I'm old enough to have had a a subscription to COMPUTE!'s Gazette. The time was when boys and men typed their games into the computer line by line. I was co-sysop of the first Commodore 64 BBS in the DC metro area for a computer store. Eventually it had four C64s with modems which were networked with one floppy controller that had 8 floppy drives. This was only possible due to some kind of custom cartridge that implemented a network, built by the person who wrote the BBS and an after market drive which actually had Floppy 0 and Floppy 1 for each numbered drive.
And I'm old enough to have forgotten the store and BBS's name.
The original Arduino is for 'noobs' as well as knowledgeable geeks, especially new users who are not normally drawn to using electronics and it caters to them unlike some who disrespect them and make entry into hardware hacking something many avoid. Not quite as bad as linux fundamentalist geeks but close. I'm glad for them and every other maker out there.
The Arduino team started with a fairly simple idea and it's working well. There are more powerful versions coming. I'd not realized they have an Arduino Due and other offerings coming. http://diydrones.com/profiles/blogs/arm-arduino-coming
I'm sure the Raspberry PI creators won't have any problems with 'noobs'.
I just tried to compile it and it squeeled and died. I use 64 bit Fedora so 32bit systems may 'just work'.

As it the compile fails add in the i686 development version of the library it's crying for. There is no static version of zlib so you'll have to grab the source, compile it and copy zlib.a to/usr/lib
it's almost as if you're actually purchasing a token foodstuff of purely symbolic value to justify spending time in a place Other Than Home with wifi access, and the merchants are in pricing competition over that time, not over the token food item.
That is EXACTLY the business model of Starbucks. They provide burned rubber, HFCS, fat, water and time.
Pick your own places are marvelous. I've had blueberries from Michigan farms that do pick your own and locally blackberries. Nothing from stores compares. I still want some Saskatoons.:)
From Wikipee: According to U.S. NCRP reports, population exposure from 1000-MWe power plants amounts to 490 person-rem/year for coal power plants and 4.8 person-rem/year for nuclear plants during normal operation, the latter being 136 person-rem/year for the complete nuclear fuel cycle.[16]
I'm not sure how to ask the question. Do I ask how much radioactive material is emitted by both or how much radiation might be gotten from a plant based on distance from it. Or both.
Agreed. We did an in house design of one and just the engineering costs added about $500 to each unit when spread out over 30,000 units. We most likely will not sell that many but it's a goal and the figure used to do costing. We used our own in house code which is very mature. We're going with an already made and industry certified ( we need too many certs but this means we only have to pay to get it certified for shipboard use) Atom processor based touch screen which is larger, has more features and is about 10x faster than our in house design. Since there are at least 10 vendors of similar products we won't be locked into the architecture of the in house design, porting the firmware will not add to much cost and these are *less* money than our in house design if engineering costs for the final product are figured in.
Extracts from some plants. Horseradish extract is one of a family of http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lachrymator So I was exaggerating. Some varieties of horseradish, ginger and mustard are pretty potent.
I'm sorry I missed it. As long as peppers are used, no blister agents allowed, I'm game to try about any dish a restaurant feels safe to serve. The only thing I can't do any longer is eat habaneros raw in any quantity. To many years with my good friend Helicobacter Pylori means my insides are now troubled by them.

Who? I'm baffled by this as...who is this?
No really.
22 years you say?
I should KNOW them.
Ah well.

$34.00 .NET ;)
It has an AT91SAM7X512 Arduino shield compatible. I've not checked if anyone has added this to the Arduino IDE yet but you can always use
So what did it DO and does it get a jury of it's peers or at least a 50/50 human/robot mix?
That sounds like most slashvertisments.
This fixed all the rendering problems I have been having with the GPL radeon driver.

The Saskatchewan fruit industry http://www.saskfruit.com/ would benefit greatly by this.

Now I need to find some Saskatoon berries. Which are grown in the area. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amelanchier_alnifolia
I just need to wait a couple of months for ver13! Then I wait every two months for 15, 19, 27, 38, 64, 129, 300, 1025 .....
Hell I think I'll wait for V 1025, maybe they'll have fixed the memory leaks and quit shitting on extensions and plugins by then.
Publisher in general. Book readers need their book crack.
You poor corprat slave you!

I love one authors take on this. The novel is Dykstra's War if you're interested.

I think that is a fail as both go to a login page. Any /. 'article' which points to NYT is a fail from the start.

Ruby and others in a browser, not so revolutionary now but interesting.

TCL in a browser, if it were integrated it would be more relevant.

I doubt gawk, perl, bash scripting or others will run in a browser soon.
I want to get a grant from the NAACP!
They cut it into a small piece and a large piece then made them incompatible.
It's inebriated to have two opposing versions of the same version...or ... what?
