Congratulations on your first comment to/., Bliss_Kiss. I suspect that you probably did not mean to reply to my comment, which was typical mindless drivel for which I am becoming well-known and highly regarded. Next time, you should press the REPLY button just below the article, and above all of the comments, to post a first-level comment, just FYI.
It sounds like it's time for some more rich businessmen to brush up on their lab-skills. Didn't the last guy wind up doing some grunt-work? I suppose these experiments take lots of training and practice to perform in 0g, but hey, a warm body is a warm body, as they used to say in the boom.
Change their policies? Towards what? Towards not wanting to be driven into the sea, perhaps? They tried. They were ready to give up even more. Now that time is past.
Deal with what? Deal with the fact that most everyone could care less about the jews except US? Thats what we have been doing rather nicely for a long time. Now is not the time to stop, imho.
Thanks for pointing that out. Sheesh, you coulda heard a pin drop in here. I was cracking wise, of course. I too am dismayed when that kinda shit (reposting proprietary code by corporate lackys to setup future lawsuits) happens, but also thankful that it can _still_ happen.
I suppose a true cleanroom implementation means not reading slashdot then?
I think most support delivery of justice (by 12 of us together in agreement, or by one very intelligent and wise Judge...) to criminals everywhere, whether they are terrorists, corporations, or governments.
And as to support?
Well, for some issues, polls mean nothing until judgement day.
I guess it was a pretty good review of the critical points of the settlement, for those of us who just want to be spoon-fed the points to complain about to the DoJ. Now, if I address only those points, will it mean as much as if I had carefully read and mulled over the entire settlement?

Wiring A New House?

Perhaps going a bit off topic, but,
one other thing to think about, before you sheetrock, is deployment of sensors for eventual energy management (smart-house) systems, and fire/burglar alarms and intrusion-avoidance systems. Typically, these systems require shielded 1 or 2 pair leads to analog boards which then convert to digital and feed the controller. Having these planned and at least the wire in place can save unsightly wires on the wall later.
Depending on the construction and how he will use the ceiling space, conduit could be quite a luxury. Most wood-frame houses dont have a speck of conduit, relying on romex through the upright members, typically 1-2 rooms per circuit.
Conduit would be great, but requires a whole different kind of electrical contractor/installer, typically. (one who can use a pipe-bender quite proficiently)
In any case, if you do use conduit, be sure to follow the rule of at least two, tagged fishlines on every pipe from every jbox, for later use of pulling new wire in to the existing pipe.
Back on topic, I believe that ethernet in the walls is more than sufficient. One can always bridge to a fiber link at the termination in the future, but the last-mile question for fiber is far from being answered clearly, it seems.
In a sobering and insightful comment, sholton wrote: It can be built or rebuilt to suit whatever criteria its builders choose.
While I do see and concur with a number of points you make, this one is just a bit naive, I feel. The very criteria of the internet is that there is no criteria. No one single company or provider has the time or the manpower to make such evaluations, much less dynamically, of their customers. Bulk mail and spam will be the way of things for a long time to come, I think. At least until neural is adapted to such a job. Data mining for the sake of targeted marketing is one thing. But customized content is still just a pipedream in the bowels of the marketers.
Btw, the port25 comment doesn't really make sense to me. Perhaps some providers have disallowed port 25, but most of the recent worms propogated automatically over port 80.
As a UPS, this thing could probably be matched (6hr/500w) by a few more lead/acid batteries under your desk. The cool thing is that you can buy these now just like any other (very expensive) generator. Coleman has invested the capital to make clean power available, and I for one hope they find a way to make it extremely profitable. (and somewhat more affordable)
How can this be modded up without some kind of substantiation? From an AC? From reading the actual experiment details, it sounds like this enzyme is some kind of bio-saltpeter...
Good points, every one. Sadly, most companies now have a hiring freeze. We're stuck with messes that the contractors scrambled to finish just before they were sent packing.
Many of these "innovations" replaced decent, reliable (if a bit tempermental) systems. It's good to see one company prioritized pragmatism above glitz, buzzwords, and hype.
To be fair, inhouse developments can also become big messes.
Slashdot Mirror
Um, not really my specialty, no.
Worked on several computer centers with raised floors and wiretray, tho. Definitely the way to go if you can raise floors and/or drop ceilings.

The older version of Ebola is popping up again. I dont know about the possibilities with this new stuff.
It's mostly about 9/11, sadly.

I really prefer 277, too. (Ever do the 480 shuffle? :)

Just wait for some AC to post them here.

First DNS manipulation in an attempt to block nazi sites, and now this. I guess they have good intentions, but it's just tilting at windmills, imho.
You and your moderator are confused and pitiful.
I just happened to be reading there after the posting on their architecture about an hour ago. No conspiracy here, folks.

I can cover my walls with this stuff for only 30 grand.
I'll also be a client!
Even the MPS/Oracle part is driven by perl. MySQL still holds the content and the users.
I do like the bit near the end about cost and time-to-market, tho. ;)

Not everybody. But I'll be more than happy to license this capability to you. I've left my card on your website.
