If you stretch a rope between your hands I will need to apply only very little force onto the middle of the rope to force your hands together.
This 1 meter band, attached to the earth on one side and a big chunk of something high enough up in orbit to stretch the band, will have to withstand enormous tropical storms that will work to pull that chunk of something down.
I'm not saying it can't work. I'm just saying that if it does, it is amazing.
I guess this isn't used to prevent Hotmail users from receiving Spam. It is to prevent spammers from signing up for Hotmail accounts to use against the rest of us.
Do you know why Hotmail is called Hotmail btw? HoTMaiL.:)
If you want to know if a statement is ANSI/ISO compliant, use the Mimer SQL Validator. It lets you validate against SQL-92, SQL:1999 and SQL:200x (Draft).
How will this change affect Mozilla, the Sun JVM and OpenOffice, for instance.
While it probably is generally true that it will take some time for most applications to start using the new threading model some larger applications could support it fairly soon.
Can we expect these applications to be adapted to the new threading model some time soon, and how will it affect performance?
OK, so maybe you know this already but you are also using the reserved word table. So you actually have two errors in there.
But fear not. If you want to use the reserved word table in this query you can do that if you put it inside quotes (... into "table"...). All according to the standard.
It is the documentation for a proprietary database called Mimer SQL Engine but it is very close to the SQL standard so it should work on many databases.
Now, admittedly, many databases are not adhering to the standard very well but that situation is actually improving.
You can also try the SQL validator they have here. It'll help you adhere to the standard. You might learn a thing or two too.
In many cases you can do the same thing both in a proprietary way and in the standard way for any given database. Given that choice I'd suggest that you use the standard.

If I make an SVG icon with 2 billion vectors, will that still be rendered faster than a .png icon?
.png also.
If it still is faster it means that they are drawing it once to a bitmap buffer that they use from then on, but that can be used for
I say, mod the article itself as clueless.

OK, what is the deal with "In Soviet Russia XXX launch YYY".
I've seen two jokes with Soviet Russia now. And I'm not laughing. Can someone let me in on the inside joke here?

Can anyone tell me the clock speed of Intels fastest processor? Wrong! It is the 1 GHz 64 bit Itanium 2.

You can find some good documentation here
