I should hope we have the technology to escape any problem that might cause us. Then we can come back in another billion and mess around with the younger races:-)
I support the use of calculators for complex operations as long as you know how to do it for smaller operations. You should be able to do 40339 * 49392 without a calculator, but it would not be evil to after you already know how to do it.
Spell checkers are not bad if they do not have to rely on them.
Same with the net sources, must be a 'reliable' source.
One thing that wasn't mentioned - contractions weren't allowed at one point, but now they most definately are.
I do not think that netspeak should be allowed in assignments, but like it or not they will probably get into the language just like contractions have.
Speaking of moon break up... I remember when I was watching the newest incarnation of the Time Machine the moon breakup thing seemed a little wierd. Is that actually possible for it to break up into some large pieces and smaller peices (all apparantly visible) and stay in orbit for 800k years?
But how would you explain the rings around saturn or jupiter? If I am not mistaken there is no solid surface for a big rock to hit to be able to eject debris.
Logic is certainly on his side. Severity of crime is a matter of society thought not necessarily logic. It may be perfectly acceptable (read: not severe) for me to kill my sister if she dishonours the family. Its up to society to decide that. And in some societies it is perfectly acceptable (or at least they wouldn't do anything about it). In ours, it isn't.
If we were to put it on an unhappiness as a way of deming punishment it is less in the society arena as it is in the logical. If somebody affects a lot of people then it logically would be more severe than if it affected only 1 person.
If you are using Word97 and somebody else is using WordXP. The other person will get the patch.
Opensource software now... You are using KDE1 and somebody else is using KDE3. Security Hole X that is in both. KDE3 will get 'patched' or at least fixed, I doubt that KDE1 will get fixed. The only benefit here is that you could potentially fix it yourself, but if you are using KDE1 i doubt you really would.
I found Farscape to be too far out there, almost as wierd (but not as good) as the Far Side comic.
Just too wierd for me maybe.

It is definately left over pairs on the primary. When you mean second dry lines, does that mean the second phone line has to be active at the phone company too? I know the alarm is setup to take over the phone (so nobody can use it) if it goes off.

I was trying to fix an RJ31X connection (for a house alarm) after messing with it (DSL, and filters...) and I shocked myself a few times... not on the tongue mind you.
BTW... does anyone know why an alarm would cut out the line (putting the % from 100 to 0 on the telephone guy's meter on the outside of the house) every few seconds? It didn't affect the voice communication, but we think that is what screwed up the DSL we used to have. Is that normal for an alarm, is there a way to bypass that or anything?
I had the side panel off of my tower off... I put it back on, it had sparks and smoke when I just put it against it. The computer shut off. I turned it on again, never happened again. (ATX style, K6-300).
To this day I never actually figured out what happened.

Of course this data is rounded, google is probably the best place to get this sort of data anyways - as google is the best search engine around right now.
A flaw: I bought the product not a license. I own that product, I will do what ever the hell I want with it. If it took defending myself than so be it.
The college I went to (note: college is supposted to be practical, whereas university is supposted to be higher level theory - at least in Canada, they aren't the same here) has a 'CPA' program designed so that people could be taken off the street. Some of those students had trouble picking up Java and VB. Most of them got it after a while.
I would not want to see what would happen if you taught them assembly first. I have seen one college in Ontario, Canada that teaches assembly in their CMP program in the last semester.
Canada Post (along with probably every other post office type company) provides a change of address you can purchase which will redirect your mail for a specified period of time for a fee. It is the exact same thing as what I believe they are trying to do, only it is redirected a lot later in the process of delivery (after the bounce). Is this what we call prior art?
The judge noted that investigators obtained a search warrant before viewing the vast store of data -- nearly 250 gigabytes, according to court records.
Wouldn't that take a 5H!T L04D 0F T1M3?
What will stop robots and other artificial life forms in future from being treated as subhuman, like many people were in the past (and unfortuneately in the present). I can see the day when we do have robots that are almost human, but will they be our slaves or our friends?
wxWindows provides a nice api that renders using a native method (windows uses windows controls, unlike qt which draws its own).
MFC is not going to be supported by microsoft now because of.Net (which also means platform lockin).
I can never recommend qt, because of its wierdness with having a preprocessor of its own. If you could, Objective C would be a nice language to do it in:-)
