As someone who use to work in health care, (now searching for a new career) I think its getting harder to interpret your doctor's response, not that they listen less (its a profession that has always bred arrogance) But, they have to consider what insurance is likely to cover, as well as risks of lawsuits. The doctors may be biting thier tongues- because they are not given time or training to explain how insurance proceedures dictate treatment in each case. After all as Bones would say, "I'm a doctor Jim, not a..."
I toured Scandinavia shortly after graduating college, and was shocked to hear a Norwegian grad student was not only not paying for school, but actually getting a small stipend to live off while he continued his education. The American situation is, however only a "problem" for individual young Americans. From the perspective of American companies, corps and gov't; keeping talent local is a good thing.
I recently saw a review for Stephen Greenblat's "Will in the World: How Shakespeare Became Shakespeare". While I was in school, it was a cliche that S. would have worked in television if he lived in the 20th century. But I wonder what would he would be doing in the 21st. Maybe it would be this?
The original post doesn't taken sleep habits and general health into account. Too bad, because there's more research and statistics on how these affect productivity. But, what is often shown with sleep and daily energy levels is that there are really large differences between individuals, and I suspect the same is true for concentration levels.
An obscure group from California provides us around the Charles River with a perenial theme song. Anyways up until a couple of years ago people were indeed advised to have a tetnus shot if they happened to fall in. But the river has been cleaned up quite a bit and has recently been declared clean enough (from bacteria) to swim in. Considering the old maze of poorly documented drainage pipes into the Charles from different municipalities, this is quite an accomplishment. So I imagine there's hope for St John's, too!
I agree with you on all counts. Novell's acquisition of Ximian and SUSE should also help continue making package installation on linux easy and manageable. Of course the/. posting of the Computerworld article insinuated that Chris Stone single-handedly championed open source software, when the actual article suggested he only favored a certain approach, Etyenne.;->
Tools will make it easier to hire and fire programmers (and outsource for them), and they'll give middle management more control (or at least marketed that way.) Whoopee! What a Brave New World!
I seem to remember that XXY creatures are plagued with all sorts of health problems, and "developmental disorders" in addition to sterility. I wonder if this is also true of the "fused embryo" cats?
A horror/comedy done like "Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow." Like a digitally re-animated "Re-Animator." Its time to bring campy gore into the 21st century, and I'd love to see the Evil Dead crew involved in it.
How about re-doing the whole movie with digital animation. After cutting and pasting between Evil Dead II and Army of Darkness, they could take the whole process a step further, intertwining footage with digital effects. Yes, it is gratuitous geekiness, but why not!
You're not proposing a racial theory here. Its relatively small country where power and wealth concentrated in a very small percentage of people. Surprise! A quick search on the net and you've found evidence, and there's plenty more. BTW- The UN has done a global survey measuring corruption in business in different countries. The US was "somewhat corrupt," with the Scandanvian countries being among the least corrupt.
Huh? how is logo good for BASIC?
A couple of years ago Starlogo was being developed to model complex group behaviors (such as swarming, birds flocking, fish schools) at Tufts University (with some help from MIT) Compare StarLogo to Visual Basic or any other current "basic." Maybe you're making a joke by quoting early childhood education texts from 20 years ago. You are joking, aren't you?
Of course, but you're not neccessarily an "advocate." I'm not sure that Novell, or more specifically, Stone, is promoting open source for anything other than self-interest, which is also fine and OK, but I don't consider it "Advocacy," especially when there are so many who advocate open source without ever hoping to receive financial benefit. I'm glad you're an open source businessman, and you certainly can do good things for Free (or "Free"?) Software, but there's not much you can do for me, and I can't judge you're contributions based soley on you're
business decisions.
I doubt anyone cares at this point, but I just wanted to point out that I dislike the term "advocate" being abused. And as a CONSUMER and not a STOCKHOLDER I'd rather maximize freebies. Goodness or badness or relative merits for "OSS" are besides the point, and I've been given no reason to think Novell would have, or will, contribute any more to open source without this guy, the "advocate"
I had a long talk with a Sears manager once about flat prices. Apparently Sears tried flat pricing, and they started losing a lot of money, enough to cancel the program and return to tradtitonal Sales fairly quickly. The Sears customer base may have had different expectations than Walmart, but generally people are willing to pay more for certain items if they think they have opportunities to find really good bargains. Its sort of a gamblers' mentality-
I wish I had read thisarticle when it came out. Even Fink looks like its committed to moving on to 10.3 I'm reconsidering buying new macs, because its may be seem and reasonable to charge for upgrades, its support for older versions I'm looking for
The text game had a lot of humor, and included scratch 'n sniff cards. The humor did get in the way of gameplay, though. The lame jokes plainly outnumbered the good, and the "sicker" jokes got tired very quickly. Games should have a good sense of humor, not be a single joke that a game revolves around. We have enough movies that do that.
Even just reading the article, it sounds, at best, Stone was a "fan" or "enthusiast" not an "advocate." It doesn't hurt to remember that its flaky idealists who championed and continue to advocate opensource/free software. Its nice to have mainstream business understand the benefits, but these guys have different agendas- its "Evolution", not "Revolution," after all.
"Mr. Stone was instrumental in pushing Novell toward a strategy of capturing value from open-source software, as opposed to other members of management maybe more inclined toward giving away Linux to fuel demand for [Novell's] other offerings"
As a potential user, and not a stockholder, his leaving doesn't sound like bad news. He pushed a Red Hat-like strategy vs IBM style strategy? "Respected open-source advocate?" Sounds like he was a businessman making business decisions.
I think the networks had an interest in making the election look closer than it was (and by extension Zorgby, too) Perhaps more people stayed up, like you did, to watch the results precisely because of the reported closeness of the race. As far as tinfoil hats- just because one paranoid, it doesn't mean somebody isn't out to get you- The deception may be more subtle, and from a different source, but I wouldn't let the press off scott-free
Fox news on yahoo? I think this post is a joke, but I'm kinda too sickened that Fox broadcasts at all to laugh about it. Are you trying to get them slashdotted? Are you a Murdoch publicist? Maybe you should stop pimping Murdoch's *ick, go home and reconsider your life.
There's always an appeal to wrecking havoc
instead of playing the good guy, but being a zombie in a video game is a little to close to reality. Being the evil genius-ok: but mindless, red-eyed, compulsively feeding myself- I might as well mount a mirror next to the screen.
This has been explained on Slashdot before. Of course, maybe "giant" spoilers are different from smaller spoilers- but spoilers (in general)do give aerodynamic advantages. That is why many manufacturers are putting (admittedly small, unobtrusive) spoilers on fron wheel drive cars. So today's kids rate one or two reallys, grandpa
I saw this on the web, so it must be true;-) That when they first came out, photographers were ripping out the drives from the Ipod (Not sure because of price or just availability) This feature may be a result of customer demand, and not just high concept marketers.
Actually I beleive the difference between Centris and Quadra was more marketing than technology. They were essentially the same machine. Boot times on the 68xxx apples could be improved by putting system files on a ram disk, which was a virtual disk maintained by AppleRom. Great featuer
