My CS program, and most that I've heard of, have some large project as a sort of finale; guidelines are given, or even a broad topic (compilers, databases, and so forth) but the design, implementation, testing, profiling, and the works is left up to Teams that the classmates pick.
How can these people definitively say that Sun is going to GPL Java? They have no citations of anything worth believing in that article, just links where our good ol' Sun CEO is toying with the idea of maybe using the GPL.
The reasons gaming sucks on Linux? 1) X.org and XFree86 are slow. 2) Multimedia hardware changes faster than Linux developers can clean-room reverse engineer drivers for it 3) Linux software advances faster than companies can port binary-blob drivers, if they even do 4) Lack of commercial games, and thus lack of investment potential for any other games: see also, Macintosh 5) Lots of games are designed for x86, or at least only tested on Intel hardware; have fun, SPARC, PowerPC, Alpha, ARM, MIPS, and Itanium!
It's the radio and the GPS which are closed, but that's for Federal reasons; you can't have people broadcasting willy-nilly these days, and I know that there are some GPS restrictions. The interfaces to the drivers are perfectly usable.
RTFA, and do some research.
The best part about this book is how applicable it is to other languages:
Even though it doesn't directly touch any others, of course, it introduces things like closures and tail recursion in a very good way for both intermediate programmers and newbs to understand and apply to, say, Perl.
In any modern Linux distribution (and even most antiquated ones) ther is no need to worry about downloading tarballs or compiling. It's just a matter of how many packages are installed by default, and I respect the fact that you like having lots of 'em to choose from. I'm just being a pedant about packaging systems for Linux is all.
It's not really a pretext if the Tor server's IP address was logged by the kiddie porn site.
"Oh, it wasn't me, officer; I just let people anonymously use my server to access illegal things!" I'm pretty sure that is truly illegal. I mean, the if the IPs of trouble sites are known, the server could have blocked them. Nobody would complain.
Strong crypto is easy to export from Canada; while I don't know this personally, I do know that OpenBSD, which is hosted there, has not had a problem with exporting OpenSSH.
I'm not trying to be a devil's advocate here, or anything (actually, I lie), but OpenBSD allows Root logins over SSH right out of the box; I'm sure you're as aware as I how many script kiddies know how to use brute-force dictionary attacks on ssh...
"And, who knows, maybe Microsoft will rise to the challenge and beat the competition out by producing a superior product that is worth paying for even in a market that's been leveled by OpenDocument? Probably not, but it could happen, and it would be a win for the consumers and the marketplace as a whole."
This is precisely what happened with Netscape, and look at the situation we're in now.;)

Of course, Brian Eno already worked on the Windows 95 sounds.
So is this all saying that incorrect diagnosis happened 20% of the time until the advent of Google, where it jumped to 42%?

You didn't notice the Honorable Mention for Marathon, did you.
Jesus, how hard is it to change from HTML to XHTML? Learn CSS (no hard task), get rid of stuff like frames and tables, and HTML Tidy.

What? All of Congress was involved with the Lewinksy woman? Sheesh, she gets around.
Man, I feel sorry for the poor bastards who work in those conditions.
Why Freebsd 6.1-CURRENT, I wonder? STABLE is bleeding edge enough for most, and I quite imagine that they could just use base 6.1.

Hah! Brilliant! Serves her right for letting all her friends turn doddering and fill tech support phone number queues!

Yeah, because everyone uses GCC, and the fact that C++ is standardized doesn't mean anything.
This guy sure has a lot of balls asking for (admittedly minor) thesis help on a site his faculty could be reading this very minute. ;)
Where in the world is the SPARC support, especially for the T1 Niagara, that was promised for 6.06 just this last week?
In vi, you can use the % symbol instead of 1,$ for those that love those little keystroke-saving tips. ;)
Also, you forgot the colon.
Holy hell, a for-profit company?!
It's also about fifty-thousand times more informative!

Don't forget the huge #9.
9) You can fix software so that it'll run on your new/ancient platform.
