Can someone explain to me what the system does in these 126 microsecond? Is it sending packets through the world, doing some complicated calculations, solving locking resources? It seems an awefully long time to add to a table and update some stats.
One eighth of a millisecond is an awfully long time?
Then how come Safari (the default browser on a Mac) only has 4-5% share according to web usage statistics? NPD is a reputable source, but I'd like to see the actual study myself, rather than hearsay.
Firefox and Chrome. It's the same reason that Internet Explorer browser share is dropping far more rapidly than Windows market share.
its ok man, there just using the phrase losely. you have to learn to except it and ignore the affects on you're sensibilities. you no what I mean? People in all woks of life make these mistakes; you just have to stuff them in your mental chester drawers and forget about them. that way, for all intensive porpoises, you donut run around with emotions all penned up.
I knew there was a reason I friended you, you brilliant bastard.
As an aside, the phrase is "toeing the party line" as in the military parade style of lining up side by side with your toe right at the line. Spelling it as "tow the line" makes it sound like you're attaching the party's ideology to your trailer hitch.
Considering the article estimates the bing bang to have happend around 13.7 billion years ago, I don't see how red dwarves can exist for over 100 billion years.
Observe a red dwarf over a period of years and estimate its current mass as well as its rate of mass depletion. Then do the math and calculate the amount of time it will take until its mass is such that it is no longer a red dwarf. Obviously someone has done this and come up with an estimated longevity of more than 100 billion years.
Does the guy that designed or built your car get royalties every time you get in it? Does the guy that designed or made your clothes get royalties every time you wear them?
Does the music company who sold me a CD get paid every time I listen to it? Are you trying to be badanalogyguy?
They're doing Archimedes solar ray AGAIN? Aren't we up to three already (the original myth and two revisits)? Obviously I think it is fun that Obama will be on the show but frankly aside from that I really don't want to see that same tired Myth for a third time...
The important thing is to have a proper test. They often redo things which viewers complain loudly about. I say they should do this one over, but use the Arthur C. Clarke approach of 50,000 well-trained fans in a stadium with tin-foil reflectors. The Stroke of the Sun (later known as "A Slight Case of Sunstroke"). It's only 6 pages long... great read.
If they could debunk that successfully it would be fantastic. People have been trying for a couple of years now, and still over 25% of this country is convinced he wasn't legally elected.
That's better than Bush Jr's stats, where over 50% was convinced he wasn't legally elected.
I mentioned Firefly to one of my coworkers last year and, after watching a few of the episodes on Hulu with his tween daughter, they liked the show so much that he bought the television series and Serenity on DVD as a birthday gift for her.
I am strangely persuaded by your sample size of one.
Given that Oracle thinks this will lead to a conflict of interest, doesn't that kind of imply that there will be a conflict of interest?
I can't see how there isn't. Imagine WordPerfect had a community council and the Microsoft Word team wanted to participate. Yeah, I'm sure they'd be welcomed with open arms.
"Hey guys, we're actually forming a competing product forked from your codebase. You don't mind if we stick around as council members, do you?"
The folks at Oracle are the successors to the folks at Sun. Sun's obligations are their obligations.
It's like Alice saying to Bob: "Hey Bob, can you help me move? If you do, I'll sleep with you." and Bob helps out. Then she says "Hey Bob, can you help me with my masters thesis? I'll sleep with you if you do." and Bob helps. Then she says "Hey Bob, I need someone to pick up and install this new appliance that I bought. If you help me, I'll sleep with you." and he does.
Then Alice gets married to Charlie and Bob says, "Hey, you said a bunch of times that you'd sleep with me." And Alice laughs and calls him a silly man.
So... how do I move heavy stuff? How do I travel when it's raining? When it's fucking cold? When it's fucking hot? When it's more than a few kms?
I used to ride more than 15km each way to/from work. Solution: shower and carry a change of clothing. I was a fair weather rider, but others don rain gear and travel in the rain. Others even do so in snow when it's -20 C and the snow is up to their pedals -- this was a weather reporter I read about in either Edmonton or Calgary, I forget which, who rode her bike 365 days a year in temperatures anywhere from -40 C to +40 C. When it's hot, you wear less and use sunscreen. Unless it's so hot and your route so challenging that you're likely to suffer from heat stroke, it's definitely doable.
On the rare occasion you need to move heavy stuff (what, a few times a year?) you borrow a friend's vehicle or you rent one. It's extremely cheap. If it's only moderately heavy stuff, do a Google image search for "bicycle cargo trailer". It does the trick for everything except really heavy loads + really steep hills. Here's one result from that search which surprised me as well as this linked article on moving a refrigerator.
All that said, you're right that a bicycle will never replace a car. If you and friends want a relaxing night out for dinner and then perhaps go somewhere nice afterward, you'd need to be really super dedicated to cycle there, shower and change, haul your smelly gear to the restaurant while you wear your wrinkled clothes, etc. To some, it's a "who can be more extreme" contest but, excluding the zealots, the sensible approach is to use a bicycle when it makes sense and take your car when it makes sense.
All very true, and the usual line from responsible admins is "Why are you doing that? You should only use it as one factor (eg: assign points in SpamAssassin) rather than blindly accepting/rejecting connections from email servers based only on the RBL." To use only a single list without any oversight, review, or means of appeal is being irresponsible.
Of course, this is all moot if a payment processor must and without question blacklist anybody on the watchlist in order to do business with companies in the United States, for example. However, if the watchlist is only for advisory purposes only, then turn the heat up on the payment processor.
Now, since you say editing is bad, tell me of one news item you've seen where you were showed video that was not edited, go ahead, name the news item where they showed the whole video, not just the interesting bit. I'd like to know of that mythical time that happened that it seems you have witnessed. Or a newspaper you know that doesn't have an editor, maybe?
How about Slashdot? No editing seems to happen as far as I can tell.

I told it that just had a nail removed from my motorcycle tire and it told me that it likes to keep its nails trimmed - lol
That's quite smart. By trimming the sharp end of a nail, there's less chance of it puncturing your tire.

So this really is towing the party line...

Pfft, femtoscopes. Anyone not using a yoctoscope might as well turn in his nerd card now.

I believe the term, when applied to 30+ year old adults, is murder.
You just need to be a little more generous in how you apply the term limit.
Anything up until the 150th trimester is fair game?
Fine, Canada. We're going to declare Justin Bieber a toxic substance.
Justin Bieber is living proof of the fact that BPA mimics the effects of estrogen.

Toyota cant R and D this themselves after decades of research?
sounds like a back scratching deal to me
Sort of like a "you scratch our backs, we won't sue you for patent infringement" kind of deal?
I didn't know he was still alive. So much for assumptions.
This news is quite surreal... almost like it's half real and half imaginary.
