Isn't "small" RNA properly called "transport" RNA? Or are these not the same thing? If they're both the same thing, then the discovery was about a couple of years ago, IIRC.
The performance of the IDE drives are almost the same as their SCSI counterparts. Amazing!
IDE to SCSI converter = US$99, ATAPI to SCSI converter = US$109. Both are MSRP.
IMHO, that's a really good bargain. This also proves that the real bottleneck in the IDE drives is actually that for one IDE bus, only one device can be active at a time.
You're probably new, but as always in Slashdot, whatever is cool gets posted.
Secondly, this movement "sort of" unite the geeks in NZ, as alluded in the page. Why don't we support them?
Thirdly, you may bicker about your indifference, but be thorough to your reading, lady! Here's the quote that may elucidate you:
GEEK.NZ will provide a place in the DNS where the community of technical people in New Zealand can express itself, thrive and expand. Providing recognition to the technical community in this way will allow New Zealand to demonstrate its commitment to the people who fuel the knowledge economy, and help slow the otherwise steady procession of technical people leaving the country every year.
.... I guess it's just MSXML rather than THE standard XML. But we can figure it out with some "intelligent guesswork" now because the file would be human-readable.
Well, I also caught viruses in DOS days. What I use is just a 1024 byte of code. The first one contains a long jump to the end of the code (which is simply mov ax,4c00; int 21h; that's 5 bytes). The middle 1019 bytes are pure junk. Most viruses can be caught this way.
For hiding itself when we read the file: That's very easy. I used PCTools to examine the file slack. Usually, the viruses put themselves right after the file and the file slack sometimes one or two extra blocks than necessary so that it's easily identifiable from the FAT table.
The hard part is when the virus also garbles your catcher program. However, since you have the catcher, you can always compare the files and look for differences.
Yes, it matters. It may create a domino effect to other DVD parts as well, thus creating a cheaper system in overall. It happens in all electronic products throughout history. It always starts with a measly drop of a key component.
It's pretty popular down here in Indonesia. It's used to alleviate exhaustion:
Half glass of milk, two raw eggs, 4 spoons of honey, 1 spoon of ginger powder, and (if any) 2 spoons of ginseng powder.
Mix all the ingredients up (of course you have to throw away the egg-shells). Serve hot. You may add some chocolate powder or sugar or some more ginger powder.
This tastes good and it works for me. (No, this is no kidding). I usually add quite a lot of ginger powder for a fiery hot taste. YMMV.
Author seemed to not consider Scheme and Prolog. Meanwhile its not widely used, they find a niche in research community. They use different paradigm, not just a mere different syntax.
It is true that general programming language is dominated by OO-based or imperative based programming language, but things keep improving. Like Java -- it includes features on type safety to some extent. Newer programming languages are designed to ease developers for rapid development phase and overcome various limitations from their predecessors. Thus, developers in turn do have choices: Whether they want to use the newer ones or not.
Since programming languages are designed to ease users, they are specifically designed with as minimal amount of learning as possible. Hence, since virtually all programmers are familiar to C/C++ syntaxes, the design of the new programming languages tend to adopt them in the hope that the language will be quickly embraced. Thus, this explains why the newly programming languages are like C/C++ or using this paradigm.
Now OOP paradigm has "invaded" the market. Aspect Oriented Programming is yet another new concept to supplant the OOP. When better paradigm comes, it will eventually be embraced after it has been proven cost-wise and time-wise worthy. We will witness whether this is true in the near future.
I think that Borland is trying to make its fan "feels like home", creating the "illusion" of being "cross platform". Thus, developers seeking to embrace Linux but reluctant to lose their Windows market can easily be lured in. When Linux gets stronger, Borland already has had a real good head start.
BTW, old text-based Borland IDE can be "simulated" using Twilight scheme.
First of all, it is NOT enough to employ only one diagram of UML. You have to use MULTIPLE diagrams to describe particular traits. So, class diagram must be accompanied by at least one of the behavioral diagrams such as state chart diagrams or collaboration diagrams.
Read the official UML books and you'll discover that there are three dimensions on the diagrams: structural, behavioral, and architectural. Any sufficiently large project should employ at least one of the diagrams that fall into each of the category to capture its holistic aspect.
The valid complaint is that the UML diagrams lack of coherence and details. For example: I found out that the three books (UML User Manual, UML Reference Manual, and the official UML Spec) are NOT consistent. Don't flame me on this. If you want to know, just find out about the event handling in state charts. Scutinize them in details. All three doesn't agree each other.
Lack of details hampers researches in this area. For example in state charts, how would you handle events? They say: Designer should not assume one. How can? The handling could dramatically alter the behavior of the state charts, whether it is buffered, channelled, direct, etc.
Because there is lack of details and coherence, you will find out that virtually ALL researches that claim using UML doesn't really have 100% UML conformance in it. Everyone assume their own form of UML, especially when there are no governing details.
Simple, they can choose which Linux they want. Many distros have downloaded versions ready.
As for the books, they can read howtos and probably contact local LUG guys. I know I'm going to be flamed for this, but most of the people needs to use computers just for typing, e-mails and browsing internet. Do you think they'll need books for this? Local LUG can volunteer here.
The aim in using Linux is to save millions so that the govt can relocate the OS budget for something else.
Slashdot Mirror
No, it was first discovered in 1993. But back then it was considered as anomaly. Now, the scientists figured out about what it is.
Here's a more detailed info.

I think lwn.net forgot this during November 2002:
RMS yet again tried to convince everyone to call Linux as GNU/Linux.
I guess he should change his name to GNU/Stallman first. :-)
This gives a whole new meaning to preemptive Slashdotting.

That was taken from here.
And You think that Chinese people loves western music very much? No, Sir. Ask any of them, most of them would say they prefer local Mandarin music.
So, yes... This is just about lies.
Remember that choosing a bank is not solely based on browser support, though...

Yeah, I still got my abacus... What a one-downer joke...
soon I won't be able to use my second favorite excuse for getting off the phone
Well, you still have the #1 excuse in your arsenal: "My dog ate my batteries!!"
Yes, but imagine having a cheaper portable DVD player, perhaps? How about exporting cheap players to third world countries? Imagine the possibilities.

Think over!
Some folks at Extreme Tech also said that DIY computers will be dead with more or less the same reasons. Is this a trend or what?

Well, we have one free already here
But 1c per share:
Amazon reported net income of $5 million, or a penny a share, under generally accepted accounting principles, well ahead of analysts' expectations.
