funny, I"ve been using firefox all evening and my cpu usage is 1.3% doing nothing. Oh yeah, I'm not using Windows. My windows box at work sometimes has cpu usage pegged while doing nothing, and firefox isn't even involved.
No, efficient hydrogen production requires high temperature, whether high temperature electrolysis of steam (with a nuclear reactor), or high temperature thermochemical production (with a nuclear reactor), or steam reforming of natural gas (playing with fossil fuel again, but this is how it's mostly done today). Electrolysis of water at home with solar cells would be laughable, as in puny amount of hydrogen and mostly wasted energy.
not at all, it's just a roundabout way of pointing out he first used a VAX. I'm hoping Unix/Linux/BSD some day gets all the features that VMS had out of the box like built in database and clustering of file and job queues. OK, so I'm an old VMS admin, just kidding.
you can't just remove one backend SQL dbms and slide another one in, there's way too many differences in SQL commands, data types, stored procedures, triggers, management, configuration. You're generally going to have to do a migration and change client side software. Huge projects, I've made a pile doing them.
pollution-free cars that run on hydrogen? Batteries for hybrids? These energy *storage* technologies won't help if we continue producing most of our electricity from fossil fuels.
when most people speak of "the database", they are talking also talking about the front-end, middleware, back end services and routines, and maybe even the machines that host these things. Just like "the network" is used to mean file, email, internet and print services by most people. Get used to it.
realclimate.org has an agenda, and will happily quote any source that agrees with its agenda. Just for balance, I suggest http://www.iceagenow.com/ as having at least as much entertainment value.
the low power level is why you can't cook an egg with two phones, but the cell phones don't "direct" or "point" an energy beam at the tower while communicating with it, a dipole antenna isn't directional.
you mean that's a good way to become b12 deficient, or are you popping pills of b12 that came from an animal? I eat steak and bacon, my count is 80. Raw vegatables open you up to all kinds of neat parasite and fungal diseases.
ah, but it may be that the most common type of twin is the "mirror" twin. There is speculation that left handed people such as myself are part of a set of mirror twins, where the other twin gets absorbed or otherwise becomes nonviable early in the pregnancy. Therefore we mirror twin lefties might an an antisoul. Mwhuahahhahaha...
actually, the results from a google search could be quite confusing, as the U.S.A. is getting its tritium from recycled warheads currently. The usual methods historically included lithium bombardment in a light water reactor, or deuterium bombardment in a heavy water reactor. But the prosposed means for future production includes accelerators or lithium aluminate rods in light water reactor, as well as other means.

sure, but in the realm of perl 5.x at least the objects, closures, interators are alot more effort to build and hard to read with that butt-ugly syntax. The ideas being tossed around for Perl 6 look cool, but I really think that project is getting mired down

no, but there's a wordcode vm in the works, see YARV. the appeal for ruby to me is the passing of code block to a method to get nifty stuff like internal iterators, mixin methods, and less typing compared to almost all languages to get a given job done. And of course Matz stole enough ideas from Perl to do all the nifty quicky shell-script hacks.

that "my" business in Perl is silly, the default should be local, and I *hate* typing the name of a new variable in a raggy ol' "my list" (been doing Perl for over 11 years, so I have a Right To Rag. But I do like Ruby better, been naming those local variables with care, defining methods for insured isolation, and haven't had any problems.

are you talking about block-local variables, and their weird rule that Matz himself says "I must have been crazy when I made this rule?", i.e., local variable referenced in a block doesn't create new scope? If variable doesn't exist it will be created, if it does it will not create new scope and use existing local value. Also that block parameters hold same block local rules. That rule has had huge debate, but it looks like it will stay. Doesn't cause any problem if one names one's variables accordingly, or if one always uses methods rather than just making a simple code block.

Hah! The truth is that Perl 6 is still under development, and what you can run today is a subset of what MIGHT be in Perl 6. There really is no Perl 6, just Larry and folk trying out new ideas (some very cool sure) and floating trial balloons. And its virtual machine, Parrot, which is about 40% complete. So a book about Perl 6 is impossible, but if you're a huge Perl fan, you can jump into the fun and get into the creation of the next generation of Perl (test, debug, design, critique)

general relativety has that prediction, this theory just modifies how much. So you're in good company!
