Verified Exec verifies a cryptographic hash before allowing execution of binaries and scripts. This can be used to prevent a system from running binaries or scripts which have been illegally modified or installed. In addition, Verified Exec can also be used to limit the use of script interpreters to authorized scripts only and disallow interactive use.
I've been looking for something like this for Linux but I haven't found anything.. Anyone know if it is possible?
Heron seems to be aiming at the same market as the D programming language, but IMHO Heron is too much C++-like with all its ugliness.
D is a lot more like Java/C#, but compiled to native code and is low-level enough for it to be used for things like where only C and C++ are feasable now (low-level libraries, toolkits, even kernel drivers).. And besides, there is already a (beta) D Frontend for GCC.
With all the positive attention that D has had recently I find it unlikely that Heron will be chosen over D by anyone, but only time will tell... And the competition is good for both languages.:)

But that doesn't have anything to do with homosexuality. Homosexuals in general are much more promiscous than heterosexuals, and the homosexual population is much smaller than the heterosexual population. The problem also isn't promiscuity, the problem is lack of protection.
Have they got ridden of that weird custom GUI-toolkit in 2.0 yet? Real native look and feel (not just look) is my major #1 wish for OOo. Especially on OS X it feels extremly alien right now..
Actually, I think the biggest reason is the cost of Apple hardware. Sure, a PC with hardware comparable to a PowerMac will cost about as much, but why the hell are the extras so %"&%# expensive? Configure your PowerMac at Applestore and you'll notice that adding 512 MB of RAM will add the price of like 2 GB PC3200 RAM from a retail store.. You'll get a 2x400 GB SATA-disks for just the price-difference of 80 and 2x200 GB disk at Applestore. The Mac-version of graphicscards cost 50% more than the same card for the PC, and that is with the TV-output removed... And so on... Annoys me to hell, and I'm a Mac-lover...
When recommending what Mac to buy I say "Get a DP 1.8 with 80 GB disk, 256 MB RAM and without the superdrive. Then you throw away or sell the disk and the RAM and get 4x512 GB RAM, 2x200 GB SATA-disks and a cheap 12x DVD+-RW from some store at Pricerunner".. It really shouldn't be like that.. Stupid stupid Apple...:P
It's because people still associate Mac with MacOS = 9. You know, the non-multitasking OS without dynamic memory allocation which totally froze when an app crashed so you had to reboot the whole computer.. That, and that it has so few games.. But the most important reason is that their friends also hate it, but they have no idea why, only that their friends' friends also hate it. And that they are expensive compared to PCs...
I LOVE (!!) MacOS X, but I can't stand the classic OS.. I defend OS X all the time! Friends and co-workers often say "why the hell did you buy a Mac?!". Then when I ask them what they know about Macs they say "well, I haven't used one since school, but..."..:P
You can change mouse cursors with Mighty Mouse. It costs $10 which I think is silly (stuff like this should really be part of the base OS), but it works great.
This guy is a psycho! Well, maybe not psycho but definetly very authistic... He is downloading music 24/7 because we will all die from a nuclear bomb soon, and he doesn't even allow his children to put some of the songs on their ipod. And he seem dead serious about it.
I've had VoIP at home for more than a year here in Sweden. I have a small box sitting between my DSL-modem and my normal phone. Calls to other persons within my ISPs network are completly free. Calls to other VoIP-providers are extremly cheap. Calls to legacy phones are cheaper than with any legacy phonecompany.
This is what the sky looked like for a few minutes in Sweden yesterday: Norrsken
Personally I missed it, but I've seen the phenomenon 100s of times before because I'm initially from the middle/north parts of Sweden. It's really beautiful and surrealistic when it's constantly moving and morphing like an Amiga-demo plasma-effect in the sky.;)
MySQL has it place, but he said "mission critical level" and the links I posted has good enough explanations why that isn't MySQL's place. No need to duplicate it here. MySQL is fast and advanced enough for blogs and similar simple things where data integrity doesn't matter that much...
The fact of the matter is that on built in network transparency, KDE has no equal.
Yes, the Amiga. Just put the file "ftp.device" in DEVS:, mount FTP: and every single application can now use say ftp://ftp.sunet.se/ as if it was a local disk. ftp.device was written in the early 90s but the backend technology was there in 1986...

Can they be cheaper than allofmp3.com at $0.01 per MB?

In Korea, China is blocking Google, in Japan!
In Korea, E-commerce Single Sign-On is for the elderly.
You mean like:
In Korea, old people are for the elderly?
That's low?

Lots of Nextboxen coming up!
Maybe you should have a look at Parrot? The CVS includes a lot of working and non-working language-implementations which you could have a look at..
I also recommend you to have a look at Lua which is a minimalistic yet beautiful language..

MySQL - The best. Somehow I know of no company willing to deploy this at a mission critical level.
