don't be silly, no one gives a shit what 99.99% of people here sent using PGP. Governments, banking system, financial markets, megacorps will be the ones to worry.
you are your co-workers worst nightmare, no doubt. someone who thinks everyone else *wants* to see your powerpoint presentations and listen to your prattling on about them.
Hush, don't give Neal any ideas for even more revolting sex/romance scenes.
That's the one thing about his novels, the sex/romance scenes will make a normal person want to toss their cookies, or maybe contemplate joining an order with chastity vows. A list of gems and highlights might include sex orgy with pivot gangbang girl reduced to ashes and eaten to get result of computation, or description of guy deprived of sex or masturbation so long everything from his knees to his nipples becomes (in protagonist's mind) a giant sex organ and then he finally relieves himself when his virgin girlfriend impales herself onto his pole with a single extremely painful leap and he immediately ejaculates "a Canadian imperial gallon" (sic) into her, or the King of France getting his hemorrhoids cut off sans anaesthetic while a woman feigns moaning in orgasm so those outside won't know the king is having surgery, or where a guy with syphilis and a half-burned off penis gets his load blown with the kind help of a sympathetic women who wraps bung around her finger and jabs him in the prostate via the anus (at least we can be spared Neal's idea of foreplay).
I could go on about Stephenson sex/romance but I think the point has been made. Stephenson sex is pain. My apologies to those of you of a more sensitive nature who read this and don't have your therapist on speed-dial.
or flip it around totally: no, she was hot for *you* dear, can't you tell she's a dyke, she was undressing you with her eyes and totally wants to munch your rug. you're unnerved because you think she's sexy, aren't you?
as long as your going to be in the doghouse for awhile may as well have some fun
there are plenty of other compiled langauges that can produce fast code, some even faster than C or that bloated bolt-on crap to it Bjarne Stroustrup continues to shit out. He's an impediment to progress and should go the way of the dodo
the big HP and SUn Unix iron I set up can do the hundreds or a few thousand of users and several TB databases, but for tens of thousands of user....well, better buy something else!
I've got one of those modular operating systems, can just have a bare-bones core for appliance or add things until it turns into a desktop or server or supercomputer node.
but what I'm scared of is I've been hitting the shopping cart too often, apt-get this and apt-get that.
I'm dreading the day the bill for all these nifty modules comes in the mail.
a small child doesn't adjust cup while drinking, they'll spill if they're not using a lidded training cup. The brain has to learn to do those complicated automatic adjustments and it takes a very long time.
so that can be true for prosthetic limbs too, if it takes a year to learn how to properly control one to drink from a glass without conscious effort that's still a much shorter time than it took us to learn with natural limbs! putting such automatic features into an artificial limb could very well be a mistake, let the brain learn to handle that.
why call it disaster? it's GOOD when any and all copy protection schemes are broken so I can get fair use out of my purchases. Those who are creating DRM are trying to take away my rights. When will they learn they may as well just abandon their wasted efforts and instead get smarter about how content is priced, sold and distributed.
I thought Rama was for colonization. Whether from a dying world or just for spreading progeny was unknown. Was just passing through our system since our planet had sentient life, thankfully they weren't into conquest or "regime change"!

Rendezvous with Rama was a late career work and a classic too.
