The only real limits are:
RF front end/IF section (if any, could be a direct conversion)
FPGA speed
The latter really only comes into play for high datarate/frequency work, so its all in the (hopefully replaceable) front end.
I wouldn't call that last update list up to date:)
C++ is at C++11 (2011)
Objective-C arguably is at a new version due to weak references and ARC (which are a feature of the compiler) (2011).
PHP has had updates (for better or for worse)
Its all an arms race in speed. However, if people were smart and realized that hashing was never a good solution and instead followed something like PBKDF2 with a large C (thousands of rounds), we still would be safe.
I have no idea why you're at 0: Troll. ADT is nothing close to IB, or even Microsoft's WPF tools. If you haven't tried them all, don't rush to make judgement.
Out of curiosity, which would you consider the bad episodes in Firefly? I agree there are 1-2 less stellar ones, but would like to see if it lines up with what I felt.
Most portable? OpenGL. Has the benefit of not requiring huge libraries ala Qt. Consider sticking to OpenGL ES 2.0.
Most useful? Quartz/CoreGraphics. Not a portable choice of course, but a good drawing toolkit none the less.
Or, in reality, every skimmer records numbers. The thief comes by with the "dumper", buys some gas while take a complete download of the current recorder memory. Its far less risky on the retrieval of the numbers, especially if the skimmers have already been identified and the cops are waiting around the corner for the guys to come back (unlikely, but you never know).
Most LED degradation is due to heat. They still get quite toasty (of course nowhere near an incandescent). They also share the linear light dropoff as they age with fluorescent bulbs. However they don't have the warm-up issues of a fluorescent.
Thats the crux of it. The applications were spammy, brought nothing to the table except for a few pictures at $0.99. You could churn out 100 such applications in a day, and some people got close to that rate.
If Apple adjusts their policy towards habitual application spammers (have you seen the Games section?), it would also solve the problem. But its easier to just target soft porn.
Advertised speed class is different from actual quality.
For instance, many off-branch CompactFlash cards do not support DMA - they are supposed to by the specification, but since little end equipment actually used DMA modes until very recently, very few people noticed. This is the same for SPI mode in SD cards (though not a requirement in microSD).
Well TPM is a relatively open standard. If you can find a fundamental flaw in the implementation, more power to you. That would be breaking TPM wide open, if accessible from the outside. This is akin to someone figuring out that all door locks from vendor X will open with a master key.
Physically disassembling an IC, and taping one of its logic lines is specialized work (even in hardware engineering), as done in the TPM case. This attack is akin to someone cutting down your door with a chainsaw, cutting open your door lock, and making a duplicate key from looking at the pins.

Seriously, Sharepoint? Does anyone actually like SharePoint?

Already done by some companies, i.e. BMW.

And what is wrong with Scala? Its miles better than Java. I also don't see Clojure or F# up there.
Technology progress leaves us all in the dust :)
Note that most FPGAs (and all of Xilinx's) are SRAM based - the bitstream has to generally be loaded from an external memory IC at boot-time.

Since you decided to quote message passing, you don't actually understand the power that message passing brings to the table.

I hope its more than $16k - or its a very poor quality diamond (bigger is better right?) - there is no way $16k will net you any diamond at 3 carats.

OpenGL is crap as you mentioned - its basically nonexistent on Windows, and the Linux version is only marginal.

Multicore was wild speculation. It was pretty much obvious that it was a Cortex-A8 once the first units hit the market.
Have you waited for them to warm up? Peak light output only occurs minutes after striking the bulb.

The crashes were the worst - saving on every turn got annoying. The graphics weren't really a problem for me.

Deauthorize all has saved me as well. They limit the number of times you can do that per time period, but its not overly draconian.
I recently upgraded to Chess 2010. How about you?
Provable software. Lots of time.
