Our Agricultural Placement class back in the '80s had two Border Collie pets running around some flavor of sheep (thank God!). Our wagon was tied to 12 draft horses; and we were living with the hogs.
We spent the first six months learning how to assemble our ropes.....
Now git out of my corn field, you young whippersnapper!
You know your limitations, you are willing to find reasonable solutions outside of the standard operational box, and you understand how IT is not really helping you. I love you; will you become my user? I promise not to lie to you, put impediments in your path, and will do everything I can to help you make sales.
So you want to pay desktop support techs to re-image users' computers all the time? In our company re-image takes about 8 hours due to hard drive encryption, which translates into lost productivity of the user.
Exactly. If the user is willing to waste company time installing crap on their personal initiative, then I have absolutely no problem wasting their productive time enforcing company computer policy by imaging their system. I have absolutely no problem explaining, with documentation, why IT made the users system unavailable for an extended period of time.
I have one rule on users who want "Administrator" permissions on their Windows system: if I determine they have been irresponsible with their system, I will image the system immediately with no chance of data recovery. After the first imaging whereby no quarter is given to recover data, I never have a problem with that user again
The United States Treasury will implement this into our denominations quickly. This will allow the dollar to stretch to cover any government spending; and include digital signatures in every bill to thwart counterfeiting. Also, this will make the cash more versatile. Authorized agents of the Treasury, say banks with financial issues, could reconfigure the denomination of the dollars on deposit in their institution -- save all that hassle of having the government bail them out. Keep track of the latest action on American Idol as the picture in the center will show who was voted out last week. Automatic chemical analyzers would notice the composition of the substances on your fingers; FDA agents would should up when high quality cocaine was detected and ask you to cut the product more so American consumers don't hurt themselves.
The possibilities for government intervention are just endless.....
Every passenger gets $50 of chips, more chips can be purchased, chips have no value off the plane. Chips can be used for movies, gambling, arcade games, drinks, or [name your entertainment]. Gambling tables over the wings, kids arcade near the back, bar down the middle of the plane. Anyone not having a good time is either a radical fundamentalist with no joy in life left to live for and will be immediately sedated; or they are an IRS tax auditor and will be immediately sedated.
Not only will this cost less than 25 cents per passenger, I expect airlines will be able to fly fewer passengers per plane as revenue per person increases thru gambling income.
You will still arrive at your destination strung out and tired; but enjoy the whole experience a lot more.
From the original article at UCLA "synthesized 25 ZIF crystal structures and demonstrated that three of them have high selectivity for capturing carbon dioxide (ZIF-68, ZIF-69, ZIF-70)."
Would someone please tell me how we extrapolate the CO2 capture from 3 crystal structures to an entire liter of crystals and can accurately predict an 83-to-1 capture ratio? The math is never that simple in real applications.
If your shitty http engine is too shitty to process html without having to look up the DTD on the w3c's website every single page, your shitty http engine shouldn't be allowed out on the internet.
You never EVER keep just one picture of data you can't recreate such as photos.
Absolutely. I plan my trips so the digital pictures are stored on not less than 3 different media at the end of the day: SD card > laptop HDD > CD/DVD > ftp to home system HDD (which has a DDS3 tape backup jukebox). My trips are planned to include a hotel frequently enough to allow overnight uploads to allow recycling the SD cards.
Home server tapes are off-site rotated with a spare set in the safe deposit box. The best pictures are also stored in the safe deposit box on CD/DVD also. The smallest safety deposit box will hold many TB of digital data in these formats.
..a more reasonable solution would be to supply three-phase power to homes...
Reasonable, yes. But fraught with other hazards. Most industrial machinery requires 3-phase power to operate. I really don't want to provide methods for less scrupulous individuals to start industrial activity in residential areas. Converters do exist to provide 3-phase power from single phase source; but the efficiency makes them cost prohibitive for normal operations.
I would love to have an industrial, manual 5-axis vertical machine tool in my garage -- because I am a professional machinist. Would you really want your residential neighbor to have an industrial 3-phase welder? Would your insurance company?
Wiki? Leave the SQL server available read-only on the Internet. Invite all the SQL vendors to provide a database server. Last server left standing wins. Sounds like a better real-world test than all the biased "load-testing" scenarios used for marketing FUD.
Exactly. The lower air pressure on the ether in the net could cause the firewall filter to actually pass packets as a result of reverse osmosis. This could be quite evident in streaming data which could possibly sublimate into a data cloud -- for which the filter was not designed. Albeit, the temperature will have to be increased in the firewall; or a longer timeout will need to be configured to allow for the higher altitude.
...and more NY Times craptastic reporting. The article language specifics negatively target technical types
peppered with catch phrases and jargon
experts set out to share their ideas in the business world
engineers design products ultimately useful only to other engineers
managers have trouble convincing the rank and file to adopt new processes
some engineer along the line knew how to use that button
innovation gets bogged down in the abstract language of specialization and expertise
Yet, the article fails to detail how managers/executives marginalize innovative engineering:
failure to understand the implications of the technology thus removing the truly innovative aspect
failure of marketing to understand the implications of subtle innovation and focusing on flashy, shallow FEATURES (aka buttons)
failure of management to break the focus groups from their bias during product testing
failure by management to assemble internal review groups without succumbing to the political minions
I give the non-technical people in this world a choice: a DVD remote with 52 buttons; or subsistence farming where sticks and rocks are their daily tools. Now quit your complaining.

Education is fairer when you hold the smartest and best back just a little bit when the rest of the class can not understand their input.
My only reply would include words which are not repeatable in public conversations, n#$%^&!

Any IT jobs available in Green Bay? This sounds like a town which has properly balanced work/life priorities.
This guy obviously has no sense of history....real or fictional.
I for one welcome our new ice cream promoting overlords!

Damn, and I was looking for a good excuse to avoid the weekly systems meeting.
