As a perl programmer for the past 5 years, the only ones that don't stick in my head (along with their relative precedence to whatever else I'm doing) are the -x operators.
is half photochem half digital these days. They've been using a computer for years to adjust the printing colors. It's pretty badass that this guy is using film so large though.
I was in a hospital for depression. one day playing cards with some of the other kids, one guy stood up, started shouting at me and throwing things at me. the staff took him to his room and calmed him down...the problem was that my voice was the same as a voice in his head and I freaked him out. I think it freaked me out a bit too.
your arrogance and lack of RF knowledge show through your linux pride. You can setup subnets with wireless networks, you can use multiple base transmitters from the main internet uplink, and like I said, using directional antennas from each house vs. builtin dlink/netgear/yourbrandhere antenna that your little linux world consists of would make generating interference extremely difficult. There are people doing ~3mi uplinks w/ 18dB yagis in my area without ANY trouble, and I'm on the edge of silicon valley.

says who? Use directional antennas for each house, like a pringles can, running 802.11g. That will cut down on interference and increase reliability. I do videoconferencing on my laptop all the time over a.11g link. And if the neighborhood kids are malicious enough to try and bring down a wireless network, what makes you think they wouldn't try snipping cables or a regular ol' DoS attack on the neighborhood?
noone has mentioned wireless yet. Requires no house-house wiring, RF technology can be changed/upgraded in the future without having to upgrade house-house wiring like you would if say in 5 years cat10 is required for the most speed. Just swap your radio when the next 1Gbit wireless technology is here. There are several well documented neighborhood wireless projects out there.
I see you are a shining example of the point you are trying to make. I've never seen such use of slashes in a single sentance outside of the context of unix filesystems.
You do make a good point, that students are not properly motivated to expand their knowledge. That can be fixed not necessarily with more teachers but with parents and teachers that can provide proper incentive for students to actually WANT to learn, rather than feeling forced to learn.
I just thought ya know, if it was a journalism class it'd be great. but it looks to me the target audience was in the engineering department. a legal term paper in eng...i expect more detailed info as opposed to some crap that's being pushed to USA Today or a student rag.
short bibliography, and you don't express any original ideas. No wonder all our jobs are being outsourced. Anyone can summarize a few usenet posts and throw in enough filler and footnotes to make it 12 pages. I'm sorely unimpressed.
I couldn't agree more. Last summer I was working with a satellite link from a third world country. Now the pipe on those guys is pretty big, we were working with 3MBps. 24Mbps. However, latency on the tcp packets from the south pacific to space and back to sunny CA is such a large problem it slowed an asynchronous transfer to about 20KBps. I had to write a special segmented upload package to be able to send video feeds sychronously and maximize the bandwidth utilization.
In other words, bandwidth will do you zero good with a traditional tcp/ip stack if your latency is too high.
I myself am a postgres diehard, and push it heavily at my new job that is based on mysql and i think nothing is wrong with postgres but many things are wrong with mysql. Anyway, to respond to your statement: many people are incapable of performing database maintenance tasks. they can do a couple inserts and selects via php because someone wrote an article at phpbuilder on how to make a web based contact manager and that's it. No real brain to speak of that can figure things out for themselves or read db docs. He is an idiot, but some idiots just can't save themselves and you should pity them, not be angered by them;)
it should not be so arbitrary, but overtime should stay in place to guarantee quality of life for the workforce. Otherwise the country would be full of IT sweatshops.

I wonder how much land space is used up by oil fields, refineries, etc

what beowulf clusters are like in utah?
fake tv shows like star trek are much more realistic :)
I agree, STE is better than any of the crap on fox, besides the cartoons of course.

Perhaps the problem is that the capitalist model is in the midst of a decline. Similar to the roman empire.
I completely agree. If I hadn't already written in this thread I would mod you up.

word :) good job then :)

so basically, you're saying no taxation without representation? seems even global empires must observe the rules of karma or pay the consequences ;)
(sarcastic/cynical humor, please take it as such.)
a freakin webcam? hello 1995?
my code is self documenting, so hmmf.
I think your problem is that it was java code, vs. something readable like perl.

what a scary thought...what if the human race is just some alien's way of storing their pr0n collection? talk about life being a joke!
