miserable for trafficked women who wind up there and forced to service a couple dozen or more clients per day, condom or not at the customer's option. And if you catch it, HIV is a deportable offense too.
not so, both still true today but for "exceptions", this court case is about an exception to the general rule, which include imported foreign first sale.
You can make a handwritten copy or photocopy today, as long as for legal use: Libraries have copy machines for that purpose. Try to sell that copy and you're in trouble
wrong, copyright 200 years ago applied to the information, the data, in a book. You could in 1790 copy a book by hand, sell the copy you made,and be in violation of copyright law.
because the same powers that pulled the strings of the meat puppet Bush pull the strings of meat puppet Obama, and they decided it was a good idea (meat puppets now available in white and dark meat, just like KFC).
no, it is a far bigger project to go to IP6 than for a large corporation with total control over their internet IT structure to be forced to consolidate their address space usage. Reclaiming that wasted space can buy another decade or more of IP4 usage. Clearly that is that rational solution.
I see a problem there, the printout would be people readable but not so computer-friendly what with OCR being less than perfect. Punched cards would be much better for dumping out the internet.
absolutely false, Jagged curves are readily apparent in fonts at 300 dpi. the differences even in printed text between 300 dpi and 1200 dpi is quite visible to those even with 20/35 vision.
what "market realities"? Sales of mainframes were down because of recession, but that's temporary. Large banking, market financial, and database systems require them and their exclusive capabilities, there will be no end to demand for mainframes. With economy recovering, outlook for 2nd half 2010 sales for mainframes such as IBM z11 is looking very bright.
you think 300dpi is "high resolution?" that's a crappy laser printer's resolution. I want Linotype quality, 2400+ dpi, then we can call that high resolution. Until screens reach that point, we're all working in low res.
The Perl team itself has definitions of "production" and "stable" for their wares, they have test suite and regression tests, not arbitrary at all whether a build of the language passes or fails. versions such as 5.8.8 are used by commercial and private sector companies, even including banks and financial institutions.
Someday Perl 6 might get there, though it's becoming clear that project is a failure due to lack of focus and all-inclusive feature creep by Larry
MDs get colossal pay compared to most IT worker/professionals. Your comparison is not relevant. Companies who don't cover 100% of required I.T. training are screwing their employees over. A company must cover 100% of any new requirement that would cost me money. Especially for something as meaningless as the paper certifications, which have never helped me do my job and are only so the employer can achieve a designated "partner level" and get "back end money" from the vendors like HP, Cisco, Oracle/Sun (of which I get 0%). Being able to perform my job has only to do with my abilities and 25+ years experience in the field, not the dozens of certifications I have held or hold.
I should point out the answers for those certifications are available via testking, examkiller, etc. which only proves how very worthless they are.
you name of one of many partial implementations of Perl 6, which isn't done yet. To repeat, no sane person nor competent business is going to use Perl 6 or any other half-baked science project for real business.
actually, we're monitoring hundreds already. The Allen telescope array will monitor over a million star systems from 500MHz to 11GHz, and with other projects the number of star systems monitored will go into the tens of millions.
hah, some fanboy mods didn't like that of talk. But the point is well taken, Perl 6 has failed because of too much feature inclusion and navel-gazing, it's like a 2000 lbs. swiss army life that includes kitchen sink, porta-poddy, and arc welder. Time to put a bullet into the head of that Frankenstein and start over, make a simple, unified clean OO and AO language that is natural extension of Perl 5 but without the kludgy constructs.
most of our comm including the wireless and early radio transmitters, were and are far too low power for detection anyway.
why would "they" have trouble understanding or developing spread spectrum, that should come very soon after discover of radio itself: Tesla patented the essential idea in 1903. Encryption and compression are pretty obvious too, encryption is thousands of years old, and "compression" in communication was already being used in telegraph days.

Actually, Somalia pirates have accumulated quite a fleet of container ships for little money down and very cheap labor.

the proof is that nothing new has been done in AI in 35 years, a dead end pursuit with an oxymoron for a name and morons for teachers.
because the same powers that pulled the strings of the meat puppet Bush pull the strings of meat puppet Obama, and they decided it was a good idea (meat puppets now available in white and dark meat, just like KFC).
now that's silly, as decades of AI research have only proved that a truly intelligent machine is impossible

I have to disagree, 300 dpi black print on paper is jaggy crap, and I'm 46 years old with glasses. 1200 dpi and higher starts to look good.

sure they will, there are those who go through entire dumpsters looking for valuable papers
and your stereotype is silly, such "pointless memos" are done via e-mail, copiers mostly do business papers
Let's be professional, the officially recognized description by the IT industry of how Perl looks is "whale guts".

yes it is an acronym, Haggard Aged Men.
the elmers killed the hobby.

Oracle, the next big target after Unix, that Open Source will destroy, is your bloated, 1980s technology DBMS.
Open Source will be very, very unprofitable for you.
Die. Badly.
but there are 1400 star systems within 50 light-years.....

the original post was about "nearest star". There are only 12 stars within 10 light years of us, including the Sun.
