..and notice how the intersection - and all other map data - shifts about 20 meters or so..
Deliberate Errors are introduced to stop other copying the maps and are used as a trap in case anyone should copy their maps without acknowledgement. British newspapers reported in March 2001 that the Automobile Association (AA) had agreed to pay Ordnance Survey (Britain's national mapping agency) a sum of GBP 20,000,000 (then worth US$ 29,000,000) in an out-of-court settlement for illegally copying their maps.
Sometime errors are introduced
You could compare it to programming. What are your first steps when you sit down to write a program? Yes, yes, of course there are doodles, sketches and diagrams. But when you get down to coding, I hope that you don't just code any old program and then go back later to fix compilation errors. I hope that you'll make sure it's clean, well-structured code that makes it easy to improve (as opposed to "correct") later.
If I compare writing a document to programming. I would do a top-down design, get all the main ideas down, (the function and structures), then fill out the code, (the grammer).
I would not start the code (grammer) until all the basic structure is in place.
I been using my gmail account from my phone for a while. Its the normal gmail.comnot the m.gmail.com version. It is just like using a non-java browser works very well and uses very little data ~1M per month.
Basically SCOOT (Split Cycle Offset Optimisation Technique) is adaptive and responds automatically to traffic fluctuation. It slipts traffic into platoons.
London,UK runs mainframe computers to change the Traffic Signal timing every second.
...trespassing. The mother has invited a new person to...
Very good analogy, never thought of it this way,
I am not sure if quite as clear cut as that, what about forced entry (rape), What about if the visitor invited into the property damaged the health of the mother - even risked the life of the mother...
What about if it 'only' going to cause mental health problem to the landlord ?
Predictive text input enables fast and easy writing. Instead of pressing each key one, two or three times, press it just once. The text input software decodes the keystrokes and scans the internal dictionary for matching words.
Hence HELLO is just 43556 not 4433555555666
Most people in the UK use this method. I can type about 20-30 words per minute on a phone using predictive text. Ideal for sending short messages in long boring meeting,
Full code is in the CVS, nice GUI, you can either/home,/home and configs or everything back to the LiveCD. Save Incremental changes or full changes. CD-Persistent allows the use of a CD-r or even a better CD-RW. For further details see the HowTo with screenshots. (Disclaimer - I am the main developer for this module)
I was just discussing this earlier about whether Knoppix could do just that..
Morphix a modular based which basically takes away the hard work of re-mastering a Knoppix CD
The base, the part based upon Knoppix contains the kernel, kernel modules, hardware detection, etc. This base is left untouched. You can either a change a mainmod or add lots of minimodules to make different liveCDs
I submitted a note on the Knoppix mailing list, in May 2004 offering to add this code/feature to Knoppix, but did not get much feedback.
I feel I was the first to have a liveCD save data back to its own CD - all code GPL'ed, buy hey that development, he who shouts the loudest.
You could try a cheap laptop, with cd-drive, Tv-out, connection to internet (LAN/Wifi) and convert it into a Internet Kiosk. With FireFox or Stallion. (Details and Demo).
The reason I suggested this option, is for low-maintenance, all that is required is to switch on the computer. The operating system is read-only so can not be changed - nothing to break. The homepage of firefox can be perminatly set to your website.
You can then set up your website remotely, have each webste automatically progres to the next page.
If internet connection is not possible, you can add wepages locally to the cd set the homepage to the local index and mail and new cd everytime.
Once you have it powered you cluster, have a look at Clusterix, a live-cd distro with openMosix. You can test your power supply and hardware w/out a full install.
And Chris writes "Gnoppix 0.8.1 now appears to be Ubuntu Linux based. "
The Ubuntu LiveCD and the Gnoppix LiveCD are based upon Morphix, which basically takes away the hard work of re-mastering a Knoppix CD. The base, the part based upon Knoppix contains the kernel, kernel modules, hardware detection, etc. This base is left untouched. You can either a change a mainmod or add lots of minimodules to make different liveCDs
The Ubuntu LiveCD is built using one of Morphix Tools Module Maker. Feed you XML file into module maker and out pops your mainmodule for the LiveCD.
There are a range of tools Morphix tools available to make a LiveCD. Such as Module Makeribuild and TROM. It is even possible to save you files, configuration and setting to the Morphix LiveCD you using using CD persistant, ready for next boot up. Did I mention the GUI Morphix installer ?
I for one hope there will be no flying cars. If space for vehicles can be divided into three dimensions there is no need for traffic lights, to divide the 2-d space.
I'm then out of a job and I sure everyone else is *keen* to keep traffic lights.

Good description of UTC and SCOOT

Problems: None
Boring when things just work.
There is a excellent liveCD ready for this, based on firefox.Or the locked-down kiosk version LiveKiosk.

I have used predictive text on a Motorola phone as well. This feature, in one form or another is on all(?) European phones.

Another LiveCD based on Morphix.
But where is it ?
I can never find it.
Sounds cool, have you any pictures ? Is this just a physical keychain or is the memory still useable ?

The Tony Martin case, shot two burglars, killed one, convicted and jailed for murder. UK law is a fine beast.
Anybody want to have a go at the Control Panel ?
