ahh, but your corollary doesn't appear to consider dupes, so the frequency of stories on Slashdot about the end of Moore's Law will actually quadruple every 18 months.
...for all we know they are looking back at us on earth back in 5000bc going nope no life.
Except, if you read the article, it states that Vega is 25 light-years away. This means we're each only looking at 1978. Say what you will about Earth at that time, but there were definately signs of advanced life.

or maybe they stopped bitching about the XML performance and found a faster/better way to parse it.
Nope, the original authors copyright notice has to remain in the source file. Go pull anything from the FreeBSD (or many linux drivers that were copied from the BSDs) source and take a look.
except your basic bsd license says "do whatever you want with my code, just 1) leave my copyright notice and 2) there is no warrenty associated with it"
no restrictions on remaining open source, compiling with other licenses, badmouthing the authors, nothing.
sorry, the "re-wire" comment was in response to the comment about seeing wires all over the place above ground. It all kind of slide together in my post.
It's all about early adopter. We invested huge amounts of money to wire up the whole country before nuclear was an option, and there's no way we can spend that much again to rip it all out and replace it with newer/better/safer alternatives. Same thing with our telephone system, cable tv, internet, etc. We're trying to squeeze every last ounce of usefulness out of the existing system, while so-called "3rd world" countries are getting the latest and greatest tech because they have no prior investments.
"Belkin is aware of some recent postings that claim that Belkin wireless routers are spamming users during the setup process and periodically thereafter. It is not now, nor has it ever been, the policy of Belkin to intentionally spam our customers or anyone else. Belkin offers a free trial of our parental control feature in our routers, and to make our customers aware of the feature itself and to give them the opportunity to take advantage of the free trial, we have tried to direct users to the information regarding the parental control features. However, since this has become a source of concern to our users, and it is Belkin policy to address the concerns of our users quickly, Belkin has decided to remove this function from the routers. Each router's firmware that incorporates parental control as an option will be changed.
Please expect more detailed information to follow early next week. Thank you."
and I'm sitting here wondering if these solar flares are really effecting our weather here as well. It's Nov. 4, and I'm sitting outside in shorts and a t-shirt because we're in the mid-70s in Missouri!
god I wish people would rtfa. There are at least 10 posts saying they should have used a source escrow incase of this situation.
The linked article says several of the VARs DID specify that exact thing, but when the company disappeared, the source escrow was discovered to be a lie.
I'm dissappointed in/.ers. I loaded the link an hour ago and it was at 54. I just checked it again and it's only around 5400. That is just not enough people clicking on submition links.
Do you even remember OS X 10.0? It's not the uber-leet 10.2 we all know and love today. Yes, it was leeps and bounds ahead of previous macos versions, but it didn't play dvds, it was slow as shit on older hardware, and it still looked and felt as clunky as os9. a lot has changed since then.
It's always been 3 download discs and a 4 disc set for sale, with the 4rth disc being a live cd. Now that there are 4 cd's to download, does that mean the set that will be shipped to me will be 5 cds? Care to answer Pat? I know you read and comment on/.:-)
I know your just joking, but bailing wire and duct tape are what's holding my car together. Bailing wire is holding the line from my gearbox to the stick, and duct tape is patching a hole in the bumper from when my sister borrowed the car 2 years ago:-)
the key is in your own sentence. lossy. That implies you are lossing information. It would be bad to loss any peice of anything you want to keep. image and sound compression can be lossy because they toss out parts we don't see or hear anyway, but do you really want to lose pieces of code?

exactly! I've seen the (horrificly ugly) hl2 source, yet it isn't public domain Darl!

It's too bad this year's winner of the American Solar Challenge couldn't raise enough money to ship the car to Australia and compete.
