Can you be sure your hard work will even reach the appstore? They change the rules of what is accepted every day.
Yes, you can be sure. Check the terms if in doubt. They change a few times a year - usually clarifications. Sometimes, though, it is a huge change of rules (like the in-app subscription thing).
Can you compile an app and send it to 20 ppl to test, or deliver it privately to a customer?
Yes.
Can you be sure that the devtool isn't sending information of your top secret app to be delivered directly to customer (and owned by your customer) to Apple?
Reasonably sure. Monitor the network traffic if in doubt.
As for transfering the built app... You have to use itunes while on android you can simply copy a file via any mass storage compatible system. The same goes for your music and you can sync with as many computers as you want and even use your device to keep the comps synced. (rsync anyone?)
Over the air transfer of apps - including custom built apps - works just fine.
As long as the lobbists are smarter than danes, then 'no' will be safer, right?;)
Actually, the success of non-elected governmental organs to push legislation through - even at opposition from a majority elected officials kind of frightens me./K
In denmark there has been quite an effort amongst small/medium sized companies to get the danish government to changes its vote in the EU council.
A majority from the opposition forced our representive (who is in favour of software patents) to "vote no" at the council meeting this last monday. But he got around the command by NOT forcing a vote... People are still pissed at that. I know that i am:|
So, we'll have a vote on a EU constitution later this year and unless someone convinces me otherwise, i'll assume that the system is fucked up and vote 'no'.
This would be the reason why we need TCO studies: Point to point comparisons are useless (compare tech salaries and MS wins, compare software prices and Linux wins).
This company made one, like other companies have done before. You can't refure the study with a single argument like "*ix techs are more expensive". It might be that a good tech costs the same for both ms and *ix? Or that the difference in that area is hidden by other costs elsewhere.
You just refuted the study. You must be really smart:D
Care to explain why it should be harder to support a given network setup on linux than windows? If you could give an example of an application (or type of application), then great:)
IMO, the only way you can reach this conclusion is if you have zero value for the unborn child. In fact, I'd go one farther and say the unborn child has more to lose, and the consequences are more severe for, than anybody in the equation.
Well, a fertilized egg has about as much value as any single live cell from any human body (except maybe cancer cells and weird growths). But then, I have to think that to accept abortion.
You state that you are against abortion as it is equivalent of murder. What i still can't grasp is why it is less of a murder in case of rape or danger to the mother. I REALLY want to know this. Who should decide the risk-level needed to get an abortion?
And sorry about the whole "rapist creating life"-argument. I didn't mean to offend, but to argue. However, your argument that the rapist does not create life is clearly void. If he didn't, then why is an abortion needed? (Disgusting example, but hey)...
It's not less of a murder but less pain for a victim of an already atrocious crime-- rape. The better question here is, why are you trying to suggest a rape victim should be forced to carry the offspring of her attacker? Doesn't that seem cruel to you?
Of course it is cruel. And i do not think that abortion is murder. I was just commenting on your different views on the topic - why one reason is so much different than the other. The decision to abort belongs with the woman as she alone faces the consequences of the procedure. If she thinks that abortion is no big deal (although i would doubt that anyone does), then fine by me.
What i don't like is irrational policies like 'it is ok to kill, but only when the mother is in jeopardy'. Why the double standard - either you accept abortion as a 'tool' or you don't? The reasons are irrelevant.
Your idea of charging the rapist with murder in case of abortion is pretty fun, considering that the rapist did nothing but create life:D (in case of the mother he did other things).
Something like this happened to me when i installed 1.0PR. I turns out that i had 3 versions of java installed (one was a 1.5 beta SDK). I uninstalled all of them, except the JRE and firefox worked fine.../B
Abortion as a method of birth control is murder. Abortion for rape/incest victims or those where the life of the mother is threatened, that's fine.
Why is it less of a murder if the pregnancy happens by rape. Or if the life of the mother is threathened - does the mother have more of a right to live?
In the country where i live, doctors recently declared that they were ready to sort fertilized eggs that have the gene for breast cancer. Now we're moving in the right direction:)
500MB of Java? woah! Well it was the SDK and not the JRE.
My point wasn't that we can all get it to work by reinstalling Java or whatever. My point was that _something_ changed between 0.9.3 and 1.0. It took me 10 minutes to figure out and fix, but somebody else might go back to IE. I probably should feed my experience to the firefox team before the real 1.0 version comes out...
But thanks for the feedback - i'll give the xpi based install a go:)
I just updated to 1.0 PR and Firefox refused to start - would just hog the cpu until I killed the process. This was using XP. I uninstalled 500MB of Java SDK and restarted. Now it works (except for the extension problems mentioned elsewhere).
Why can't firefox work with Sun Java? Or rather, why could 0.9.3 but not 1.0PR?
This could be the start of a reverse trend - MS needs it;)
Its not patents that promote investing - it is the idea of exclusivity that promotes it.
Proposal: Lets stop accepting patents. Inventors will have to have companies sign an NDA before showing their secrets. This happens ALL THE TIME anyway, when seeking funding from investors. Inventors are protected that way.
One benefit from this would be that obvious ideas can be duplicated in a 'clean room'. This would remove the problem for open source projects and companies currently suffering from submarine patents./K
I've seen one of those in silicon. They appear to aim for low power.

