If the bank allows someone claiming to be you to empty your bank account, isn't that the bank's problem? Can't you go to the bank with a lawyer and say, "That's not my signature. *I* did not withdraw these funds. *I* cannot be held responsible."
Not a Polish reader, but I was struck by the translation when I read _Cyberiad_. How do you translate a novel so full of elaborate puns, rhymes, and neologisms? Remarkable that it works at all. Even more remarkable that the English _Cyberiad_ is such a wonderful set of stories.
Most of the comments here miss the point of Mr. of URL's argument.
If I buy a pirated copy of Britney Spears latest album for $5 in Malaysia, I have committed no crime. It's not illegal for me to bring it back to the US, and it's not illegal for me to play it in my CD player. The person who made the CD and sold it to me is the only one who broke the law.
On the other hand, if I buy Adobe's Greatest Hits Vol. II for $5 in Malaysia, I would be committing a crime by bringing it into the US, by installing it on my computer, and by using it.
See the difference? The software makers have somehow acquired legal protection that doesn't exist for other kinds of intellectual property.
This is a device which emulates a standard SCSI hard drive. Plug it into your host adapter, and any data written to it is automatically mirrored to a remote location over the Internet.
Does private/protected _really_ help for large programs with lots of team members? I know that conventional wisdom says it does, but I've seen no real evidence, and my experience, working on some medium-sized Perl projects, suggests that the absence of access control is no problem at all.
As for the overhead of message sends, it turns out that Smalltalk VMs are pretty smart and are able to eliminate most of that overhead. A good Smalltalk system generally matches or exceeds the speed of Java VMs.
Note that many independent labels, and just about all of the major indie labels, are distributed by major labels.
For instance, Matador Records, the label that publishes Pavement, Liz Phair, etc., etc., has a distribution deal with Warner Bros.

The amount of new music you're introduced to on Launch is a configurable option.
Also, the rating system will allow your taste to migrate over time. Suppose you start rating the Nine Inch Nails songs lower because you're sick of 'em. That'll cause Launch to play different songs for you, some of which you may really like.
I've discovered all kinds of great music listening to Launch.
Launch works really well. Try it when it comes back.

Perl 6 is to Perl as C++ is to C.
I bet Perl 6 is going to take a _loong_ time to catch on, if at all. Larry's taking one of the most complicated language syntaxes / semantics ever devised and piling on even _more_.
GRUB is great. I love GRUB. However, GRUB has this problem _even more_ than LILO. LILO is FS agnostic. It tries to load the kernel from a specified _disk block_.
GRUB, on the other hand, actually reads the file system, like the BSD bootloaders, and at this point, it doesn't know how to read XFS.
What kind of data structures do you want? Python has integrated support for dynamic arrays and dictionaries. You can get matrices and some other data structures as part of the mathematics extensions.
Incorrect. We have mouse _port_ drivers. Notice that there are no "Serial mouse" drivers in the kernel. The mouse support in the kernel is just for facilitating I/O over the PS/2 port, or whatever other funky bus mouse technology your box has.
Note that there's a huge difference between "large enough to be obvious to me" and something that is happening across the board, on all searches. It's like flipping a coin and noticing that in 10 flips, 8 times it landed on heads, and concluding from that that the coin is rigged. Is it not also completely possible that the coin is not rigged?
I haven't seen a single match on google for eopinions. I don't even know what eopinions is. This suggests to me that this is a localized phenom. where eopinions scores well on the searches you run.

You can buy such assurances from IBM and Red Hat, among others. Why do you buy your "Unix System V" from?

Check out 'scsiadd' for resetting and probing the bus. I'm not sure about the other two.
Perl's use of == vs eq is just poor design and has nothing to do with dynamic or static typing.

On every single story, somebody posts a parody of that poem. This is the new Beawolf cluster.

(1) Yeah, but how do you find good Lisp programmers? Java programmers are a dime a dozen.
(2) There's no support for Lisp. None of the app servers support Lisp. Databases don't support Lisp. Etc.

It's less than a penny per share. It's a negligable amount by Wall Street standards.
Red Hat lost $600,000 in the 4th quarter of fiscal 2001.
They lost over $5 million in the 4th quarter of 2000.
That's what the submitter is trying to say. I agree that the wording is a littlle bit confusing.
In the circumstance you describe, the fact that it was a wireless LAN makes no difference. You can packet sniff ethernet just as well.
And in either case, the solution is to use a VPN.
You think articles like these are the _only_ pressure companies have to release unfinished software? Ha!

Mozilla effectively froze at M17. As it says in the map, the only changes being applied to the trunk are stability, performance, footprint, etc.
