Also, Atheros seems to think they're in a bubble as far as mfg's go, as other manufacturers such as Senao, turn conventional Prism2.5 cards into what Atheros avoids in the the first place, output adjustable cards. So far, the FCC hasnt ordered them to stop doing what they did to Prism chips, or the cards to be recalled - Atheros just has something to hide. This card is what I paid for, why should you prevent me from cranking it up to its maximum capability?
Well, I'm wondering where they get their numbers, since if you count worldwide users, doesnt Lineage II still beat them? Then again, Blizzard doesnt care to do a worldwide launch, but that's their loss. Much like their misuse of soulbound items and other interference with the game economy is a loss.
Well, there is the the real thing when it comes to POWER/POWERPC, but then there's no real competition (even though they are closer to Apple than Intel's machines) since their lowend machine outdoes Apple's high-end machines, and only goes upward in quality when at higher end models. If you were wondering, they *do* run linux if you cant stand AIX. To top it off, they dont have the secrecy or zealotry of Apple, so they Just Work.
The reason the IPAQs took off so well was the expandability - the sleeves meant you could put anything on to them, whether it was PCMCIA or dedicated GPRS. When they took those out, you might as well have a rebranded Axim - cheap in every wrong sense. When they bring PCMCIA back via sleeves, then we can start thinking of the hp series as of the line, not the current top-of-the line sleeved 5455 (and I wont have to go to Intrinsyc to spec a pcmcia dual slot into their models).
No, but I don't think that is necessarily a duty of a manager. In spite of that I think you are still wrong: he can (and does) stop accepting people's code if they aren't doing a job to his satisfaction.
Well, just at first, have it sent through another person to see about getting around political issues with the code. To confirm this, I'd like to hear what kinds of code that were refused due to reasons other than politics, and what was really wrong. The political reasons include patent and copyright issues.
I've used their minitower designs(Noblesse) for a conventional PC, and wouldnt hesitate to use something from Ahanix. Not a lot of slim design, but appears to be about the size of a ATX desktop case.
Anyone *outside* the Ivy Belt getting hired?

Sure, one has an easy shot if from an exclusive college, but has anyone made it through these interviews that was anything but Stanford (let alone Ivy League) material? If they're not doing that, they might as well be blueblooding their company. If anything, I'd put them through more hell to see if they're A)the typical Stanford exclusionist yuppie (Orkut, Sergei/Brin, Fiorina et al qualify), or B)a exception in Stanford admissions policy that turned out too well to drop(Your midwesterner with plenty of valid, workable ideas that would have had no resources to fufill them in normal situations). I'd dump the yuppie and take the person who really worked at it .
As far as the Atheros/Broadcom situation goes, cant just one host it in a country that either has A)lower standards that allow source to be distributed and/or B) is able to host such things in the case a country does not allow it (e.g. hosting in Sealand). Senao might have the firmware inplace, but that never stopped them from allowing power increases. Failing that, is there an open alternative to madwifi/ndiswrapper? (since "applying orthogonality to the problem" does NOT solve the problem. Same codebase, just a different way of passing information.)
Finally, what stops me from decompiling it and posting anything that works, presuming a wide enough distribution (similar to the Sveasoft situation)?
Now we just need a disaster such as the restarting of the Pakistan-India nuclear arms race (and the resultant detonations) and we have ourselves a finished recipe for US job market revival by a disaster trifecta.
Well, that's because they could be putting double standards into practice. Why not just post anon the names of the people? Sometimes these people need the hell they deserve.
Well, if there really was no American talent that could get these jobs, fine. But changing the requirements so that nobody in the world could have (e.g. 10 years of Java in 2000) to ones that H1B's. I seriously doubt that after looking in the whole country that they couldnt get who they were looking for in the US.
IBM reverses course and leaves Lenovo in the dust, citing lack of quality in Chinese engineering.
Carly Fiorina fired from HP for the remark "No job is god given", replaced by the founders of HP who cancel all offshoring also citing lack of quality.
No, they're already evil... These might be ones that would be more appropriate: Google hires outside the Ivy League, opting to look for competent workers from midwestern State level colleges and higher to replace fired workers from Stanford. followed by Orkut bought by Google, Invitations no longer needed.
-Well, Blizzard actually DID the X, Y, and Z
and -They took the bad parts and either dropped them, or made them good.
The problem is, that their intepretation of that comes up overly purist(and not in the good way). In other words, Blizzard interfers with conventional gameplay.
First of all, the geographical limitation to accounts - if removed, would have sharply reduced the wait times (and possibly have removed the need for a queue). Next, disallowing PvP to the point where there's potential for unchecked, unsolvable griefing - I'll decide who culls the herd ingame, and if someone is farming, I'll take care of it outside of town however and whenever. Also, nerfing just to stem farming is more harmful to the economy than the "IGE inflation" myth - it just gives godly weapons to the same types of people in a different manner.
Blizzard (anything) might be Manhattan, and Lineage II the Bronx, but mind that if you come prepared to Lineage II, you wont have the problems that Blizzard fanboys harp on. That also includes not having to deal with a company unable to allow criticism in its own forums.
Well, there is another PPC machine out there worth the $5000+ and is made from a company that learned not to use secretiveness 20+ years ago in the manner Apple does. They arent cheap, but they're definitely worth the money.
How would the law take into account systems with "more than one brain"? Right now, that'd be like Siamese twins, where both are separate identities. Unlike humans, CPUs cant sever themselves from each other(Virtual Partitioning would not do here, it'd make it worse).
Guess they still dont know about dd, and raw data copying, which should operate below whatever is messing with the data. Not to mention it, but if Daemon Tools seems to work right with it, it could appear to be ANY cd drive, let alone have easily changed identifiers. Obviously, these guys still dont get it right.
Well, it seems Google felt comfortable dealing with people of equally exclusive nature. When they start indexing colleges that dont require your soul(Yale+Harvard), $20k/year(all of them), or a bribe to the right person to get in(Stanford+MIT), Google will be doing no evil. But since their background precedes them, you might as well count them on doing evil, even if it looks like misplaced philantrophy.

As long as they dont go the madwifi route, whatever documentation can be had would be good. A HAL does not count, no matter how you do it.

Well, if you're willing to be a bit flexible, there are options for nonpurist gaming.

Well, the last shot they see would be the one that came before the whole thing got "accidentally fried".

More like James Ewing. One of the few who have sold GPL'd code and conned the GPL authors into accepting it.

They got close with the nuclear testing that went on, just that those disputes were "cleaned up" before the outsourcery began.
No, Google's exclusive nature would preclude them from logging IRC.

I'm still referring to CHRP, pre-Apple - microchannel bus, POWER2/P2SC CPU.
