Microsoft wants to make sure it's not late to the party, as it has been so many times in the past.
Aren't they already late to the party? Apple, Samsung, Google, and others have been working on smart watches for *years* already. If MS hasn't been quietly working on this for a while already, it seems to me like they're already late.
Python/Django is what we chose to replace our aging Perl code. Our biggest problem with Perl is that it's really hard to find qualified programmers who want to work in Perl and are local in the Bay Area.
sec 2008 a) AUTHORITY- The President is authorized to use all means necessary and appropriate to bring about the release of any person described in subsection (b) who is being detained or imprisoned by, on behalf of, or at the request of the International Criminal Court.

I have an IIRC SK83G and it sounds like a hairdryer (not quite, but it's loud). Too loud for a HT/MC PC. Though just after I got mine, they started using larger fans, which should be quieter... but I'm not sure how quiet.
Of course, how loud is too loud is a matter of opinion...

If anyone's interested (sorry I don't have any links), because pollution was so bad in LA they decided to allow California to set stricter rules than the EPA for vehicle emmitions. In fact, it's the only state that can do that, but then any other state can choose to follow California's stricter standards instead of the federal ones.
I can tell you from personal observation that there are a lot of new TDI (turbo diesel) VW's in the SF bay area... There's bound to be other brands too. From what I've heard they've been quite popular for the past few years in large part because of the price of gas.
I had to reload the page a couple of times. I thought something had gone wrong the first time because it was showing the same story on the top that it was when I looked at/. this morning...
What does it say about/. when the editors don't think their site is worth reading?
In high school I took a creative writing class and one story I wrote had reference to a character waving his tentacles around, but my spell checker had changed my attempt at "tentacles" to "testicles". Luckily, I caught the error before handing the story in while reading it in a earlier class.
Technically, underscore characters are not allowed in host names according to RFC 952:
A "name" (Net, Host, Gateway, or Domain name) is a text string up to 24 characters drawn from the alphabet (A-Z), digits (0-9), minus sign (-), and period (.).
Still it seems like a stupid idea to strip them out.
You're close, but not quite right. There's always a licensing agreement with Qt, no matter the platform. If you're using it on Linux or MacOS you have 2 choices: the GPL version (can only be linked with GPL and compatible software because of the GPL) or the commercial version which you can link with your closed source code.
On Windows, there's only the commercial version available (which also means you can't build GPL software on Windows with Qt unless the GPL software has a specific license exepmtion for Qt)

I'm pretty sure ** goes back to at least Fortran (though you may very well have seen it somewhere else). Javascript already uses ^ for bitwise XOR
I live in Oakland just a few miles away, and I didn't even notice it.
When I was in school, attendance was tracked on paper, and we purchased food from the cafeteria with cash.

Wasn't Windows 2000 technically version 5.0? IIRC that's the version number it reported. Also IIRC, XP was 5.1, Vista was 6.0.
If you open the App Store on an iOS device, the first thing you see is a list of new apps.

That comment was an offhanded joke, reporting it like this is ridiculous. I guess unless the point was to have a flame war...
It's too hot in the summer for you.
One could say the same thing about Sacramento
You actually only need one mark (e.g. the start) and then move the cursor to the end and do:
in this context '.' means "where the cursor is"

It can't be as bad as VB.
Safari won't autoinstall widgets until you create a ~/Library/Widgets (at least if you upgraded)

It's also supported on MacOS. iDisk uses WebDAV.
"I don't have a problem with Debian's commitment to libre software & their choice not to ship pine."
Pine is included in Debian, in the non free section. I believe the installer downloads the source from UW, patchs it, and builds it.
The grandparent post was talking about pine not being included in *Red Hat* not Debian.
