Thanks to the microkernel architecture you will no longer have to reboot system just to get rid of that stale lock on an accidentally removed USB disk or unmountable --bind mount in/proc/mounts due to non-existing user/usecount or due to some crashed driver locking up your PCI device etc. I could transparently restart crashed ntfs.sys emulated under Linux in 2003 while Linux kernel still can't do that with its native filesystems.
The primary thing I notice about fresh Java school grads is that there's nothing in their resume that tells me they can tackle hard problems. No pointers. No lambda functions. No backtracking. No first-class continuations. All the stuff that used to weed out people in CS programs is gone; that means I have to do the weeding. At least Javascript has brought some of that back.

The event/callback/state machine model is a pain to program in, but at least you don't have race conditions on shared data.
Tell this to the patients that were killed by the Therac-25. It had a race condition even though it was an event-based system that didn't use true threads.
Microsoft used this strategy to underprice Novel. With Netware, if you had n servers and m clients, then your cost was proportial to n * m. With Microsoft, it was more like n + m, which is weird but cheaper.
The U.S. government will have no incentive to fix the horribly broken patent regime until it repeatedly experiences the same harm that the rest of us have to endure. I find it unjust that the goverment can sometimes exempt itself from patent action when the rest of us don't have that option.

Fortunately there aren't other aircraft on the runway, unless you're Harrison Ford and the runway isn't a runway.
This is a crude idea.
It's a good thing he tested on smaller islands first. Now we know the weight of the batteries won't cause Puerto Rico to tip over like Guam.
Or, unfortunately, health clearance to ride a roller coaster.
What do you think a methane-oxygen burn produces? lead?
It's been too long.

Or, you could just reboot that 1 redundant VM
We're proud to announce that GNU Hurd can now save and load files.
All they have to do is use the optical plasma inductor to take advantage of the phased interface phenomenon.

Why does Ruby get its own color?

In other words, I have no reason to assign any meaning to these numbers.
Given the reaction to the previous article I don't know what this guy is even trying to do.
And why 6084? What is so special about that number?
6084 / 2 % 100 == 42
That is meaning enough.
This doesn't test the speed of generated code. I like to know which compiler produces faster code when looking at benchmarks.

So, you're saying that Exchange is qmail?
I guess you missed that headline... Boy eats own head!
Are you saying that Americans don't pay for ICANN?
Alternatively, you'd just be replacing one money-greedy organization with another.
Please give me my breath back.
