This is so ridiculous as to be beyond laughable. Developers *can* be critical of their own code, but no serious software company depends on developer testing as the end-all (or even the most significant art) of their Q&A process. There is just no objectivity.
Near-lightspeed travel should be possible. It takes whopping amounts of energy, but the amount of energy needed to drive a nuclear aircraft carrier would have been nearly inconceivable 100 years ago.
We are a pretty small shop, so for us Mantis seems to work pretty well. We have set up hooks bewteen it and our SVN version-control. There is a wiki feature that has some quirks, although I don't have the latest Mantis version which is supposed to improve the wiki integration.
With solar, maintaining a consistent flow is always an issue - darkness and weather make solar power inconsistent. Converting solar to hydrocarbon fuel may be worthwhile since some percentage of the solar energy gets "stored" in the fuel, which can be burned as needed.
The GUI for submitting batch jobs is similar in concept to the print gui. It lists the cluster head nodes you are connected to and lets you pick one and set parameters such as number of nodes for your job, etc. There is also a monitor for jobs ongoing, similar in concept to the printer monitor.
I'm flattered by your mistake. I wish I were that talented and industrious. Instead I'll have to content myself with being able to be fabulously more productive creating Windows-based software than I could ever hope to be if I were doomed to develop only on Linux (though I do some of that as well.)
Hard work, good tech, ethics : that is definitely Microsoft.
Hard work: There is no such thing as "free" software. Microsoft is entitled to the profits from the massive amounts of work they have put into their OS and other software.
Good tech: If you are an elitist geek or can afford to pay one or two to be at your beck and call, sure you can use Linux. For most of the world, this is not an option. Linux on the OLPC will be a disaster. Kudos to Nigeria for being smart enough to realize that.
Ethics: To whom is the Linux community accountable? No one. But if MSoft so much as farts in the wrong place, the hordes will be all over them.
The way some posters here assume stupidity and cupidity to be at the heart of this borders on racism.
I think that, given the design we have, the easiest way to address this problem would be to make it less dangerous to do the repairs. Why is it so inherently risky to do an EVA? What changes to equipment and/or procedures would make EVA safer?
The order in question is made under the IEEPA, which regulated the power of the President to declare emergencies in 1977. Prior to the IEEPA, the Executive branch had, in practice, much broader and more vague powers to seize propery and in general make life miserable for entities who were deemed to be causing trouble. In theory, any specific action taken under this order would still be subject to scrutiny by courts and might possibly be overturned on 5th Amendment grounds. But the IEEPA makes it necessary to at least specify a particular criterion for taking this kind of action.
It is an time-honored tradition on/. to trash anything with even a whiff of Wintel in its breeding. If only the one of the original articles had a review of this hardware running Vista.
They said that it can't be called kryptonite because it doesn't contain krypton. Again missing the point - the name didn't refer to its composition, but rather to its origin on the planet Krypton - much as the current uninspiring name refers to the mundane origin of the sample under discussion.
Confuse the public? Discredit science? Define the debate via perjorative choices of terms. Exxon might be raising legitimate concerns, or funding valid research. The global warming phenomenom is literally as complex as the atmosphere, but most people seem content to oversimplify and sensationalize it.

For instance, see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_power_satellites#Safety
The beam would do no damage in 250 ms, or even in 2500 ms.
Nice illustration of what the parent was talking about.

Routers don't user anything, they route.
Not likely, you blithering idiot troll.

Um... the FAQ is for the 2003 version.

"none of the major car companies went all out for either electric or hybrid cars..."
You mean, except for Toyota?
Outlook by default (since version 2003) does not load images nor does it execute javascript in html email.
"Unfortunately" it requires Silverlight?
A disciple of Ned Ludd, I see.

Without Russian help, where would the ISS be? What is the reason to ignore the vast experience they have in getting things done in space?
And now that they are determined to have their own moon base, the nationalist madness gets exported to the Moon as well.
Someone should take NASA's toys away until they learn to play well with others.
So now even NASA is putting weapons in space. When will the madness end?
