I am not so sure it is the right thing. Cron jobs are supposed to run at a specified wall-clock time. If the wall-clock time is not correct any more cron jobs will get out-of-sync with business procedures.
It may not be a security risk but most servers' behaviour will probably change more without the patch than with it.
You are reading something into my post that I neither said nor implied. I was adressing your particular analogy with buildings which I still maintain does not make much sense. Now you are arguing very differently from a competition perspective which has much more relevance.
Still economically speaking the development of DC electric power transmission was a waste. But this certainly is to some extent unavoidable.
You entirely missed the point. Creating another building adds economic value -- creating another highspeed wireless technology with the same capacity does not.
not that much of a difference just a bit more terse.
Does Delphi/Free Pascal has the equivalent of "const &" i.e. pass by reference with the promise not to change the value? This is a really important concept to avoid copying of large data structures while still maintaining the non-modifying guarantee.
I am sorry that you do not think that one of the more blatant abuses of the DMCA to try to suppress freedom of speech is not news worthy in your eyes until there is a properly edited article in various major news outlets.
I on the other hand think it is important and the fact that it wasn't covered elsewhere was one of the reasons to submit it here.
Also on the linked page there is a video that I thought would explain quite a bit. You did watch this didn't you?.
Their stock has plummeted by a whopping 43% before trading in SCOX has been stopped altogether. A judge now has to agree to SCO's further business plans. But sure filing for chapter 11 bankruptcy doesn't really mean anything as in "just a flesh wound".
Not true. Economies can and do grow exponentially which means that the average wealth per person growth exponentially as well (assuming population is constant) as do companies (on average).
This growth must slow down eventually but the number of customers is not the limiting factor because they can spend exponentially more as they get exponentially richer.
What you say may have been true some years ago. Nowadays Linux is far more advanced technically than Windows with respect to multi-threading and even more multi-processor / multi-core support.
E.g. gcc does thread-safe initialization of local static variables -- Visual C++ does not. Linux runs on up to 4096 processor machines -- Windows does not. Linux can be run tickless (to some extend) -- Windows can be not. Linux has support for the SUSv3 realtime API with support for nanosecond resolution timers -- Windows has nothing comparable. Linux will shortly have the new completely fair scheduler (CFS) were a user reported that the system is still quite usable with 32k busy threads running in parallel -- Windows would be not.
The article seems to focus almost entirely on the reproduction and mate selection aspect of evolution. But what about survival?
It seems fairly obvious that good leadership, technological superiority and military prowess are key to ensure the survival of a tribe. Hence the article's hinting that all these endeavours are just meant to impress women seems ridiculous.
You should be happy. Your online-reputation is indestructable -- well rather it is non-existent because who would sift through say 25 pages of search results to find one referring to you?
The human eye does not at all experience motion blur. Motion blur is purely an artifact of recording devices. Why anyone would want to make computer games look like you watch a recording is beyond me.
Sorry, I am a bit late just had to finish a Quake III Arena session.
Most old Linux games work just fine on a current Linux installation. Which one do you think is not working any more? I have quite a few over there on the shelf most of which work out of the box.
I am a mathematician myself and while I agree that the Chinese problem is not particularly interesting I have to ask: Why should it be? This is a test to find out wether students did grasp basic 3D geometry and are able to apply it to a given problem. I think it does a good job at that. This is not the place for the surprising and unknown stuff.
Also when solving the problem I found that it required far less "grind" type work than it first seemed.

The desktop era is not ending at all. You just cannot do any serious work/entertainment on a device with a tiny screen.
The same functions in C++:

There is another one that I think Microsoft has in mind: money.

Theft? I sure do hope you do not work in IT since you are clearly not able to grasp the difference between moving and copying an object.
