Why would they announce a new Office at a developer keynote? That doesn't make any sense. That said, Ballmer being there for any reason doesn't make sense either.
He said horizontal Gs as in you're sitting upward and being thrusted forwards. Pulling Gs in a fighter jet is downward Gs which causes the blood to rush out of your brain.
This has nothing to do with the iPhone. It has everything to do with AT&T. Tethering is available in most other countries with the 3.x version of iPhone and has been for something like 8-10 months. My subscription with Rogers in Canada allows tethering, 6GB/month for $30
I do web development at work and mainly use Firefox with Firebug and a plugin(forget the name) that allows outlining of table cells & whatnot. I usually keep the same 5 tabs open all the time and FF will consume close to 1GB after a few days of page refreshes. Also, once it approaches this 1GB usage, it will generally crash very soon.
You might want to actually read past the title of things you are linking to. This supposed replacement for Flash Apple is developing is based off of HTML and javascript, therefore making your 2nd paragraph utter nonsense.
He is being pretty selfish calling this decision an overreaction IMO.
As a pilot, I do know some of the complexities of trying to manage thousands of flights into and out of an area.
All commercial flights will have to fly through cloud at least some of the time and places like England are known for their cloudy days. There is no conceivable way that any air traffic controller would be able to tell which clouds have ash and redirect planes around them. Redirecting planes around every single cloud would not be practical.
Also, the comment about some countries having clear blue skies shows that whoever wrote that isn't thinking like a pilot at all. When flying an airplane, it's the pilot's responsibility to check the suitability of the destination airport for landing BEFORE leaving. If they were allowed to fly, then you are now placing an even bigger responsibility on the pilots to somehow know whether or not the arriving airport or alternate airports are suitable to land at. Not only that but they would have to check all the area in-between to make sure it's safe. Air traffic control is certainly not responsible for routing traffic around all clouds, because in the end it's the pilot's sole responsibility to ensure the safety of the flight.
Now think about that situation for a single flight and how many variables there are, then multiply that by the thousands of flights that would have occurred in the time the airspace was closed. Can anyone guarantee there would not have been any problems? Of course no one could so it's much better to just be cautious and close the airspace until the ash is clear.
At my job they like you to use getters/setters for everything, even inside the class when accessing private members. To me this is pointless and a waste of time requiring a method call when you really don't need one. I can understand the reason for encapsulation where you want to protect certain things from outside access but to have to use this.getter() rather than this.variable inside the class really makes me want to puke. IF java wasn't garbage collected and the getter/setter actually did something rather than just setting a pointer then I could understand using the setter/getter inside the class.
Acorn is good for some things & can be used in place of Photoshop in a lot of situations, but I don't think the author Gus Mueller would be putting in that much time to make a true Photoshop replacement. It'd have to be bought out by some other company first with the resources to work on it.
WWDC 2007 Apple said both Carbon and Cocoa would be going fully 64 bit. WWDC 2008 they said only Cocoa would be going fully 64 bit all the way to the GUI layer. I was there, I heard this first hand. In this instance I'm not surprised if companies tended to believe that Apple would update Carbon to be fully 64 bit. On the other hand, I would be surprised if Adobe didn't have any inside information before everyone else on this since they are such a major player.
I think maybe the better way to put it is that the Mac good for more than just multimedia now. Often you couldn't get some types of software and the major players for publishing and graphics were all still on the Mac. Now there are many more reasons to use the Mac, not just for multimedia and graphics.
That doesn't have anything to do with the fact that pre Flash 10.1 beta, the Windows version was still more efficient than the Mac version. Flash on OS X sucks & everyone knows it. It's not just Flash video that sucks either.
If the KHTML devs don't want someone using their code then why did they license it the way they did? Why do people complain about companies using open source code and then making it better?
Um, yeah I've done that on my 3G and if you try and run Fring in the background, the phone slows to a crawl. The 3G and 1st gen iPhone don't have the memory to support more than about 3 applications at the same time. This is not counting all the resident daemons running.
Are you seriously fucking complaining that Apple used an OPEN SOURCE PROJECT for their own OPEN SOURCE PROJECT? You can't have it both ways, either keep it open source or keep it closed source but complaining about someone using OPEN SOURCE is the biggest joke I've ever heard.
I always wondered how far does this go. We know atoms are made of quarks, we don't know what quarks are made of. If the God particle is made up of even smaller parts, what are those parts made of? This is a total brain fuck but fun to think about.
None of those foods you listed are good for you anyways. Stick to actual food like meats, rice, vegetables, potatoes etc. It's pretty hard to mess up those foods although I'm sure someone is trying.
It's pretty well known that teenagers have a different biological clock that starts later in the day and ends later in the day as well when compared to adults. This just proves that even more.

How dare you come into the conversation with factual information! Don't you know you're not supposed to do that on slashdot? ;)

That's because in the UK, all the electrons flow on the wrong side of the trace so it costs more.

Yeah, and how come I can't run XBox games on the PS3? F*cking Sony, they should just support it because I want it.
Yeah, out of the 170,000 apps, the fart apps make up a significant percentage, NOT

"Now we just need to figure out how to change people's DNA on the fly."
Apparently all it really takes is a few daily hyposprays to keep the alien DNA at bay and revert your original genome.
