No, Maxwell showed (and later, the Michelson-Morley experiment verified) that the speed of light in a vacuum is constant, no matter what the observer's reference frame is. The speed of the observer and gravitational field effects do not change the speed of light, though they may affect the apparent frequency or modify the path of travel.
Do you know if this addition is from Apple or from the GNUStep people? If it's not an Apple sanctioned addition to the language, it probably won't be in the Cocoa spec.
If "Window Security" were really a Nightmare, that would mean we would eventually wake up and discover it was only a dream. Unfortunately, in this case, it simply ain't gonna happen.
I don't know about you, but for some reason I have this image of Relay MD being nothing more than a Cisco router out in the middle of a field somewhere.
Interestingly enough, the English word heathen comes from the Anglo Saxon word hoeðen whose meaning is roughly "someone who lives out in the boonies" or more simply, "uncultured".
Same here. I develop shit for embedded devices using Visual Studio IDE on Windows all day long at work. At home I have an 2GHz Athlon64 and a dual 1GHz Mac G4, the Mac is used 75% of the time, the Athlon usually sits quiet unless I need to work from home or play a game that isn't available for my Xbox or Playstation 2. I my case, I don't use my Mac because it just works or easy to use, rather it's simply because the last thing I want to do when I get home is look at more MS Windows. I just need a break at the end of the day, that's all.
HyShot did not achieve scramjet-powered flight. It was a scramjet attached to the front of a missle and was merely a test of the combustion characteristics at hypersonic speeds, it never flew by itself.
This is the test of the X-43A, there is also going to be a test of the X-43C which uses a different engine geometry and a hydrocarbon fuel that is supposed to get it up to Mach 15. That's getting close to the holy-grail Mach 24 aka escape velocity.
I am sure there is more information here: http://www.nasa.gov/missions/research/x43-main.htm l
We are already using nuclear power from the sun. Plants use the sun to create sugars -> sugars are used to make ethanol -> hydrogen is extracted from ethanol -> hydrogen is used for power... Plants are much more efficient at converting light into energy (in the form of sugar) than the most efficient solar panel ever created.
Palm OS already is already multitasking and has been this way since the first Palm OS. The original OS was built upon the AMX embedded kernel, which has preemptive multithreading, however the more recent Palm OS's are based on Palm's own multitasking kernel. The real problem is that the user events are only handled in the "UI Thread" so all GUI driven applications must run in that single thread.
A single purpose DSP based on a similar design could be used as a router or multiplexor on a high-speed network and may not require a relatively slow electrical memory bus at all.
Unfortunately for all of us "humans", corporations are considered "citizens" and are given the same legal rights, which I find to be rather distasteful...
For and update to an application library (Cocoa in this case), you don't really need to restart, you just need to quit all Cococa apps, this includes the Login Window. To accomplish this, do the following:
1. download and install the patch.
2. log out, if you can.
3. type ">console" or maybe even ">exit" in the user name field of the login window.
4. once in the console, I believe a ctl-D will restart the login window.
I believe that Mach 3.0 and BSD 5.0 are 64-bit clean. Other pieces of Mac OS X were designed to be 64-bit clean from the beginning, like IOKit (probably to support the G4's 36-bit addressing mode). A straight recompile should be fairly easy for the core OS; however, there may be complications when it comes to application libraries such as Carbon.

VB and Java faster than C? What compiler were you using?

I mapped the scroll wheel button to Expose "show all windows" function. Works really well for finding windows with a single button click.

I'm betting on Quantum Loop Gravity (or a derivative).

Actually, there was a native version of FrameMaker for Nextstep. Porting from Nextstep to OS X is pretty much a piece of cake.

Evolution is so mathematically improbable that I'm surprised that most scientists just accept it.
Apparently you've not heard about genetic algorithms, where evolution *is* math.

Those "nib" files are not Cocoa nib files, they are simply an alternative resouce format for Carbon apps with a *.nib file extension.
Don't worry about the stock price, Apple's price always drops on any kind of announcement, but in a few days it'll be way up.
According to many, IE *is* the standard. The dark ages are coming again...
Can you compile a full Linux distribution using ICC? Can you compile Linux using ICC targetted at multiple processor architectures?

How does this affect BSD which is not a System V clone? Does SCO have any kind leverage on that OS?
