If you are eating at a higher end restaurant and you feel rushed then the staff is most certainly NOT doing its job right and MY tip would definitely reflect that, and I'd probably inform the maitre'de/head waiter. Of course by higher end I'm thinking $100+ per plate. I think one of the big causes of the differences is that many Americans don't cook at home anymore and so the restaurants have to turn over tables in order to serve all their clients whereas in Europe eating out is much more a special occasion thing and so the potential number of patrons is lower.
They were smart but I'm not sure they are top in their field, top earners sure, but the problem with physics from a greed perspective is that many physicists value prestige over earnings and so the perception is that you have to become a modestly paid academic in order to stay a physicist.
That's funny, some of the most well paid people I've known were Phd's in physics. Of course they left the ivory tower and went to work for first the airo/defense industry and then the communications industry. They made significantly more than your average lawyer or doctor (though I'm sure not more then the top earners in those fields) and were extremely intelligent people. But they all received their Phd's back when the shuttle was being designed so I'm not sure what the situation is like today.
It's MUCH easier to pad out two small pieces of executable code to have the same MD5 then it is to inject an exploit into an arbitrary sized chunk and have it match a known hash value. That isn't to say that you couldn't have a small snippet of code embedded in a bunch of junk and have it match the known MD5, but that would be found out pretty quickly and so be of limited value. It's still easier to attack the source repository then it is to inject an exploit into a binary download with a matching MD5 hash that will fool people for very long.
Yeah you're not likely to keep more than a handful of cores busy with games unless they are AI intensive, you have core logic, physics, sound, graphics, I/O, network, and per unit AI as possible threads, most of those won't keep a core busy in the least bit unless you are purposely wasting cycles by say making your physics too realistic you aren't going to keep more than 2-3 cores busy.
Windows will happily keep everything on processor 0 until such time as a scheduling threshold is reached on processor 0 at which time it will move the thread to another processor if available. It will continue to use the same process until all of the processors have a full load. I imagine in the average case of a desktop system this probably IS the most efficient algorithm, but if you have lots of short lived high resource consuming threads it's probably not due to all the state copying going on. Also in Windows 2003 the kernel is aware of memory locality and so will try to keep processes on the processor closest to their largest pool of memory in a NUMA system. Also the reason that affinity requests aren't hard is that otherwise it would have to throw an error if that processor wasn't available either due to hardware issues or due to the process attributes being set so that it can't see that processor.
There are very significant cultural differences from region to region in the USA, the fact that you don't understand this makes you as ignorant as the typical American tourist abroad. In fact within a two hour drive of my house I can think of 4 distinct cultural areas, a large urban/exurban center, rural midwestern farmland, the Amish, and rural Appalachia. Throughout those areas you find very different cultural, linguistic, dietary, and religious practices.
It's not that the devices themselves are a threat per se, it's that the complex xray signature of an electronics device with a battery makes it difficult to interpret what you are seeing when there are things above and below them. Therefore they have you remove them to get a cleaner picture of both your luggage and the devices. I'm surprised this isn't national policy considering that laptops are already singled out to the point of them having to be out of any type of satchel.
Do you really believe that "muslims" think killing people is OK?
Not only does Islam say it is ok to kill, it is required. Of course these Jehadists should not be first killing brothers of the book but rather the Hindus and Buddhists first as their sins against Allah are much greater. But hey since when has religious fundamentalism actually been about reading and understanding the writings that are at the foundation of your religion =)
Comcast does it to keep its subscribers from suffering the heartaches of 'spam, viruses, security attacks, network congestion, and other risks and degradations of service' and to 'deliver the best possible Internet experience to all of its customers.'"
I would call throttling the hell out of my connection to be a degradation of my service so obviously they aren't supplying the best possible experience to ALL of their customer, possibly most but certainly not all.
The question I have is WTF is the FBI doing talking to the FISC? The FBI is supposed to be tasked with DOMESTIC law enforcement, they are not to be doing international foreign intelligence investigations just as the CIA is not to be doing domestic spying. The only reason I can think of is they had an ongoing criminal investigation going and somehow determined that their target might be linked to terrorism and so they asked for the FISA warrant, but that's an awfully slippery slope if they try to use that wiretap information in a domestic criminal case (courts have ruled that incidental information gleaned from a FISA wiretap are admissible but that the primary purpose of the wiretap must be foreign intelligence information gathering).
Yeah and you can get a blade with 2x5345's and 2GB of ram for about half what a QS21 costs. As far as power specs I can't find a single published tech spec or red paper listing the power draw for the QS21 but since you can fit 14 of them in an H class chassis they can't draw a ton more power than the Xeon based blades but I can't tell if they draw less.
Huh? On my ipod classic (5GB) the wheel is the volume control unless you are in a mode other than song playing. I'd call that a physical volume controll =)
Requiring all members of Congress to be present for the entire reading would be a bit ungainly, even in the time of the founders other matters of state or travel might have precluded members from being present. However I DO like the idea of requiring members be present during the reading in order to vote on the measure, perhaps give bio-breaks every 4 hours to make it workable.
Encryption wouldn't have helped ANYTHING here. The recipient was in his address book which means if he had been using most email crypto packages so would the recipients public key. All the technology in the world isn't going to defend against a PEBKAC error.
Actually the GBC is almost as tough as the classic. It's a good thing too because my wife has a sewing machine where the computer control for advanced functions is a GBC. It was about 1/10th the cost of the next cheapest computer controlled sewing machine and could do quite a few thing that only the midpriced and higher models with dedicated computers could do. I figure if hers ever dies there will basically always be one available on ebay since Nintendo sold about a bajillion of them.

Huh? The experience with Vista is often the same, and with the x64 version there often isn't a beta driver available.

My company just got a ton of BB 8820's with WiFi, I wonder if our unlimited data plan is going to include use of the hotspots now...

In fact the fakeraid driver for 6 SATA cards is a good way to keep some of those cores busy =)

Uh, doesn't basically every TLS enabled mail server support SSL/TLS on a port other than 25?

The defense budget without the two wars is expected to top three quarters of a trillion dollars this fiscal year.
More specifically for a large organization: How do I implement key recovery in a secure and manageable way.
It's called a toll road, while some governments run them by themselves many are sold to private interests.
Huh? On my ipod classic (5GB) the wheel is the volume control unless you are in a mode other than song playing. I'd call that a physical volume controll =)
Yeah that's why I agreed to buy it even though we were newlyweds with very little spare money =)
No but I bet it was a multimillion dollar loss for the insiders that were planning to flush options before the announcement =)
