If you asked something along the lines of "Would you support our troops if they went to war in Irak?", certainly a lot more people would have answered "yes" than if you had asked "Do you think the US should unilaterally declare war on Irak?". Are you pro-war if you answer "yes" to the first question?
it's possible to adjust the SA signal geographically, so they could degrade the signal in the middle east without changing anything in north america. This is the first step that seems logical.
Why? Aren't the terrorists more likely to strike in the US than in Iraq? And only terrorists need GPS, anyway.
So put "version 2" instead of "either version 2, or (at your option) any later version." [of the GPL, that is] in your licensing statement. Problem solved.

Einstein helped shape quantum mechanics. He took the formulae and derived results from them which are completely counterintuitive - most of these results could be proven by experiment afterwards.
Einstein was of the opinion that quantum mechanics wasnt the pretty everything-and-the-kitchen-sink theory, but he accepted that it had correct results.
Did you ever hear of e.g. Bose-Einstein condensation (atom laser) or the Einstein-Podolsky-Rose (EPR) paradoxon, both results predicted by Einstein and observed only during the last few years.
Quantum mechanics wouldnt be what it is today - physics best thought through (even though not understood) and tested theory, hadnt it been for Einsteins permanent criticism.
Since MP3 is suited to the average ear, you can hear a difference more easily, if you don't hear the whole spectrum, since you won't be distracted from the compressed part e.g. by some hihat you don't hear.
(Some people call this a "flanger effect on the low end of the spectrum")
It is an impressive piece of technology. You start the NUE and get your usual UNIX shell,/nue gets the root directory though, so your home directory in the NUE is/nue/home/myname.
The whole thing runs mostly IA32 binarys, but once you try to run IA64 code, it automatically triggers the SKI IA64 emulator via binfmt_misc. So it's really fast compared to a complete emulation, but still gives you a (more or less) native environment.
I have no idea, how they run this subsystem, it even has its own/proc, which is not in any way symlinked to the host computer's/proc, but still contains up to date information on everything.
(I'm using it for documenting how SGI's GPL Fortran 90 compiler interfaces their I/O-library, so that we can use it in GNU g95, the Fortran 95 compiler that is going to be part of GCC. See http://g95.sourceforge.net for information on this project)
the official reason is that this paper was intended for internal use and evaluation of the ministry, even though they published it the same way as all other KBSt letters, and the others are still available online. Go figure.
Checking the whole list of numbers would be a proof in the mathematical sense. But since theres an infinite number of even numbers its somewhat difficult checking every single number.
Im running my own builds here, because of my very own library setup (manually current-made Slackware 3(?).0). Im having debug disabled and optimizations enabled, and it is _really_ fast.
Im having problem ssince M8. Ive investigated into it a little, using ddd/gdb and found it behave differently inside the debugger, but still not running. Anyway, I posted it on/. and got the answer, threading was erroneous in glibc2.1.2, which I had, and a link to a glibc bug report (take a look somewhere down the old M10 post). That bug report fitted my observations (at least as long as I was running apprunner from a debugger) So I downgraded to glibc2.1.1 and am still stuck with the same problem:(
Installing glibc2.1.1 might do it for you. But it didnt for me.
And I thought they were going straight to M11...

anyway, I couldnt use it since M9 - I dont have the libstdc++ it requires (the one provided with egcs-1.2), I have gcc-2.95.1 instead. So Im compiling it myself. But it hangs on startup (yes, I have glibc-2.1) if I run mozilla-apprunner or doesnt find its resource if I run mozilla-viewer, therefore lacking its stylesheet, making pages unreadable. So I starterd cvsing the code every night, but it doesnt work yet.
This is the way they hope to make money of it. If someone doesnt want to publish his printers API and still wants to provide CUPS drivers he pays them the fee and gets the proprietary allowing license. If you dont like this fork and enhance it largely so that your CUPS is largely superior to theirs.
Shouldnt that read "found in domestic and foreign copies". I think national security of the US is much less related to spying on other countries than on spying on themselves (remember Colorado High School Massacre?). Oh, and Im much more worried if the NSA spys on me than if they spy on you:)

"IMHO nested procedures in Pascal encouraged a better programming style than plain-C did"
as long as you use the one-file-for-the-program approach Pascal forces from you (aside from units, accessed via far jumps) But still you get this long part inbetween procedure/parameter declaration and variable declaration, which makes it a little hard to read. Or could you use "forward;" with nested procedures?
If you use multiple files, the C style, using "static" achieves about the same thing, except you dont have to care about the correct nesting of procedures if you later on decide to do other procedures, which need those tiny helpers as well.
Japan is behind with regards to computers mostly because of their writing system. While latin-based alphabets like, e.g., the German or Spanish integrate quite easy into the anglocentric computing worlds character encoding, Japans 2*50+1940+x syllable and word symbols simply werent possible to implement (or paint readable) on early computers (those were only taught the 50 katakana symbols, but this f*cked up the ANSI-charset) and only in the past few years Japanese has become easily available on all the common computing platforms. Maybe this doesnt give Windows that big of a headstart - but still, we're only looking at standalone sales, and windows is distributed alogside a computer usually.
I feel very much like this page is not by the company we usually refer to as Toshiba, but another another Company. Did you notice they never use the Toshiba logo? Were you surprised Toshiba would use a 14.4 for their developers connection? Did anyone bother to compare the Kanjis of both companies?
