I actually had bash working on Server 2003 once. I installed Unix for Windows, installed gcc in that horrid environment, configured and compiled bash. And it worked. Then I looked around and noticed I had but one shining clean tool in an utter wasteland devoid of resources. Then I had a beer or six and forgot the whole incident until just now.
So you push your bifocals down lower on your nose, tip your head down so we see the rapidly receding hairline from the shine on your sweating head, squint and frown at us because you can't focus more than 18" away and you still don't know who is berating you from your doorway so you call all of us "Sonny".
And I'll get off your lawn after you pay me for mowing it just like you asked. Did you forget where your drugs are again? Remember, the blue ones mean you will have a good time tonight.
"... people learned to purify or alter cocaine to deliver it more efficiently to their brains... This made the drug more addictive. ... We purify our food...we eat corn syrup."
Can High Fructose Corn Syrup now be listed as a controlled substance and dispensed only by prescription?
Agreed. But, most people -- programmers, DBAs, PHBs, sys admins, et al -- have problems with the basic mathematics behind trees; much less the concepts and math of graphs. Most of their education and life experience is based on the concept of tree based hierarchies. If basic math education started with proper graphs and explained hierarchies as a special form of graph, I imagine more than just databases would be designed differently.
I can't wait to see the system you design and build and ship as a finished product. Until then, we use what is available.
I have the same color blindness; and I don't see it as a defect. When inspecting a collection of machined parts, I could unerringly spot the defective parts visually. The defects were as small as.0015". I attribute this acuity to not being distracted by colors I can't see. My ability to discern form in greyscale is also much higher than almost everyone else I know. But don't ask me to look for numbers in the dots.
I use my red-color blindness with women the same way -- I don't care what color your lipstick or rouge is. I only notice when they speak intelligently.
...if you inject x nanoparticles and only x/100 make it to the tumour...
So, put the patient under with general anesthetic and inject the nanoparticles directly into the tumors. Still cheaper, lower risk, and more efficient [outpatient] treatment than current cancer treatments.
If you ever find yourself in one of those states, I suggest you buy a firearm and join your neighbors at the shooting range. The sense of community is outstanding!
Exactly. I expect those parents who do not get their children immunized will suddenly find a clause in this bill which forces this immunization. Look for a lawsuit on this topic.
The same argument was used when the US Interstate highway system was built decades ago. We already had highways linking the various major cities; why do we need these big limited access highways? Decades ago when the first bypass Interstate highways were built in the middle of open county around metro areas the discussions were equally argumentative -- who would ever need such a highway? Who would provide services for travelers on these roads?
Decades may be required before the average person needs 100Mbps. And some of the original architecture and 100Mbps equipment will fail to meet future needs [ analogy attempt: compare a cloverleaf intersection in Ohio with the newly built High Five intersection in Dallas]
One of the functions of government is to provide very long term goals and infrastructure measured in decades which private industry cannot meet -- and which most people cannot comprehend.
Paper is easily filed [and probably lost] forever; or at least until the information on it is no longer needed.
The computer has to have an asset tag, the asset has to be depreciated, and the asset has to be disposed of eventually. Some enterprising hacker will recover that key from an improper hard drive disposal...everytime. Murphy is ascendant.
...paper is just silly. It is less "safe" (as opposed to secure) than a USB key...
Paper has hundreds of years of technology development behind it; what is the oldest USB key you have? Technology easily and readily exists to store quality archive paper nearly indefinitely in temperature/light/humidity controlled environments.
I might even guestimate bar code technology will disappear long before a properly created and stored paper archive.
Sounds more like the Dunkin Donuts/Baskin Robbins stores. Multiple flavors in the morning, multiple flavors in the evening. All the flavors are expensive, all the products are unhealthy with consistent continued use. And 2 hours later you have that craving for more crap.
Whoever was quoted on the 12GB storage savings per student was making up information. I would like an explanation of how 2GB email quota per student -- not measured usage -- becomes 12GB of storage; even including tape backups. If this statistic is true, the storage architecture for Yale email has been designed by an incompetent idiot. Explains why Yale has to outsource email.

They will never be like America until the food preparation technology and process improves. Except for the tea and biscuits at 4PM.

Oh, shut up already!
And get back in line!

And in hexadecimal, two orders of magnitude is F^F -- and that's an F'ing large number.
You mean the same way it does now? Black and white and various shades of grey with the occasional blue?

Now dioxin can be disposed of in the water using siRNA Nanoparticle additives.
Thanks for that....I look at the hordes of people wondering by and hope I don't need a waitress to defend me.

Because lawyers are already the lowest form of slime on the earth -- ocean scavengers can't reduce them any further.
Too much hot air; those politicians will never sink.

I was thinking .22 caliber...the entertainment lasts longer.
Not everyone has a backup admin for these tasks. Whose infinite budget are you using for this extra manpower?
