You can stream files as well in.NET. I wanted to point out that.NET typically has a level of API that makes simple scenarios easy and more complex scenarios possible (as easy as possible:-)) as in this case.
You should also checkout the http://www.codeplex.com/dynamicsilverlight CodePlex project. It is open source Silverlight samples written on top of the DLR. I'm sitting in the DLR talk at MIX right now.:-) Miguel de Icaza is sitting two rows in front of me. Not to brag, but I am a bit excited:-).
UAC asks for a password unless you are an administrator level account. By default you will run as a non-admin and UAC will prompt for an admin username/password.
Yeah, I think that is a fair point. Each level in the hierarchy is separated by an arrow as a visual separator so you can just guide your eyes to two levels up. After I learned how to use it, I don't feel like it takes any more time than clicking the up arrow twice. And it does seem faster for very deeply nested folders.
The no up button caught me by surprise as well. There is something that gives you the same functionality (and actually a bit more). If you look at the address bar that usually shows the path of the files, you can click on a folder name and explorer will take you that folder. The nice thing about it is that if you want to jump to a folder up more than one, you can do that.
Right, however my sensory experience is not much different than yours (assuming we both have sight, are not achromotopsic, have all our limbs, etc). So if this is the case, then why would your internal thought processes be much different than mine? Also, I think it is important to differentiate between ways of thinking and how our internal conceptual structures are modeled. You may "think" of something in a different order than me, or use a concept that I don't have, but if we share a concept I would be willing to bet that its structure in you and me is very close to the same thing.
Perhaps we agree except on the amount of uniqueness that individual representations have...
If you lose this assumption, then what are you left with? How is communication possible at all?
There is a bit of evidence suggesting that this assumption is correct. The Whorf hypothesis that how you thought was dependent on your language has been pretty much disproven.
Also, just thinking about it, we are members of the same species, a product of over some billion years of evolution. Our bodies and brain structures are (usually) remarkably close to each other. Why would the core content of our thoughts (not individual beliefs and desires or experiences but the way our thoughts are structured and some basic thoughts) not be very close to the same thing?
I'm sorry but 5'10" and 125 pounds??? That is skinnier than a professional marathon runner (Well, maybe not quite, but is still really skinny). I am 5'7", 160lbs and I am skinny with some muscle and a little fat. I can't see how weighing that little is healthy...
So I accidently left my cell phone on during one flight, so just out of curosity I checked the service level and there was no service. Don't know if this has any point, I just thought it was interesting...
One week after the outbreak was supposed to be over, I tried setting up a Windows 2000 Server. IIS was enabled by default, and thinking the worse was over, didn't turn it off. I was infected before I could download antivirus software or the patch. This was on a dual T3. Explain to me how this is my fault.
I have have major objection to this. If they are trying to model natural systems, why do they have 6 prey and 15 predators??? In the real world a large prey population is needed to feed a smaller predator population. And while sometimes predator populations may get too big to support themselves, I highly doubt they will ever grow to over twice the prey population. Are they trying to model a system after a famine or disease wiped out the prey?
My prediction: The massive amount of predators quickly "kill" the prey and then if they can adapt quick enough, kill each other until one is left that eventually dies because it can't eat...
1. Who spends more money? Businesses or consumers? Businesses. Why the hell would MS want to transform a device for doing work into an entertainment machine? It just doesn't make sense. Think of it this way: Businesses buy pens, not crayons. I bet you see a lot more pens sold.
2. The CLR is just a collection of library code that developers can use or choose not to use. Think STL for many different languages. Already the CLR has support for many languages.
3. An evil empire built by Microsoft does not really benefit them in the long run. Microsoft is in the business of making money, not taking over the world.
I would expect to see a story with FUD like this in the Weekly World News next to Bat Boy's latest adventure, not in a respectable technical publication.
Dude, its cool. I was trying to ask about web based email in general, and since I use Hotmail and it is owned my M$, I immediately thought WA. I liked your first post by the way...
How does this affect email being sent to non-Washington residents who access their email from servers in Washington (IE Hotmail perhaps?) I for one would like it very much if this law applied to email recieved at Hotmail
While I am out of High School, my girlfriend is not. Recently, there has been a student that is threatening to hurt people. There is both written and verbal documentation of this.
What can someone do in this situation? The problem has been brought to the attention of the principal, however, the student is still in class. People still feel unsafe.
This is where I see a need for something like this. I don't think that it should be an automatic death sentance for the person reportedd, but I think it serves a valuable purpose for those people who feel unsafe.
I saw a X-Box presentation at my college. This point was stressed: The X-Box is a gaming console. Nothing more.
Buying one voter, instead of all...

Although I like the idea of showing how America's election system truly works, I do see a difference. With the big corporations and even with George Washington, they were trying to buy everyone's vote. It wasn't a forgone conclusion. Just because a corporation gives me something doesn't mean that I am going to vote for their canidate. However, if I participate in voteauction it does. Also what happens if I don't vote for the candidate I am supposed to? Do I just receive no money, or is my ballot tossed?
Since I am in a small school district, I was able to form an internship with our district technology coordinator. Our business manager is also a big fan of technology. I was given a small box to play with and me and another friend set up an ISP using the school's T1. It may be best to sidestep the teacher and go for their boss.
When we began hiring for a network technician, Linux experience was included on the app. Six months ago the coordinator told the business manager that Linux in schools was not posible because people did not know enough about it. After me fooling around a little he was able to see that the knowledge base was already in the school.
Currently we are looking at moving our webserver and mail server over to Linux. Paying a couple thousand for a cheap hardware is much better than paying the couple thousand for hardware and then ten thousand more for Novell's mail solution.
I have met with technology coordinators from larger districts who also take interns. I really think this is your best bet for getting Linux in use. Our coordinator even took a few hours of his last day to teach me about IP addressing. Good luck
Well, then can't the geeky kids fix the problem? It's not that difficult. This was my point: The users that install AOL and don't know what they are saying yes too are more than likely going to use AOL for their email and web browsing. Every internet browser does exactly the same thing. Every email client does exactly the same thing. All the telnet applications I have tried have done the same thing. Just because AOL is generally lame doesn't give us reason to bash them for something everyone else does.

You may be right, but try another example for .NET. Here are some .NET APIs you can use to read a file:
byte[] File.ReadAllBytes(string path)
string[] File.ReadAllLines(string path)
string FileReadAllText(string path)
and write to one:
File.WriteAllBytes(string path, byte[] bytes)
File.WriteAllLines(string path, string[] contents)
File.WriteAllText(string path, string contents)
Oh, and you can still compose types for more complex scenarios.
Full disclosure - I work for MS on Visual Studio

1. They already have the consumer market.
2. How many people ran NT on a different architecture? Sun just stopped supporting Solaris on x86 and I bet a lot more people used that.
3. I'll give you that.

I would expect to see a story with FUD like this in the Weekly World News next to Bat Boy's latest adventure, not in a respectable technical publication.
So, maybe I am giving too much credit to the checks and balances system, but won't these new laws still have to be upheld by a court?
