Hibernate is purported to be a persitent object programming tool.
This was grabbed off www.onjava.com: Hibernate will help us to painlessly store the data in permanent storage without too much hassle about choosing the kind of storage, installation, or configuration. Hibernate allows us to store any kind of objects; therefore, our application does not need to know that its data will be persisted using Hibernate. Of course, everything mentioned here can be applied in the opposite direction: fetching already prepared objects from a storage is now nearly trivial. Updating and deleting data is also available.
Judging by their inaccessible website, Hibernate is what they do best.
One thing seemilngly always omitted in these 'speed' stories is distance. While a 3x speed increase over 11n - which is 2x better than 11g - is impressive, if the basic assumption that the speeds correlate over the same distance is incorrect, the speed is not all that great. It would take multiple repeater modules to make up for the shortage, limiting its usefulness.
If this gets passed, I propose a new grass-roots effort I want to call the anti-ad.
Since this is an attempt to keep ad revenues on a failing delivery system, why not make the proposed 'enforced wathing' irrelevant by boycotting EVERY product advertised on these media.
Of course this means everyone will have to switch to sodas like 'Big Red' or buy cars like Suzuki or Kia, if the advertisers realize their ads actually have a negative revenue generation they will stop placing ads on these media.
Since when is not waching an advertisement illegal? That seems a constitutional violation - No one has a right to FORCE me to watch/listen to anything.
If the people living in the states of the politicians sponsoring this mess would vote them out, maybe the fascist/socialist elements in our government will finally be 'mashed'.
I would hope public space tourism would use re-entrant vehicles that did not spew parts as they fly. Better for the environment, and it should be more economical as well.
These weren't email notifications. (This was awhile ago so maybe it changed): Groupwise had a status panel that had the dates displayed. No return emails were needed to track when something was received, opened, or deleted. It was just in the metadata attached to your original message.
One of the nicest features in Groupwise was the message tracking. Without setting up back notifications, I could see if the message was received, opened, and/or removed. Then, when someone told their superiors they did not receive a message, I could grab the history and show if it was received and just ingored or removed.
For a government group that is losing its relevancy (airwave TV and radio are being trounced by cable/internet/sat. radio), they need to try and branch out into areas seemingly not of their control.
With the statement that it can be used in a digital media stream for output to HDTV (and Linux-type media center), it sounds like this chip is intended for TiVO-like services.
If it is as low powered as touted, I would use it in embedded systems (like house/applicance control). And of course low power means good for laptops.
The fingerprint setup software looks identical to the iPAQ that has the bioscan feature. That was a PktPC app, tho, so the real issue is whether someone will develop a Linux bio-encrypter for this laptop.
Otherwise it would remain a Win-only feature and useless to the converts.
While the OOo/SO twins get the 'starchild' treatment, IMO it will be of couple other desktop apps that will bring up open source (and that includes Linux OS) apps. These would be Firefox/Tbird and GIMP. I have switched 2 neighbors over to these (1 does pro photog) and they like them. The photog guy is now open to getting Linux installed on his oldest PC (cannot go to XP, dying on 98).
Since all of these work on Windows, these people can learn on their existing WinOS, and switch to Linux when the 'upgrade to XP or else' is forced on them.
Ms. Feinstein, who seems to only profess profound emotional injury when non-Democrats speak or are in the news. She was deeply injured by Ahnold's "girly-man" remark. She was appalled by GWB's gayrriage ban proposal.
I am all for presenting the facts. Just because she is from CA does not mean she needs to go for the cheesy emotion crap.

All the 'Nothing to see' messages had me thinking the RIAA had DMCA'd /.
Thankfully, the Supreme Court is at least knocking down the RIAA. Maybe now they'll realize litigating teenagers is actually a money-losing endeavor.
I'd like the admin tool icon to be a mallet, and kicking users off should be the users 'ball' being whacked thru the 'exit' wicket.
I am shocked
This guy should get an endorsement from Eddie and Alex. And his platform could be:

Adding this to Linux is a good improvement.
Since the FCC is worried about government overspending, they should be rewarded with an equal amount of reduction in funding for them.
The reduction can be used to then pay for the libraries (and underprivileged) to get internet access.

I only like to dangle my participle on the weekends. Or is it 'I only GET to...'?
So for whom is the Master Chief voting? I'll wager Republican, since the military likes to vote that way.
Used Xbox: $99

I do quite well with it, thank you very much.
is that IT tasks have been highly compartmentalized - to the point where coders are actually versed in a limited set (or 1) coding language.
And coders cannot be designers, DBAs, or possess much business knowledge. Interaction with the end user is done with a 'business designer'.
As with the childhood game of post office, some of the information gets lost for every node in the SLCD (sftwr life-cycle design) chain.
One of the best fixes is to allow direct interaction of coder/end-user, and merge the designer/developer roles for a better industry understanding.
Discovery Channel is launching Monster Web Search Garage.
Internet Explorer is the Swiss Cheese of software--it's full of holes.
I'd think it was more like the Limburger of software - it stinks.

Can't wait to jack one of them Covenant tanks - not to mention the ability to shank someone with the sword.
Woohoo!
