Huh? 20MB is certainly large enough for BitTorrent to help.
And the patch is only suitable for people who already have 2.4.20. Everyone else either must download and apply multiple patches, or just get the full source and be done with it.
Cooler than.com and hotter than.us, a.la address lets people know not just who you are, but where you are!
Groan. Old white ad execs in business suits should never use the word "cool".
Seriously, though, what happens to the people and businesses of Laos? I know Toronto businesses already register.to domains from Tonga, but that's not "official", and presumably Tonga still controls the domain registration.
Ok, maybe not carpal tunnel, but other repetetive stress injuries are very much a risk. I don't need a study to tell me that. My own arm/wrist problems coincided with the writing of my Master's thesis. When I took a week-long break from typing, the problem went away.
Also, I'm a little confused on how can they say Apple used the trademark without a license. AFAIK Apple didn't use any source code from UNIX directly, they based Darwin from BSD, which in turn should have a clear relationship with the UNIX trademark, am I wrong?
Yep, you're confusing "trademark" with "copyright". Trademarks have nothing to do with source code.
My guess is it's even more simplistic than that. They probably just take the mean distances of the planets from the sun, and then place all the model planets in a row at those distances. The planets may never all line up the way they are in the model, because of the resonances among them.
You have macros if you MASM but these will simply be assembler instructions that are inserted in the place of the macro...
Right. And a C function is just assembler instructions that are inserted in place of the function.
Regardless, my point is only that machine code and assembly instructions don't match one-to-one.
...labels are simply memory locations and are not extra generated instructions.
Exactly. So a disassembler can't recreate them. Just like comments.
Branch optimisation is handled by the CPU itself and is applied to the instructions in memory at the time of execution...
No it's not. Branch optimization means turning a longer branch (eg. 32-bit offset) into a shorter branch (eg. 8-bit offset). Looking at the final machine code, you have no way to know which branch was in the original source code, and so the mapping is not one-to-one.
Slashdot Mirror
That's the symbol for the GNU/Turd OS.
Mods, please take a look at parent. I don't think it's a troll. I think it's just an attempt at humour.
Yep, semicolons is a dumb idea. Who says comments shouldn't be counted?
...or the two semicolons in a for loop.
The story sans registration.

I must say, yours is certainly the lowest Slashdot ID I have ever seen besides the people who run the site.
Um, SCO is Caldera. Same company.
Under US law, anyone can use any trademark they want if it's just for reference. It still has nothing to do with source code.
I take it to mean that it resembles POSIX.
'nuff said.
...and we all know there's nothing worse than to react with "horrow".
Yep, programmers in 100 years will react with horrow when they discover how we do things today.
So BitTorrent succesfully distributes bandwidth load, but not connection-rate load. I wonder if there's a way to accomplish the latter?
Here is a link. (Note that there are some typos, such as "minus 250 celcius" where they meant "minus 25 degrees celcius".)
Seriously, isn't this what BT was supposed to prevent??

If he just wanted to do us the favour of reducing download times, he could have used thumbnails.

If it were stationary, the dragonfly would just need to fly straight toward it.
