The POSIX 1003.1-2001 standard defines an application programming interface (API) for writing multithreaded applications. This interface is known more commonly as pthreads. A good number of modern operating systems include a threading library of some kind: Solaris (UI) threads, Win32 threads, DCE threads, DECthreads, or any of the draft revisions of the pthreads standard. The trend is that most of these systems are slowly adopting the pthreads standard API, with application developers following suit to reduce porting woes.
Win32 does not, and is unlikely to ever, support pthreads natively. This project seeks to provide a freely available and high-quality solution to this problem.
Amongst others on the net, we have been working on an implementation of pthreads for Win32. This implementation is free software, distributed under the GNU Lesser General Public License (LGPL). It currently implements a great deal of the POSIX standard.
Various individuals have been working on independent implementations of this well-documented and standardised threading API, but most of them never see the light of day. The tendency is for people to only implement what they personally need, and that usually does not help others. This project attempts to consolidate these implementations into one implementation of pthreads for Win32.
Believe it or not, an iPod isn't the answer to every damn thing that involves music.
It's like the python people, that have to post about it in every story that is REMOTELY related to it.
Besides, it's illegal, not meant for 18-24 hour/day operation and would make it difficult, if not impossible, to include realtime status updates between/during songs.
I miss the old/. The one where people knew what they where talking about, and didn't just repeat crap they heard on irc and/or some kool overclocking site.
All food? Looks at gallon of milk, 12 oz dr pepper, 1 lb bag of chips, 4 lb bag of sugar and medicine for my son that says to give 1 3/4 teaspoons per 12 hours.
I can go down to the mall, gas station or grocery store and buy a prepaid visa/mastercard. Your idea wouldn't stop people determined to fsck things up.
Because NASA has a lot of overhead (the goverment uses NASA to funnel support to our aerospace industry, like food stamps is used to subsidize our farmers and grocery industry. It doesn't upset the WTO).
IOW, NASA's base cost would be 50%-500% more than a small companies. That is where the cost savings comes from. And don't forget, NASA doesn't really build anything, the subcontract most of that work out to large aerospace corps.

If you haven't noticed, not very many people in the South admit to Cali being part of the USA. ;->
Well, if they are buying the drinks they can talk about what every the hell they want.. ;->
Who talks about ergonomics to strangers in a bar?
IOW, turn a simple 10 second dialing process into an, expensive, time consuming process that would take 60-120 seconds.
That is just stupid.

No, google removes nodes on a free time basis. IOW, when they have time.
Nice to see that you didn't respond, you made me a foe instead.
Coward.
I just watched the intro movie, and if that is a good as it gets, well I want my 3 minutes back.
Damn, that's just bad.
I miss the old /. The one where people knew what they where talking about, and didn't just repeat crap they heard on irc and/or some kool overclocking site.
sigh.
You said 60 seconds. That isn't enought time to do what you wish, that is why I said you should wait, so you CAN do what you wish.
And what 'standard APIs' doesn't windows provide?
I didn't say anyone was getting ripped off, I just said the telcos had very high profit margins on that class of service.
Is sprint the provider of your T1's physical connection or are they just providing the internet connection?
Yes, a T1 is a lot. You know why? Because people pay it and the bells are in love with the 85% profit margin a T1 gives them.
No, he was testing maned space flight and all the systems and processes that are needed to do that. He had a honorable reason for doing what he did.
You just want to look at the earth, big difference.
Win32 version of evolution.
Where in the windows version? It would help in the first stages of getting people off windows.
Dying for 60 seconds worth of a view is stupid. It isn't being a pioneer, its kill yourself for a view.
It's 0300 in the morning and I haven't been asleep for a long time. Give me a fscking break.
Or you could wait a few years till others work out the bugs, then enjoy years alive in space. Nothing that only lasts 60 seconds is worth dying for.
Yes, we know that we really messed up the programming and steps have been taken to help insure that it will not happen again.

Other space agencies just have to make guesses as to what went wrong.

You where saying?
Less than 0.01% of people who ride in autos are killed each year, I think it could be as low as 0.0001%.