Yes it can, but usually it won't:)
Most memory accesses are cache line-refills and word-stores. The refills are often done on 64 bit busses anyway (maybe even 128b), and stores are not important latency-wise and can be grouped by a writebuffer to use the whole bus. So the internal register size has nothing to do with memory bandwidth...
And what if you only get to see the license AFTER you bought your EQ CDR?
That pretty much nulls it (morally, probably not legally):)
And what if the license is changed by a patch? Don't install the patch! Then what if unpatched clients can't play? Well, don't play then! If i can't play, can i at least get my money back? No!/K
Off topic: No one is forcing you to read it... And i had to post to take the +1 interesting away from parent - it was a mistake, i swear:)
On topic: This kind of reaction is seen all over the world. MS & friends sell expensive - but good - software. But if you have 10K workstations then the costs are prohibitive. So we see this change in the public area first - education first. This will continue, but the interesting question is when companies with large numbers of desktop installations will start to use free software (on the desktop).
This "corrupted TOC" thing happended to me twice yesterday - i was quietly trying to listen to two borrowed CD's (Pink and some compilation album, i think) on my workstation when i couldn't. This is usually a case of PC/Mac multimedia crap on the dics, so i tried to rip the tracks (on a pc), but couldn't. A google search revealed that CDDA extractor would do the job, and it did. So now i have both CDs without protection and the media snot. They kind of FORCE me to make copies by protecting the discs that way.
Oh, and if the sony cds can be played on a stereo, then they can be ripped.
/b
Note: I did not break the law, both master cds were originals. And according to the law i am allowed to copy all i want as long as i copy originals. Gotta love this country:) And gotta hate protected cds...
I've wondered about it ever since all the fuss about how to count votes. Can anyone rationalize why convicted criminals shouldn't be allowed to vote (or why they should)?
Disclaimer: OK, i'm european. Yes, other (euporean?) countries are also barring convicts from voting. I'm just trying to learn stuff. Feel free to mod me offtopic:)
I haven't used it myself, but some friends at university are using it for modelling both simple and complex logic. They seem happy about it - the learning curve is not as steep as 'real' HDL languages, so its ideal for teaching as well.
The problem, i understand, is synthesis (the process of making hardware out of your source files). JHDL seem to lack those, but things might have changed...
So remember to check out the synthesis tools before you commit to JHDL....
Except that the "real-world" analogy doesn't hold.
Port scanning and connections cannot be considered the same as trying all entrences to a house.. If it could, then it should be compared to trying on different shirts in a shirt-store: The Yankies offer connections on one port, whats wrong with trying other ports? If they didn't want any connections on these ports, then they should firewall them....
Apart from that; it doesn't show lots of intelligence to poke around right after a crime has been committed. Not that curiosity=stupidity, but with the luddidite FBI on the loose, it's just asking for someone to take away your toys.

I this case they made a small module with an ARM7 on it - running a .net runtime. :)
? family_id=607&OrderBy=part_no&Direction=AS C
c e=SS_GET_PAGE&nodeId=2060
.net or java as far as i know, but this would be a nice christmas project ;)
Did you even read the article
Anyway. There are some of this kind of modules around - some with java runtimes.
Atmel has a series of small footprint risc processors with flash, eeprom, sram and various pheripheral io. Easy to program, easy to use.

There is also a 6 pad PIC processor http://www.microchip.com/stellent/idcplg?IdcServi
None of these runs

How does it prune?
The newest? That would stop new connections.
The oldest? That would discard slow connections before they fully connect.
Of course, the router approach might work, but I think this new way is interesting.
