in the uk in 1971-72 a docu-film was made by the GPO - the telecommunication monopoly of post - telegraph, telephone in britain at the time about 1990 and beyond. well there was a slight ten year lag but its probably the best thing i have seen. it was SPOT on. WLAN, broadband, commodity CPU power , software services etc . pages cell phones. smart workstations' e commerce - remote data -=[ie web being useful to ppl] by 1990-2000. cant actually remeber all of it ten yearws optimistic but fantastic. no universal panacea thing either -- it was with knowing nods that technology might actually make your life harder -- less convenient or make you work harder not smarter.
erm i dont know. but i know the best place to ask location -specifuc wise and practicality wise is www.modshack.co.uk alot of practically knowledgable peeps
the propsitions are valid and prehaps not in conflict as you suggest.
but the paranoid remark and snob closing comment made you come you come off as elitist and insensitive. maybe i projected my own elitist guilt [from owning a house] on to your comments. i often decry new developments [that arent valuable due to 'new design' or newer greener/ life enhancing tech] over older architecture that should have been preserved. i have never gone so far to think that only one type of development due to style or relative value [therefore indicating the socio-economic bracket of the occupants] should be restricted to their own respective areas. im not saying you're wrong.. how would i know? maybe it is for the best. but i do know my conscience tells me it is not right.
you have gated communities. quiet suburbs from horrid social restrictions. we have them too. and what we dont yet have.. will have because your attitudes are acceptable. it stopped being about architecture and more about who lives where and how it affects your property investment. thats what i really thought and did not make obvious by not quoting this "If you want to put up a trailer home to save costs, then you shouldn't be living in this neighborhood but in the thousands of other places that such a home would be allowed"
for the record, i am a student who bought a house cause living in half way decent mortgaged house costs less [by a long way ] than renting a shithole! thanks for contributing to the debate as it forced me think about my own attitudes and what conclusions one may eventually draw from them.
You might not be able to comprehend this, but there's actually character and culture here in the states, some of which is architectural. And it's not a conspiracy to want to preserve the living history.
i just bought a beautiful house. your attitude makes want to burn it down to the ground. thanks.
more thought, open it to those who cant and build more houses, paper houses shanties. whatver it takes to build as many 'good enough ' houses as quickly as possible.
how about open pricing? breakdown of the costs and where the money will go. i know its a business not some charity but i would already pay for this card simply for what it could be and what it potentially represents and to register my vote with market forces. "i support open sourced designs implementing open standards at 100% compliance."
but i would also pay a little more for other things... 'price banding' eg we made this card £10 more expensive to pay for further R&D on the next revision [which may be discounted to early adopters] or whatver. or £5 a month [upfront] for great [open source] driver update / techsupport delivered red carpet style.
you know?
choice is the potential here. ot will pave the way for colloboration with the big boys and open ATI/nVidia products could follow 20 years from now when existing issues patents licence nda may be irrelevant [ie the tech has moved on]
i think they will be . my experience of their it subcontractors and their internal it team would lead me to belive they will hnce applying for a job as till operator. also i failed to mention how great the actual snoops spwftare is.
i was going post as AC but i dont want people not taking this seriously. i have had to research this technology deeply for legitimate and non legitimate applications for different clients. the reason there is little info or programs or source code -- as mentioned in an issue of 2600.
it is because that there is alot of poor win32 closed source software out there costing $1000 upwards!
all pooorly written in VB and the like by programmers whose pooor coding is more than obvious once a button is pressed or a menu selected.
ramcwin , rencode 2000 being obvious candidates.
it seems this is one of those few areas in software applications where even on the vast breadth of the internet a conspiracy of supression of knowledge . non open code. [not that the code is worth anything to learn from] in order to force the sale of ridiclous 1000 dollar licences for extremely poor code. my project i s free open source mag stripe oswftare compatible with as many reders and writesr as possible including portable code and libraries to embed in dumb terminals for people wanting to make thin open source terminal clients for EPOS systems.
i hate poor elite pricey specialised software.
for instance in a few months a large electronics chain has moved over to linux for their epos. i will make sure their "custom" software does not violate the gpl. [i just applied for a job !!]
the only truly disturbing thing is that even in england computer science has forked into 'computing' which takes that approach. c++ is only used to teach coding basics and then java and uml taught by rote and even computer science is becoming like that. this i could understand in the corporate sponsored market driven university system in usa. where the big guys calll the shots and therefore only the buzzwords are espoused and the student is a client and therefore wants the most employability for his education dollar and sees that the computing trends and buzz technologies are his / her priority.
whatver happend to academia and sheer interst? doies everone really want to be a technician or batch coder?
* Okay, maybe that 1970s remark was a little sarcastic, but with all the media consolidation by the same megacorporations who buy and sell the elite of the american government, can you really describe it as the fourth branch of government anymore?
yeah. its the fourth branch of the adminstration in power which is the main branch of your corporate elite.
erm israel is terrorist state that assasinates so called militant leaders via rocket attacks in the street killing innocent bystanders and bulldozing the homes of civillians for land usurpers. you get a grip!
you have to display a tax disc in your windscreen window it has date on . its yearly costs sth like 120 GBP per annum. otherwise you get fined and could lose your licence
in the uk it is illegal to use , make or sell or give away biodiesel. as there is a huge amount of tax levy on fuel in the uk. they accuse you of tax dodging!!!
not paying tax on something you made or got for free!
the gnu hurd kernel is exactly this. a herd of gnus running on top of mach is what they have been aiming for . it still isnt finished or ready! can you imagine debugging a microkernel set? i can barely comprehend what successfully debugging it would entail. my uninformed guess is that complex states are the main problem. ie how do you know that just because the behaviour is gone?.. or that you ve trully debugged it completely? how do you know where the bug truly was? was it in that modul or micro kernel. was it a combination of both? etc?
i would assume that you would need some sort of expert system built into your debugger that can do analyses heurisically as well as run probability checks after step executing the code hundreds of times in different ways.
erm moores law is not a law its on aboservation about a trend in the commercial development of microprcessors which the manufactirresr adhere to as it is their entire revenue model. its not a physical rule. the guy who came up with it set up intel for gawds sake.
"I consistently try to use Open Source technology whenever possible (I fully support the sociology behind the movement)"
doesnt she mean ideology, surely?'
the first time i ever try to read an article and i am defeated in the first paragraph!

fantastic stuff!
you are right.
but you are simple.
combinations of people?
like liberal book clubs who object to the war?

no you odnt you moron. each cuecat would transmit own id with the varcaode as a means of tracking people. ergo each cuecat is relatively unique.

as a friend of bill joy it is good to see that the oft repeated post *bill joy is dying. netcraft confirms it* did not come true.
urm in the uk we pay a tax called road tax
you have to display a tax disc in your windscreen window it has date on . its yearly costs sth like 120 GBP per annum.
otherwise you get fined and could lose your licence
in the uk it is illegal to use , make or sell or give away biodiesel. as there is a huge amount of tax levy on fuel in the uk. they accuse you of tax dodging!!!

erm moores law
is not a law
its on aboservation about a trend in the commercial development of microprcessors
which the manufactirresr adhere to as it is their entire revenue model.
its not a physical rule.
the guy who came up with it set up intel for gawds sake.
