a finding researchers hope will provide clues on how to trick other parts of the vital organ to repair themselves after injuries caused by strokes or head traumas

I thought I would try out a few results on my machine, and got some interesting results. I would encourage other people to do the same. I have used his java code, unmodified, save for a System.out.println the time taken.
My computer is a 900MHz Athlon, 256Mb RAM, running WinXP. Using J2SDK 1.4.1_01.
javac -g:none -O *.java
java -server almabench
Took a total of 107555ms
jview almabench
Took a total of 51073ms
Compare this with 76 seconds on his 2.8 GHz machine. JView (that's Microsoft's VM) was able to run in 51 seconds.
The two things of note:
My results are significantly faster than his.
Jview ran at twice the pace of Sun's latest offering. Euch.
Unfortunatly I have no c compiler on this machine to run them, that would be really interesting.
I remember being naked at the age of threeish in a paddling pool. Only, I remembered seeing myself naked. Hah, out of body experience, anyone? All it was was a photo in the album of me running around starkers. Most of my early memories (all?) derive from photos.
The worst they can do is what ever they want to do, if they get root access. Say it like it is. An attacker can execute arbitrary code, get complete control over the machine. Security issues shouldn't be sugar coated like that.
Oh, wait, Bill doesn't want to support Windows on those chips
If you're going to rant, at least do it correctly. Windows NT used to run on many different architectures, but people only bought the x86 version. Windows CE does run on many architectures.
Just post a link to one of those suckers on/. we'll see who won't die in a minute!!
And from the article:
The total I/O throughput capacity of the current z900 mainframes is no less than 24GB (that's bytes, not bits) per second. I have not personally had the opportunity to benchmark the performance on these latest systems, but while theoretical numbers can sometimes be misleading, I wouldn't be at all surprised to see a z900 performing as many as 100,000 I/O operations per second.
See, we go and label the north pole of a magnet that pole which points to the northern pole of the globe. The inveitable consequence of this is of course that the north pole is a magnetic south pole.
Many thousands of years of calling the pole at the north of the globe a north pole, and it has had enough, and migrating south, where it belongs.
Maintainability: If a user needs a feature (say, the ability to use the new Euro currency symbol, or the inverted date-parsing of 23/01/2002)
ehm, I think you will find that it is a lot stranger to have the month first, and that requires explicit locale support. The US is the only country to have their dates backwards.
Medal of Honor, Allied Assualt: Straight after installation, I run the program and it freezes, with the console message stuck at "Recursive error after loading font Verdana". Irritating indeed!
I see. Curious. I never tried it with anything other than local drives. My guess is that being a filesystem level thing, it only works when there is a local filesystem. Is mapping a network drive/ using the subst command inadequate?

Like this?
Who in their right mind administrates a server using VNC? It makes no sense.
It's much faster at making me money :-)

That's NZST, dontchya know.
they do. WHen doing java development, it's much easier to simply use the / character on all platforms, as it works on windows and on unix.

That's right. Pity the article is about Linux.
I use Mozilla on windows.

Immovable object, irresistable force, anyone?
There's an off by one error there. It was in fact 2 days later (Friday, Saturday, Sunday).
Bible SP 1 is expected to have this issue resolved.

The karma in question can be found here.
I do agree with you though. I had many years getting pissed at that one, until someone else pointed that out to me.

shouldn't that be +5 insightful?
Tanzania was suveyed, but not New Zealand... I'm feeling a little left out here... I mean, throw us a bone already.
Oh, I didn't realise it was that simple.
For you, the correct spelling of the word is practise. You used it as an imperative, indicating it was a verb.

Methinks you forgot that an aussie dollar is worth a little less than a $US...
