that might not have been well written, but I run Linux on MIPS processors. I'm sure this CLR will be useful to me on this machine, right ?
Yeah, so it won't really be cross platform in the same way linux is cross platform, it will just support various hardware configurations that also happen to be able to run windows.
Whooptydoo, microsoft releases SDK compatible with hardware that runs windows.
Since when you aren't on the clock, they still get your ideas, alter the contract to include paying you some big $$$ consultant rate for ideas that happen outside of work.
ALso make sure you continue to collect a check for that year when they still own your ideas, and since you aren't working for them, bill them at your $$$ consultant rate.
Normally a company would rather cross out the items than pay for your time outside of work.
my name is tsiangkun and I'm a habitual mouse clicker too. In the old days, I would tap my pencil or chew on a pen cap when I was thinking through a problem or just wasting time. In the digital age, clicking the mouse repeatedly and rapidly is my new vice. I need help, and admission is the first step.
This type of over throwing of a widely established model would be major news, and would not be published in some 'me too, add my brick to the pile' journal.
Let me summarize the article for people who haven't read it.
This was not insider information.
This was not information from SONY.
This was information from an anonymous source.
This was reported as a rumor from an anonymous source.
They called SONY to inquire about the rumor before publishing.
SONY neither confirmed, nor denied, the rumor, but instead threatened the blog if the blog should run the article.
The blog ran the article.
SONY followed through on threat.
{-- end of story --}
{-- begin commentary --} SONY should have confirmed the rumor, and then asked the blog to wait for the okay to run the story as being the official word of SONY, or else face the wrath of SONY and lose their insider access. That would have been in the spirit of the agreement between the blog and SONY.
Punishing a blog for publishing an rumor from an anonymous source is just another bone-headed SONY move.
It's about 4 inches long, folds into the handle for convenient carrying and safety, and gives much less irritation than any other razor I have used.
I took the Fusion challenge in mission beach, california. I went into the booth with a good week or two worth of growth. The fusion razor was unable to match the performance of my straight edge. it clogged, and needed to be rinsed every quarter inch or so.
The cut throat glides through forests of hair with ease, never clogs, and is able to be sharpened after such harsh use. Also, since it can be wiped clean after each stroke, it is possible to avoid getting all that hair in the sink and thus prevent the cloging of the plumbing.
Even still, I was actually impressed with the fusion. It performed much better than I was expecting, and gave a smooth close shave with little irritation. It just didn't shave me easily, and it nicked me all over the place.
It's never been easier to do massive screens to identify interacting factors on a genome wide scale.
Before we used RNAi, we had a simple file server with one hard drive holding everyone's data, maybe 6GB. After RNAi, we have a respectable number of terabytes of images, and live videos of cells.
is it ZooNee, which rhymes with looney, which is the type of person who wants all the security experience of microsoft leveraged in a mp3 player with a wifi connection ?
is it Zuny, which rhymes with dummy, which is what I think of the people claiming this will get great battery life ?
Is it just plain Zune, which rhymes with doom, which seems to be the fate of many would be killers of the iPod ?

I'm still in shock really. I was anticipating the PS3 for years, and then in just a few months, SONY destroyed any desire I have to do business with them ever again.
I don't know about you, but in my house Wii have already decided what Wii think of the PS3. They could have a mere dozenPS3 ready by november, and it wouldn't change a thing for me.
I just don't have the time,or patience, to deal with my music player crashing because someone sent me a virus masquerading as an audio file.
I'm assuming of course that this MS device will be running MS software, and be subject to all the nasty goodies that windows brings home from the network.

Is there going to be an IDE for writing shell scripts now ?
I for one like working with text, and could care less about wading through tons of API documentation for these wonderful pipable objects.
I have a myriad of OO and procedural languages for solving problems. My shell is the duct tape that holds them all together.

I wonder if by cross platform if they mean it runs on both windows XP and Vista, in both 32 and 64 bit versions, on both Intel and AMD processors ?
I guess I'm just an old cynic, but I don't think it will be cross platform in the same way linux is cross platform.

I was worried I was the only person on /. with a myspace account.
Thanks for pointing out the most obvious reason for these better password,
the administrators don't allow crappy passwords on account creation.
I do, frequently people start threads where half of their post is in the subject line.

Seriously.
There isn't even a 'printer friendly' view of the content available.
I can't tell if you are being funny or insightful, but I agree with your statement.
I think we are more likely to end up with intelligent goblins and beautiful brainless fairies, if there will only be two groups.
This discovery changed our whole game overnight.

Does anyone know how to pronounce it ?
is it ZooNee, which rhymes with looney, which is the type of person who wants all the security experience of microsoft leveraged in a mp3 player with a wifi connection ?
is it Zuny, which rhymes with dummy, which is what I think of the people claiming this will get great battery life ?
Is it just plain Zune, which rhymes with doom, which seems to be the fate of many would be killers of the iPod ?
I went outside once, played a little hacksack in the golden gate park.
Somebody taped me, and put it on YouTube.
In anycase, here is proof I went outside once.
Lets rephrase the question
I run a business where I hold money for people to keep it safe from thieves.
I give their money to a thief.
Who is at fault ?
Sounds like the bank is trying to skirt their responsibility, and developed an insecure method of keeping their customers money safe from theives.

Ask me if I care.

I discriminate against companies infected with DRM
And look, there's a Magnetbox and Sorny!
To all the people who think I paid for the file and not the music, I'd like to join the chorus and say
Fuck You !
DRM ??? I don't need no sticking DRM !!!
I have an iPod, I already understand being locked out of my music collection.
Mine has a battery life of about 23 minutes.
I just don't have the time,or patience, to deal with my music player crashing
because someone sent me a virus masquerading as an audio file.
I'm assuming of course that this MS device will be running MS software, and be subject to all the
nasty goodies that windows brings home from the network.
Average battery life is ???, and getting shorter with each additional CPU using "feature" added to the phone.
I'm guessing the average battery life was around 18 months, but has dropped to 17.6 months in this generation of phones.
I'm also guessing these people aren't 'buying' phones,
they are renewing plans with new phones thrown in for "free".
