This is Slashdot, we know that "delta" means difference... from Calculus. Just like marketing to take a clearly defined term and turn it into something vague. "What's your delta?".
A dumb terminal with an ncurses interface still seems like a good way to serve many users efficiently from one computer. eg point of sale, data entry. Of course, its out of fashion so no body would propose it now.
For some weird reason I kinda feel sorry for Microsoft on this one. They were trying to do something different. Of course every nerd knows if you try too hard to be cool... you fail.
All of the MIX programs in Volumes 1--3 will need to be rewritten in MMIX, before I finish the ``ultimate'' edition of those volumes that I plan to write after Volume 5 is completed. The current target date for the ultimate volumes is the year 2011
You probably know didn't state it... Bell and Telus got together to build a GSM network. Because of the iPhone and to cash in on roaming charges during the Olympics.
Yes, there are many possible problems with spam, etc. But at least they are using an open standard: email. Perhaps IPP might be better. This means any email user (including any smart phone user) can print which is kinda cool.
So maybe that's their stand... if you post something that offends a country (or big enough group can can block the site)... your content will be removed.:(

That's my style too. (I also make sure my C++ objects are always free-ed up too.)

I agree. Its like a programmer saying "the program works...just don't click there"

There's the hack then. Use a Devanagari R until most computers handle the Rupee symbol.
I made this to do it automatically

Do you have any examples or URLs?
Maybe us Westerners can use something else.
Why didn't Mr Usability rate them out of 10 or 5?
Scales most people are used to.

The name wasn't so crazy

If it became a hit, the name would no longer be strange.

So maybe he's done early - like tomorrow.
You can load those libraries from Google.
I assume the don't penalize you for that!
I just searched for "Adobe Flash" in the Android Market and got nothing (useful).
Weird. Why doesn't Adobe put it there?

Its not a law. Its a bill.
Most useful would be two buttons on the dryer:
[Run Now] and [Run later when its cheap]
It would be cool if the dryer could talk to your meter to find the rates... or a simple timer would do.
Perl leads the way!

I'd love to buy more memory but I already have 4GB (the limit for many machines.)
Maybe both... the 40GB SSD *and* a hybrid drive is the answer.
I don't see why the robot is needed. A soldier could walk to where the known unmined area ends and fire this thingie.
The other compiler can be a previous version of the same compiler.
So maybe that's their stand... if you post something that offends a country (or big enough group can can block the site)... your content will be removed. :(
Gov't == OS
Agencies == daemons
President == superuser
Election == kill or exec
Love Presto. Its like magic. Was in Fedora 12. Might have been in 11 also.
