Those are MLC flash, random writes are going to be horribly slow and will reduce the wear life to months in a server application. Would be perfectly usable in a netbook/laptop application though.
The iPhone is.05% of world cellphone market, Blackberry is.72% (peaked at ~2.1%). MIDP 2.0 is a whopping 69.46%! All numbers taken from here. I would say developing for MIDP 2.0 and tweaking where devices significantly vary from the standard is probably the way to go.
Actually, HDCP isn't required for playback AFAIK, it's only required for full resolution digital playback IF the image constraint token is enabled which so far only a very small number of titles have turned on (and it has generally been acknowledged that the token being enabled was someone unknowingly leaving it enabled in the mastering package).
You're forgetting the asymmetry in most hourly employee relationships, the employee needs the job to survive and the employer can generally get buy without any given employee or position being filled. That's why we have employment laws, we tried the completely free market at the end of the 19th, start of the 20th century and we decided we didn't like it at all so we changed the situation.
Some of the time it's self inflicted though. We had one remote office that complained about the slowness of our timekeeping app, so we sent a sniffer laptop out to their site. It turns out the first thing everyone in that office did when logging in was tune into streaming radio stations (specifically called out as being not allowed in the employee handbook and AUP they sign annually) which utilized like 80% of their T1 leaving 300Kbps for 8 people to log into their timecard. We blocked the streaming radio stuff as well as told them not to try to get around the block and suddenly the site managers manual corrections in the timecard system went down 90%. We round down to the nearest 15 minutes and the typically boot time for our PC's is 5-7 minutes with about 15 being the max I have personally observed so it shouldn't be an issue most of the time.
I think he's talking about the fact that they couldn't jack up the barrier to entry for a Vista capable system and thus increase revenue and profit. Vista was an opportunity to stop the steady decline in average unit cost and hence revenue for the consumer product division.
Um, stripping and faking EXIF are trivial anyone with a hex editor and a little knowledge can do it. In fact when a new camera comes out it's fairly common to fake the EXIF of a previous model to use the RAW converters before a model specific one comes out. Oh and the scientists were talking about identifying a photo with the EXIF data stripped.
Wrong, their kids will be keeping the economy growing as you enter retirement thus making sure you don't have to work till you're 90 (assuming you ran your financial affairs in a halfway sane manner). Making sure we have an educated workforce AND electorate is the cheapest and best investment in the future we can make.
The interesting thing is with the x64 versions of Windows the install folder is called AMD64 since Intel was so late to the party with EMT64 that so much stuff would have needed changing that it just wasn't worth the risk. I also think it was developers quietly acknowledging the fact that it was AMD that advanced the ISA even if Intel did eventually follow their lead.
Yeah but if you throw in ram and the northbridge the Intel solution loses bigtime, especially in servers where the number of DIMM's goes up significantly.
Why would you throw away a resume just because they list their certs? I can see discounting or even skipping over the section, but throwing out a candidate because they gave you information seems to be a sure way to lose good people. I admit I'm on the networking side, but I tend to put enough information on my resume to show a wide variety of experience. I could show just the stuff listed in their job posting but then I'd probably get pigeonholed into some narrow focused job, I'm a generalist and would like to stay that way =)
Most modern ECC is multiword and can correct two bit errors so it's considerably better than the old single bit ECC. Going up just a bit there's IBM's Chipkill technology that throws a RAID controller on top of ECC ram to enable an entire chip to be lost. Chipkill is available from multiple vendors, not just IBM.
AMD had ruled on price/performance since the original Athlon shipped. It wasn't until Core2 that Intel was competitive again. For anything memory bound AMD still had the lead until Intel shipped Nehalem a few weeks ago and they won't be shipping the MP chips until Q2-09 so they don't matter to me yet.
With two factor authentication and ssl tranporting Citrix secure ica protocol there's plenty of secrecy and authentication The fact that only the display and printer are mapped back to the client (and we use the upd, no native drivers) means there's not really any exposure to client malware. Files only traverse through a user browsing back to the local pc and all files are scanned. We also use the old file explorer view so we don't have exposure to folder content browsing bugs which are the only attack vector I am aware of through the callback mechanism. This is certainly a MUCH smaller attack surface than a full vpn connection where to be functional all sorts of ports need to be open.
I took a different approach, we use Citrix for remote access. We have the Java client installed and have a link to the zero touch client which doesn't need to be installed to run. That way you can get in from all but the most severely locked down internet kiosks. There's no risk to the corporate network and it enables my user to be productive from anywhere. It's also WAY faster than a VPN for most types of work.
Not expensive at all if what you need is IOPS instead of storage (though you would want SLC flash for a server app which is more expensive).

Nah, a 33% overclock usually only needs a 10-20% overvoltage so I would say 150W is the top end for the TDP range.
Ah, but DVI can be either I guess my confusion was with non-HDCP DVI panels supporting full resolution without ICT, they must not be DVI-D.

You can do DVI with baluns, they are just a bit more complicated and hence expensive. I found this one for a bit over $200.

Yes, it's called EXIF and they are talking about a photo with the EXIF stripped.
Film can be identified down to the batch, MUCH more unique than a highly quality controlled part like a CMOS sensor.

It's not open if I can't modify the software and use it on MY device, that's less open than even MS's shared source stuff!

I bought a 29" with multiple component inputs for $350 6 years ago, it's still used with the PS2 and the Dreamcast.
Those aren't LCD TV's, they are CRT's and I know that they long ago fell through $500 I had seen them as low as $250.
