Duh it did self regulate madoff. It seperated all those greedy fools from their money. Madoff in jail, trust me no ones going to be investing with him any more
I've been to KL a few times (my wife is Malay) and think that most power plants/infrastructure must be relatively new in KL, and Malaysia in general, compared to Cherry Hill, NJ. The US, in general, has been relying on outdated infrastructure.
That being said, I don't think that an Orang Utan would have a preference either way.
I agree with your comment. My wife is a legal immigrant and we are against illegal immigration. It seriously feels like a kick in the nuts every time, we hear that illegals should be allowed to stay/given amnesty.
I say kick 'em all out, get a sane work program going and make them all re-apply to come back.
I keep telling people that go off into death-panel hysterics. Look, we already HAVE death panels, except that they're private. Personally, I'd rather have public non-profit death panels than private for-profit ones.
I think that it's pretty unfair for anyone to expect no limits on health insurance. I mean what would YOU decide if you were being given the decision to spend 1M to give someone an extras 30 days but they're going to die anyway, or you can spend the 1M and actually SAVE lives.
Yeah, I always enjoyed authors who put effort into creating/detailing their own universe, I really enjoy Dune for the same reason. I'd also like to add the Foundation Series/LoR/Chronicles of Narnia.
I also supremely enjoyed the Red/Blue/Green Mars series.
yeah no kidding, I come from the computer stone age as well. I was 8 when I got my TI-994A, got the first IBM AT, built a i386 clone with my dad (An EE). Saved up at my first job and purchased for $2,500 a screaming i486DX50 with 16MB of RAM and a 400MB hard drive! It was my freshman year in college when the first 1GB drives came out.
It gives me chub that I can build a 64b, VT, multicore procs, GB's of RAM and 1TB hard drives for less than that 486 proc cost me. Kids are spoiled these days.
I stuck my head back into to the upgrade hardware stream and for me the right thing was a decent MB with no fans(Heat pipes), an integrated ATI GPU, an AMD triple core proc, 4GB's of RAM and a 1TB HD. Also, it needed to have at least 3 PCI slots for the PVR cards that I have. More than 2 PCI slots is becoming rare.
My point was that it took me much longer than it should have, to have to update myself on what tech was current. What parts work together. What parts fit in the slots, but didn't work to well together.
This. I met Crazy J or whatever at a promo for a local Radio Station back in the 90's when I was in college. What a egotistical, misogynistic, Grade A, A-hole.
I still have my 486 case, with the turbo button. The backside of the button has a dense set of jumpers that with a little (a lot) of dicking around you could make it say 00-99 for each speed (button on/off).
My company was seriously considering FAST it was by far the best performing solution at the time. Then MS bought them, and since we run on a Linux (RHEL5) platform, we ended up going with a Lucene/Solr solution. a bit slower, but we saw the writing on the wall for FAST when they were purchased.
Does it work with wives as well? My wife is Malaysian, and she just gets frustrated and switches to english. So far, the main phrase I know how to say is "The cat goes Meow" in Malay
99.99 of sysadmin'ing comes from experience, which young ones do not have, or are in the process of learning (90% of the time due to necessity, being the low person on the totem). the experienced ones know enough to know that experience isn't cheap.
I agree completely. My companies experience with outsourcing has mostly been disappointing. The in house dev's spend a disproportionate amount of time cleaning up code that has been handed off to us. much of it is due to poor coding
* copy and paste coding techniques by the offshore teams * not reading/looking at the code and using the API's that we've already provided * re-inventing the wheel... poorly
As a result, we have tended to tended to migrate the offshore teams to extremely repetitive QA tasks. UI validation, etc etc. Which after about 3 years they finally seem to have a handle on.
Also the GP doesn't seem to realize that the Cost of Living is 20x higher in the states and that a salary of 75K in places like New York is barely enough to support a family.
My wife is Malay, my father in law is a high level banker for CIMB, and I've spent a good deal of time in K.L. and while the cost of living is definitely lower, after seeing how even the above avg person there lives, I'd rather live in the states *any day*
From the more and more frequent article mentioning Quantum Mechanics that humanity is taking the first few steps in taking QM from mostly theoretical to applied on an industrial scale. That will be an exciting era indeed.
where they demoed this and other VM technologies. I think that RH has some really interesting VM Management stuff in the pipeline. The nice thing about SPICE is your browser is the client.
If some one doubts the credibility of science, I would suggest to them, that they not use the products of science. I mean if they don't believe in the general accuracy of science, then they can do without things like modern medicine, cars, computers and modern agriculture etc etc. I mean if science is wrong to them, shouldn't they be living off the land?
As an aside, I blame the the flat earthers, the creationists for getting us into this position. Because of their 100% belief in their positions, in order to win arguements scientists had to go from:
Hey we *know* they're wrong, but here are some of our hypothesis that make more sense.
to
Hey we know they're wrong, but we've narrowed down what's right to these couple of theories.
to
Hey we know they're wrong, but we know that this theory is 100% right.
Now if that theory turns out to be wrong, or tweaked in anyway, it puts scientists in a real bad light.
It's more polarization. Just like politics has become steadily more polarized, science will as well, thanks to asshats that refuse to understand what it's really about.
In dunno about that. In every house/apartment I've ever lived in the upside-down plugs were connected to a wall switch. I was told by an inspector/electrician that it's done that way so it's easy to locate which outlet is controlled by the wall switch.
I used to work for a datacenter and a hosting company, let me tell you linux is not 100% secure, neither is Windows. I believe that linux is more secure out of the box. but both can be as secure or insecure as the system admin running the box.
With linux, the fastest way I've found to make it a cesspool of virus's, rootkits and worms is to install cPanel on it.

Also, the correct decision is NOT spend the 1M twice and call it a day.

I used to work for a freight company, sometimes that opening scene from Ace Ventura is not far off.
I could be wrong, but I'm under the impression that the gov loves Virtuozzo.

Easy fix: Don't make right turns
I can see the commercials now
I want my computer more gay...
Windows 7 was my idea!
I'm a Linux fan, but there's a first. A linux user complaining that he needs to tweak the OS to get the most out of it!
Here's a tip, ALL OS's require tweaking to get the most out of them.
