Did you look at the pics. The cold air is being concentrated on the CPU. There was no indication to how cold the surrounding area got, but I wouldn't think much. The tube seems to be insulated, after all he only wants to cool whatever the end of the tube is touching, not his whole house...its Finland after all.
The Wright Brothers actual performed the test is Kill Devil Hills, NC. And set the telegraph from Kitty Hawk. Usually a few people catch on to this fact each/. post, I guess I am the first today.
BTW they have a nice little museum on the spot with workshop recreations and markers where the first few flights landed.
And this affects what system the music gets played on in what way? Most american homes are made from Canadian lumber, but that doesn't make me more likely to want to become a Canadian. I suppose it's nice self-back-scratching.
I believe the quote had more to do with a trust issue of artists, record execs and Apple that what the music plays on.
And on behalf of all Canadians, we don't want you, we just want your money in trade for giving you lots of good wood, not great wood, that gets exported to Asia, but good wood none the less.
They could make a best-of-both-worlds senario, where for the first X cd's sold the artist makes small amount a on each cd. The record company can then recoup some or all of the money spent on the initial small release of a new artist. If the artist is popular then the next round of cd's that are produced the artist gets b cents on the dollar where b > a because the record company and the artist are more confident in the ability to recoup the costs of printing the cds. Or some such scenario.
Of course theives is the correct term, someone stealing something legally owned by someone else. Until the law changes you are still a theif for downloading/redistributing music that is owned by someone else.
Leaving out the industry-experience people is a double-edge sword. You don't have to deal with either re-educating them in your business practices, or have them infect others with some non-desired methodologies. However you also miss out on all their lessons learned, some of which may be needed by your company.
It is a volunteer program, which is at least two years down the road. But I guess how having other people have the option for this could make you feel non-human. Seeing some of the people on fox shows makes me feel non-human too.
I am not sure that they want to make themselves look better in society, just look normal. Give gamers a more balanced look in the media than how they are portrayed now. Will there be an impact ? Probably not. Will some sick children benefit ? Of course. And that is really the point right ?
So who pays your salary ? I am convinced they are actually the ones who wanted you to post this, after all you MUST be blatantly biased towards them. Perhaps the local chapter of Cynical People.

It sounds like you hate what people do with XML rather than XML itself. Its like saying 'I hate paper bags, because once some kids put some feces in a paper bag, put it on my doorstop and lit it on fire.' We use XML for the configuration files for several of our newer products. We have DTD's for them, and parsing on load up is a breeze. However the files are all less than a hundred lines.

I have to agreee. It's a generalized solution so that your data can be portable. Those bastards in the future always come up with new technology that makes all our hardwork now be fairly useless. You create a nice optimized data storage format, and access it for some 10 years. Then somebody wants to port your data to application Y on platform Z. If your data is important enough to take the time to optimize it it may be at least worthwile to ensuring some level of portability in the future. Lose performance now, save money later ?
Are you complaining that a 'game' 'over-simplified' something as complex as microwave power receiving. Do we need to go over the definition of what is a game, and what is a simulation. Me I love the fact that I don't need 4 fucking phd's and 30 years of real world experience to design a city in an hour and watch it burn for the next three. What is it like to not be able to use a television remote ? A microwave without fancy buttons on the front to choose time and power level easily, drive a car with a crank in the front and horses at home in case the crank brakes. Me I LOVE my over-simplified world. Hard things are easy when you need them to be easy and the knowledge is there when you want them to be hard.....btw how is web browsing with your telegraph machine ?
The problem is the task is an infrequent one for an employee. Often when they leave their job and transition their projects its often easy to forget something you do once a year over the last x years you have worked.
microsoft doesn't have a
good understanding of security in general.
Just because their code is bad doesn't mean they don't understand security, it may just mean it is not profitable to write perfectly secure code.....and they get money from upgrades:)
You don't want flat land. You want a large hill as the Wright Brother's used in Kill Devil Hill's to make their historic flight. They had a rail system set up, the plane came down the hill, along the track and up into the air. Another benefit of Kill Devil was it is essentially a sand dune, so soft on the landings when things don't go as planned.
This is an inaccurate argument. If you put a lot of time, effort and money (and perhaps talent) into creating the car, then should you profit from your work. Sure. Should manufactures get to stop paying for your design after you are dead, maybe. If you fix a song, or a script, do you get royalties. Nope, not even a credit often.
Excepting of course those who do decide to push beyond the need of immediate necessity, partly perhaps to get funds for their own immediate needs, the likes of which are Cory Doctorow, who in my humble opinion, takes a good look at where we are and what we can become in some of his fiction...science or otherwise.. own0rz3d or such as featured on salon is worth reading as are his more recent works such as "Down and out in the Magic Kingdom". Those who are more sober than me can link if thou art lazy. The mainstream media is often behind the up and coming trends, of which Cory and others are the forefront.
So we can rail against MS for having an insecure operating system and flaunt Linux's proliferation in the market, and then dismiss that its because of Linux's dominance that more Linux systems are getting hacked. We should instead try to foster a more security mindeded friendly community to educate the Linux sysadmins out there. This is a problem, that should not be lightly dismissed. If there was a larger percentage of windows boxes out there would anyone say 'But think of how many more windows servers are out there than linux servers.......
Read the Wired article and you will begin to see the problems. One set of 'cultured diamonds' are detectable with some (for now) expensive equipment, or perhaps a well-trained eye. However there is another group that are making 'cultured diamonds' that are chemically and physically undetectable at this stage from mined diamonds. But you would know this, if you had read the article.

yes it would be hard ...if only the device had some sort of automated transportation scheme built in. :)
