I used to work at a corp office for a bunch of MRI places, and we had lots of fun with the CRTs ( wish lcds had been available then ) and the effects the magnetic fields had on them. They also had lines painted on the floors, I forget if they were to denote the 5 or 10 gauss lines. Also, we were warned about the potential for our bank cards being garbled.
I did go to university. Course, that was after I figured out the above. Graduated at 30 years of age or so. Came out of my high school having written a compiler, but that did not seem to count for much. Then, imagine my suprise when, after I was in and working, the bubble came along, and people who could recognise a computer 3 out of 4 times were in and working also. My timing sucks.:-)
If it is exploitation, then the fact that there are worse things out there does not make it any less exploitation. In fact, that is the *reason* it is exploitation.
To get it, we need fewer "managers" standing around shouting about how they dont know what they need, but the know when they need it. And they refuse to prioritize, saying "it is all equally important". ( Note, not every manager fits this shoe, but the ones that do need to start thinking ). Shortcuts come about from excessive schedule pressure.
My understanding is that that was considered strongly.
I think they decided that the Japanese would think that it was faked or otherwise rigged. And it still took the second device, 3 days later before there was a surrender decision.
Frankly, I think you are assuming rationality on the part of the Japanese military of that day and age. All my reading to date has lead me to believe that there was very little of that. I dont know if you are aware of it, but the mind games played led to Japanese soldiers staying on Pacific islands until into the 1970's still looking for the win.
Where is the burden of proof? How would proof sufficient for you be developed? Not like just anyone can walk into the places these activities might be taking place. And, finally, the news surrounding this issue seems like the smoke. Dont you think we should find out if there is a fire?
As to an alternate solution, how about we stand up for the ideals that make us "the good guys"? Stand up for and be properly critical of both Israel and the Palistinians. Respect ourselves as a country, and respect others as well.
If that were all there was too it, you would think they would pick on targets closer to their size and/or location. They have borders with many non-Islamic countries.
Quite true. And since the long range bombers still exist, I am quite puzzled about
Why Grumman was ordered to destroy the tooling for the F-14 Why the F-14 are being totally phased out of service. I know the F-14 was a much more expensive aircraft, and more maintainance intensive, but I just dont see how the F/A-18 can defend the carriers as well. And according to all I have seen, including the above link, the Tomcat can deliver more bombs and at greater range than the F/A-18.
The F/A-18 will probably out do the F-14 in a furball, you are quite right. When you have a furball near your carriers, you are in danger of losing them.
I'm an airplane buff, love the F-14, and am a programmer.
I was looking at data on the Commodore 64 ( I had not had one when they came out, we could not afford it, but I found one for free on Craigslist, so I was just looking ) and I came across the above. Google found it again for me. I cant add anything to the article, unfortunately. But very cool.
One value to be derived would be that there are alternatives to windows.
Personally, I dont think kids should be learning computers just to learn Excel, Word and Powerpoint, that they learn the basics of the machine. The sentence preceding should not be construed as saying that there is no value to learning Excel, Word and Powerpoint, before anyone jumps on me about that.
I would say, personally, were I chosing the class curriculum, put on an apple or commodore emulator on whatever minimalist OS can be found ( including freedos, or leaving win95 on the machines ( I dont know if either support such.. ) ), and let the kids learn that they control the machine, that they can program and make it do what they want. Leave the OS out of the picture for a while, then teach a variety of operating system ideas, such that they would not be lost anywhere. I note that that is probably a multiyear curriculum.
Unfortunately, someone interested in coercing a vote could insist that both tickets match by having the voter vote the "correct" way, and to pick the choosable ticket the same.

On AIX, I think it was a last 3.x version, a friend of mine
found that a "simple" chown -R from the root was quite
sufficient to bork a system.
I'm not so sure....

So, all we need now is perfect capitalism!
Where is that, I wonder?
If it is exploitation, then the fact that there are
worse things out there does not make it any less
exploitation. In fact, that is the *reason* it is
exploitation.
I find it is not so much the person who needs to be
agile, but the hiring managers.
"Oh, you have been programming for 10 years, but none
of it 'Professionally'... So sorry, I have this lamer
with a degree I will hire instead".
Hate that angle bracket sucking.
In quotes was supposed to be "All {pick subgroup} {pick verb}".
Except this time, I am not going to be a lazy westerner, I will
preview this one.
Racism is prejudice.
Prejudice is basically saying "all ",
without regard to real differences in the subgroup.
It's funny that in denouncing prejudice, you show a prejudiced
viewpoint on westerners, and "their lazy work ethic".
Look. Who cares what version control system they use. Sheesh.
True, we need more quality.
To get it, we need fewer "managers" standing around shouting
about how they dont know what they need, but the know when
they need it. And they refuse to prioritize, saying "it is all
equally important". ( Note, not every manager fits this shoe,

At what patch level?
You would have to accomodate the base system(s)
as installed from DVD/CD, all the services packs,
all the hot fixes, and all permutations thereof.
My understanding is that that was considered strongly.

was faked or otherwise rigged. And it still took the second

No. The tin foil hats will protect you.
And, as an added benefit, people can have
wrapping parties, unwrapping parties, etc, etc.
Can you prove they are not being tortured?
What happened to innocent until proven guilty?
Where is the burden of proof? How would proof
sufficient for you be developed? Not like just
anyone can walk into the places these activities
might be taking place. And, finally, the news
surrounding this issue seems like the smoke.

Stand up for and be properly critical of both
Israel and the Palistinians. Respect ourselves as
a country, and respect others as well.

"Foldy wings". :-)
Most carrier aircraft have wings that fold. Usually
they fold *up* and not back. Storage is at a premium.
heh... So *you* say....
Oh, come now! Surely the teaching staff
will be more help than that!
I am convinced they will say "Google it!".
