> (although making those lasers cheap, reliable, and phase-lockable will be a nice trick.
I did some research on this about 10 years ago which has come a long way since. Here's the first paper in bulk optics. We created both homodyne and heterodyne phase lock loops with two semiconductor lasers. In the heterodyne case we could lock with up to 24 GHz frequency offset.
A lot of the original work for this was done at UCL, check out their list of papers looking for 'phase-lock loop'. I believe they have also demonstrated this on chips too.
Perhaps another comparison worth making is Rails versus Trails for Java? From the trails site: "Trails is a domain driven development framework in the spirit of Ruby on Rails or Naked Objects."
Have a look at Scala if you are looking for a language that supports both paradigms.
From their site:
Scala is a pure object-oriented language in the sense that every value is an object. Types and behavior of objects are described by classes and traits. Class abstractions are extended by subclassing and a flexible mixin-based composition mechanism as a clean replacement for multiple inheritance.
Scala is also a functional language in the sense that every function is a value. Scala provides a lightweight syntax for defining anonymous functions, it supports higher-order functions, it allows functions to be nested, and supports currying. Scala's case classes and its built-in support for pattern matching model algebraic types used in many functional programming languages.
The maintenance tasks occur daily, weekly and monthly.
You can change the times that the scripts are run - just edit/etc/crontab. Do 'man 5 crontab' to learn more about it. Restart after you've edited the files - sorry I don't know a better way to restart the cron daemon, perhaps someone can tell us.
Alternatively, go to http://www.nonamescriptware.com and get Cronathon which will do the job whenever you like. They have some other nice stuff there too.
Another app that you can use is MacJanitor: http://personalpages.tds.net/~brian_h ill/macjanito r.html
Yes it would be problem but you don't need to have this new fibre running the entire length of the cable across the ocean floor.Coupling this new fibre to standard fibre at the terminal end will be trivial - standard optical components are available for that - the new fibre and equipment can be kept in a controlled environment.

I should have said that these are rates for Java developers.
... are currently around £450-£600 per day, typically £500 / day. Of course, a UK contractor lives in interesting times with IR35 tax laws. Channing

Tried that - windows still screwed up. I went on holiday for 2 weeks leaving my NT box running at work (doing absolutely nothing).
When I got back it took 4 reboots in the first hour + several more over the first day before it started working again.
> but from what I hear OSX is quite stable.
I've run OSX for 2 years, rebooting only after updates required it.
Its never crashed.

Kde is indeed available through fink and runs well: check out http://dot.kde.org/1022869694/
Trolltech has also released QT for OSX.

XP copes with the problem of lazy programmers quite well - you fire them. Well thats the preferred approach anyway ;)
Actually the XP community like CruiseControl a lot. A list of tools for XP can be found here: http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?ExtremeTools

By default, cvs version 1.10 is installed which caused me some problems when connecting from a remote client to a repository on OSX.
It was easy to build the latest version but I hope Apple updates the default soon.
