The best IDE I've used is QtCreator, just because it is simple, the UI is clean and it does not get into your way. Lets use the points on this article to add it to the comparsion:
- speed: much faster/lean than Eclipse, netbeans and Visual Studio.
- usability: second place, have a nice debug view, but nothing as flexible as Eclipse perpective.
- overwhelming: first, as I've said, have lots of features that do not make the UI big/fat/dirty.
- customizability: last. You basicaly don't, just some panels you can change/add. But this is actually part of it's beauty: keeping the UI clean.
- code: while it supports basically C/C++, Qt Crerator is one really good IDE. In one project, made in C++/Boost, that we used VS to build, we had to use QtCreator, as VS could not follow functions/symbols correctly, while QtCreator did without any delay. Plugin support is there, but you will only find a few like doxygen. But I would put it in second, as perspectives and custom-builds (like the Flex Builder IDE) makes Eclipse an all-in-all language and coding support.
QtCreator is a really decent IDE, that sadly is not known by most people, but if you are developing a project in C/C++, I recommend you give it a try, you could end up being in love with it;)
"the appeals court said an encryption key is no different than a physical key and exists separately from a person's will"
Well, at least here in Brazil, you have the right to do not give your keys to the police, but if they have a warrant, they can kick down your door.
So, they could stole my encryptation keys, but not force me to give it to them.
"but pen&paper is a simple solution and at the moment the best."
So you do not know how thing "worked" when Brazil used paper voting.
If not perfect, the electronic voting is AGES better than what we had before.
I'm still waiting for those guys who talk about innovation to come with new and better forms, supporting sliders, rich text edit, validation masks and other thing that would us use a lot less Javascript in pages and focus on the real job.:-(
I would like if linux had a directX implementation that does not need wine actualy.
I mean, if you could just create an API-compatible with directX, but without having to mess with reverse-engineering windows code and native for unix.
Something like SDL, but that had all (or most) of directX functions. Is this feasible or I'm way out of line here?
Wine today runs fine, but as desktop linux visuals become better with nice themes, wine becomes more and more an alien in your computer.
Is this any plan to make it more native in the look & feel?
A pre-requisite for field a patent here, besides not being commons sense as US allows, is to have MADE a device that works and implement the patented method. You can't patent ideas here.
I do not know how a country allow such a thing, exepts... that they want to enforce those patents in the rest of the world to make money.
Sad, really.:-(
Only if they are talking about Japan-only.
Here in brazil it's way too much expensive and DVDs are really becoming popular now with prices dropping and piracy levels lowering. I don't think people that pay R$200 (less than 120 US dollars) can pay R$ 3500 (more than 2000 dollars) for the player. The media price is like 20 for DVD and 100+ for DB.
I think the more languages you know (don't need to be deeply) the better.
Let's see, I've started with (Turbo) Pascal in engineering university, tried a bit of Turbo Pascal for Windows (very, very, very bad one), went to LamdaMOO, Javascript, PHP, then gave up into engineering and changed to computer science, learned C, C++ and a bit of Java.
I can't really say any of those was not useful in a manner or other to me, even the ones I hate, like Java:)
When I see news like that I think: I'm glad I live in Brazil, even with all it's problems.
What is happening with america? I know it was never that land of freedom movies talk about, but sudennly it appears people are leting all the fears take upon their brains much like in the the wall (pink floyd) videoclip.
The news for me is that the 3G network isn't already all over United States.
Here in there city I live (Porto Alegre) in Brazil there is already a 3G network on 800Mhz and another in 1.2Ghz is expected to start this year, so I was expecting US would be already much more advanced.
This and the e-voting makes me wonder if those news about US being beaten technology by other countries isn't only for Japan/Asia/Europe, seems like in many areas even in-development countries are starting to be better.
I remember my schoolbook had some pictures of him.
I've never thought less or bad about him because there where draws in the book or elsewhere.
I don't even know why it's forbidden to show images of him, wasn't him the one that said images from God where bad? Or did he listed himself in the list of forbidden to draw people?
Yes it is.
The case is that when you read those advertising saying the copying copyrighted material you are just looking for a part of the law, not it's full glorty:)
You can have more details in the following links (portuguese): http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pirataria_moderna
Not even buying pirated material is a crime in brazil, but selling one is. So if you just give way, share with your friends or even put it into the web, it's not crime.
Don't forget even president Lula watched a pirated version of Tropa de Elite in his presidencial airplane:)
And as a latin country produces a *lot* of funny and wrong laws:)
Gladly in Brazil there is not this quality restriction, we are free to share (without any money involved) from user to user.
But people selling those can go to jail (even that I bet no one so far ever did).
It's hard to be proud of your code if it's mixed with old one.
I would say yes if I could start a project from zero and build it, but when your mission is to maintain old code fixing bugs while developing new features over it, there is little you can do to make it beautiful and clean:-P
>The only character encoding permitted in HTML 5 is UTF-8.
This one made me Laught Out Loud! C'mon! UTF-8 isn't even near of holding all necessary characters most languages needs! Even for a latin one like Brazilian Portuguese it have some issues, I can't even imagine Chinese:)
I like the idea of modules being something like PHP's include on client side. But all the rest really is very poor ideas with exception of making html simpler that only seems to happen in his version attribute for html tag.
He seems to forget that html 5 is meatn to be retro-compatible with html 4.
If newer and better tags arise, the old ones (someone still uses blink?) will vanish with the time, thinking into changing html all of a sudden and break compatibility is just a drem, even if a good one.
I really started dislyking Orkut a while ago (I am brazilian, insert jokes/trolling about it here), but the interface redesign and better photo, video and community tools just made it very good.
But I don't see how any of those community sites could be the next thing or change the internet. They are just what ICQ was once, and before what email was, a way for people to find each other and communicate. I don't see how a clear winner will emerge. Probally the market will be segmented as it is now and people will not be afraid to change from one to another social network. A system that could interact with multiple social networks, as social stream google is studying seems to me a much more interesting horse to bet int.
Don't buy from any american company

Brazil already adds 20%~25% of ethanol in gas, but now the target is diesel. Also, manofacturers are creating cars that run with both gas or ethanol.
As far as I know, europe is using more and more diesel for cars, so it's a bit different market, because it's easier to mix things in gas.
Linux can't even change (very well, yes I know there is ntfs3g) files with windows NT FileSystem.
Those guys should care about those kind of things instead of virtualization IMHO:-P
Petrobras (brazilian oil company) is researching a *lot* of seeds and already does create diesel from them. There is a lwa that states that next year brazilian diesel will have to use a small percentage of bio-diesel, so this isn't a "what if", but a growing market reality in Brazil.
You can get more info on Petrobras site: http://www2.petrobras.com.br/portal/frame.asp?pagina=/minisite/bioenergia/terra/index.asp&lang=pt&area=bioenergia (portuguese). There is even a list of used plants.
A similar example here in south america is getting bio-diesel from Mamona (castor oil plant - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Castor_oil_plant), that is also poison if eaten and very strong to plagues and easy to grown.
