I use this all the time, and it works relatively well.
Version 1.1 had "broken" support for some clients and the revision mecahnics left a lot to be desired: If you modified a file under Windows WebDAV support, anyhow, it would see it as a "delete file", "create new file" pair. You can still go back a version and get the previous version, but the file history is broken. If you log in to the repo with a username, it does track who you are.
Version 1.2 supposedly fixes all this so it "just works". I have not had time to upgrade yet. Modifications are logged as modifications, etc.
How does your post make sense? If you were leaving from Klamath Falls (population 19000, according to one web site), there is little to no chance that an express train would stop at your station. It would be great for people going from Los Angeles to Portland, but it wouldn't get you there any faster!
In many cases, people in the outlying, small towns take Amtrak *because* they stop at their little town - its easy to get to the station if you have a small town.
Seems to me this is the way they are going to be able to seed their "TrustRank" metrics that they want to deploy. Why bother hiring "experts" to rank webpages when they can deploy a tool that will let all their users do it for them?
While their spider has no choice but to assume that all 10 links on a page are relatively equal, you and I rarely click on links that are clear spam or advertising, and certainly would not continue to browse a site that was simply there to spam the search engines.
They can measure both where people go, what they click on, and how long they stay there with this tool, so they can determine with high accuracy how important various sites are to various internet users.
Digital records are real, but not "authoritative" (or "real" since that is a key critera) in the same way as a paper record. It is a heck of a lot harder to change or create a new paper ballot in the amounts needed to swing an election (1000s? 10000s?) than it would be to update a database table.. Also easier to secure in transit and prove they haven't been tampered with.
Keeping in mind that she (O'Connor Kelly) was hired AFTER the company got investigated, and most of the articles note she did at least try to reform things, and certainly made some difference.
This is like complaining that a crash expert is brought in to a car company after it is shown that the cars they make are unsafe in crashes, then turning around and saying the expert is somehow responsible for the previous problems.
Come on now. It is only a 20 year extension. That seems pretty limited to me as far as a timeframe goes. It extended the term of copyrights by less than half the existing term.
If copyright terms were previously 1 year and now they were extending them by 20 years I could see a problem. Or if they extended them to 2000 years. But really, it is the job of Congress to get feedback on issues like this and pass laws that reflect that.
The only argument I've seen that this isn't limited is that they "might do it again" in 20 more years. Thats a reason to push for legislative action on the issue, but is a pretty weak argument that a short extension is somehow unlimited in scope.
(a) I wasn't disagreeing, just pointing out that in addition to possibly being silly it was also wildly inaccurate to boot
(b) It is possible that his method of measurement would not conform to his equation, this being theoretical physics and all. What if his measurement device showed they were in fact oval because it worked on a previously untested method?
Don't forget - the speed he got was.95 times the speed of light with a margin of error of.25. Thus, for all we know it is faster or slower than the speed of light. I suppose it did disprove someone that says that gravity works instantaneously, but who was saying that exactly?
the main overhead is the 32bit -> 2048 bit maths for each check 64bit ->2048 bit should have about half the work load and be able to check the whole keyspace a lot! quicker.
Depends on how you define "a lot". 2^1024 divided by two (a two times speedup) is then reduced to 2^1023, which is still really, really big. You haven't reduced the overall work much at all.
Who said the patron would be charged? For the same price as the library currently pays to have a book on the shelves, they could pay the "electonic file" price and for many readings as well.
Clearly, an exact duplicate of the existing system with pay-per-read royalties wouldn't work. But what if this hypothetical library can "buy" books for 1/10 of the current price in electronic form, but pay a small amount for each reading?
Small libraries would suddenly be able to have millions of available volumes, and users of the library will have far more choice than before. The tradeoff would be that money previously spent in acquiring actual paper and storing it would be spent in paying for an equivalent amount of "electronic publishing" or use fees.
Thats why you use
rdiff-backup, which lets you pull up "yesterday's rsync". It is actually a quite nice system that does reverse diffs on the data, over a SSH connection by default.
Thankfully X has already fixed that problem. The new RandR extension will allow for this kind of resizing, and it is only a matter of time before all the apps that need to support it do (and there are a lot of ways to make it usable in the meantime).
The answer depends on the antenna you hook up to it. With a good omnidirectional antenna on a mast on the roof you could well get a mile or so out of it.
A directional antenna pointed at the park across the street from a 5th story window would work great.
From what I have seen, most of the "culture change" in this direction has been tied to the visibility of the employee. If they have a role that they are in contact with customers (even a remote chance of it), it makes a lot of sense that they follow some standards.
In the past, however, a lot of companies let things slide since having a disheveled programmer that the customer only talked to once in a while was better than no programmer at all. Places like consulting firms won't put up with it at all anymore since everyone there has some chance of customer interaction.
Thankfully, thats exactly what SuSe did. The whole thing is just a lot of open source products sold together.. Cyrus IMAP, Apache, etc. It won't interoperate at all with clients expecting an Exchange server from what it looks like.
It depends on when you think an attacker might be trying to get on your network.
Will it stop a casual user just trying to hook up with your AP to use it for a minute? Sure. But those MAC addresses are being transmitted all the time, so if you actually use your network and someone is listening in, it would be trivial to spoof MAC to gain access.
The thing most posters here are glossing over is the major point of the article - that paper is being used in greater quantities, but not so much to keep things around. I can second this in my own experience - almost all the work I do is in a computer somewhere, but almost all of it has to get printed out to show to someone for comments or to present to a client.
Little of the paper is actually useful after a few months, so I end up just sticking it all in a box with the date on it here and there and never looking at it again. If I need "that one document" it is almost always on the computer.
There is, however, no way on earth to get good meetings done with just a computer. Paper is great for the short-term.
Mostly because they don't care much at all about the admins of servers they are sending their tripe to. If you run a properly configured mailserver, such as qmail, many of their requests will triple-bounce and end up in postmaster's mailbox.
Which is annoying. And they refuse to skip certain tests for platforms that are 99% sure of being secure against that attack, and refuse to have a valid envelope address (they basically are sending forged emails out). They are only a step above the spammers, and in my case I get more "spam" from them than from spammers.
On what basis do you think he can "change the license at any time" any more than RMS could change the license of GCC anytime he wants? DJB straightforwardly addresses that point in his licensing page.
Well, I'd more accurately say that it is "from each according to his needs", which is really why Linux is like it is - a OS designed to solve problems that programmers have had.

No, thats aerobic excercise. As is DDR, unless you're doing the equivalent of sprinting, which I have yet to see.

Why is this crazy? I have a gigabyte of RAM in a lot of machines, at work and at home.
When is white history month, or chinese history month, et al?
Directly after a long period of government sanctioned slavery of whites and chinese.
