I am sure there are a numer of ways to learn Scheme if you are interested. Here's one: follow the CS-61A course podcast of Brian Harvey's class at Berkeley.
Hi. I just downloaded the beta 2 bits and ran the upgrade install from a mounted ISO file - didnt even bother to burn a DVD.
Installed it on a Dell D600. Pentium M 1.4 GhZ, 1GB memory.
No driver problems. The install picked up the ATI Mobility Radeon 9000, the wired and wireless NICs, and the audio. No modem yet, but then I didnt bother installing it the last time I loaded XP either.
No performance problems. FWICT, Vista appears to utilize the machine about as well as XP did, which was pretty snappy.
Eclipse failed to start the first time I ran it, because the user access settings denied write access to the folder it was installed in. After adjusting those ACLs, Eclipse runs just fine.
Maybe I got lucky on the hardware compatibility lotto. Maybe the author of the fine article did not. Maybe the singular of data is not anecdote.
1. Dont use string manipulation to build XML documents. Please. Use XML APIs to build XML, mmk? XmlTextWriter is your friend. 2. String is what String is - an immutable string. It is reasonable to expect concatenation operations on any immutable object to be a copy-on-write operation. Its nice that Java and Python optimize for this case (yet Java cannot make the component aspects of a JavaBean a first class language citizen. Properties, people! Come on!), but the docs on System.String are quite clear about the immutability of String and the appropriateness of StringBuilder. You dont even have to read that far!
More specifically, learn Scheme using SICP. MIT has videos of the lectures, and Berkeley is podcasting both audio and video streams of current class session. There is a free Scheme environment for all manner of OS free and not here
It may not be good...I'm curious to actual evidence you might have to that effect. If it becomes OSS it will certainly have the opportunity to become less/more so. I still argue that commoditization of the 2PC engine is a big step back for Oracle/IBM/Bea/et al. Honestly, it's hard to value an uncited technical opinion from an AC.
Except that MHTML isn't Internet Explorer's format, it is an RFC (2110 IIRC) that the collective monetized^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H extinguished^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H implemented.
Has anyone given thought to the notion that a motivating factor for this purchase is to acquire and control the Arjuna distributed transaction control infrastructure that JBoss just acquired [sorry for the PDF] and plans to Open-Source this quarter?
Arguably, it is that one item that puts them at the nexus of opportunity. Advertising pays the bills, and search technology puts in their reach a corpus the likes of which has never been amassed. If the end is to educate skynet, google is the entity with the means closest at hand.
Just because A is part of B doesn't imply B = A. Yes. But if A has a is-a relationship with B, then A is a B (Duh, yes, thats a tautology.) More of a semantic modeling exercise than a set operation.
1. Programming languages, and programs written in those languages, are data. Further, OP said language, not programming language.
2. Ad hominem attacks suck, and so do you.
Absolutely. 50-60GB is roughly the size of our sales OLTP. We only keep a 7 day window of sales there. The rest gets melted down for the data warehouse. Not using indices (in a general sense) is certainly not an option, but not encrypting your credit card number isnt one either.
No. There mustn't. The field just insn't indexed in a meaningful way. Security is just another tradeoff.
Which makes sense in terms of the popular example of a credit card number. For a credit card tender, you would probably store your internal transaction number, a point of service location identifier, date/time, transaction type (sale, refund, etc) credit card processor transaction reference number, and the credit card number. Why in this scenario does credit card number need to be indexed? You'll normally be searching by transaction refnum and sales date. By the way, when I think of encrypted database columns, I mean encrypted, on disk, permanent storage.

I for one welcome our civilized /.-posting Overlords.
Please explain how the diagram you cite shows Explorer to run in the Executive.

It's so much easier to compete against someone who has already decided his limits.
ohhhhh....look - it goes to 11.

You obviously never tried to install it from 23 floppies.
Step 1. buy photoshop, draw a nude form
Step 2. sue Adobe to oblivion!
Step 3. Profit!
Methinks Dave Cutler might disagree.
Solaris is written in C!
OMG!
No Way!

Major portions of the Windows GUI run at Ring 0
Details, please. Which portions? What APIs? To which version of Windows are you referring?
Absolutely.

Actually, when I was assigned to Standard Systems Group, we were given *explicit* permission to install that copy of Word at home.
I enjoyed you more when your stories were more concise. Is your current trend of longer stories a permanent fixture in your writing?
Actually, NTFS does have an execute permission.
Traverse folder / Execute file
