Wow, it's extremely difficult to send data on the serial port of a PC to control a couple of servos..
This gives me an idea. Remember those old "control circuit LEDS with your computer!" experiments? I wonder... there has got to be some electronic kit or something with USB, any ideas?
Or should we prepare for the fact that such rivalries are inevitable, even in space?
Long Answer: Look, if we keep fighting for first posts (see above) in a website, where we gain nothing but make such morons of ourselves, what moral authority do we have to stop the nations from fighting for the LaGrange points? "-1, greedy"?
I wouldn't go so far as to say the US is evil. It's just the greedy bastards that run the US that are evil. The American citizens are (mostly) not.
No, they're just ignorant sheep that believe whatever lies their government tells them, without even questioning, and supporting them fighting "terrorism" in oil-rich countries. Keep going, America! (insert sarcastic patriotic song and waving flag here)
I never use any for_each crap in C++. I just make sure all my arrays begin at index 0. Sure, it's risky at times, but definitely much more elegant than the half-baked C++ iterators.
Many open-source applications, like Apache, now also run on both Windows and Linux, "which is something to bear in mind," he said.
This doesnt do Linux much good either.
Au contraire... when you find out that all the apps you're using on windows happen to run on Linux too (and natively!), why not switch? When all windows users use a F/OSS app on windows (instead of say, photoshop, or maybe excel, etc), one of the major obstacles for switching to Linux will be gone.
Which is the reason I've been telling F/OSS programmers to write cross-platform apps.
Applicant: My name's Albert Einstein, your company called me because they want to hire me for some nuclear project. I rejected their first invitation, madam, but I'm reconsidering.
Worker: Sure, Mr. Einstein. Just fill this 30-min exam on nuclear physics and we'll see if you qualify.

"We've lost our case based on evidence and will now be suing the organisation that provided the evidence for doing so".
That reminds me of the Tobacco companies, they said exactly the same thing about the TV company that exposed their illegal acts.
Yes, but the difference is that under copyright law, I can require that you not make copies of my site
Hellooooo, pragma NO-CACHE?

Remember the guy who posted a website where you could control christmas lights from it? Turned out it was a hoax.
Call me skeptic, but I think this one's a hoax, too.
Thanks! But somehow posting that, made me feel dirty. Must be bad karma... Aaaaaaaanyway, let's go back to the topic :)

Don't run Windows.
I would've modded you insighful if i had mod points. Windows is a tremendous resource hog.
Something like this would never be implemented in an open source compiler. With open source, you know exactly what you get...
:)
If you mean GCC, then, yeah, I couldn't agree more with you. It's equally slow on EVERY processor
Another example of AMD trying to win in the marketplace through whining.
So that means I can cheat in business and whoever sues me is just a whining loser? Cool! Where do I sign up?
Isn't it possible they just know their own product better and thus can create a better compiler for it?
Or it's just that they just want to sell their own product better and thus must create a better compiler for it.

I pulled on the passenger door of a cop car... and nobody thought it was cool.
Gee, and I thought I was crazy trying to climb skyscrapers a-la Prince of Persia...
and someone living in the area called the cops and said that there was a gang war going on
Funny, that's exactly what the neighbor said last time we played Dungeons n Dragons in my appartment.
That and you can't see whats going on.
:P
You mean the game, or the website?
Dude, with today's technology, i'm sure that kid would say something completely different like
"OMFG susan gave me a ******* in the restroom she rulz pics here [attachment]".
But I understand what you're trying to say.
And as a bonus, even more value is reaped when commercial companies make use of OSS

High level languages are built on top of other languages. After all, in which language are .NET or Java compilers written?
The good characteristic of C++ is that it's low level. It's the lowest-level language that is independent of hardware, except for plain C.
For this reason, C++ won't disappear. It will just evolve.
Of course, If C++ ends up being a compiler-only language (which is very probable), oh well. What can we do about it?

This is one of the reasons i love PHP so much:
foreach($array as $item)
{
}

Wasn't this suppose to be the "WORLD Wide Web"?
I think someone lost sight of what they were doing...
Yeah but In Medieval America, the world is flat.

In this corner, the emperor! (applauses)
In this other corner, Maximus! (more applauses).
NOTE: Maximus was wounded and he's handicapped so he won't be able to defeat the emperor.
And the winner is...?
