YOU (as in one person) have been asked to figure out how to provide email access for ONE MILLION ACCOUNTS?
There is another comment on here saying that the entire IBM corporation only has around 300,000 email accounts. Do you know how many people they probably have running their email system?
And you need to replace Microsoft Exchange, probably the most capable corporate email system available? Do they require all the features that Exchange offers??
The fact you can zoom in, to the highest zoom level, anywhere in the US... and the roads line up with the satellite maps.. is amazing.
I just zoomed in fully to my street on Long Island, NY, and the road names and highways were overlayed perfectly with the actual streets as depicted on the satellite map.
How do they do this? I guess the satellite maps are labelled so precisely that they can overlay lat/lon routes on top of them?
If you swapped out your mom's brain with one grown in a sheep.. that wouldn't be your mom anymore. All her memories, her whole personality, would be gone.
As another post said, this place would likely be 24 hours, so it wouldn't need to be at 100% capacity for the hours you used.
Also, I'm sure that Alienware, EA Games, Corsair, etc would be happy to give away a lot of that stuff as long as they have huge banners hanging around and are included in the advertising plans. That cuts costs significantly.
My company accepts both. We have a simple PayPal account, and the full blown merchant account, with an SSL cert, payment gateweay, custom code, and all the rest that goes with it.
And you'd be surprised that a large number of people choose the PayPal option, for two reasons. TRUST and CONVIENENCE.
They trust PayPal because they are a huge company that they have used before. It's extremely convienent because they don't have to re-enter all their credit card and billing information into yet another website. They just hit the "Pay" button and they're done.
"And the bad news is that drinking three bottles of beer a day actually causes the blood to become pro-oxidant and increases the risk of such diseases 30 to 40 per cent."
1 seems to be the sweet spot, even 2 reduces the benefits.
After moving 3 weeks ago, I decided I was sick of paying $40+ a month for nothing but local service with Verizon, so I decided to sign up with Vonage.
I've had absolutely no problems with this service, voice quality is as good (if not better) than a landline, and the price is right ($14.95 for 500 minutes ANYWHERE in the US or Canada!).
They also offer so many additional features (toll free # for $5 a month??), how can the telcos compete?
If you search Doom III in google, Suprnova comes up on the right side as an affiliate link "download Doom III from this link." If nothing else, if suprnova were an open secret in the g**k community before, it's about to go fucking mainstream.
Careful.. that Google ad is not for Suprnova.ORG (the famous pirate site), it's for Suprnova.COM, a ripoff site trying to get people to pay for pirated material.
Granted, neither are good, but they are not the same site.
Although it doesn't let you input your own data, I have found ETF Timing's (www.etftiming.com) approach to trading logical and accurate. They provide market timing on ETFs (sorta like mutual funds, but traded like a stock), and have been quite accurate during the length of my subscription (about 6 months).
It's not free, and I'm not generally one to plug a specific site or product, but it is on-topic.
"Man!" Melvill said, shaking his fists together as he climbed from SpaceShipOne. "I went pretty high, though. When I got to the top, I released a bag of M&Ms in the cockpit. It was absolutely amazing. M&Ms were going all around. It was so cool! We have got to have video of that because I did it in front of one of the video cameras. I haven't ate them. They are in the cockpit."
Isn't that well within the margin of error that the human drivers would introduce? If the driver takes a turn slightly off of the most optimized route, wouldn't that negate the fraction of a second these algorithms are providing?

Can someone tell me what the difference is between a movie, and a film?
These tests are performed on a drop of blood. They don't enter the body!
"A nanowire array can test a mere pinprick of blood in just minutes, providing a nearly instantaneous scan for many different cancer markers."
Is it just me, or does something not look quite right about the "Will be saved in" and "File Type" in the following screenshot?

Mod parent down.
SVG works fine in 1.5 beta 1 and is enabled by default. I just tried it.
This can't be real.

Sorry if I'm I can't imagine this is real.
He agreed to it!
Noone held a gun to his head and made him sign that agreement. So now he shouldn't have to abide by it? I think not.
Microsoft won this care, and they should have.

Ok now that's just stupid.
I have programmed everything from ASM to C++ to PHP, and C# is by far the best language I've ever had the pleasure of working with.
It is easily as capable as C++ in most situations, is a lot nicer to work with, and boosts productivity immensely.
Stick to what you know.
From a programming standpoint, this is amazing.

Ummmm.. what about consciousness?
If you swapped out your mom's brain with one grown in a sheep.. that wouldn't be your mom anymore. All her memories, her whole personality, would be gone.
The brain is a little bit different than a liver!
What's interesting is that now that all the fast food chains are offering "cash or credit", when you pay by credit they don't make you sign anything.
I just hand them my card, they hand it back with my food.
So this makes the whole "signing" thing even more useless.
Here's the JavaScipt they are using to do the client-server communications:

We have plenty of these places in America... two right near my house are Jillians and Dave and Buster's.
In their "Graphics and Displays" they have very in depth reviews of LCDs and have whole sections of the articles discussing their gaming performance.

So far, it seems like it's "close but no cigar" for LCD panels being perfect for gaming, although its very close.

I just signed my business up. I'm not going back.
Best. Post. Ever.
In case you don't know, we sold Iraq WMDs. So w're 100% sure they had them at some point.
