Hello,
If I have a pacemaker in my chest and tell the police, is it attempted murder if they try to non-lethal shoot me? Will officers be more trigger happy with these devices, so as to increase such an incidences likelyhood of occurring? Good day.
Hello,
So I think it would make better sense to have a four-core chip that runs at 5ghz each (AMD's probable path) to achieve upwards to 20ghz performance. Most probably even though the chips with be multi-core, those cores will likely be sub-divided at consistent levels (4 cores each have 2 or 4 smaller core units). That way, we can have a set of child cores (c-cores0 sharing their level 1 cache, noting the performance seen in Intel's Core chips with. Plus you can have the parent core units (p-cores) sharing their dedicated memory on a hypertransport bar switch like AMD's Athlong/Opteron chips.
The chips will likely have ridicilousy small pipelines, huge cache, and unlikely to in the near future reach let alone pass 5ghz. For one setup, you could have a combined 40ghz (5 * 4 * 2) or 80ghz (5 * 4 * 4). Power consumption is the devil we would have to play advocate to for not melting the rest of the computer. But then, having multi-core means that some of the cores can be down-clocked or turned idle-off when not needed saving power and current.
What would need to be the fabrication process for such a thing? 65nm my have a chip the size of a DVD for this many cores, no? And to refit and test for a potential angstrom level process will take veru many years. Good day.
Hello,
I sorry, but you can pay 50$US for a C# book and if you are good at programming, it will take you only about 7 days to get good at that language. I know for sure (100%) that there are jobs paying 100K$US a year for C programmers and only 65k$US for C# programmers at www.Justcjobs.com so spare me. Now, if you suck at data structures (got a less than a B in the course), it will be a hell of a time to look over someone elses code and be quick to opitimize it. Don't think just because you can plug in a quicksort instead of a bubble sort that you know your stuff.
I takes theory to balance all the crud in the practical world. I went to a vocational high-school and a 4-year university, both for computer science, and I think that was the best combination hands down. The practical stuff on my resume got me to my interview, but my theory got me hired. Computer theory classes on regular expressions help you way better than google on perl regex.
Do you know of the first virus to ever strike an ASCII README.txt file? If there is a virus in the meta information, it is a problem with the editor and you should probably be using a better programmed tool for YOUR programming. Current files are stored with extra info on disk like a link to the next sector of data, the file size , and last accessed date. The same system to help this stay in tact should have a simile for your source code with the tools you use. If you find a virus, it is because someone decided to do a low level hack and it is no different from someone setting a certain bit sequence in a jpeg to cause a faulty renderer to crash.
Hello, I guess the problem with the two examples is that: In the first you are using a value and a pointer. If I wanted your code translated to Scheme, I would have to re-implement it from scratch as it Scheme only supports pass by value. In the second, you made the XML code overly verbose. You also have typos that don't sync up. I guess that is why it would be better left to the IDE to make the XML and not you.
Hello,
You would not have a semicolon tag. That is style for the language. It would not translate for Phython. Your arguement tag should probably wrap the data as it may have been an expression instead. You put a return value for the function as an attribute that would have worked better in a separate tag. You have a function with a type (I assume return type), but you also have a return, which would have went suitable with a type value instead of a literal. Stick with C and let your editor get the XML done right.
Electrons are constantly moving through the system and that produces wear over time. It is just that they are so small that the you can neglect the damage they produce for a very long time. Newer computer systems would tend to have better power management if the components are design for those things. You can definitely save some money by not running Seti@Home, not using your computer, and not posting to slashdot. You could also use solar panels to generate your electricity for your computer and you would then not worry if it is on for a long time. A flashdrive instead of a platterdrive would help prolong non-volatile data life and stability. Also, If you use Seti on a cheap linux cluster to start instead of the office computer then with this combination of things you may save money and do more Seti@Home.
Please comment over my assumptions about people's ability and enthusiam about constructing and wanting to use these things.
I am right now using WinXP on my laptop (shared with my girlfriend) I have a BeOS machine and Win98 station that I do my gaming and shool work. The school I am attending uses all Sun and SGI machines running Solaris or IRIX for which I connect to with a SUN IPX. I think there should be various groups of systems purchased. Mostly PC's running Lycoris and Solaris but also Apple G4's running OSX. This pulls the strengths to filter into the different majors like Architecture and CivilE but also for the presence of real suitable systems for tasks at had. I would like to say a stray away from Windows would be good only because you may end up using it for a while in your job that you might as well get a breather now. Data modelling on an o2 with IRIX would be better than on some other systems. I would like to see a dual 1+ ghz Apple system working a render than some PC's.
http://www.lycoris.com/ I saw this a little over a month ago. I thought it had great potential and to still leave the user with the "MircoSoft" look and partial feel. Plus the cost was not too high. If you have a decent technical staff behind the systems, then this with the "Desktop/LX InterConnect" would be great for the students. There is also the "Desktop/LX Deluxe" which is a more programming oriented setup is somewhat cool. and the prices don't suck for the inclusion of an office package.
I would mention BeOS in this group but there is a solid office package to work with besides GOBE Productive. But hey if OpenBeOS comes to pass within the next year, that would be a sight.

Linux is a splendid operating system for advanded computer users who understand how their systems work and want to control it better. Linux has yet to replace Windows for playing 3d games of high quality (OpenGL).
Linux is however a good operating system for a first time user who is not use to any particular system and an experienced user who understands the under lining of their computer. Linux is still just slightly short of replacing Windows in every area in my opinion.
The Linux operating system is new to some individuals. Some are people who would not mind writing many of the business applications that are out for other OS's. I personally would not mind writing or help in writing the software for a tax program specifically for Linux. If an individual really would like to have any particular software and not have to write it, they should go to software forums to see if it has already been done.
I thought Linux was an OS for hackers, nerds, and others alike who want a system they can mold to their liking and not be afraid to write what they don't have for it.
Tax software is not really as popular and likely to readily written as device drivers, games, or utilities would be. Give it time and your post here is a good start at finding what you want.

Hello,
What is funny is that there are only two lines of code there, so x would be 2/2 -> 1/1 -> 1 by reduction.

At least it wasn't caused by some twit who wanted to alter the dynamics of the center of the earth. For more info see movie in title.
