Yeah, but switching from existing Ada implementations to Ada on dotWhatever might as well be switching to a whole new language/platform.
Microsoft had to change VB and JScript quite a bit to work with.NET. The same would need to happen with Ada, though to a lesser exent. Just that little bit of change would probably panic existing Ada developers (not to mention using the whole new package system).
As Microsoft says, C# is the best language to use for.NET. I don't think Ada would provide any advantages.
Don't get me wrong, it would be cool to see Ada for dotGNU, but I highly doubt many would care beyond just some academics:-/
Well, this is a surprising post. The thing about Ada is that the main point of it is the compilers and environments that are available for it (usually a lot of $ too). I really don't think people would care about running Ada on a.NET type platform.
At my job, we are switching away from Ada to Java. Enough said.

The above two posts are the most intelligent ones here, in my opinion.
This has to be the most hyped bad movie ever, or people are getting stupider at picking out bad movies.
BTW, whatever *really* happened with Tom Cruise's kid? (I can't remember the character name)
I have built 3 computers. All three I have bought parts from different places. It all boils down to finding the best deals.
shopper.com has price comparisons from many places, and that can be useful. COMPONENT PRICES CAN VARY WILDLY FROM DIFFERENT VENDORS!
You should check out buy.com, as they have a components section, and are usually reasonable on prices. If you want to buy everything from the same place without a lot of hassle, they might be your best bet.
or for gov't contractors. I am just out of school, and found a well-paying job with a bunch of old guys. There is going to be a lot of people retiring in this sector over the short term.
Imagine a hole through your head that is wide as a grain of pollen. So small, but would still do a lot of damage for sure. There might be an exit wound the size of a pin head, at the largest.
This would be fatal, as the brain would probably just seize until you are dead.
I have built a whiteboard that uses Mozilla's SVG capabilities, and it's nothing too productive at the moment. It crashes, has lots of bugs, etc. Plus it's not in the normal Mozilla builds.
One day maybe Mozilla will have full SVG support with good performance with now bugs in the regular builds. I don't see that happening for a long time, however.
This is an important pubic notice. Putting mobile phones in your front pockets or in your Levi's "Mobile Pants" can give you testicular cancer.
Using the 3G Network will give you cancer 3x faster than current phones. It's also 3x more likely that you will have a child that looks like Bill Gates of Ozzie Osbourne.
Finally, this bill also protect you from talking dirty or sending dirty messages over your cell phone. Please men, talk dirty on the phone, and use those testicles while you still have them!
and I took Networking from him last semester. He did a preliminary demo for the class, and I think that on the 32 bit PCI Gigabit cards, the effective throughput was around 250Mbps. Of course, the PCI bus was the limitation.
A 64 bit PCI card was getting significantly higher throughput. I don't remember the exact numbers, but it was much closer to 1000Mbps (maybe 800?).
Slashdot Mirror
Most of the pictures on that site are not loading (broken). Probably for a good reason.
Where does this guy get all of these lego blocks? It looks like he has all weird sizes too.
;-)
Maybe he cheats and makes his own lego blocks...

Please invite the person who wrote up this oft-posted drivel... so we can beat him/her up.
Also, be sure to setup some tables for the trolls, and then offer a free round of drinks... laced with something...

Oh, and the job is interesting.
Does doing things in a not-so-rigid manner help? I think so.
Students can focus on the problem, and not writing the syntax, complete with all the () {} etc.
Nice post. I am very unreligious, but these are respectable views.
I did this earlier and KaZaA crashed from all the results it was getting off that user.
Oh yeah, the best game ever! ;-) It was back then, anyway. We then had Marathon and Marathon 2.
BTW, there is a WinBolo (www.winbolo.com) out there complete with Internet servers. Doesn't seem as fun as it did back then though.
I might be, if more than 2 people come ;-)
He is on trial for laughing at a fat man getting mugged, by an alien.
Napster is a household name by now. Even my parents still recognize it. That is worth some $.
Duh!

This website is one of the worst designed I have ever seen. Stupid flip open Flash menus with tiny buttons, etc.
Where are the stupid pictures (direct link)? Thanks.
These frogs are being studied for their evolutionary traits. Right from the egss hatch the frogs, as there is no intermediate state of a tadpole.
Maybe the lack of an intermediate stage has made this species even more hardy, and therefore more prevalent in Hawaii.
No matter what, the Coqui are there to stay in Hawaii. They will just have to get used to it.

Maybe I would if a program could produce SVG and JavaScript to do the same stuff as Flash, and as good as Flash. Also a new plug-in would be needed.
Not likely to happen anytime soon, if ever. Plus if it did, Flash would still be better in most ways.

Let's say I have a business with several dozen computers. I have "illegal"/reused copies of Windows on all of them. Who cares?
What is Microsoft going to do to me? How would they even find out? Why are people scared of this?
In my opinion, do as much as you like with Windows installations, up until your conscious tells you maybe it's time to give Microsoft some $ credit.
I used to run a web server on my static IP @Home connection, until they went under. Now it's DHCP so no DNS possible.
:-( J/K
No more warez!
Too bad his monitor cutout is offcenter to the right. Very ugly. Otherwise, kinda cool, I might try it some day.
