Cox Enterprises
http://www.coxenterprises.com is privately held and it's vary successful.
Parts of it are publicly traded (Cox Communications, Cox Radio) but overall it's a private company.
This is incorrect. People don't have the right to form corporations, that's a privaledge that is granted by the government.
In exchange for the benefits of operating as a corporation (as opposed to a partnership) the corporation has to submit to any restrictions that the government imposes.
Because VOIP is an APPLICATION, it uses an Application layer protocol. The fact that that protocol allows one to transmit voice over the internet is totally irrelevant.
Taxing VOIP would be no different than taxing http.
What we are seeing here is simply a shopping cart with commenting allowed for each entry.
Come on, it doesn't take much genious to do that?
Working in my dorm room, I can (and am) working on such a system.
And I don't intend on handing Amazon a single solitary cent!!
In another BBS I go to, when I posted about Palladium and the DMCA, all I got in reply were firey defenses of corporate intellectual property.
You can't disclose specifics of design flaws in proprietary works since it violates the copyrights and trade secrets of the IP owner.
Microsoft can impose Palladium, since you don't have an inherent right to choose which software you run on your computer, since windows is the property of M$ and the processor is the property of Intel.
You don't have an inherent right to transfer your data out of a proprietary format, since the format is IP and if the vendor doesn't want you to have the ability to convert to other formats, then they have the right to say you can't because it's intellectual property.
So on and so forth.
Note that IP law doesn't give corporations the right to do any of those things. And in cases where IP does apply, those rights are overridden by anti-trust laws, monopoly laws, and restraint of trade laws. (I would argue that M$ using closed file formats in order to lock you in could be legitamately considered to be a restraint of trade.)
But it seems that outside communities such as/. corporate IP takes precedence over anything, and to restrict companies like Micorsoft is a violation of corporate constitutional rights by a tyrannical government!
Comcast purchases AT&T. Cox Communications which is owned by the company I intern for Cox Enterprises, made a bid to accquire AT&T but was defeated by Comcast.
Funny, what IDE were you using. I use JBuilder and it's as fast as a rabbit.
Execution of Java is not slow. Only when you get in to swing do you have real problems, and in that case it's a library issue, not a language issue.
Capitalism isn't a political system it's an economic system.
It is in fact very possible to have a dictatorship that is ruling a capitalist state.
And it is also possible for a capitalism to be centrally commanded. (Ie, the gov't decides what to produce, but private enterprises are the one's that produce it).
First of all runtime exception terminations require no special code by the programmer. The VM will simply raise the exception and inform the programmer of the the exact line that the error occured.
With C, C++, all using Signal does possibly what kind of things that the operating system is about to kill you for, and gives you the chance to exit will your head still on your shoulders, before the operating system goes ahead and decapitates your program.
Tech does not forbid discussing assignments with each other. I did it all the time, almost every Java program I had involved me talking on AIM with fellow students, and having friends critique buggy code.
However all the code used in my programs was my own.
Even today, I meet with friends and give detailed analysis of what must be done to implement the solution. Go over syntax etc.
However it's up to the student to code his/her own assignment.
Furthermore, the author of the article says that 30 lines of code was copied. Come on now 30 lines of verbatim code.
It's fine to share ideas, it's not fine to copy code, and it's impossible to have 30 lines of verbatim code without some sort of cheating going on.

Java is just as fast and functional than either of those 2 languages.

So what?
.NET are focusing around XML use, though .NET seems to be promoting thier XML utilities more than the J2EE folk.
Both Java and
"Well handled.." ha

Umm, almost all higher level CS classes are team based.
1321, and 1322 are classes that actually teach people how to code.
