If it didn't require any user control (for the cameras at least). I mean why isn't the recording speed tied to the speed of the car? (or is it?) what need do you have to manipulate the cameras manually. Instead if the car is stuck in traffic, just stop recording. If the car is moving faster, increase the fps.
What purpose does the game controller have? Are the drivers allowed to track hotties? or is it for focusing in on billboards for corporate sponsors? Are they offering street view adwords or something?
How is this google vs apache? I don't understand (its early and I'm feeling fuzzy headed so forgive me). Google is using an apache license to release this... other than that I don't see asf involvement in the project. Maybe I'm missing something here? This article talks about all the involved parties signing an additional agreement separate from the license agreeing not do what MS did to Java before being sued.
The funny thing it is *inevitable* *you* will reach this age one day...HaHaHa
Hopefully. There is another option one that most people would do just about anything to avoid. So yeah, if you're luck you *will* reach that age.
I'm guessing that your brain will let you perceive X amount of time in y amount of time (with x > y) but you wouldn't be able to do actively do anything such as code new software or have new thoughts. Would be wonderful for schooling, learning or watching movies, but I doubt you could create anything in such a state. It has to be violating some law of nature... otherwise I'd say plugin and never unplug.
You've seen David. You've seen the universe. You've seen the chisel. You've seen the laws of nature. You haven't seen either Michaelangelo or God. You believe in the former because you have been told that he existed.
No. I accept that Michaelangelo existed. The acceptance of his existence doesn't require anything extraordinary. I've seen others carve statues using chisels, the process is understood and repeatable. There is no magic involved. If someone takes me to their backyard and shows me a statue and tells me Michaelangelo sculpted it... I'd probably call them a liar.
Who modded the original off-topic/troll post insightful?
It is more like seeing the statue David, seeing the chisel and then denying the existence of sentient plate of spaghetti that created the universe. No where in the night sky is the implication that some invisible-omniscient-omnipotent being is responsible.
Will this apply to the ipod touch as well? I really would like to be able to read maps/books offline on one. If there was an app to let me take websites or google maps and pdfs and store them locally to an ipod touch it might be my next mp3 player.
I've always felt that these lines shouldn't be owned by a corporation for exactly these reasons. Just like roads and natural resources they should be managed by "the people" (ie the government). Now I'm fairly distrustful of the government and would be a typical libertarian nut, but I feel certain resources need to be managed at a national level: radio frequencies, roads, power lines, the air we breath, waterways any sort of national resource (which includes things requiring eminent domain to construct).
Maybe in this instance AT&T or whoever the "Big providers" are shouldn't be allowed to sell straight to the consumer? and only to smaller isp's?
That doesn't answer the question. You still need a job to learn "on the job." Its quite difficult to be self taught if you aren't motivated by a project (not impossible just less likely). I know I've learned more in my 4 years of experience than I did in school and more often than not my "superiors" weren't much help in advancing my skills (often I think they were a hindrance). Still with out the jobs I wouldn't have learned much. Hell programming is pretty simple I think the problem is lack of engineering/design. It seems to often people are just given tasks to program and no one has thought of an overall design. Design ends up being and ad-hoc process given to programmers who are either out of their league or ill-prepared.
Is there anything stating you can't offer your vote for sale? I can't recall anything saying you can't do that... just that it would be impossible for anyone to verify you followed your part of the contract.
I fail to see a difference. Your ownership of land is by way of governments permission, just as ownership of all the airspace that radio waves etc travel through. Try telling Delta that they aren't allowed to fly over your house, or Verizon that they can't broadcast their cell signal through your property with out paying you. Eminent domain is not a forced sale of anything, its the government taking ownership of something (if they're nice they'll offer to pay for it). The government has claimed ownership of the airspace in the US and sold rights to broadcast through it at certain frequencies. I would say its the same as ED.
RADIO BROADCASTS?! WTF are you smoking to think that you need eminent domain for that? Transmitter sites that TV and Radio stations used haven't been acquired by eminent domain
You try running your own pirate radio station, or just broadcasting whatever you want on the airwaves. You won't be allowed to will you? why b/c you have to buy the rights from the goverment? what exactly would you be buying the rights to? radio frequencies? who owns them ? the government? on what grounds? the grounds that they belong to the people... So yeah I'll lump in the fact the government has just taken control of the "airwaves" and sells it to the highest bidder as eminent domain.
in the "right of way" areas.
What is that? Sounds like eminent domain...
This is why the backbones and transmission lines should not be in private hands. You can't build any sort of back bone, main thorough fare (even radio broadcasts) with out Eminent domain. And if eminent domain is used to construct something it should belong to everyone equally not just corporations.
There wasn't before?
Solaris is definitely affordable (more so than OSX), I don't think its difficult to use definitely not for anyone looking to use unix.
Either way the Pointy-haired bosses of the world will be all over it, so many admins will have no choice
Really what makes you think that? Pointy-haired bosses don't get excited over apple. They get excited over windows. I don't see how a "unix-designation" is going to change that.
I've been downloading songs to my windows laptop but before that I found a Java based download manager and had no trouble setting it up on my linux desktop. I don't believe its officially supported by emusic or that you will find it on their site but a quick google should turn it up.
It worked fine, in fact I think it might have worked better than the official one as the names of the files were less verbose ( artist/album/#_songtitle.mp3 instead of artist/ablbum/artist_album_#_songtitle.mp3).
This is nonsense. If you're business model is to develop, shrink wrap and sell software of course you are not going to choose to use GPL code. If however you are in the business of performing a service or producing real products and happen to need specialized software and develop your software in house, GPL is wonderful. The cost can't be beat.
I have the joy of working with both (SGML in the Airforce and XML in the army). It was always my understanding that XML was inspired by SGML but it is NOT a subset/sgml standard (HTML is). Xml documents do not require DTD to be valid. I thought SGML did (its been a long time, I think you might be able to specify the dtd inside the sgml document, but you still needed it).

Wow the world you live in must be so much more interesting than the one the rest of us live in.

"almost as easy" Are you saying that J2me is easier than this? or... are you comparing to a different embedded sdk?
blah... this was supposed to be in response to someone else and not the main article... I am out of it this morning sorry.

So... how is this google vs apache?
And you don't think someone is going to construe that as suspicious?
You're probably being watched twice as closely now.
So what version of Java? Micro Edition? or full blown Java?
