Introduction to Object Oriented Programming With C++
Millspaugh, Anita
Harcourt College Publishers
ISBN: 0-03-023621-5
Digital version: $40
Amazon marketplace: 23 from $7.49 - just bought one including shipping for $10
Amazon.co.uk: 19.95 = $30USD approx.
so what would you use? what's the advantage, when i can have a book in my hand for $10 to have it digitally for $40...
Is someone listening to "Smack my bitch up" (Prodigy) really going to be productive in the office?
No, but "Smack my Switch up" (sysadmins) might be:-)
I was asleep in bed, as most college students are at 6am.
I was awoken by a loud pop, and the worst electrical burning i ever did smell. I thought humm, shit, this can't be good. I have 2 computers, a Linux and a Win.. and a UPS and misc accessors. The Linux one was the only one running so i thought i'd better shut it down as it just blew up. so i did "halt" and it went down fine.
The smell was _really_ bad, i couldn't stay in the room, so i opened the windows, and switched stuff off and went to sleep in another bed. Only i couldn't sleep, i was thinking what might it be. It suddenly crossed my mind, what else could it be? i checked everything.. and discovered nothing, until the only thing left was the machine that was switched off. I carried it downstairs and something was rattling insde.
An inductor had _BLOWN UP_ and _DISINTEGRATED_ inside the power supply.. i was baffled, the machine was switched off. It took with it a sound card and a SCSI card. I replaced the powersupply, and thought "i know, i'll run a backup".
I inserted tape into drive... "media not found", and i'll be, if the drive didn't chew the tape up and get it stuck inside!
The metro in Moscow is a lot better, have you seen the marble floors, the lack of trash/litter, the pride taken in it? Compare it to London or NYC or Paris, and what have you got? more expense and less quality.
The congetstion charge in London is all very well if it gets spent on something useful. Like the tube.
are businesses allowed to demand your SSN? obviously not many people apart from the government of the bank have any use for it, is there a right to SSN privacy?
I have to say, i quite like Dr Web[SALD.com is their english mirror].
Although it's written by some Russians, it seems very good. Worth having a look at it. Integrates nicely in MTAs such as postfix, sendmail.

Tortology - that's what was being referred to.
PIN number - Personal Identification Number Number - gonna say that?
NIC card - Network Interface Card Card.
What's to stop Microsoft charging a large amount of money to sign it, just to make it unfeasible? that way, they aren't actually saying "no"...
