I'm unhappy about the wait() call because it doesn't lend itself to fully async coding - if you've got nothing to do in that context, you're stuck blocking the thread when it could be doing other things. So now you have to waste CPU on context switches and waste RAM on state for a new thread.
So? Yuo can spend a little bit of cpu time and run more threads or, since the load on the DB is likely to be the bottleneck, get more boxes. Hardware is cheap. Debug time is not, and async programming is harder than sync programming.
The intent is to find candidates that actually like science and progress and aren't going to pander to the throwbacks that want to abandon science whenever it makes them question their beliefs.
Einstein, Hubble, Hawking... proto-scientists believed in an inflationary universe, so why shouldn't we?
I know it's your short story, but these guys are all for a better story. Relativity is the best we've got at the moment. Same with Evolution. Saying 'God did it' is a cop out and that's why it's maddening.
It's true, innovation takes a fair amount of software development (if that's what you're building). If you're doing accounting systems for state governments, your revenue will grow more slowly, unless you add a new state or something.
Of course, out in the real world, there's more than IT - corning has been growing fairly fast over the past 5 years, and they seem to have done it with carbon filters.
It's quite nasty and poorly implemented even for Microsoft standards.
My understanding is that most of this is on the cable companies - MS would like to implement something well, but cable doesn't care if it happens or not. This makes getting commitments rather hard.

Yes, exactly like them. The DOD is not a corp, but their position was that they were invading.

Neither can an official spokesman, unless he surveys every member of the organization and confirms that each agrees with the statement.
Come off it - all you really need is the position of the people running things. They decide what the coporation does, after all.
it's a question of torque more than force
What's torque, again?
I think the main appeal might be women getting back at chikans. Not really a wide target market outside of japan.
For instance, some guy from Kenya is probably darker than some guy from Egypt who lives in London, right?
Believe in Cthulhu, and he'll bite off your face and suck out your brains first. What's a religion without nasty threats?
FTFY.
The second highest was school employees, alcohol.
Well, duh - of course teachers drink. They have to put up with little shits like I was all day long. Next you'll tell me that nurses smoke.
They are using G3MX chips as a sort of multiplexer and connecting it to the CPU though a couple of lanes with high-speed signaling.
So it's the RDRAM architechture in reverse?

Who'd they buy it from? Aside from porn, nobody's willing to sell unprotected HD content.
Since the same time that banknotes are copyright protected.
So who holds that copyright? Not the government, since they're not allowed.
If the license on the work says that you can only print it once and you print it twice then, yes, it is copyright infringement.
Since when is a coupon copyrightable?
Give it a few years. I guarantee you that the guy's still gay.
I dunno, he could be bi.
Or if we'd built additional nuke plants in other places, like somewhere in Washington, michigan, and NY. Coal really sin't high on my list of options.
What's your problem with the 9th circuit? They aren't particular whack-jobby, they just happen to have a lot of traffic.
Exponential growth for a business isn't even possible
Sure it is. 2% growth is exponential.
However, it won't be nearly as fast as the box I've specced, so I'll sit around and wait.
Get out of town...

So the component video decoder I have next to me doesn't exist?

Yeah, but can you hook me up with a screaming deal on a dual dual athlon with 8G ram? That's my next box.
No, it's not like that. It possessive is spelled its - English has its own funny way.
I'm spending the cash on house buying instead.
