I don't think the article applies to drag-and-drop-right-click-properties-check-smart-o ption programming style. First, it's like using a pencil to draw the idea to someone, then, it performs, as a program, in the same manner (as the pencil?).
OTOH, "Lecturers will probably have to mark dozens of them, making it difficult to spot similarities between them": you'd be suprised the science lecturers develop to measure the software quality and compare the algorithm's implementations. I think it's like researching on teaching techniques & prevetion of student's cheating, but it's reasearch, dammit, it's payed, so:
Rule #FFFFF: do not write code, give it to your students and then ask smart questions about it
What a brilliant place to showcase such a bug! [Obligatory] "DOH!"
Well, it's supposed to be IE compatible, not Firefox, if you read it before you switch.
Too bad only us, Mozilla users, seem to display it:(
..the makers of these hardware-locked media would than be held guilty for you DVD not being indestructible and replace it immediately, supporting the dauns caused by the time the content was not available.
The damaged copy would be replaced on the basis of a declaration of the owner that he no longer has the content (and he may or may not show the damaged media, depending on the nature of damage):):):)
I wonder how would one manage to get the accountants to hear/read of these "free as in freedom" ideas - for the ones that I came to know don't give a s*** about quality of software either.
Software pirates will pirate a good antivirus and firewall software too, don't worry about them!:p
So this means Microsoft wants another monopoly? "the most pirated software company ever"!!
What you call "worms" because they spread with someone's help would rather be "trojan horses". And you're right, this *is* a virus.
I'm afraid that even after this (and after codered, Nimbda, after msblast) nobody understood that IT should be taken more serious by the employer that finds it cheaper to have an "i'll click here" "specialist". The total cost of ownership that is worshiped everywhere should include a +infinitum for pairs of systems/administrators that can take you out of business!
To be short, a smart Windows admin gets over this, a Linux admin too but the not-so-knowledgeable ones fail. The point is to know what the hell's making your OS tick. (and evidence is that open source reveils this faster:)
Back in the late 90's I read about a such discovery, that time with an optical medium that was accesible/writeable in 3d, no hardware parts etc. Then I never heard of it again.
It is hard for one to understand how such inventions just dissapear after they are patented etc. since as we know from the evolution of humanity that there ain't a step forward (even a wrong step) that doesn't generate other steps forward (in the right manner) eventually..
My impression is that the peer from the extraterrestrial treaty is holding most of the patents already so we're prohibited to produce such things until we came up with a _really_ new universally-right idea.
a spinning sphere, a telescope and a star
Well, if one of these would have been left aside, the production costs could have been used to make a whole movie (2hrs) on the Moon,.. if there remains any land not already sold : )

I supposed they stripped the Graphics part from the VGA when they came up with this?..

News from an undefined company.
Maybe they'll have the time to fix this (the definition)
I think www.renderman.org would be the answer to this one. There's a lot of history behind shaders that's older than the current (realtime) one.
