Where are the kernel-level tests that do more than exercise the filesystem and network driver (singular) and the scheduler? More than half of those charts were flat, which could mean they weren't making appropriate measurements.
For example, show how mutexes have improved, or copy-on-write, or interrupt handlers, or timers, or workqueues, or kmalloc, or anything else that a system and kernel programmer would care about. I like the user-centric perspective: it's very good information to have and share, but don't call what you've done a kernel benchmark. Maybe call it a kernel survey of its impact on users.
Yes, here in Japan the 'washlet' is very popular. You'll find it in most department stores, restaurants, and houses. However, in train stations and public spaces, you'll find the opposite end of the spectrum: washiki - the squatter. It's arguably the cleanest since you don't actually touch anything (no seat, no bum sweat residue, no stray hair,...). The first go is a challenge though: a delicate balance between, well, balance and positioning.
Taking the liberty to change T to trendy, sounds like XSS would fit in nicely with XHTML, XML, Xbox, Xmen, X11, Xray, and heaps of others as "XSomething Something". Maybe we should ask Homer?
a map for your mind. It helps you see the historical/genealogical relationships between distros, but doesn't map the minds of the users/developers of those distros.
I was expecting something more along the lines of the philosophical leanings of the mapped distros, like which are more community-based and which are more corporate; which are incredibly zealous and which are more diplomatic. You could pick up to three different spectra and map them before you ran out of easy-to-visualize dimensions.
For example, I'd like to see:
Cathedral [-----] Bazaar (leadership style)
Boss [-----] Best Friend (openness to questions or new ideas)
Jihadist [------] Zen Monk (open source philosophy)
I call BS on this one. I have been to Japan and they have the most backward banking system in the world. I only know of three ATM's in Tokyo that will even accept a foreign bank card.
Yeah, it's pretty funny over here. However, I've never had a problem using a foreign card in Japan, and neither have friends. Go to the Post Office's machines. Japanese banks will only take Japanese cards in general.
What frustrates me are the charges and hours. Yes, hours, and they aren't 24 hours a day. It's more like 08:00 - 20:00. Plus, if you buy airline tickets or other furikomi goods, then you usually get charged around Y500 for the 'service'.
'The ruling sends a very strong message that Internet servers, if they are aware there is hate content and don't take timely action to remove it, can be held liable,' said the Ottawa lawyer who filed the complaint in February 2002. [emphasis mine]
Four years is timely? Maybe for a rock with a lichen problem....
This jacket would supposedly protect me from flashover -- several thousand degrees where anything that can combust, will.
When it comes to flashover -- Don't be there. If you are there, get out. I've taken classes that involved practing the fine art of going out a second floor window head first onto a ladder and flipping over, slamming an axe into a wall braced across the corner of a window, tieing off a big of rope to it and bailing out the window -- even if its just to hang 20 or 30 feet down from the room where the flashover is about to happen until someone gets around to moving a ladder to you.
Phht! I read Holy Blood, Holy Grail when I was about 11 or 12 - required reading for school. I mean, who hasn't? I thought everyone got that reference when they read The Code...
People get worked up when there's lots of money in to had, hey. I can a write some obscure work that alludes to anything, and no one will really care. But once I write the next NYT top-selling Asimov novel, boy, the people who published things about Heisenberg and Einstein better keep their wits about them. All that money is mine (er, I mean my publisher's).
You're right. It's a characteristic response for activists: go for the biggest. It helps them get the media exposure they need to 'raise the public's awareness'. And it can be quite effective for their process:
Find a cause
Pick a high-profile target
Make some noise
Cause a change.
It's unfortunate most folks get lost between steps 3 and 4 (I suspect there's some ??? and Profit! going on), but a few changes do come about occasionally.
McDonalds, Nike, Starbucks, Walmart, and now Google will continue take the heat from concerned student groups.
You're correct. On a pedantic level, she isn't wrong: knitting is seen as "women's work," and has been for quite a while. However, on an equally pedantic level, she isn't right. The nuance in her statement makes no referece about the origins of knitting, and perpetuates an unknowing reader's ignorance. Had the reviewer considered this, she could've written something more honest, and perhaps more interesting:
The artist's use of needle craft, which in recent culture has been typically considered well within the realm of "women's work," begins to reclaim a historically male skill and establishes a challenging relationship between the young man implied by these works, the voice of popular culture/media, and a father's voice."

It's not that geeks get bored and move on to the "next big thing" - it's just that "the next big thing" is usually built by geeks, so they are inevitably the initial core user group.
Exactly. So, what have they built, and what are they building now? I think the next chic-geek bandwagon could be contributing to wikis or being part of an OSS development team...
Specifically, Gonzalez prohibited Lee from working on search technologies, business strategies, planning or development related to the computer search market in China, as well as any other areas he worked in while employed at Microsoft.
Considering Microsoft makes sub-optimum "search technologies", then Lee can go ahead and develop for google (which tends to make things that work).

I prefer the 'dirty' washlets.

Mabe the ACs out there don't know that Bugs Bunny wasn't the first to step foot on the moon. Someone else was....
Moon to cut only 1200 jobs (and Marvin gets to keep his).
Is that like a gonad, but you only have one? And I thought eunuchs had it tough!
