Dude.....C is practically ASM. C is *not* a "high level" language according to most theoretical professors. (c.f. Yale's Stan Eisenstat, Arvind Krishnamurthy, Zhong Shao, Richard Yang, Columbia's Belhauser, Havard's Smith...) C _is_ readable asm code......
have you ever taken a compilers course?
having written a compiler for a toy language (tiger) [google for princeton professor appel's "tiger" language and his collaboration with z. shao, who implemented the heap-activation in SML-NJ....] i can assure you, it is nowhere NEAR as easy as you'd think.

You don't know very much about peering agreements, do you? If one cox user was sharing a file that many other cox users wanted, I can ASSURE you that cox would be VERY happy.
The RIAA screwed up bigtime. You just towed the party line "Most people actually want to PAY for their music. They steal it out of convenience." The RIAA's response? "No, they steal it because they're cheap bastards." Oh, wait...except for the APPLE MUSIC STORE, which beat their one _month_ expectations in one _week_.
Oh, poo, it appears that the guilty-until-proven-innocent idea the RIAA was operating under was just demonstrated to be wrong, at least among macintosh users. (Granted its a population subset, but the RIAA has 0 data to the contrary....) But the apple music store makes those nice record labels obsolete minus their functions "discovering" (pronounced: "manufacturing" c.f. avril lavigne) artists and "producing" songs. (long live daniel beddingfield....)
Go buy a mac. Apple _is_ fighting for your digital rights.
Reuters - Apple Computer Corp (APPL) has announced in a smashing pre-lunch event at its flashy new store in SOHO that the upcoming announcement will focus on the debut of its new pseudo-sentient home robot, capable of interfacing via bluetooth with home devices such as cell phones, bluetooth enabled computers, and the next generation of home appliances.
The product is scheduled to launch with the name "iRobot....."
Now reads "Due to the people at slashdot.org linking to this site without asking the owners or the hosters, asciipr0n.com is offline until further notice. Maybe you guys should start mirroring the sites you link to..."
Ouch!
And the link from the article just reads "Slashdot Sucks"
Thats what i get for reading articles i guess.
If you click on the 'topics' link on the left, you'll see that slashdot has one icon for Microsoft (the borg) and another for Windows (this shitty one.) If you click on the Windows icon, you'll find that this is the only story ever posted with it. So we can probably rule out Bill using his mind control ray to control Taco's mind, and chalk it up to the usual slashdot incompetance.
If you click in your little address bar and type "www.m-w.com" and then in the box next to "dictionary" you type "incompetance" and then click "Look it up", you'll note that "incompetance" doesnt exist as a word.
So we can probably rule out Bill using his mind control ray to control your mind, and chalk it up to the usual slashdot unjustified self-righteousness./sarcasm
By "state organisation that ensures competition is fair" i believe you're looking for "regulating board" [pseudo-akin to FCC "regulation" of spectrum?]
Has everyone forgotten about Harmony Project? Developers working on a LGPL'd version of Qt.....[replacement for Qt, that is]. The whole point is to make the whole TrollTech/BSD license thru the Qt foundation if TrollTech discontinues/etc/etc issue a NON issue. Anyone bitching about Qt's license has no reason not to be helping Harmony...

All hashing algorithms can be defeated if you know the algorithm....given precisely placed bits, it is not impossible to have two files with the same hash.
No its not PRACTICAL...but maybe they've got some brute force per song?
MD5 takes the content of a file and forms a number from it in such a way that:
it is not possible to tell the contents of the original file just by looking at the hash value and
it is not reasonably practicable to generate a file that will give a particular hash.
as an aside...most people are too lazy to check md5's anyway.....
I dont need the karma. I'm already capped. People already did complain. They already got modded down. Browse at -1, you might see your own posts. IFF these 10 fonts are "excellent" they could substantially end the "strongly percieved need" for some "high quality open fonts" -- words which seem to get tossed around slashdot quite a bit.
Please save the "ohh but its only 10 fonts" comments.
The microsoft world does very well with ARIAL, COURIER, and TIMES NEW ROMAN. (Actually, most of the personal computing world does fairly well with these fonts)
I used CHICAGO, TIMES and BOOKMAN exclusively for years on a Mac LCII.
The crux of the issue is that these should be high quality fonts. THAT is a big deal. Kerning is a huge pain. "ae" vs "lk" vs "ld" vs "dl" vs "kl" -- spacing changes more than you think. Amen, hallelujah...now lets just see how they look.

Troll POSTS are one thing.....
troll STORIES? jheez

Likewise, i would suspect the chinese military will soon be developing as many ways as possible to jam local wireless networks.

Can we get that in libraries of congress per ipod please? hehehe....
Wow...i have to admit, I didn't believe this post's original text until i saw it change. =(
Actually, they didn't shorten it to SML because that is Standard ML.
SML/NJ *cringe*
Disclaimer: I took a compilers course with Zhong Shao, who together with Appel of Princeton, made ML into a useable language. CURSE THEM BOTH.
Sadly enough, I was referring to Isaac Asimov's "I, Robot..."
