Oh, dont be so hard. Shit happens and happens everywhere. Hope you have not forgotten failures within US including Shuttle explosion.
They are trying, and eventually get there. Unlike their neighbours, who promote terr'rism, they are doing great job and they are moving in positive direction. Let's help and encourage them.
And yes, as somebody else has pointed out, dont forget that Nasa is full of Indians. Imagine, they all quit and join India, you will have no choice except *outsourcing* the space program to India.
Yeah.. sounds doubtful. Even if you account for the desktops for employees. They have close to 5700 employees. 1000$ per desktop might cost them less than 6 million dollars.
Though, I would love to see RIAA disappear as much as the next person, I serously doubt what this canpaign would achieve. RIAA (and all almighty power they have) would not have existed in first place if there were no need of them.
If they can be convinced not to make too much fuss about everything on this earth, maybe things will be OK.
You did it correct way. Just that multiplying 1000 makes it different. You should get answer of 0.85 mm or 850 micrometer.
May be future processors will be multiple tiny neuro networks operating at 350GHz.
One thing that gets overlooked with CORBA is the the stateful two way communication between the clients and the servers. The server can raise an event and tell the client to do something.
Yes, you are correct. Although, it has trouble with NAT. I remember one case, where we had to drop CORBA and go for designing our own protocol, because clients behind NAT would never recieve the event.
The article focuses on market conditions and forces as reasons behind CORBA's downfall. Having worked on CORBA, I can say there are some technical reasons too.
CORBA always required holes in firewall, more complicated to setup(as mentioned in article), poor/no load balancing/fault tolerance mechanism/ maintainability(probably this was not meant to be there, but very important for an ecommerce setup), poor QoS (this improved in CORBA 3.0 after Douglas Schmidt's and others contribution), security (though iiop over ssl appeared sometime later, security mechanisms for ecommerce were missing, that could bring collaboration from unknown consumers/providers.)
SOAP/xmlrpc address some of these issues nicely, and might become defacto tools for business to business integration. I had only one issue with it. The protocol is too verbose.
Dont forget that this all started with the finance minister Manmohan Singh (now prime minister of India) decided to bring liberal policies in 1991. US corporation jumped on it looking at the opportunity to ride on that wave an tap cheap educated mass of India.
It has gone well so far, but I dont think it will slow down. The way India is focusing on building infrastructure and providing services (for 1bn ppl and counting), it has a long way to go. Banks are using latest technology (ATMs, Credit cards, eCommerce, mCommerce), GSM networks and other data network services mushrooming all over the nation, railways reservation, online stock exchanges, VoIP services and so on is just beginning. You cannot ignore the fact that huge market like India will have internal demands to sustain its growth rate.
There was an article on slashdot few days back, which claimed that 'Apple's iPods are made in China by women who work 15 hours/day, make $50/month, and have to pay half of that right back to the company for housing and food.' probably the reason they pulled out of India.
India is becoming expensive in some parts like Bangalore. But Pune, Hyderabad, Delhi, Trivendrum are not that expensive.
I still feel, it is not a good decision, looking at huge market (over 1 billion people) of India.
Ozzie is also driving Microsoft to simplify its software...Complexity kills..
After watching monkey dance, Ozzie secretly consulted psychologists and specialists in mental hospital. He came to know that behaviours like Monkey dance, Broca's Aphasia, Hallucination can be caused due to damage to Parasympathetic Nervous System due to stress in workplace, resulting Extrinsic Motivation to throw chairs around.
It is learnt that Ozzie has secretly joined karate/kung fu classes, with focus on defending himself from flying chairs. He believes he can get black belt before he joins Microsoft.

I bet 200 bucks, that there will be dupe of this stroy within 2 days.
Now I call that 100% compatible;)
My Windows 2003 server gets break-in every fortnight. You guys worry too much!!

Aha, I see. That explains why he could visualize curvatures in different dimensions.
If you could add that 'I am wearing canadian underwear', you have great chances to win.
I am gunna f*cking kill all pr0n industry and I have done it before.
I am gunna f*cking kill EU. I have done it before, and I am gunna f*cking kill EU.

Yeah. Try this
Yeah. Even Microsoft also did it.
FP modded as +5 Insightful and redundant;)

my 2 cents
And what about my tin foil hat...

You forgot to mention 'AMD annonced, this chip will be 25% cheaper than that of IBM'.

There are 10 types of people...those who understand binary.. and those who dont..:P
Aha... They are doing plastic surgery on heart..
