See, that is where you are wrong. It is worth investing because it can provide a HUGE boost in power to a region that needs it. Can the technology provide the "silver bullet"? No it can't, but noone will.
It is a matter of picking a replacement for a region that makes sense. We are far too large of a country to assume that one solution will fit in all places.
The reason they can't do anything is because an officer did not see the event.
You don't want the police to be giving out tickets because any Tom, Dick or Harry called the police to complain about a driver since or I you could be on the receiving end of those tickets.
We old farts are not all that scared of doing multi-core development with all the normal tools likes basic threads and sync objects (events, mutex's and semaphores). Making code thread-safe is really not that difficult once you understand the basics (I am using C++ here since that is what I have experience with regarding multi-core/multi-thread experience) of keeping your data safe by either putting it on the stack or use the sync objects to keep global data safe.
Well, I can't speak for your school program, but the college that I attended (The University of Akron, OH) was just the opposite. Our instructors pounded us with the idea of thinking about the problem before you even picked up the pencil to poke your eyes out!
So what you are saying is that you did not read the report which stated that the hydrazine was frozen solid which would have allowed the tank to survive retry intact. Guess not.
First off, the US has NEVER claimed to be the "...immaculate custodians of space..." like you claim. Second off, regarding the Delta II second stage, it was believed based upon its size, speed, trajectory and form that it would burn up on reentry so the belief was we were OK. We know for sure that the satellite will survive reentry so we are trying to be proactive.
Do we allow toxic material to reenter, Yes. Do we believe based upon size, speed, trajectory and such that the material will burn up, Yes. Can we send up a missile on everything that is reentering our atmosphere, No. At least we are trying (for whatever reason you want to believe) as compared to other nations so please take off the tin foil hat so your head can get a little air in hopes it allows you to think just that much more clearer.
Yes they can be won. Case in point: the U.S. beat the old Soviet Union. Now some will tell you that the Russia of today is still a threat, and they are correct. But they are not the same threat as they were during the 60's and 70's. You have to fight the fight of today in hopes that the win of tomorrow will result in a brighter future. Throwing up your hands should never be an option. If you want a brighter future, you have to work for it because it will never happen without that hard work.
I could be mistaken here, but BeOS was never label by the company as a 'real-time' OS. They described it as a true multimedia OS which translates into a highly responsive OS to the users input. Big difference.
Pretty close to 'zero' if I had to guess. It just is not in Nokia's best interest because it would give their competitors an advantage, and since Nokia basically owns the code, they can just relicense it to themselves and move forward. What this means is that they can make changes to their code and not release where the competition would have to since the working code they use most likely will be GPL3. This theory gets honked if the competing company is not using the GPL version but has paid for a license.
Wow, I guess all I can say is that I feel sorry for you if you truly mean the word 'enemy'. You do realize that you pretty much fall into the same category as your 'enemy' but just on a different side of the fence.
Nowhere in the parent does it say that there is no corn lobby. What he said is that the people who lobby on behalf of the corn produces has all but zero influence.
Wow, I am not sure how to respond here. First off, IBM was never officially tagged in court as a monopoly. They had some of the best lawyers at the time, and they dragged out the proceeding so long that the case was finally dropped.
Now regarding the 'Microsoft's lawyers' comment, are you aware of just how small Microsoft was at that time? I am pretty sure you don't, and it was the DOJ against IBM and not Microsoft against IBM.
Finally, the OS/2 comment. That was a joint venture between IBM and Microsoft, or did IBM somehow force Microsoft into that venture. Each party entered into that agreement freely and willingly, and Microsoft broke free (good or bad) from that venture legally. If they hadn't, IBM would have crushed them legally.
I say this as not a fan-boy of Microsoft, but as someone who worked for an IBM owned company that used OS/2 from its inception.
You have so missed the point here. It is not the US troops that are systematically raping and killing of innocent Iraqi people. It was the dictator that was allowing that to happen for several decades. Have there been some incidents of US troops abusing civilians? As sad as it is to admit and do admit that it has happened, and we have prosecuted those soldiers.
However, it is the US troops that have shown more respect for the innocent civilians than anybody else has ever shown. It is not our troops hiding behind woman and children (that would be your Crips by the way in your comparison)? Heck no, it is the US troops that fight and die shielding and protecting those woman and children that the terrorists write off as a waste since they don't embrace their perverse sense of Islam.
You really need to open your eyes and see the bigger picture here in a truly neutral view. If you want to view the US as the bad guy because you hate us, that is fine, but please admit that you don't really care about the facts because the facts just don't back your arguments.
If Google was soooo worried about Trademark infringement, they why did they run the ads that they did because they also violated Trademarks in the same fashion.
I would disgree with you regarding the statement: Most may agree that the true failure here is created by the Bush family.
Carter and crew are making things worse for the US over there. My guess is that all the proof that I would provide you would not change your mind. I might casting judgment here, but my guess your blind hatred for Bush would not allow a single rational thought to cross your mind when it comes to this matter.
The US does more good than all of Europe put together. This includes money as well as putting physical assets on the ground to help. Period. You may try to argue, but you will be incorrect. I am sorry you hate your own country like Jimmy Carter, but if you don't like it, then just please leave. It is that simple.
Wow, what school did you go to because it was in my college prep chemistry that I also was taught the speed of the slide rule. My teacher's name was Mr. Grady.
There really is not issue when it comes to the legal aliens. The concept of legal aliens was not covered by the constitution because the term or concept didn't exist back then. The Supreme Court has ruled on this issue, and they are covered.
You are missing a few extra points before you can say that the Geneva Convention applies. One being that the person must be apart of a nations military for which people in Gitmo were not apart of at the time.
Funny how those dictatorships are so darn stable...and friendly. Please wake up. Now regarding the comment about destabilizing the entire region...well...um...you might want to read up on history because that region has never been nor ever will be stable.
I would disagree with you. What the parent was trying to explain (and he did a pretty good job in my opinion) is that most service type agreements have a level of speed/priority which equates to cost. Translation: If you want something now versus tomorrow, it will cost you more.
Also, you might want to see just how companies like UPS and such do their 'batches' as you call them. They provide several pickups for packages depending on the priority (oops, pun there!) of the package as well as dispatches of major deliveries between hubs based upon priority (oops, theres that word again...).
I have to say I just wish people would use common sense here. If you make changes to a source file that is say released under the BSD license, just keep using that license for your changes. If the author used the BSD license say, that was his/her intent to have all worked based upon that license and not say the GPL (Please be aware that I am not picking on the GPL, just using it as an example).
If you don't like or agree with the original authors license choice, then don't use that source module. To be honest, it is that easy.

You have got to be kidding me, right?
May I ask how in the heck this is Bush's fault? Is not the whole Congress in Democratic party majority?

This is also true in the financial industry.
