On the download page of "Dungeon Master Java" Alandale writes that the code is a big sloppy mess and it is badly designed. I would like to know what are the biggest design mistakes he made writing the game, and how would he designed it today?
Maybe he is reading Slashdot and can reply to my questions.
Actually the supercomputer is not a weather simulator at all. The "weather simulator" came from wrong translation from Japanese by some American reporter. In direct translation from Japanese the computer name is "Tsunami Simulator", and tsunami second meaning in Japanese is atomic bomb. So there we are. It is simply an "A Bomb" simulator.
MS will provide brand new Micro$oft keyboards in Europe with Euro sign key in the place of Delete key. That will finally make typing European currency an easy task, helping the European economy, and also give new meaning to the three-finger salute: Control-All-Euro
Apparently you are wrong. The kilogram originated in the reforms of the French Revolution. Conceptually, it was to be the mass of a cubic decimeter of water at water's maximum density. It was originally called a grave, but the name was changed to kilogram in 1795.
While still maintaining the profit, AMD is able to sell Athlons chipper than Intel their Pentium 4s, because their CPUs use smaller Dies. Athlon XP is 84 mm2, while Pentium 4 Northwood Core is 146 mm2 in size, that is almost twice as large. Both processors are comparably fast.
This is called winning.
You can also read about the upcoming CPUs, and you will see who is loosing.
Heh, if they weren't losing, you wouldn't have found it for $69.00...
Better efficiency in terms of the lover costs of production is called winning not losing.
Do you remember the Windows calculator joke

One could compute what was the difference between Windows 3.01 and Windows 3.0 by subtracting 3.01-3.0 on the calculator from Windows3.1. The result shown was 0 instead of 0.01! If you still have the old Win3.1 around, you can check it for yourself. I had a very good laugh back then.
The review is incomplete, and lacks the most important detail:
Where is the screenshot of BSOD? Although it shows very often, it is hard to capture because it is the most protected Microsoft technology.
Maybe numerous Earth probes infected Venus' atmosphere with life.
It was the other way around; the Earth was contaminated with life from other planets.
Everybody knows, that women are from Venus.
Dr. John Gray proved that long time ago:
Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus
The main difference between you and the researchers is that you did not get a $500 000 government grant. The money is the real outcome of the experiment.
I am surprised nobody at Slashdot noticed that. Maybe "true" scientists do not read Slashdot.;-)
You can look in the yellow pages of any big city in the category Jewelers-Manufacturers. Personally I doubt that the big guys will be willing to deal with you, unless you are interested in buying some large quantities. I think the profit on a single piece is too small for them to bother, and it is greater risk to let everybody in, cause they have really a lot of gold at the workshops. I used to turn 0.5 kg of gold into jewelry every day. It is a very hard work.
If you went shopping for (say) a wedding ring, and some guy offered you a perfectly beautiful ring for 1/3 what they were selling elsewhere, what's the first thing you would do ? Run off and have it appraised, because YOU would be sitting there wondering what was wrong with it.
I used to be a jeweler. It is a common practice that a store sells to a customer for three to then time the price of what the jewelers charge to the store. So the three-fold difference of price for the similar item can be seen, and it is perfectly normal.
When I was making a purchase decision concerning Windows 2000, I was also taking under consideration the license agreement, and future bug fixes. Microsoft is under legal obligation to support the product, to allow me to download the patches, and service packs for the product for which I paid, without forcing me to do, or not to do some other things, which were not discussed in the original license agreement.
They are really becoming a pain in the ars not only for their competition, but now also for their customers, which is stupid. Such abuse of power, and trust (or rather what was left of it) by Microsoft will anger, and turn a lot of users away. There are reasonable alternatives to most of MS products on the market right now, and they are getting better, and more attractive every day.

Ever heard of Real-Time Linux ?
Or about Hard Real-Time Linux ?

Take two pounds of crap.
Add one pinch of the "Magic Spice".
Stir well.
Voila! You made yourself delicious chocolate cake.
Guten appetit!

But the question is would it survive an atomic blast?
Electromagnetic field produced by nuclear weapons can damage electronic equipment in a fraction of a second.

So,in other words when it comes to comparing threads, size does matter.
Because you can mail to yourself an open envelope, and stuff it later with anything just when needed.
If only someone could make reversed fonts.

The Russians have also been using pig liver cells to treat incurable, and otherwise fatal hepatitis and liver cancer cases, successfully.
Do you have any references to this topic?
I would like to read more about it.
Please mod the parent up. While it is not syntactically correct it is funny, and so truth.
I wish I had some moderation points now.
Quick, somebody destroy it, and the chip, and save the mankind.
