It does not need input other then a massive amount of photos. The program does all the piecing together and building of the 3D layout. If you goto the microsoft site on it they have more details. For the video all they did was get a bunch of photos from different people of the same object and feed them into the program and you saw what they got.
As for the bad part, it takes days and a powerful computer for anything beyond the very basic set of pictures.
The only way you can say that everyone in Germany has high speed is if you define high speed as ISDN. ISDN has about 100% availability.
However for high speed 2/4/16Mbps that is alot less if you go outside any large population center. For instance I live less then 10km from a city of around 99,000 and can only get 2Mbps if you go just 2km more then the towns around there just got 2Mbps last year in parts of the towns.
You have it backwards, the laws are there to require that tech workers get classified as getting overtime.
Before theses laws singling out tech workers everyone classifed tech workers as high end professionals and exempt from overtime and therefore worked them for free hours, you still have that as seen in the Apple lawsuit. The laws now make it alot harder to qualify tech workers as being exempt from overtime and as such you now have legal actions against those companies that "don't pay overtime" but still require you to work extra hours.
SWG had a better system then the single class system but still sucked compared to something like Asheron's Call or even UO. For all purposes it was basiclly a class system that allowed multiple classes. If you wanted to be a doctor and totally advoid any type of crafting and wasting points on crafting no can do because to be a top doctor required you will in all the skills in the doctor class which including crafting. If you wanted to use a flame thrower as your weapon to bad because you also had to learn, pistols and rifles.
Do like the shirt comparison, and there is always hope for the KOTOR MMORPG.
That you were given of class or be fired does not matter you took the course. The only place I could think where it may cause problem would be in a unionized shop and you are going outside of your job description.
As for being laid off all the companies I have worked for only required you to pay back if you left on your own accord, aka were not fired or laid off. If you know of a company that requires you to pay back if you are fired or laid off I would like to know so I can avoid them.
Wow talk about a bunch of historically wrong information.
1) In Europe the US did not practice indiscriminate area bombing during WW2.
2) Dresden was primarily a RAF action.
3) The British to not consider the US Soliders as terrorists. While you had rules of war they came from Napoleonic era and deal with things like surrendering, taking of war prisoners, how to arrange meetings, etc. What you are talking about was the US not using the same rules and tactics that British soldiers used. For instance use of Privateering, used by the US and most other countries not used by the British or the most common example the use of three ranks of soliders, since England quickly changed that I guess it not a "rule of war" as you defined and it wasn't it was a tactic.
To throw more water on this tactics equaling "rules of war" go read some British books on the reason they lost and they say it was because they would not change thier tactics to handle the situation, while Americans were acting separately and when the commanding officers were killed kept on firing when that happened on the British side they kept waiting for further orders.
Ignoring the illegal reason to fire race, age, religion, etc and signed contracts for the job you do not have many successful suits over at will terminations. The other reason you cannot be fired is public good, you cannot be fired for refusing to serve spoiled meat or for cooking the books. Excluding age their is not many lawsuits in for this.
The reason you have successful termination cases is because the companies ignored their own rules. The employee handbook has been ruled by courts are part of the employment contract so if you get fired in violation of the handbook you have a case.
The other place have some successful lawsuits is with relocated you have a mixed set of cases but the general thinking is that relocating is a hardship and if you are fired right afterwards you might get some money for the hardship. California and Pennsylvania are the only states that have specific laws limiting "at will" firing right after a relocation..
The biggest problem most of these cases have is people say they have verbal contract of a length of employment which is worthless. From personal experience ALWAYS get written verification about start date, job offers, etc.
That you are salaried is not an indication you are not eligible for overtime. This is often a ploy by management to get extra hours for free.
The federal Fair Labor Standards Act, Section 13(a)(1), exempt "any employee employed in a bona fide executive, administrative, or professional capacity" also outside sale forces.
