  5. Re:Why not on Shouldn't Every Developer Understand English? · · Score: 1

    I'd say it's just being polite.
    I'm from Denmark and am currently studying CS. When there are no exchange students in a class, it's taught in Danish (when the lecturer is Danish of course), if there is just one non-Danish speaking person, every lecture and every mail or piece of paper to come from the lecturer will be in English, so they have a chance to follow everything.
    Every single textbook is in English and English is a required subject from 3rd grade and up.

  6. Re:he is right, but it depends on the application on Panic in Multicore Land · · Score: 1

    In Denmark everything academic that gets published is in English. I guess it is because the audience for these works is small already (Computer Scientists) without putting a language constraint on it too (Dutch/Danish speaking).
    Besides that, we have lectures in Danish normally, except if the lecturer is a native English-speaker or we have foreign students in the class, in which case everything is in English.

    Actually it is only the unregistered domains. The little strip in the right side of the page explains it:

    2. The Wildcard
    Servers at state-owned Camtel scan the adress. If the name isn't registered, a line of software - called a "wildcard" - reroutes the query to a Ham-controlled site, Agoga.com

    From the United Nuclear website:

  12. Re:Not so on Nano-Scale Memory Fits A Terabit On A Square Inch · · Score: 1

    I believe the first use was K = kilo = 1,000, M = mega = 1,000,000, G = giga = 1,000,000,000 and so on, since G for grand is, as far as I know, a purely american expression. I think that physicists were using those units long before your G, M and B were in "common use for budgets and gross national products".
