When the tag cloud is produced (we aren't just tagging for our own amusement are we?) if everyone tags him as pigpile, then we are gonna have a whole lotta bacon filling up the screen...
It will give him more revenue because people might actually follow through on the articles.
Just a thought, obviously you can tag however you want...

Breakeven = all costs wages and overheads. It would be stupid to operate at a loss. Anything above breakeven goes back to the company for future stability and development.

I read it as "if you can't beat them, join them" mentality. After all, if you find yourself without a viable job in your country, whats wrong with taking a gap year and going travelling the world on a busmans holiday?

Its not exactly reverse outshoring, but it shows how tides change. Which country will be the next cheap target? When will we come full circle and realise that there are dedicated capable individuals in the original countries? I speak to people from all around the world and there are examples of in-country outshoring occuring (jobs in London being replaced with staff in Manchester - its simply cheaper up North) and the London staff were just as outraged, its peoples lives the managers are playing with and sometimes the bottom line isn't that important. I would make a terrible manager because as long as I could break even in my field I would be happy.
Staff at the school were happy with how the opening day went, the pupils were welcomed in by a Brian Eno classic on the tannoy system. This informed them that the tannoy system was working and it was now safe to enter the building.
However, once the day got underway things quickly went downhill in the English letter writing class.
"Dear aunt, let's set so double the killer delete select all,"
Meanwhile the gymnasium had to be rebooted twice after some children overloaded the basketball hoops. Several pupils were stuck in the changing rooms for a few hours until the scandisk procedure managed to locate all the fragments of the key to unlock the door.
The music class was interrupted because someone brought in an illegal sample of a track in mp3 format and forgot to include a verification document from the parents of the original composer signed in blood.
On top of all these problems, the school is hunting for the person responsible for posting "goatse" on every single whiteboard, this shocking image appeared at 14:21 and remained on screen for 15 minutes whilst technicians located and removed it.
Simple really - I spent too much time in the IT suite and almost flunked english. At least I can type quickly and produce clean code. The intent gets through and when I do cock up I know people like yourself will fix it for me.
I like the science. I like helping people. I don't like Windows only java clients which include dll files (they say on the front page its java based, but then on download page you see Mac OS X and Linux version in preparation. I think the DLL is going to pretty much stop all that.
I don't like running random programs accessing none standard data from my harddrive without knowing exactly what its looking at and what happens to my drive if its not got the required capabilities.
There is no technical information about this program or what it actually examines on a harddrive, coupled with the crypto java code buried inside the package (look in bcprov-jdk14.jar\org\bouncycastle\crypto) makes me nervous.
Negating all that it looks cool and if the technical aspects are cleared up I will try it.
I wonder if this functionality could be used to give any standard laptop a similar alarm feature as on the latest macbooks?
Nahhhhhhhh that has to be WGA notifications and even then its only a fraction less than other updates. Unfortunately the people who care enough about the DRM crap are statistically insignificant.
I had read the article (especially this bit): The Firefox team has been given the analysis results, and they will determine if or how they will deal with the issues.
What I was trying to clarify was whether the team had been mailed earlier and given a reasonable timeframe to examine the vulns. But you are right, further down he says he has not publically released the identified locations of such vulns so it isn't as important.
Actually, I welcome the analysis but I hope they gave the key developers some time to investigate their claims first. Like any possible exploit, the responsible thing to do is let them know.
They tested one of these cards using an actual game and received a increased framerate and overall game experience vs the identical computer without the card.
Well sure its obvious a network game wouldn't run as well if you remove the network card.
Having purchased a Windows version of the software it seems such a waste when there is "compatible" hardware available to run without buying an additional copy.

Unfortunately I googled the few key phrases I remember from it but whilst reading it I could hear her voice and picture the scenery and camera path.
A simply awesome game.
In 2291, in an attempt to control violence among deep space miners the New Earth Government legalized no-holds-barred fighting.
Liandri Mining Corporation, working with the NEG, established a series of leagues and bloody public exhibitions.
The fight's popularity grew with their brutality. Soon, Liandri discovered that the public matches were their most profitable enterprise.
The professional league was formed; a cabal of the most violent and skilled warriors in known space, selected to fight in a Grand Tournament.
Now it is 2341, 50 years have passed since founding of DeathMatch. Profits from the Tournament number in the hundreds of billions.
You have been selected to fight in the professional league by the Liandri Rules Board. Your strength and brutality are legendary.
The time has come to prove you are the best; to crush your enemies; to win the Tournament.
How will that warn people?

Forget indexes, they were backup tapes not originals.
This wasn't offline archiving, this was backing up the live data.
All the original records still exist.
Ermmmmmmmmm theres also torrents available... Don't think theres any DRM there *whistles quietly*

If you think thats bad, think about the poor Dell guy who has to replace the ISS batteries.
Nasa were smart and paid for onsite maintenance.

I gather you mean we are missing a tag cloud or other ways to view what OTHER people have tagged as a whole?
It seems like a glaring omission.
They tested one of these cards using an actual game and received a increased framerate and overall game experience vs the identical computer without the card.
Well sure its obvious a network game wouldn't run as well if you remove the network card.
I jest of course..
I can't believe it either but you made me giggle like a schoolgirl, so thank you.