The problem is what defines administrative and professional, for comptuer people it is the Exemption for Employees in Computer-Related Occupations. With this being part of the descrition
"Computer Employee Exemption
To qualify for the computer employee exemption, the following tests must be met:
The employee must be compensated either on a salary or fee basis at a rate not less than $455 per week or, if compensated on an hourly basis, at a rate not less than $27.63 an hour;
The employee must be employed as a computer systems analyst, computer programmer, software engineer or other similarly skilled worker in the computer field performing the duties described below;
The employee's primary duty must consist of:
1) The application of systems analysis techniques and procedures, including consulting with users, to
determine hardware, software or system functional specifications;
2) The design, development, documentation, analysis, creation, testing or modification of computer systems or programs, including prototypes, based on and related to user or system design specifications;
3) The design, documentation, testing, creation or modification of computer programs related to machine operating systems; or
4) A combination of the aforementioned duties, the performance of which requires the same level of skills.
The computer employee exemption does not include employees engaged in the manufacture or repair of computer hardware and related equipment.
Employees whose work is highly dependent upon, or facilitated by, the use of computers and computer software programs (e.g., engineers, drafters and others skilled in computer-aided design software), but who are not primarily engaged in computer systems analysis and programming or other similarly skilled computer-related occupations identified in the primary duties test described above, are also not exempt under the computer employee exemption."
The question about what Apple is doing is comes down to what are the employess doing, if they are building the ipods then they are probably low skilled people and something is really wrong at Apple if they think they could get away with doing this.
There is an old joke about this:
What is the difference between Americans and Europians?
Americans think 200 years is long time.
Europians thinks 200 miles(322KM) is a long distance.
So let the complaints on the code begin.
BTW if you want to get into the fun stuff answer question 1 incorrect and question 2 correct and hit submit.
On the sad side if you answer questions 1 and 2 correct and then forget the rest of the questions you don't get hit with having some dementia and just a boring all is probably fine screen.
That steam engines ran on burning mummies was a joke by Mark Twain in The Innocent abroad
The full joke is
"The fuel use for the locomotive is composed of mummies three thousand years old, purchased by the ton or by the graveyard for that purpose, and . . . sometimes one hears the profane engineer call out pettishly, 'D--n these plebeians, they don't burn worth a cent--pass out a King!'"
They have been moving somewhat but they are going to get lots of bad press during the next couple of weeks.
Here are some examples
Lots of live concerts, inside bars, non-government concert halls, etc have been told they could not perform, via a police crackdown. Also since any live concert of any type needs a permit the office giving those permits has not been giving them out to non-government organized events for the past months, for the time during and leading to the olympics.
large parts of the city have been placed off limits to anyone who does not have business in that area, and if are a tourist you have no business.
Restaurants are being told what they can serve during the Olymipic time period.
Doctors are being told that they cannot perform elective medical surgery, this is more because the government wants to make sure enough trained medical personal are available.
Everyone is required to carry ID and police are allow to stop and perform full searches and verifiication of residence and belongings at any time.
Even more lockdown on travel for Chinesse, it is easier for a forgiener to travel around the country then it is for a citizen.
Heard a report about the temp housing thier at Bejing that they said while the high end places are filling up the buget site are not.
Considering that the high end places are being filled up by news reporters and corporate management that is not a surprise, but with budget not filling up that looks bad for the attendance point of view; will be interesting to see what tickets are available.
On the price side, they had an interview with a lady who had purchased the rights to an area of rental housing which she had fixed up. Original plans were for renting the places and charging 7x the normal rate, she is now down to 5x and is only at around 50% full; she needs 80% occupency to break even.
We'll be back soon...
Due to overwhelming interest, our Cuil servers are running a bit hot right now. The search engine is momentarily unavailable as we add more capacity.
True, but the smokers force the non-smokers to not enjoy businesses that they would like to try.
So if you think there would be enough business then you are free to open a business that would be non-smoking.
Whos right is it to say don't want the non-smoker buiness, the owner who is making a living off of the business and is using that to support thier family or some government official who would get paid no matter what?
Actually CE has 3 different usages.
Common Era
Christian Era
Current Era
Age wise in usage to the gegorian calendar it was BC/AD first done by the person who did the calendar. Then references to Common Era, done for some legal reasons some group of people legal people used a different dating system so you had to know if it was a date in the CE system or the AD system. Finally recently you have references to it meaning Current Era.
Which finally begs the question "What makes it the common/current era?"

Found this, http://www.carterlawfirm.net/california-computer-professional-exemption.htm, which lists the California rules for what is a computer professional and they are stricter then federal laws.
