If you live in Europe, you can buy THHGTTG with amazing discounts. Not affiliated with bol.com, just a satisfied customer and also surprised that they actually give discounts on this special day.
In March, the Google Docs team introduced the Drawings feature. Now you can create drawings, schematics etc. in your Google Docs document. Now when you want to print your doc, or export it to some other format than HTML, then you get a nice error message.
If you want to export or print, the workaround for the last three months has been... not to use drawings in your documents! Great feature!
Actually, some people think they have Electromagnetic hypersensitivity and they suffer from it, with complaints of headaches, constant tiredness, etc. Of course, when using a blind test the sufferers could not distinguish between an active and non-existing EM field.
I know it's not an embedded ARM system, but this does give an idea of the nearly negligible power savings available by halving your clock speed.
You got an 8.78% percent power savings. I don't think that's "nearly neglibible". Maybe you're correct in the absolute sense; what's a 2.8 W power savings? Then I'd say it still isn't too bad.
And yes, I'm the guy that pulls out the wall warts when not at home.
It doesn't do SlashDot for shit though...someone needs to work on that.
Someone already did. Make a new account, go to the homepage, click 'Help & Account' at the top-right, click 'Index', then check the 'Simple Design' checkbox.
Go to your phone and go to http://slashdot.org/index.pl If you use index2.pl, then you'll get back the new (slow) design. Log in and voila, a perfectly browsable slashdot on your phone.
Loved your blog. Great pics. I've done my graduation in China and had a wonderful time.
Concerning your comment, we should indeed praise improvement. But when I was in Shanghai, there was such an ambitious atmosphere that these people didn't need praise -- they'll figure it out all on their own. I wrote my bachelor's thesis at Lucent in Shanghai, and even the cleaning lady was learning English (while learning me Chinese).
Sometimes people also forget that these cities are way more massive, way more bigger than the typical Western(-European) city. Amsterdam is like a damned village compared to something like Shanghai. There is so much more going on, it's such a bigger part of world civilization, that it's very hard for me to make comments (unsafe! poor! dirty!) on their part of the world.
Getting sales, marketing, and operational execution right is both critical and very difficult.
I'm a business owner and what amazes me, is the amount of time I have to spend selling in order to make some money.
Every time I read about a great idea or a startup, my question is thus:"Sounds great. Who's going to do the sales?" Often followed by silence.
Someone has to go out and tell people how wonderful the product/service is. You're not going to cut it with some Google Adwords because everyone does that.
I sincerely doubt that someone can progress to the level of appointment to the supreme court without having learned to recognize bullshit when they see it.
You've obviously never ready any of Harry Blackmun's opinions.
I'm from West-Europe so I have a hard time reading through the lines here. Which opinions of Harry Blackmun do you think are bullshit?
While I'm not sure if this high level design inherently affects relational databases negatively, it sure seems to be the future of data centers.
If you build apps using Google App Engine, the APIs offer you an API to BigTable, a non-relational data store. There is no relational database support.

The translations are developed using a Wiki. Their focus is on Christian works, but I think the approach would work for any literature you want widely distributed in a variety of languages.

kicked you back to another screen if you didn't complete it within a specified time. One form with 20 fields or something had a timeout of ten seconds
That's actually funny, not ridiculous!
urban dictionary = idiots making up words.
At 27 years old I am now an old fart.
UUuuh hello??! Rigoddamndiculous is a perfectly cromulent word!

I'd guess so, too. I was really only talking about the meaning of 'a blush', not the process of making one :-)
And then if they merge back together, it'll be a blush!
Parent had me confused. I'm European and love to drink wine -- apparently 'blush' means rosee wine.
Google's AppEngine is massively distributed. Be sure to encrypt the information written there, and you'll be done.
The next time your partner is on the phone during sex they might actually be looking up the next position instead of chatting with a friend.
Talking about the Kama Sutra, I assume you're in the position to actually see your partner holding a phone.
I am reticent to buy a new gaming computer simply for what amounts to a passing phase.
The underlying statement here is: "if it's a passing phase, the money will be wasted because the new PC will be gathering dust".
But actually that's totally up to yourself. If it turns out to be a passing phase, you can simply sell the computer.
Ahh if it happened to women only... *sniff* here I am, 56 years old, and the proud stallion is now a tame pony :D
Actually, some people think they have Electromagnetic hypersensitivity and they suffer from it, with complaints of headaches, constant tiredness, etc. Of course, when using a blind test the sufferers could not distinguish between an active and non-existing EM field.
Still, they suffer.
to hear a user talking about it you would have thought it was God's own OS.
I'm disappointed in you, amicusNYCL, to hear you casually spout off heresies like Ubuntu is not God's own OS. Do you realize you made Him weep??
We will have to cleanse you by fire!

Get a SOCKS capable SSH client, and you don't need to set up the tunnel for each connection.
No but now you need to
a) hope your applications support SOCKS (for instance Opera doesn't do this)
b) configure your applications accordingly
Just sayin'.
So they designed and wrote a neural network for the sole purpose of identifying a limited set of icons? Seriously?
They used a library. And it's just an algorithm.

I'm not a native English speaker; what does "I decline the encounter" mean and why is it appropriate?

I'm fairly certain that I would not WANT to get laid at most parties where video codecs are being discussed and debated.

I had a girl once who screamed OGG OGG in bed. Followed by "OD".

Wow, that must be *grabs pocket calculator* a difference of 3 gigahertz!
