I have never walked away from my Mac for 24 hours only to discover that it is still compiling the same MacPorts package, and I have never seen MacPorts package database get royally screwed to the frequency I saw when I was using Gentoo.
I am masochistic enough to LOVE Perl. Even though I do Java and C++ for a living, whenever I need to test a concept, or do any sort of ad-hoc text processing (important when we make sure our implementation of an algorithm matches the researchers') I whip out Perl.
Exactly. Skills in specific languages don't matter as much, because they keep becoming passé. If you can keep learning new ones (preferably on the job so you don't have to think up something to DO in that language) you'll be fine.
Yes. Here are two examples: -My first employer out of college was housed in a building that was owned by a corporation owned separately by the owners of the company. When our competition bought us out, the owners of the company continued to hold the building, and the new parent company had to pay rent where before it was free. (We were privately held) -The corporate headquarters of the new (publicly held) owners was ALSO separately owned by a different corporation, which was owned by the chairman and CEO. So, in addition to salary and stock options, the CEO was also getting paid rent by the company he controlled.
The laminate protects the dye on the card from getting scraped off, and also contains the holograms. The laminate on modern ID cards is much harder to rip off and reapply; it doesn't cover the entire area of the card, and rips very easily.
I used to work for one of the companies that supplies Digimarc with printers. We had a framed photo of one of our printers after it had been stolen along with a workstation from some facility. The guys couldn't get through the workstation's security, and then blew away the printer and computer and monitor with shotgun fire.
Because tickets are a funny resource in that more of them can't be issued. Anti-scalping laws, combined with per-order limits on the number of tickets you can buy, are there to prevent ticket scalpers from buying up as many tickets as possible and artificially restricting the supply of available tickets in order to make a profit. This is similar to the alleged practice of NYC slumlords leaving entire buildings empty in order to drive rents up by restricting supply.
Yeah, that's the same one I had. I never used the tape capability much. I only used it as a console game system. My parents tried to use it as a personal finance manager and whatnot, but there was no storage capacity, so it was almost useless.
The first 16-bit PC that eventually went on to take down TI's personal computing division by losing too much money? Meanwhile, I see fridges in the store that can display TV and whatnot. Lame.
I think it is losing to hard disk recorders not that HD capacity is more affordable. Sony has stopped making recorders. However, it was a common thing to have among recording studios. However, it was pitched as a replacement for audio cassette in the consumer space, where it failed utterly. Worse than MiniDisc.
The article is dead wrong about Philips' involvement. Philips and Matsushita developed the competing DCC, which actually played analog cassettes. DAT has based on videotapes.

Don't modern flash drives have controllers specifically designed to spread writes around the physical media?
Sure, but someone could have checked the net activity just as easily.
Funny, IBM's not even in the top 20 semiconductor, and hasn't been in the past 2 years
It doesn't anymore, it seems. I set my treshold to -1 and the anon shows up now.

RMS definitely has moves.

How else do you get the interview in the first place?

Someone forgot Ohm's Law.

That's right. But why stop there?

That's all feed:// URLs use, innit? A fake protocol always seemed bogus to me. You already have a MIME type.
Surely they would display an ad similar to this one in that case.
OMG, I totally read the same thing.
It's not just crash survivors that need to be worried about. What about crashes in populated areas?
You can just change your default posting mode to plain old text. Then your line breaks will be translated to

See?

The first one is probably talking about Cyclamate.
DES PINGOUINS! excellent ça :)
You're absolutely right. This is orthogonal to wasting time coding a specific linked list instead of using the STL version, for example.
