We could just set up a plugin that would give back one set of information, regardless of the values as long as they are all the same they have to be considered the same. The more people that participate the more balanced the results will be.
Still have my Dell Dimension 8250 with 512MB that I will never upgrade @ 300 / GB. Here I was thinking in 2004 that I was going to be able to max it cheap in 4 years.
That's a load of garbage. As I understand it you think someone will buy a new device, go through a bunch of steps to find someone else's software before they even turn it on, load that software then realize it doesn't work right so declare google's software sucks?
Let me rephrase this into a bad car analogy for you. I buy a Ford car, get it shipped to my house with out sitting in it or turning the key. Now I drop the motor using instructions from someone I have never met, modify the motor using said instructions then find out nothing works properly. I now proceed to trash Ford for shoddy workmanship?
Doesn't seem likely to me either. It's almost like hanging out at a coffee shop over hearing some talk about stocks and screaming the market is falling.
You seem to be losing sight of the objective. A prospective employer wants to see some nice layout and server side and client side data and processing. They in most cases are not impressed with your blog. Next you will start complaining about is that you would have to hire a CIO a team of programmers and a globally balanced EC2 to make a home page.
Looks like someone screwed up the EOL chars for the quotes file. It's spitting out the file until it comes to the end of the buffer or memory location (which in some languages would be that length in terms of string variables).
I actually beg to differ. On smartphones or low powered devices breaking it down to smaller physical processors is likely the most elegant and efficient route. Each aspect of the smartphone OS is compartmentalized. Email is scheduled to run at a specific interval, web browser is refreshing at a different interval all serial on their own in many cases but when it comes to sharing with other processes not very friendly. Then you have 3rd party apps that are all over the board. I think being able to assign specific tasks to dedicated units would help as far as context switching as well as data protection and sandboxing. From the users prospective each app can run smoothly and if the odd one craps out then the OS can just knock out the CPU and dump a report.
I doubt the processors they are talking about have much to them as to consider them CPU's but as we see with the trend of multiple low power cores even scaling to 4 or 8 would likely handle a decent work load equivalent to a few atom procs (enough for a presentation and a web browser) in your pocket at decent resolutions of 1080p minimum.
He's talking about the ability not to fubar the device after a bad update FYI. This way you can push a fix for the fix with out having to goto the field with a backpack full of laptops and replacement parts to get it going again:)
Common man really? I mean really. Come up with some constructive criticism and stop with the bs. Those who program know that regardless of the platform it really is mostly the same. You might impress some first year CS student with a drag and drop programming model but eventually they will have to get deeper than that. All programming is different but sandwiching your opinion with take it or die make you sound not only like a shill as I mentioned above but a bad one. You are wasting our time please leave.
Jebsus man the shill factor on that comment went over 9000. You posted a press release style 3 paragraph comment the same time as the article (8:21). You set a preemptive attack on the hardware manufacturers. A strawman against Apple. Then out of nowhere a plug for developers on a developers forum again with the preemptive against 'haters'.
Personally I would love to grab a tablet the one thing that scares me is vendor OS updates. If I have an iPhone and I hear that Apple is realeasing IOS $X, I want IOS $X goddamit! Now I hear that Google finishes making OS $X+1 and I want that sucker! But wait, Sony/Motorola/whoever tell me they can't/don't want to do because of $Y, well fuck that. Personally I would rather put the same money into a laptop / netbook then get screwed by these guys. With Apple I know the only interest they have is to make their hardware and UI shine, if that takes an update then so be it. With Android they always come out with new features but chances are I won't be able to have them cause the manufacturer said so, or they want me to buy Verson++.
I'm going to wait, let them standardize, let them suffer a bit then get something I can use rather than stare at.
Wow, so they should treat the entire population as possible meth addicts eh? That's pretty deep. I respect the police greatly and while I have only had minimal interaction with them I have always treated them with the utmost respect and because of that they have reciprocated. If you feel that I should be treated without respect because I may or may not be a "meth head" then maybe you have worse problems then I do. If the police have hard evidence that there is a certain threat to the public they have all the resources their people can afford to ascertain and counteract those threats. Surveillance in various forms, training, body armor, tactical weapons and numbers are all on their side and that is something we as the public give to them to help us out. All this hinges on the gathering of evidence and judicial oversight. If for any reason your police force by and large are so concerned with their own well being just being amongst the public then it is either they are not fit to be in the position they hold or their training and confidence in that training has failed.
Your post makes the public at large scared more than anything because you make the innocent feel scared of the people they need to help them out which is worst than any terrorist could do to anyone.
It's true. Just imagine not having someone to give you a pedicure every morning or bathe your Chihuahua in $700 bottles of champagne.
This is serious folks. If we just sit back and let these "geeks" figure out how to make things with out over paid engineers then everyone will do it and who will pay the poor CxO?
This is wrong. Do you know how many CXO's they are depriving of yacht time just by breaking apart their device to see what kind of magic awaits them? These notorious thugs might find out how some of this stuff actually works! Not even the engineers that made them know this! On top of it you should know that as you walk by any electronics box and glance you are already agreeing to the TOS and are likely to be keel hauled by said CXO's Yacht?
This is all wrong, lucky thing for us they will likely be sued then disappear on a random boating accident where none of them actually own a boat!

Wouldn't be worth the shipping costs.

And that is why the new guy can't code :)

It's less accomplished at climbing trees.

Security from your neighbors of course.
You mean something like a BIOS / HDD combo PC hardware has been using since the 80's ? So crazy it just might work!

You picked up on that quick, very impressed!
Somehow taking the gay out of the bible for everyone else and carrying it with you where ever you go seems fitting....
Your ham sandwiches need more mustard btw.
Coincidence? I think not!
I just got a mental picture of Mr. Burns laughing with an Apple logo on his shirt.

Tell me about it next thing you know some one is going to patent a link that says "buy" to let you buy something!
