- 5000 is apparently the limit for the number of results a query can provide at monster.com (weak) so there are most likely far more that 5000 java jobs in their database - couldn't figure out how to search for C reliably, but it's probably up over 5000 as well.
please... X11, NX, VNC and Sun Ray all suck ass compared to RDP. i use them all on a daily basis, and RDP is far and away the best of them all. authentication, remote devices (USB, printing), sound, mapped drives, etc. etc. none of these other solutions even touch on any of those features. not to mention, the performance of RDP smokes all of those others completely out of the water.
i would have read [wikipedia.org] your post [wikipedia.org] but was too busy clicking [wikipedia.org] on completely unnecessary hyperlinks [wikipedia.org] to stupid [wikipedia.org] shit on wikipedia [wikipedia.org] that were embedded [wikipedia.org] in it.
and that is -exactly- what microsoft wants. you to -not- buy into either HD disk platform, so they can get you later with HD downloads.
i'm not sure why more people aren't picking up on that. microsoft could have stuck an HD-DVD player in the 360, if they really cared that much about the platform. but instead they keep HD-DVD on life support, just to keep people from going one way or another, and it becoming the standard.
they want you to buy their downloadable DRM infested media files, which you won't be able to do anything with (i.e. resell, lend, borrow, etc.) other than play it on a single node-locked machine (just like they did with vista).
this is all a microsoft long-term ploy, and we all lose in the end.
FTA: "While we should note that the VideoScan numbers are not all-inclusive (for example, they don't include discs sold at Wal-Mart or some online merchants)"
Yeah cause it's not like Walmart or some online merchants contribute much to home video sales...
I hate to break it to anonymous submitter, but depending on when a disk was released, it may have -zero- reported sales when a summary report like this is generated. And said movies may very well suck anyway, and not be selling for that reason alone.
i've found oracle's support for their database and financials products to be great.
anytime i reported an issue with our several thousand dollar implimentation, they either already had a patch that fixed it, or had one shortly thereafter.
so i guess everyone can mod both of these 'my individual experience' posts down, and call it even?
"KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, Florida (CNN) -- The launch of space shuttle Atlantis on Sunday was scrubbed for 24 hours because of lightning striking the launch pad Friday and other weather worries, NASA announced.
The launch will be tried again Monday. Sunday is the first day of the shuttle's launch window, which closes September 7.
Mission managers said no other significant issues besides weather could affect the launch, said NASA test director Jeff Spaulding."
don't be a prick. the text of the patent could be directly interpreted as "selecting an artist, then a particular album by that artist, then a specific song from that album" as the parent posted. just because you dug up the verbose text doesn't change what it is.
and yes, it's a pretty fucking obvious way to categorize and navigate through digitally stored music.
just about every ripper i've used has an option to create artist then album directories to contain the actual song files - so just putting a folder of ripped tunes behind a web server infringes on creative's patent? that's BS, completely fucking obvious, and never should have been granted as a patent.
the question now is, who has the patent on doing this with video?
and what do you suppose will happen to all those non-DRM'd tracks that cost whatever on your hypothetical company's download site?
you don't think that every single one of the tracks will end up on kazaa/limewire/alt.binaries.mp3 within about twenty seconds of being online?
i'm sorry, but if you think that some company that would put non-DRM-encumbered media online (and that it would somehow gain the 'respect' of technical people), that they could somehow be sucessful at selling said stuff, when it's simultaneously all over every P2P network and USNET for FREE, is completely retarded. you think there is really that much good will out there? that your average everyday joe trying to get by will cough up several hundred dollars for his library of music, movies and software, when he can simply google it up and download it all overnight for free? with no worry of legal repercussion? come on.
itunes is a perfect example of how sucessful DRM-encumbered content can sell. and apple has plenty of 'respect' from technical people, regardless that they lightly protect the content they sell. and -plenty- of people are buying their stuff. it's not the end of their world that the stuff is protected. works just fine for them.
i'm not a huge fan of DRM, but even i realize that if you don't lock it up, people will steal it. period. especially if they can do it in bulk, sitting at their computer, and it's something they want.
who in their right mind jacks their core storage directly into a WAN (given that this thing is obviously aimed at home use). regardless of what cheesy firewall/router is in it, that's just asking for trouble.
one of these days, oracle or ibm or someone big will get off their ass, and just set up repositories for the apt, and you'll be able to 'apt-get install oracle' or 'apt-get install db2'
support for this sort of stuff seems like bloat to me. i mean wasn't the whole idea behind firefox to get away from the "hey let's jam everything we can possibly think of into one browser app" idea that was bogging down mozilla?
all the code neccesary to support this canvas thing (which will probably rarely be used) is just more junk that will slow down legit bug fixes, and probably be RIFE with security holes.
firefox will eventually just turn into 'Mozilla NG', and become yet another bloated turd of a browser, given the direction that 1.5 is taking, IMO.
this 'web app' support should be a sandboxed plugin, or something else that can be -optionally- added on, for firefox, not built directly into it.

10. ability to actually make and receive calls
piercings and mohawks somehow make someone 'cutting edge' or a better coder? i think not.
good developers will follow the jobs.
i'll save you the trip to monster.com, here are some search results from there:
search results

perl 2569
python 1035
ruby 547

- 5000 is apparently the limit for the number of results a query can provide at monster.com (weak) so there are most likely far more that 5000 java jobs in their database

Wouldn't Solaris have to go along with the Sparc hardware business as well?
I mean what good is a new Sparc without Solaris to run on it?

So much for the sensationalist submission title.
most likely the people who made said phone calls and emails are RHAT stockholders, which would pretty much explain things.

so they dumped some DLT drives and a ciprico array for some LTO drives and some xserves?
wow.
this is news how??

sorry actually they didn't. i have a late numbered OQO (with the supposed wifi fix) and both the range and the reliability of the wifi is horrid.
what did dell design it or something?
