The best part of the interview was Raskin answering questions that weren't asked. Where did the Hypercard thing come from? Why did he talk about web surfing when asked about gadgets?
New York has 'taught to the test' a lot longer than Bush has been president. I moved to NY state when I was high school age, and spent 3 years learning to take 'Regent's exams.'
'03 Vibe GT, I get from 26 - 28 mpg most of the time. long highway trips I might see 31mpg. Usually just a bowl of cereal for breakfast. Neighbors on both sides have Marmalade cats, as do we. Do you think its the cats?
Maybe not originally designed that way, but modern spreadsheets are very servicable flat databases. I've been enamored of the relational database model ever since I learned about it, but it is not the only one out there. For data without complex relationships, a flat file database, such as IMS or a spreadsheet is fine.
Personally, though, if there is no calculation to be done on the data I am putting in my flat file, I use the tables feature of whatever my word processor happens to be. Or just commas, sed, and awk if I happen to be feeling unixy that day (I can't to PERL without a reference book handy)
Sure, run it in virtual machine, and set up a firewall so that only packets going back to the spammer can get out. They see all their status information, nothing goes out to the world at large.
Censorship is bad. It always has been and always will be. But censorship is imposed by an outsider. This is a choice made by the viewer, to view this movie on this device, as opposed to a conventional DVD player. Similar to the made by the listener to listen to music on an IPOD, as opposed to on the CD, as the people making the music intended.
If you support fair use (as your sig indicates that you do), why do you condemn people viewing the movie as they wish do view it?
Do you violate the creator's vision by listening to tracks on a CD out of the sequence intended by the creator? What if the whole Album is intended as one creative unit, such as The Who's Tommy, or Pink Floyd's The Wall?
I often get free food from computers by inverting the keyboards on public use terminals and shaking them. Usually there is a great variety of crumbs from many different kinds of cookies and crackers.
Yep... A small project team in a big company is not likely to have a C programmer and a DBA. But they all have access to Excel, and at least one of them with the {time|knowledge|inclination} to put together a really complicated spreadsheet.
Hell, I py about 40 or 45 a month for cable. I don't watch any TV, my kids watch 2 channels and my wife watches 1. I'd be money ahead at 10 bucks a channel.
I think this is the key question... who asked for the research. Notice (in the MSNBC article) the line
"The measure has been pulled from the agenda, although Norman said the city may still eventually ban foam cups."
So someone decided styrofoam cups were bad, went out looking for supporting evidence, and was unable analyze the data he found. Since this got as far as it did, it is clearly someone with the ear of a councilman.
Who is pursuing this agenda, and what other causes are they pushing, possibly with equally flawed evidence
No, we'll just put and end to government funded healthcare, welfare and such. Then people will be free to turn into ignorant turds with out the resultant drain on our pocketbooks from drug laws or from handouts.
That is an interesting observation. It is a lot like the old (but true) saying about guns, guns don't kill people, people kill people. Email systems don't send spam, people send spam.
Guns and email systems are just enabling technology. The rub is that email systems are just more efficient than guns. I'd guess there are more murderers than spammers in the world, but we'll all get spam tommorrow, and not many of us will be murdered.

While you are processing all this information, have it translated into Hindi.

I guess he carries two now. Must have a lot of affinity cards.
Problem is, running a spell checker would have used .16 teraflops of the machine's capacity and cost it the record.
I assume that you are mostly harmless, then?
I hate Hawaiian shirt and jeans day. Where do they get off telling me I have to wear pants to work?

Strangely, Duct tape is not all that good for ducts.

I've been married for 11 years, used Palm OS for 5 years, and I am still completely out of sync with my wife

Maybe? worth a try.

Aren't you taking a Risc, giving a kid a name like that?

Mine was 3 when he poured glue into my overpriced ergonomic keyboard.

Vaguely remember the game. I'm thinking the ban was related to the German ban on Nazi related themes.

I wear one for the same reason. But I have one with a separate digital clock, set in 24 hour time for times I write on the PCR.

No point. Just an observation.
