    The data is located in EEPROM which isn't able to be read by a PROM reader.

  3. Re:wrong on all (most) counts on Michi Henning on Computing Fallacies · · Score: 1

    its completely arrogant to equate Brain surgery to C++. For one thing, lives are not at stake. This analogy is delusional with extreme grandeur.

    Then you haven't written code for processors that control, hmm, the actuator on a door inside of an airplane. Bad Code Can Kill. I kinda stopped reading the rest because you just sort of rambled on. Oh, you are COMPLETELY wrong when you state that hardware is so far ahead of software. Your example is too short-sighted to account for most situations in which software/hardware is being combined.

    I want a manager that knows what the limitations are. Banging your head for hours on a problem might not be the answer when you could have redone it from scratch the correct way. Here's an example: just today I was asked to extract data out of an embedded processor on a board. There is no interface into the processor to get it out and the hardware possess no way of displaying this data. So, why the hell was I even asked to try when this is impossible?

    Great, we buy gadets to get out of watching advertisements and some idiot thinks he can make money by saving them? I say be-gone!

    I feel I have to chime in here. Just last week a packge that I was supposed to receive never got here because it was stolen. Stolen in the same place that another package of mine 4 months before.

    If the US were to apologize they open themselves up to the liabilities. In essence, they would have to pay for the downed jet and any costs associated with the hunt for the downed Chinese airman, plus any reparations for the death of the airman. Now, we don't know what really happened out there other then that two planes hit each other and the smaler one lost. The Chinese need to get off the high horse and realize that this was an accident and start working with the US to find out EXACTLY what happened. Once it is determined then apologies should be handed out if neccessary.

    I just don't understand why the smaller plane so darn close as to not avoid a collision with the bigger plane when both were in international airspace. It's like if you hit the person in front of you in your car you will get the ticket %90 of the time.
