Anyway, you can't vote with your wallet, not in the U.S., because if the airlines start to fail, taxpayer dollars subsidize them. It would just be tragic if those terribly important businesses went under from being unprofitable. So the boys in gov't make sure that we always have unprofitable airlines being subsidized in order to keep their pals happy.
What's an order of magnitude? I hear the term all the time...but it seems to have various disparaging values. Is this just a nice way of saying "buttload?"
So this is the future of chess, and maybe even eventually all games requiring logic. We'll just pit computers against one another, and people won't even play anymore.
Just as a posit, do you recall the story sometime back about terrorists storing emails in web mail folders(like on hotmail) without sending the email at all? And then the remote contact logs into the same account, views the stored email, and edits it as his response. No email is sent, so no valid recipient needs to be specified, and it's never intercepted during transit. If this is a common practice then it wouldn't be shocking to learn that most of AQ's emails fail to have a valid sender/recipient.
If women aren't entering the CS field, it's not the fault of the CS field, it's because women don't want those jobs, and you shouldn't try to find ways to make it falsely appealing to them, because they'll end up disatisfied with their jobs, and seek something more rewarding. It's like saying "there aren't enough african americans in the 'Saving Dixie' confederate history program." Gee, maybe it's because they don't care as much as certain others.
Perhaps not so simple. I'm gonna go ahead and make the assumption that a large number of people will have(have had) serious stability issues as a result of SP2. Remember the 3 out of 5 figure that everyone blew off because it was related to some malware that's incompatible with SP2? Well most users have malware on their machines, that's just the way it is. They don't know or care enough to remove it, or buy this book. And if they install SP2, all they'll know is that their computer no longer wokrs.
Finally, I have a simple off the shelf solution for rendering someone totally immobile. Juts slip these under their feet and bam, instant loss of traction, and then you could program the tiles to cart them off to a predetermined destination. Yeah, so not really, but it's fun to dream about floor tiles that kidnap people.
In other news, Sonic Solutions has acquired the former assets of Roxio, and has changed its name to "Roxio." The remainder of Sonic Solutions assets have been sold to the former Napster, now changing its name to "Sonic Solutions."
As others have pointed out, a solar sail does not accelerate directly away from the sun. It orbits the sun and uses the energy from the sun to accelerate its propulsion. So you can actually stay quite close to the sun and build up a great ammount of speed, then your orbits gradually get bigger as a result, until you're far enough away to break out of orbit and zip along at high speed. It takes a long time to get to it, but once it's there, you're going pretty fast.
Now, as should occur to many people(and has probably been stated by the time I post this), doing this kind of analysis and publishing it will undoubtedly affect the markets with that "self-fulfilling prophecy" effect. So this is a wonderful example of how observing the reactions affect their outcome. By stepping back and taking a good look and exactly what's going on, you've significantly altered the very thing you're watching. The trick then, is to publish a study that can take into account its own effects, and manage to be so obscure as to not reveal that facet of itself. You not only predict what the markets will do, you have to predict what the markets will do once the people involved know what they're going to do.
But that(selling your own, without broadcast flag compliance) would be illegal. And you would face fines and jail time, for what? For distributing something that you made that's capable of recording content that you paid to watch.
Since when did paying MS customers ever get to live without viruses and worms? Have you been hiding under a rock? SP2 won't make any difference, last time I checked, virus and worms have a much more rapid release schedule than official MS Service Packs. So it really doesn't matter. If you stole XP, you're screwed, if you bought it, you're screwed.
If I write a program that performs a particular function, and then later want to write a program to do the same thing, I end up producing an almost exact replica of what I coded previously. Maybe it's just me, but my coding style is basically set in stone.
So, in that key, I'm not physically keeping a code library, but I am reproducing code that may have become the property of another party.

I know what you mean. I haven't been so deeply confused and conflicted by any material on the internet in a very long time.
...ha...ha? Oh my, what the hell have I seen?
My reaction:
*frowns in puzzlement*
*creases brow*
wait, what?
*frown*
You stirred up a hornet's nest with this one...

It's really not too hard at all. All you need to do is look.

Look at the pictures. That's the size of no mouse I've used. Sleeping on that thing would be comparable to sleeping with a toaster.
