Your success will largely depend on the size of the result sets. SSDs are much better at small, random reads because there is no seek time(they are random access, all bits take the same amount of time to read). However, several benchmarks have shown that on long, sustained reads, higher end hard drives tend to fare better.
In actual combat though, 30 vs. 20 tends to have a higher win rate than 3 vs 2(with good commanders anyway). 30 people gives you a lot more freedom to implement various tactics that would be impossible or impractical with just 3 people.
people, don't play rock music, some of it is quite good. If you really want people to admit to anything, just pipe in the music from any mall this time of year. That many Christmas Carols will drive even the most hardened of souls to tears.
CHickenpox and Shingles are caused by the same virus, in fact the progeny of the viruses that gave someone chicken pox are responsible for shingles(the virus stays in the body for life). Shingles occur usually when the immune system is weakened to the point that the virus can start reproducing without the immune system killing it.
Since Slashdot doesn't support Non-Latin characters, translating into Chinese in slashdot is easy!
????????????
See, that wasn't so hard!
And slashdot gets mad when I use a lot of "junk" characters, so I will go on and say that this isn't 1994, pretty much every single OS/Programming language/browsers supports lots of characters(ok, so maybe Windows doesn't, but that hardly qualifies as an OS.) Why doesn't slashdot?
So after 3 times of trying to submit, I will type a little more. The whole firehose view on the mainpage sucks. My guess is that I am going to hit submit a 4th time and the lameness filter will still abort my post. Malda must be pro-choice.
On the 5th attempt, I must pare down my joke.
On the 6th attempt, it hardly becomes a joke anymore because the lameness filter is insane.
On the 7th attempt, I'm about to give up.....
On the 8th attempt I think I will submit a bug report. The post was supposed to be a bunch of ? marks because that is what slashdot translates non-latin characters into(though some have found workarounds)....but the lameness filter destroyed my attempt at criticism of the site...maybe thats its purpose?
Um, its actually a bit more than that. First of all, not every individual lives in their own household. If we assume that the average household has 3 occupants, there are now 100 million households, or $9 per household. Next, the summary states that only 40% of households have at least one console. So that means that roughly 40 million homes have a console. Take $1 billion / 40 million it comes out to be $25 per household. Not a ton of money, but I'd still rather have the $25 than nothing. Not to mention all the hidden fees caused by global warming and using up scarce resources....
Yes, but compare results! Bush succeeded in turning Iraq into a black hole, sucking in blood, money, and the least important thing, his reputation, the LHC has yet to create any!
They already introduced supposedly the next generation of the Quicktime API with QTKit when they released Quicktime 7. The problem with QTKit is that its not really complete, and as I have said, not at all documented. So if they want people to start to use QTKit instead of the old quicktime APIs, they better get on the ball. They also really need to cut out the secrecy bullshit and let people who don't fork over tons of cash know what direction the API is going.
Unlike some operating systems from Redmon, OS X can do NFS right out of the box. Though I guess we can cut Microsoft a little slack, the protocol is only 20 years old after all.
Actually, there is only 1 case where I would actually recommend using AFP over NFS on macs: If you are using Mac OS X Server to provide authentication to other Macs, the AFP is fully kerberized and encrypted over the wire(well it can be) whereas NFS is just plain old NFS.
recently got into Cocoa programming and for the most part absolutely love it, Apple has obviously put a lot of effort into their system and it shows. However, Apple seemingly skimped on one of the most important, but usually easiest to implement parts of their system: good, up to date documentation!
For instance, in the QTKit documentation is just beyond abysmal. There is little documentation on how to do very common things, such as set your export settings. I had to do a lot of hackery just to figure that one out(and its still far from straightforward), they have typos that have been there for eons, even though I used their feedback form to tell them about it, and perhaps worst of all, they don't even mention many methods that are in the API.
On multiple occasions I have had to go into the header files just to find out what I could do with various classes. I shouldn't have to do this! Compare this experience with say, Javadocs and its night and day. While Javadocs are far from perfect, they are infinitely better than what Apple puts out.
Why would Apple do something like this? It costs them almost nothing to create a lot of these docs, and actually updating them once in a while could save developers tons of frustration. I guess maybe the paid ADC accounts are bit better? Thats really a low blow if they are though....
Furthermore, Apple tends to deprecate APIs without really replacing them with an API with the same functionality. Case in point is QTKit. Its a nice API for what its worth, but there are tons of occasions you either:
a) have to go down to the old Quicktime C APIs(which means your code won't be able to compile in 64 bit and may not work at all on Snow Leopard) or b) Have to come up with some creative hacks to get the functionality you want.
For instance, in order to get an MPEG-4 formatted to anything but the default size you either have to use an atom container which is 32 bit only, or manually set up a Quicktime export with the settings you want, write some applescript to save that to a file, THEN read that file in as NSData THEN set that to be your export settings(which on Apple's website has the oh so helpful documentation:"Information to come."(That was over a year ago).
Cheating is why I quit playing Warcraft III online, and well, Warcraft altogether. In Warcraft II the maximum level any unit could have was, IIRC, 5(2 weapon upgrades and 2 armor upgrades), but it was pretty commonplace to have level 16 grunts mow through groups of ogres.... Not to mention the ubiquitous map hacks and whatnot. Warcraft III was pretty much the same. That coupled with moving out of the dorms(where my friends and I would play LAN games) pretty much caused me to get out of Blizzard games altogether.
Blizzard, at least in my opinion, was doing almost nothing to stop cheating.
the establishment dogs who's only job it is to demand that every possible security thing is addressed will start grousing.
They haven't been grousing about the fact that Apple hasn't released security updates for 10.3 in months? About the fact that the latest(and almost certainly last) version of Quicktime for 10.3.9 has numerous security holes?
You seem to be going on the assumption that somehow the breach was somehow done through purely technical means. This may very well not be the case. Maybe somebody lost some data through leaving it on a laptop/memory stick, maybe someone who works for the company got this info, or it could very well have been obtained with some good old fashioned social engineering.
Actually the thing they sold(and still do sell) is a more "up to date" MySQL(including security fixes). The community version of mysql is always a little bit behind the Enterprise version in terms of bug fixes etc. They also sell support and probably engineering as well(don't know, haven't used that). We bought the MySQL enterprise edition where I work because we are being forced to be paranoid about security, and that includes always having the latest and greatest db software(whether or not MySQL is more or less secure than Postgres is another matter altogether)
His first act in terms of the military should be scrapping that stupid-ass missile defense system being built in Poland and the Czech Republic. There, now not only have you saved a ton of money on a pointless system that doesn't work, you also will remove one of the biggest causes of friction in the US-Russia relationship.
Its proof the OP has about 0 idea what he is talking about. ARM CPUs are not meant to compete with the Desktop/Laptop CPUs, they often lack a lot of the features that those CPUs have. You won't see a whole ton of ARM based desktops anytime soon. ARM does compete(and is already light years ahead in terms of volume) with Intel in the embedded market. Having a version of ubuntu you can customize for a large # of devices does open up a lot of opportunities, but thinking that somehow this will combat Intel's dominance in the PC CPU industry is just well....stupid.

This obviously was the inedible part of the brain. I guess akin to the bones in chicken.

Not to mention shit like the War Powers act which pretty much says that the President can start a war for 60 days without congressional approval.
