This I CANNOT say for previous XFree drivers I have used.
Great as it is that you've had luck with the Nvidia drivers, you'd have to be living under a rock not to know that plenty of others have not. I've wasted weeks of my life trying to get them to work with a couple systems (although they did work the first time on system #3).
The options SYSVSHM and SYSVSEM need to be enabled when the kernel is compiled. (They are by default.) The maximum size of shared memory is determined by the option SHMMAXPGS (in pages). The following shows an example of how to set the various parameters:

Ahem.

That's your opinion. My opinion is that telling people they shouldn't make decisions based on their personal beliefs is moronic.

Isn't the whole point of arp spoofing, that it allows sniffing despite switches?
Competing with Sun's business? I didn't know that FreeBSD was producing big-$$$ server hardware.
Not if you have a floppy drive; you can boot off one (1) 1.44 meg floppy, and install the rest of the system over the network.
Or, if you have a CD burner, just download the 2.88 meg cdrom image, burn to CD, and install the rest off the network.
I still buy the CDs, because they're great things to have, but they're hardly necessary for an install.
A little bit of knowledge can be a dangerous thing.

wouldn't suggest using it for a large project.
And I know some serious NT system administrators who ftp from arbitrary terminals to their production servers, using their Administrator accounts.
Probably won't end world hunger either. So? Let's appreciate what JC does, not complain that he doesn't solve all our problems for us.

But let's say you have 200 systems, with a mean time between failures of 56,000 hours each.
That's one failure every 12 days, more or less.
Looks like your grasp of statistics is about as good as your grasp of systems administration.
Disadvantage of using amazon: they charge $0.15 per donation, plus 15%. If you donate $20, then, the perl peeps only get $16.85.
Maybe the IT dept. spends its time with the linux boxes because all the real work is being done via the Linux boxes?

Actually, if you wanted a certain business practice stopped, asking the gov't to make it illegal isn't the worst thing you could do.
Is that really worse than forcing your kid's world view to be a proper subset of the blandest crap that 10,000 bureaucrats could agree on?
Did you try the postgresql docs?
Linux blows OpenBSD's performance away.
When you're done reading the postgresql docs, try the openbsd faq
Under OpenBSD, at least, mozilla doesn't work, and never really has. Somebody's working on it. Konqueror apparently works just fine.
You're right, it does read better after that.

Don't do it, radon is nothing but trouble.
