I was actually looking for one of these the other day, not to be my main IDE, but for when I was out and about and away from my computer. I came across http://codeide.com/ which is mentioned in TFA as well as several other places, but the site doesn't seem to work..
Their old blog is still live ( http://codeide.livejournal.com/ ) but it links to the new blog which is now dead. (last week it was giving me a copy of the home page.)
So.. now the next obvious step is (should be) adding this look-ahead technology to hybrid cars and see what the fuel savings look like.
Think about it: hybrids don't save that much energy on the highway. Where they really win is in stop and go. I've heard of some hybrid trucks that only use the electric for accelerating, and rely on the gas 100% for maintaining speed.
So you combine both and you suddenly have fuel savings for in town stop-and-go as well as fuel savings for highway driving. Sounds like a win to me.
PBDE, or polybrominated diphenyl ether, is a flame-retardant sub-family of the brominated flame-retardant group. They have been used in a wide array of household products, including fabrics, furniture, and electronics. There are three main types, referred to as penta, octa and deca for the number of bromine atoms in the molecule. After studies in Sweden found substances related to PentaBDE accumulating in breast milk and other tissues, Sweden reduced the use of this substance. A follow-up study has in the meantime indicated declining levels.[1]
The European Union has carried out a comprehensive risk assessment under the Existing Substances Regulation 793/93/EEC of Penta-, Octa- and DecaBDE. As a consequence the EU has banned the use of Penta-and OctaBDE since 2004. Deca-BDE use has been exempted under the European Union's RoHS Directive since 15 October 2005 following the positive outcome of a EU scientific assessment.
Surprisingly, an experiment done the at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution in Massachusetts in 2005 showed that the isotopic signature of PBDEs found in whale blubber contained carbon-14, the naturally occurring radioactive isotope of carbon. If the PBDEs in the whale had come from artificial (human-made) sources, they would have only contained carbon-12 and no carbon-14 due to the fact that virtually all PBDEs which are produced artificially use petroleum as the source of carbon, all carbon-14 would have long since completely decayed from that source.[2] The experiment thus shows that there must be some as yet unidentified natural source of PBDEs. However this source is extremely unlikely to account for the concentrations of PBDEs measured in human tissues, wildlife, household dust and common foods.
I'm not a big fan of the US Government having a lot of control over anything, but as far as the complaints of them controlling the internet go, I'd like to point out two things:
1) Everybody here seems to rally behind the net neutrality bills, but that at is core is the government placing some control over the internet.
2) Didn't the US government play a significant role in the original developing of the internet? If so, then wouldn't it make sense that the government responsible for building it have a little bit of control over it?
I really wish slashdot would try and stick to IT stories instead of worrying why I, and apparently 48% of Americans, don't believe the unproven* theorie of evolution.
I choose to believe what the Bible says, namely that God created man.
*I believe in evolution to the extent that it has been proven but no further. Because birds beaks vary depending on what type of food is available does not prove to me that single celled organisms eventually turned into walking, breathing human beings.
1) The built-in Wi-Fi, aka 'the social,' was a bad idea.
Scrap the one cool part that nothing else has? Fuck that! Make it useful instead! I have a win mobile phone w/unlimited data and I love having the ability to stream radio and download podcasts to it without needing a pc. Make that work on the zune and I'd be just about sold. (It stil needs a 60+ gb hard drive to really get me interested.)
2) Tell newbies what is can do.
Uh.. yea. If it were written properly I'd say that's a given.
3) Create a low-end, flash-based player.
Sure. Give it wifi.
4) Push subscriptions.
This one I support. I got a free Ruckus account for being in college and I have gotten a lot of music and audio (Dane Cook, Jim Gaffigan) that I probably would never have tried. As long as the users understand that they're just renting the music, I think subscription is a fine model.
5) Make it sexy.
Good advice.. but I don't really see it happening.
I was kind of stumped on who to ask about this and I can't figure it out. I figure It can't hurt to ask here. My IIS SMTP server (the one that comes with Server2003, not Exchange) can not send emails to hotmail.com or msn.com addresses. they always bounce.
Here's a wireshark description of the connection: (with the emails slightly edited)

