the men's signs to be a one foot equilateral triangle and the women's to be round.
That is interesting, as this kind of marking is widely used in Poland.
It sounds as though the system worked of infrared pulse encoding, and that is why he could use a modified television remote. Imagine you are the one designing this (probably in the 1970's or 1980's...) It is generally desirable to keep things simple to ensure they actually *work* -- that is, having a rolling code that may be out of sync while having a signalling train hurtle toward the junction at 80 mph is not desirable -- you want a simple system that the train can activate if needed.
You can have a look at the crossing in question here.
The trams are not going there at 80 mph, its rather about 5 mph. 12 people were hurt in this accident, and only one seriously (broken legs).
BTW, the drivers are forbidden to enter the crossing simultaneously if the change of the switch position can cause the collision. Derailments caused by switch position changed under the running tram happen not so rarely.
If SUN Java is GPL'd, why would anybody carry on with an alternative version?
What if SUN's promise is just a way to discourage the open-source competition? Let's wait until it really releases the whole Java under GPL.
In fact ethanol (another neurotoxin you may be more familiar with) might be more effective for this. If you offer it free in a glass to most people, they will actually drink it!
In fact, methanol has the same odour and taste as ethanol. So, they would actually drink methanol as well.
You got a point, but if you got only one socket, how are you supposed to restore the broken BIOS chip, once booted from the spare chip?
Boot, remove the chip (with the power on), insert the broken one, program, reboot. I have done it.
it is already a criminal offense to withold any keys to encrypted data when requested to do so by a law enforcement officer (which is IMO a terrible law, but it is the law nonetheless).
How can you prove, that this is encrypted data, not some random garbage?
Maybe Fibers is the manufacturer's name?
I have a book which has the following text on the cover:
Software Design for Real-Time Systems Cooling
where Cooling is the author's name.
I haven't seen any evidence, anecdotal or otherwise that Sony CDRs have a higher failure rate than any other branded media
Recently I have copied my archives from CDs to DVD. I have recorded them a few years ago. I have not been able to copy two CDs (out of 60). Guess what brand they are...
If you're typing there telling me the digital image is free, while the act of printing the digital painting is worth $600, uh you don't understand what went into making the painting, do you?
So, how much you charge for other copies?
Slashdot Mirror
I used to call them "Elsewhere Science". Has it turned out to be a correct description?
Every day. How about we throw in some reverse polish notation too.. get a Polka going.
Actually, Polka is a Czech dance.
Buy a pink one.
1. Collect underpants
2. ???
3. Profit
Ok, it would, depending when you turn it on.
Not to mention, it does nothing for tracking a run on a treadmill.
How would an accelelometer be any different?
He-3 and some isotopes of Ne are radioactive...

well, it's "X window" rather than "X windows"..
well, one can consider "X Windows" as a shorthand of a full name, "X Window System"

You forget the transmission losses, which are significant at large distance.
I have recently switched to using OO Impress to design slides. One reason - visible grid.
In other news, 80% of the population consider themselves "above average" drivers.
Two zeros and eight ones - all eight ones are above average.

Imagine having to re-compile all of Amazon, just to FIX A BLASTED TYPO.
Only recompile one module and relink. Much less work.

have you ever seen an 80186 CPU?
I have one in my Pocket Viewer. Well, actually a NEC V20 clone.
