Evidence shows that marine mammals, and I am talking cetaceans here, not pinnipeds ( which are ocean-going dogs ), are quite intelligent. They only lack technology.
You know, there probably aren't a lot of Osama bin Ladens out there, but I don't have access to a Yemeni phone book, so I don't know if the bin Laden name is like the Yemeni version of 'O'Hara', but I've got to believe that there are a least a hundred guys worldwide named Saddam Hussein. There's only one Saddam Hussein al-Tikriti ( they got him ), so all the other ones should be off the hook now.
If they need to communicate something complex, they will simply meet in person in a crowded public place.
The structure of these cells is that there is a logistics man acting as a hub between the planners, money guys, suppliers and the people who carry out the attacks. None of the players in each sphere know the others or will ever talk to each other. You can tap phones all you want, but if you never catch the man in the middle, you will never successfully penetrate the cell.
All this NSA communication intercept stuff is providing pointless busywork for analysts somewhere in Virginia. We could forgo the sexy technology for a few well-trained infiltrators at mosques with radical clerics and get much better results, but being actually competent doesn't seem to be a priority for the people in charge at the moment.
Eclipse differs from NetBeans in one significant way, which is that Eclipse is not specifically a Java IDE. I'm doing development with J2EE right now, and am aware of two tools that make this pretty easy: MyEclipse which costs money, and Eclipse's own WST. So yeah, trying to get plain old Eclipse and Java to work well with J2EE stuff is difficult, but the tools I just mentioned are very well supported.
I can just as easily start working in C++ with Eclipse, because it's not designed for any one language. That's very powerful.
NetBeans makes it easier to work with J2EE right out of the chute, but Eclipse is more flexible. I've used both NetBeans and Eclipse, and most of my team uses Eclipse, I use it mostly, and a lot of that is because I like Eclipse's interface to VCS better than NB. I also don't like how NetBeans puts jars in my Tomcat directory, and alters its configuration. I don't know if it does that with other servlet containers, but it does with Tomcat.
Possibly. I can see how if you merely provided the basic ISOs, and not the commercial stuff that you get with a purchase, you might be OK. I run SuSE 8.1, and the CDs are clearly marked as to which ones contain undistributable material. Still though, I'd make it perfectly clear that anyone who downloads and uses those ISOs is *not* entitled to customer support, or even automatic updates via YAST2. A good operator can get by without YAST2, but you have to figure out what it does, and try to mimic that behavior. Hopefully the ones with this new one will be similarly marked, after all, SuSE has nothing to lose and everything to gain by moving in to get market share in N. America from RH.
If you can believe it, Amber Benson would probably be considered "too heavy" for Hollywood. Don't get me wrong, she's a great actor and very attractive, but those curves are just too dangerous for Hollywood...
Yeah, they are legal, but only legal to sell or distribute through officially sanctioned and taxed entities. ATF is responsible for busting moonshiners, people evading tobacco stamps, and the guy selling pistols out of the trunk of his car without a FFL.
I really couldn't care less about moonshiners and off-license tobacco traders, but illegal firearms are a problem that needs to be addressed.
I still use my HP 32S which I got in high school. I love it, and RPN is totally the way to go. The only trouble is that I'm in B-School, so I have to enter in all those NPV and IRR equations, rather than having them built-in. Somewhere, I have an HP 12C, which would probably be better, but until then I'm happy with my 32S.
You are so right. That's probably the most succint way of describing the best, most competent IT pros I've known, and more importantly, how to identify good ones at places where you work, or people at customer and partner companies. Always try to find these people, they are your greatest ally.
You're not required to sign it at all. Ask anyone who works in a restaurant. Back in my waiter days, I would sometimes get a credit card receipt with the tip filled out and no signature (at least they remembered to tip). What did I do? At the end of the night, I did the adjustment and ran the batch job and treated it like any other credit card receipt.
You've agreed to pay by virtue of giving them your credit card and allowing the business to run the card.
I often wondered if these people thought that they were pulling off a slick "dine'n'dash" by not signing the credit card receipt.
The purpose of having them sign the receipt is so that you can compare the signature they provide to the one on the card to head off fraud, not to complete the transaction.
Andrew Jackson is widely know as "the wild man" of US presidential history. Jackson was a pop star for many years before becoming president, and he's well known for throwing huge, multi-day parties soaked with booze and (then legal) cocaine.
He used to greet joint sessions of congress by yelling "Are you ready to rock!?"
It's in worse taste to senselessly stick to an ancient, easily counterfeitable design just because some people can't handle subtle changes in the appearance of our currency.
Trust me, they will still be worth what they are worth, and even more so because they're getting harder and harder to counterfeit.
And they're still green, just other colors as well.
For years, the Treasury resisted making changes in the currency for precisely the reason you state. It wasn't until it became crystal clear that the old design was among the most easily counterfeited currencies that they decided to change them. I welcome any improvement in our currency that thwarts counterfeiters.
I love dollar coins, and wish we could convert to using them instead of dollar bills.
Unfortunately, there's always pushback when it comes to dollar coins, for whatever reason. I remember hearing someone testify at the hearings about dollar coins that people will think that the dollar is "worth less" because it's in coin form. It's silly, but that appears to be a factor.
Why do we honor Grant on the $50? He was a drunk and not an especially notable or successful president. The choice of what presidents ro put on the money has always eluded me. I think we should put FDR on the $20, but that would offend too many people at the American Enterprise Insititute.
Yeah, but I bet getting poked in the eye went up big time when 'The Three Stooges' was popular. That was, of course, until the old putting-your-hand-up-sideways defensive maneuver was discovered.

I like Poseidon, from Gentleware. There's a free Community Edition available and it works pretty well...

'Mature' is another way of saying 'vendor lock-in'...
These big, proprietary systems and their requisite entourage of consultants and proprietary tools are about to go the way of the dinosaur.
Of course the guy from SAP is trying to steer people away from OSS components.

Because if you are, there's a bridge in New York I'd like to sell you.
I really couldn't care less about moonshiners and off-license tobacco traders, but illegal firearms are a problem that needs to be addressed.
You could save your company millions of dollars, and then they'll pay attention to you.
That is fucking classic... I can just imagine rummaging through the shampoo for my .emacs file.
I guess "always on" is one of those corporate free speech kind of things...
1.5 million Poles during the invasion of Poland and subsequent occupation.

That's where all the secret pervs that make laws like this go to watch porn, drink whisky and smoke cigars.

Chile uses a currency called the Peso. Are you sure you're not thinking of Ecuador, which does use the US dollar as its currency?
Trust me, they will still be worth what they are worth, and even more so because they're getting harder and harder to counterfeit.

That'd be a big help.
For what? Counterfeiting?
Yeah, but I bet getting poked in the eye went up big time when 'The Three Stooges' was popular. That was, of course, until the old putting-your-hand-up-sideways defensive maneuver was discovered.