And it just stops there. No response from hotmail, my server doesn't send anything more. It's been doing this for a couple of weeks I think.
Can anybody tell me whats going on here? Or perhaps where I can go to get some help?
They give you that price if you just go and sign up. You can get a better deal if you shop around a bit. Right now I'm paying ~$32 for 450 minutes and ~$15 for unlimited data. That and taxes.
Here's what I did to make my myspace, facebook, and wordpress blogs play nice together.
- I post everything to my myspace blog. - A service called Make Data Make Sense turns the html into an rss feed. - Feedburner grabs this rss feed. - my wordpress blog (on my server) has a plugin called feed wordpress that grabs the feed burner feed and posts everything then - facebook grabs the wordpress rss feed and posts everything as notes.
Notes about this system: 1) It works. I write a post once and it shows up in all 3 places.:) 2) It could work better. Myspace is the absolute worst of the 3 and, surprise, the one nobody else wanted to work with. I could not find a way to automatically import posts into myspace. That's why I have the start there. 3) Feedburner regularly tells me that my feed is bad because when myspace times out, so does make data make sense. Feedburner is part of the chain so that wordpress doesn't have to deal with this. 4) You have to be careful about formatting. My myspace blog has a white background while my wordpress has a black background. This makes adding a lot of color a bit tough. Facebook reformats everything, stripping most of the html and moving / resizing all of the images. I generally stick to <b> and <i> tags and not much else. 5) It's a bit slow - if I time it wrong it might take 4-6 hours before the post shows up on all 3 sites. I generaly post around midnight then go to bed, so this isn't a big issue for me.
What I would ultimately like is a system that allows me to post to wordpress and then pushes those posts out immediately to the other sites with proper formating.
I used Gmail for your Domain for a few of the domains I have and it's been absolutely terrible. Some accounts just plain won't receive certain emails. Anything I have my php scripts send me, including customer contact forms off of the website just plain disappear. Not in the spam folder, no bounce message, nothing. And I double checked the SPF records, they were perfect. Funniest part is that all of the other accounts DO receive these emails.
Another account stopped being able to send email. I sent maybe 20 messages total out of this account and then it told me that I had hit my limit and could not send any more emails. Except for when I connected via POP3, then it sent just fine. Except a few weeks after that, It stopped receiving messages, instead sending a bounce message that my in box was full. This was my 2 gig in box with about 150 emails in it.
And I know of someone else who let me log into their account to see if I could fix it. their account took around 4 minutes to log in and a similar amount of time to do anything (open an email, switch to the spam folder, archive a message, *anything*). I longed out and longed into my account and it worked perfectly. Deleted cookies and cache and his lagged again. Tried his account on another computer and it lagged again.
I contacted google's support and WHEN they responded, it took no less than a occasionally a week. Ad then it was just with a generic pre-written message, never anything solid. But they didn't even respond half the time.
All in all I was rather shocked at how terrible gmail for your domain is, given that I very much like my regular gmail account.
I quit reading the article after the printer page because they picked a Minolta Magicolor. Those things have got to be the worst printers ever. To quote a coworker "Minoltas are shittier than lexmarks.. yea."
some designers, like DE Designs' Mr. Hester, have taken steps to copyright their work.
Like what? Creating it. Because that's all it takes. Once you create a new work, it's copyrighted. Period. You can register the copyright which helps with enforcing it, but there are basicaly no steps to copyright a work.
A lot of stores try to hide their security equipment. I guess that makes sense for them.
Here's the flipside of that: A friend of mine works in a smaller store that can't afford much of a security system. So they bought the little tags that you can pin on to items (The shop sells a lot of clothes) and they put them on the articles and dont try all that hard to hide them. The funny part is that the store doesn't even have the detectors at the doors! Their theory is that shoppers / shoplifters see the taged clothing items and just assume that the rest of the security system is in place. The best part is that it seems to be working!
I like my eraser mouse over a trackpad also; but I have and IBM x41 tablet, so about half of the time I'm using the stylus / 'digitizer pen' instead. Thats about the simplest control I've uesd yet.
I found the contact an editor link on reuters.com and explained that the statement is not truthful because songs are 100% copyright protected reguardless of digital measures taken. and that a truthful statement would be that they are 'non-copy-protected' files.

http://hackermonthly.com/ They take the most popular articles from http://news.ycombinator.com/ and, with permission, republish the article in a beautiful print format.
Can you elaborate on how you did this?

You're pretty much right. that guys an idiot.
In related news, women have been found far more likely to take surveys online.

Actually, we do have spf set up. I'll double check em though; I think they did get tinkered with recently. Thanks
