MySQL had Windows support and GUI installer for a long time before PostgreSQL. I wouldn't touch MySQL before version 5.0, and in my company, I only use it for email. All customer databases are PostgreSQL. It just works.
Been there. I'd rather put a bullet to my head than live with a spinal headache for an extended period of time. I'd say it was a 14 on the scale of 1-10. Worse things I've ever experienced in my life... even after 2 back surgeries!
FWIW, I moved to a location that AT&T didn't cover and they had no problem whatever in canceling the contract without an early termination fee. In fact, they TOLD me they weren't going to charge me the fee. All I did was give them the address of the new place and they verified it on the phone. No issues at all.
Speaking as a guy who lives rural, I have dial-up on my new property and a 900 MHz radio shot to an ISP serving rural central Virginia at my current place. That can get up to 1.5 mb max and I am damn glad to be able to get half of that! Satellite is okay for some, but the latencies are a killer for anything SSH/SSL related.
I guess that is why I have to drive 40 minutes before I get Cingular coverage. Verizon is there at 1 bar, sometimes 2 except when hitting. mountain null spots.
You have it all wrong.... The humans are obviously screwing up other outlying planets because the sun's rays pass through our orbital path, obviously intensifying the warming effect on those poor unsuspecting planets, you insensitive clod!
Ummm, both Microsoft and Apple have a long history with BSD-derived works, even before Linux and GPL was around.
As far as Apple's use of "a lot of FreeBSD code", no shit, sherlock! The MacOS X roots date back (through NeXT) to the mid-late 80s. Their whole underlying structure has always been BSD.
I've been using dual monitors since about 1989. My current setup includes my 17" MBP and a 30" wide-screen. I like the laptop as my main computer so I always have everything I need regardless of where I am. When at my desk, the 30" is invaluable as an extra screen. I keep email, IE (via parallels) and IM on the 17" and BBEdit (text editor) / FF, Safari on the 30". It really helps when doing development. VD is a nice feature, but this setup kicks more ass and lets me work faster.
I haven't have issues with AOL since the 90s. I know I mentioned IPs, but I also pull the browser type and other info I can query against in my validation functions.
I agree the PHP My point was that while the session Id is stored via a cookie all validation is against the database on the server. Cookies/sessions are a nice convenience, but I would never store anything of value there.
Once a user validates into my ajaxy apps, their PHP Session Id, IP and other info is stored in a database record for the duration of the session. I validate against that on every page load. If any one piece of info is out of place, they get kicked. That, and SSL is your friend.
Amazing. Slashdot is going the way of Digg. I agree with the other poster and the ram. The below uptime is on a network with shares and has 2 FW drives.

Stop being such a stone-head. Jeez!

Mine is a piece of crap too. Luckily my employer pays for it.

Couldn't agree more!
Agreed. greylisting is very effective. That and checking SBL/RBL et al go a LONG way to keeping things at a sane level.

Distance or depth? You decide.
It's all a matter of depth perception.
You forgot to read the small print ... * Battery life affected be screen intensity. Video playback assumes LCD display off.
Shit. And I got all excited because some property I am looking to buying has a *CHANCE* to get 256k ethernet over power.

Never store important information in cookies!
Yes. The one with the stripper factory and beer volcanoes in heaven.

And we are too ... if you consider THIS Mac user to be a middle-aged, self-employed unix geek / database administrator / developer. The ads made me so.
Sure would lead to a whole lot of hookers in the world. Next thing you know there'll be a stripper factory and beer volcano in heaven!
You mean other than the fact VMWare isn't shipping a running version for the Mac?
RAmen!
So he can run Aero when Vista ships?
Geez ... Oracle, PostgreSQL and others
