I'll take your Intel insider and raise you a simple business logic chip. Why have 3 teams doing the same thing... Co-ordinate the best ideas from 3 teams and spend the effort building a better processor.
That can't work. The best ideas are incompatible. But one of them will be fastest, for domains that Intel predicts will drive consumer demand. This is why they changed to a Pentium 3 derived architecture for the Core/Core 2. Indeed, it beat out a Pentium 4-based design.
And so what if I don't know my Oregon geography? I hardly get out of Portland proper.
I don't think you know what is meant by an "infinite data structure". Hint: They are finite at every stage. Mainstream languages have supported infinite data structures since the linked list was invented. What Haskell brings to the table is not needing to know the values at "up front", since the data structure can compute them on the fly, as needed.
Think of them as unbounded (not tied to a finite collection) iterators of "objects" of the desired type.
Admittedly, I can't find a source either. My source is an Intel insider out at the Tigard, OR complex (a couple, actually). So by all means take what I said with a few grains of salt.
That isn't how chip fabrication or design works at all.
Intel has three design teams, in three countries. They compete for the next Intel release. The israeli team won the Core/Core 2 Duo design. All the design teams were expected (and told) to keep Moore's law in mind as the miniaturization teams worked out the shrinking details. The Core/C2D was the most efficient processor for that many transistors.
The new 80 core machines are also coming out of the Israeli design team. These things don't even have (many) more transistors than a C2D. But each core is basically a streamlined Pentium 2 core (like the Core architecture), and they all share a large cache, and Apple has first dibs. Sweet.
I wish I had something funny and relevant to share, but all I can think about is Bob Odenkirk yelling "FUUUUCK" and running down the street with a shopping cart full of eggs.
Who said his pennies were rejected? The judge demanded more, for showing his contempt for the court unnecessarily and tying up the court's resources. They literally had to deal with a million pennies per day. Yes, the court made their problem worse, but Flynt was then in a position where he had to find 50 million pennies every day or go to jail.
Now, whether the myth is true or not is a question for Grant Imahara.
I do not have the name of a particular service or program. I would suggest you call Apple. They are perfectly willing to do comprehensive, on site support plans. From what I remember from reading about their AppleCare technician programs, they contract Apple certified technicians/shops in major cities to provide support.
Yes, I did consider that some people don't want to move or start a company, that's exactly why I included things which are trivial to do. Perhaps you missed the "or" and "as appropriate"; try reading it again, slowly. Get someone to help if you have trouble understanding, or see a doctor if you can't remember the start of a sentence by the time you reach the end.
I suggest you follow your own advice, since I acknowledged that complaining to your local government was a valid option, and is implicit in my statement that people who don't want to move or start a new company have a valid complaint. It is also entirely ineffective.
On the other hand, the electric company doesn't have a single problem with selling a user as much energy as they need, even going to foreign energy markets on the user's behalf.
14 years ago the average per user usage over all customers was 50 bits per second. Now the average per user usage averaged over all customers is 20,000 bits per second.
Cry me a river. That's less than 8kB/s. Hardly faster than dialup.
If contention at your ISP is excessive, find a new one. If you only have a choice of one then write to your elected representatives to demand a free market, start your own competitive ISP (if the current ones are gouging you can sell better, cheaper services and still make a handsome profit, right?), or move somewhere with a more free market, as appropriate.
Wow, seriously? Your suggestions include: writing to the state, STARTING A COMPANY, or MOVING? Have you considered that some people aren't autistic and might have lives they don't want to disrupt? They still have basis for valid complaint.
Thankfully, a network of Microsoft terrorists will be able to track then using Virtual Earth and infect the servers with Windows, thus rendering them useless and saving us all.
They're self-selecting, since they're insecure and a web site validates their self-image.

OH THE IRONY.
Even people who can only write shitty little VB apps are generally ahead of the curve, if not by much.

"Compaq" and "good job" do not belong in the same sentence.

They aren't news, either. Except to the advertising industry, which I suppose Slashdot joined long ago.

Such incisive wit. It almost makes want to yell "BUUUUURN". Almost.
Translation: Wah, I'm a cry baby.
And at least MSFT has an excuse,since Bill was stupid enough to leave a dancing monkey in charge,so what is up with Apple?
Steve Jobs is dying.

Yes it does. Just not to you.
I sincerely hope you were being sarcastic about "Ubuntu 2000" being futuristic.
Protip: when you "sincerely hope" somebody was being sarcastic, they probably were.
Or do all four: both, twice.
Apology accepted.

What's with the unnecessary hostility?
