National electic code requirements mandate that you have EPO for any data center or similar facility. The "big red button" is also an informal standard so that fire fighters can quickly identify and disconnect electricity if need be.
Very excellent summary of TAL... I'd like to point out one more potential benefit of TAL is that your templates are then portable between implementation languages.
"Normally I do a lot of technology development and consulting, primarily in the areas of embedded/portable systems, hardware, security, reverse engineering, and computer architecture,"
So, my guess is that running linux on the xbox is a novelty that happened with non-broken hardware after he was done reverse engineering it.
Sun would have a better chance surviving
if people like Gosling could show Jackpot
and its benefits in a BUSINESS CONTEXT.
Well, I don't see the relevance of your comment, Artime would really be doing something wrong if Gosling was speaking in a BUSINESS CONTEXT since Artima.com is self-described as:
Artima.com serves a community of developers interested in object and service-oriented architectures and design. At Artima.com, developers can find practical information in articles, interviews, books, links to resources, FAQs, and discussion forums. Our intent is to make Artima.com a place that developers can learn from experts in the software industry as well as interact, share information, and learn from each other. -- About Artima.com
If you have to hand off your code to another person who will be doing primarily design, for instance customizing the "look and feel" then using separate templates is really valuable. You will drastically cut down on "bugs" caused by changes in the logic introduced by a designer changing code accidentally.
Even if PHP is the templating engine, separating the logic is important.
I have used all the other templating systems, Smarty, phplib, and have used templating systems in perl such as TT2 and find that ZPT's work out very well for keeping the designer happy and me as a programmer happy... Like Smarty PHPTAL is a pre-compiling templating engine, so you end up with quickly executing templates.
Just edit your include_path using a.htaccess or by editing your site wide include_path. This way you can include your files using your syntax, require_once "MyApp/file.php"; This type of configuration is common in every other environment, so why not use it in your PHP?:)
You should've read the next line that says, "Don't comment on my example directory stuctures. . . ", they are for example purposes only... but, thats not the complete point of your post.
The point being made by the author here is that new linux users wouldn't know how 1) that they could "ln -s" 2) that it would take root privs to do it and 3) that they wouldn't know what the "easier" name means to do the linking anyway. Think of these symlinks as "tooltips" for the commandline.
The primary idea here is that chandler will let you arrange your data in a way that is meaningful to ~you~ not in a preconceived view so to speak, such as the Outlook model.
I would say that the reason that you're not going to encounter the mythical man month problem here is that you are introducing a new and very specific domain for each member of the swarm to control or a sub-swarm controls a point of movement in your system. I imagine that the smarm wouldn't train as well if you give 2 or 3 members the same problem space because the "ant trail" ( communications overhead) would become clouded and less effective. Also there isn't "communication" so to speak, the main bottleneck to productivity in the Mythical Man Month as Swarms usually "find" the optimal direction to go based on the average of all the members without the need to argue of who's right or wrong.:P
You need more computers overall, because you have development machines, then usually your own "personal area" where you can handle email and manage your personal life... unless I misread Planning XP.:(
You should read the articles on Symantecs' convertion to using XP internally. There are two articles, one in the January issue and another in the Febuary issue... the article summary said:
EMBRACING CHANGE
Going to Extremes
Adopting Extreme Programming practices, Symantec developers, testers, technical writers and managers took a calculated leap into the agile unknown--and even the executives are impressed. By Alexandra Weber Morales
If you read those articles you'll get some excellent answers to your questions.
Lost overall cost to benefit... Server setup is a big part of it, if you don't have control over the server and the client is on a low budget then its usually easier to find a host supporting php. At least thats what I've decided.
It doesn't address the larger issue, but people want the bandaid to fix their problem... for most people its the client side issue right now that can be dealt with...
Aside from the fact that client-based spam filtering is most-likely the least effective solution and more likely to stop legitimate mail than other methods such as known spam relay blocking.
There are larger client based issues than blocking "known spam"... SPAM is not always the pr0n,get rich quick, etc spam as it is known to us techies... Its also say the >>FWD:>>FWD:>> chain letters that Aunt Bettie forwards you, etc.
Client side "SPAM" filters are also just better filters in general and will help clients in managing their email.
For me, Extreme Programming by far would slow me down, because I would constantly be waiting for the other person to catch up to where I am, no matter whether I was in the driver seat or not. And given the release cycle we have, and the feature list we have that have major features on it, my company can't afford to have any programmer slowed down, let alone their most productive one.
As a note, according to our bugtracking database, I've fixed 4 times as many bugs as the next closest person . . .
I would say that you need to work on helping develop your team... If I were your manager I would say, "Your productivity is great, but you can help bring the team up to your level we can really be doing awesome." 4 times the productivity is great while fixing bugs, but perhaps you're a good debugger because you have experience with it, share the wealth with your team and stop being so hung up on yourself...:(
... use of non standard services... and non standard locations...
*cough* You can put these where you want... Could you elaborate more on why it didn't work so well for you? Its always been simple, easy and fun for me to use.

I don't see how this could be a dangerous book to hype... Having read this book in the last month, I don't see this as doing anything other than advocating having more people on a project...
You obviously didn't read the review...
Also, if you're doing the jobs of 5 people either accept it, realize that perhaps you're doing more than your job ( i.e. stop doing other peoples' work), or get a new job...:P
I don't see how this relates to database and what roblimo said last year... am I blind? I read the comment you made as "slashdot went down a year ago due to a database failure that couldn't be fixed by a simple reboot." Of course, if hadn't have read the article I might have just taken as that, but... It was improper network setup...
Exodus really wasn't set up to handle the type of failover the 6509 was meant to do. Thats what the Cisco folks said basically, and the Exodus people are no longer supporting this type of Cisco in their setups. Half the VLANs were only stored on one unit and the other half of them on other. So when one died it only knew half of the full setup and couldn't route things correctly since the VLANs it wanted weren't there... Fun!!!
As it's name implies, Puffin allows you to automate "actions." An action, in terms of Puffin, is any "high level" execution item that may require inputs, may produce outputs, and whose results may be validated for success or failure. For example, an action may involve making an HTTP request to a dynamic web page. It may involve grabbing a file's contents or even retrieving a specific email based on a keyword in the subject line. All of these are actions in the sense that they can be automated by Puffin. Puffin will manage all inputs, outputs, and validation for these actions.
The purpose of design patterns is not to specify an absolute framework to work from, but to describe a way that collections of code can work together to provide a solution for a type of problem... You can translate OO solutions in to non-OO environments, go see Cuj for an example involving UnitTests.
In the Seattle area, I find that as a Cingular customer its often better to switch my phone to use the ATT network.... heh, what a crazy time ( they share somehow now... )

Hmm... I wonder why taking notes on paper wouldn't work.

There are implementations for both:
As a counter to this...
