2 years ago I used eclipse & got sick and tired of the installation "eating" itself & needing re-install on a monthly basis.
1 year ago I used eclipse & got sick and tired of it just being too damn slow. As others have mentioned the start-up time sucked but I didn't care much about that. The real deal breaker for me was how slow it is during regular use. If you've ever tried to work with a large "enterprise" project (with 1000s of individual files), you'll know what I mean.
Today, I use IntelliJ / IDEA. It rocks. Still not as snappy as VS, but hands down a better experience for me then eclipse. I'm not going back.
Quoting the summary, "unofficial tethering methods like MyWi and PDANet"... Through apple, AT&T knows what apps you have installed. If you have MyWi or PDANet installed, and you're using a larger-than-normal amount of bandwidth, then they'll claim you are tethering.
Couldn't you design the assemblies so the boards could be conformal coated with a dialectic layer and them potted with a RF absorbing layer and then a grounded layer as not be able to pick up the emissions in the first place.
I suppose you could, but it'd really ruin your reception. As long as you have the need for a functioning antenna connected to the device, stray signals will be received as well as transmitted. Not to mention that your idea would increase the build cost in a way that most manufacturers would deem "unnecessary".
Just as described in some of the prior posts, I'd prefer UploadStream and DownloadStream. But if for some reason you don't want to use those names, how about StreamToServer and StreamToClient ?
Surprised nobody has suggested denyhosts yet. I used to get my port 22 knocked on at an average of once per second, for months. For convenience I didn't feel like changing my ssh port, and it didn't worry me much because it is my personal machine with root login turned off, and with good passwords on all other login accounts. But as someone else mentioned, it filled my logs and made it hard to notice the more important things... After installing denyhosts, the ssh dictionary attacks were blocked almost immediately and almost entirely.
Most planes employ a self-adjusting louvre system that continuously pushes in the right amount of air to keep cabin pressure at the right level. When the amount of air coming in equals the amount of air flowing out (and there most certainly is air flowing out), cabin pressure is equalized.
They do seal the doors, for passenger comfort. Yet, the plane is definitely not 100% airtight. Or watertight for that matter.
I'm absolutely certain that I could cook the same food in just as much or less time with only 1 V.
By the way, I'm getting ever closer to turning in my slashdot card. If the editors can't catch such a fundamental (and fundamentally simple) misuse of terms, E.G. if the editors don't understand these simple electrical principles that were discovered ALMOST TWO HUNDRED FREAKIN YEARS AGO, then I no longer want to be associated.
This is a TECH site. The editor of this submission should know the difference between voltage and power. No, I'm not new here. It used to be better.
Heh. He *demands* a better crack to be made. Why doesn't the developer just build a freeware version and post the torrent to that?
Oh yeah... That route wouldn't have gotten all the free advertising.
If I wanted a phone with a FM receiver in it, I'd pay a little extra to get a phone with a FM receiver in it. That is, unless YOU want to pick up the tab for a feature I'd never use. It would be unfair, at best, for you to mandate a feature designed for your gain and expect me to pay for it.
99% of the Android users assume that since they've gotten the phone from their mobile provider whom they somewhat trust, and the phone came preloaded with the Android market app, that they can trust Android Market as much as they trust their mobile provider.
And what happens if that user has already installed the app by the time Google decides to remove it from the marketplace? They've still got the malware... Which they falsely trust is not malware.
The parent is joking, right? Why the hell was it marked +5 insightful?
Sure, LVM and EXT3 could theoretically work together to provide sane, fast, performant snapshots. But I'd like to meet the person who thinks they can pull that project off.
Well I hate to be the first to break this news to you, but... There never was a need for the LVM team to coordinate with the ext3 team, because the filesystem is abstracted away and irrelevant to LVM. As far as LVM is concerned, it's just a logical mapping of blocks of data to a physical volume. The data could be a real filesystem, or not... It could be raw data written to the volume without a filesystem. LVM wouldn't care. And you could still use LVM to make a sane, fast, performant snapshot of it either way.
Download the android SDK; write an app; run it in the emulator that comes with the SDK. I'm not sure how much work it'd be to tie your 3G card(s) into the emulator (that comes with the SDK), but it's possible. Linux would be my first choice, but the SDK also runs on windows or mac os.
Bonus for getting a useful app included in the app store.
Nah to capacitors. What you want is inductors! Connect a large inductor to a 12v battery, and current starts flowing. Disconnect it, and suddenly you get a voltage spike (into the hundreds of volts!) Satisfying Ohm's law with the fact that an inductor's current can never change instantaneously.
Relays? Yah. Connect a relay to itself in series and you get what is called a "multivibrator". As soon as the circuit is closed, the current begins which activates the electromagnet, which pulls the contacts open... And then then very little current, and a large spike in voltage from the inductor. And the process repeats. Hundreds of times per second. Yah, touch the terminals, I dare ya!
Just to add a bit to the above... Before delving into the frequency-domain stuff (Laplace and Fourier transforms, etc), you should also learn the techniques of nodal analysis and mesh analysis. And then... On to transfer functions. These are the fundamentals of electronics. With a transfer function, you can characterize a circuit based on it's output response given an impulse. All theoretical now, an impulse is an infinitely large spike of voltage with an infinitely short duration. Or in more realistic terms, approximately now, it would be the response of a circuit given a really quick, but really large, voltage spike.
1) Begin with an understanding of the fundamental equation that is Ohm's Law. Voltage, current, and resistance: V=I*R. I=V/R. R=V/I. And power: P=I^2*R... P=I*V. Current is I. In some locales, Voltage is denoted as V. In others, it as denoted as E.
2) Understand what the current will be when you have a battery (of specific Voltage) and a resistor(of specific Resistance) in a series circuit. The current is dependent on the load (resistance) and voltage (12v has higher potential than 5v, thus 12 v across so many ohms of resistance has more current than 5v across the same amount of resistance). What I've found helps is to think of it in terms of fluid dynamics... Voltage is like water pressure. Current is like how fast the water in the pipe is moving. Resistance is like a bag of rocks blocking the pipe, limiting the flow, and absorbing energy, preferably doing something useful with the energy absorbed other than wasting it as heat.
3) Once you understand the above, move on the the fundamentals of capacitors and inductors. Inductors are like water-wheels. Current (rate of flow) never changes instantaneously across inductors, due to inertia. And as for capacitors, they are like water towers. Voltage rises as their stored energy rises, just as stored potential energy rises in a water tower as water is pumped into it.
Once you can visualize it, you are on to something:-) The above is a time-domain way of explaining it. Time to move on to electronics 201. Change mode of thought into the frequency domain. Get a feel for how RLC, or "resistor-inductor-capacitor" circuits work. Given the configuration of these, series, parallel, and variants, you get low-pass or high-pass filters. Like an equalizer for sound... Low pass... High pass... Dough nuts.

Look, I can defeat the lock by kicking the door in! It must be an insecure design.
You're kidding, right?
Turn the contrast up and the brightness down on your monitor. I think that would be pretty close.
Tell that to AT&T.

100% agree with make magazine. The Chinese MP3 players, not so much. The MP7 players, on the other hand....
Oh yeah, almost forgot...
