Object Pascal (delphi) is used to make applications, games or anything C and C++ is used to make. Is this free pascal object pascal or just regular old pascal?
Evolution will still occur naturally. Just the type of things that would end your blood line are getting less physical and more mental. Probably for the last couple thousand years we haven't evolved physically at all (except we're a couple feet taller on avg) but today's average joe is a lot smarter than back then.
moved a critical function from one class to another - still puzzles me why 25%
critical as in function-calling overhead is affecting performance? if you moved it from a big class to a little class you may have reduced the size of the stack that's allocated before calling the function.
I've actually never seen 12 monkeys. I probably wont now that I know it's based on a 12 year olds perception of time travel. Your gun would jam or you'd have a heart attack? Thats nonsense.. wouldn't your time machine break and you wouldn't be able to even try, after all there's no documented history of an attempt on his life or ANY time travellers for that matter.
Are you a time traveller? Didn't think so. I am, in fact, a time traveller. What happens once you leave this dimension to travel to another one you can do anything you want, however you can't return back to your original dimension because it becomes impossible to find. For instance, I went back about 30 minutes to fix a spelling mistake in my original post. The dimension I left is now missing a me (unless me from another dimension happens to populate it (possibly correcting a different spelling mistake)) and me in this dimension can't return to that one because I'd never find it since I would have to predict all the events in the universe since the fork 30 minutes ago and I'd much rather stay here 30 minutes behind because it's similar enough to the place I left and I don't feel like killing the native version of myself again.
I'm sure you meant to say that if you travel back in time to shoot hitler, you could in fact shoot him, just that once you left on your mission to shoot him you could never return to that same place because that place exists in a relative path from a place where hitler was not shot.
Of course if you could transcend time and thus travel freely thru the infinite possible dimensions, why would you want to go and shoot hitler.. the dimension in which you shoot hitler would probably cast you a pretty dark lifetime anyways. You'd be better off choosing a dimension where somebody else shot hitler and has yourself cast as a young millionaire or something.
The single-walled carbon nanotube samples in this situation were just a jumble of tubes. They were not laid out in any pattern, and because of that, the heat generated from the flash could not dissipate, so the nanotubes just burned.
Performance of what? If the kernel can handle function calls faster than applications can call them then there's no bottleneck. If any kernel functions are likely to be called a million times a second there should probably be alternate versions designed to avoid message passing overhead. That goes for macro kernel designs as well.
What's rediculous is having to recompile C code to remove unwanted bloaty functionality. What's that do for QA? No two compiled kernels are the same, depending on what got commented out, compiler, settings, etc. Thats the concern with stability.
Why worry about whether or not newly added stuff is going to break. If the scope of each layer is limited properly the kernel can be fundamentally stable.
what's wrong with a modular micro kernel design? why must these things be compiled in? what about late binding? I've never been a fan of the macro kernel design for exactly these reasons and it seems like obviously the wrong design for a kernel anyways?
dual core and smp are like apples and oranges. two cpus are two cpus.. the OS sees them and uses them as it does other resources. dual core the OS does not see, the cpu employs the two cores to execute more pipelines in parallel. a car with two engines is not the same as two cars.
I think it may not be important at all. Studying the patterns that come up in determining all possible groups that add up to a certain number seems pointless. take the number 8 for example
there are 22 ways to 'make' 8. and this is suppose to be important for some reason.. but it ignores negative numbers entirely! if you include negative numbers then there are infinite ways to make any number.
its like the pattern when you multiply 11111x11111 and see 123454321.. it seems interesting if you punched it into a calculator, but when you work it out the long way you realize the pattern has nothing to do with the numbers just how we write them.
it makes sense to use a seperate partition so that you can use the appropriate filesystem.
I always wish someone would make an ultra fast affordable 4-8gb drive specifically for swap space. I hate having to use my main raid for scratch because its a waste of resources, and I hate using a dedicated drive cuz' its either a waste of space or a crappy old drive.
this isn't a jigsaw solver. the puzzle needs to be created with the glyph marks already. its like each peice has an embedded watermark telling the program where it goes.
at first glance I thought it was a program that could solve jigsaw puzzles by analyzing each piece, its shape, the image on it and figure out where it goes in realtime. that would be really interesting as it would probably have to employ some crazy neural net algo to avoid exponential time.

you have to kill him.. you get used to it

it'd be a different place for each time traveler. where they all intersect is where they all started
Probably didn't explain it very clearly. ;)

Therefore, I've often considered all the universe to be one giant, multi-dimensional fractal.
You know why they are called "fractals"?

Here's more info on micro kernels and why they rock

why doesn't AMD play that game? They could've done the same thing yesterday and beat intel to the punch
Read this and look around here
unless you grow your own food, MSG is in just about EVERYTHING you eat. It helps you to be a good consumer. good consumer. goood.
10000 random bits..
int x = now
for i = 0 to 10000
x += (x >> 1)
print(x && 1)
not very random.. the penny has 66/33 probability of landing on the same side as when you flipped it

Intel got spanked by AMD's on-chip memory controller. The cpus support 64bit, but they handed intel its ass in 32bit mode thanks to the lower latency.
It was quite a strategy show boating X64 while the memory controller silently kicked ass.
well for the most part they use "EE" in place of Extreme Edition.. maybe later on they can give it a better definition like Extra Expensive
