Hmm, where can you get that, not a bad combination.
It gets you drunk, wakes you up (twice with the chicory), cleans your gallstones, cures the depression that your hangover will bring, and calms you stomach.
Well, actually, in that mix I'd probably want to take away the coffee.
I might not have, but my mother has, and we were all "diagnosed" as adhd. Oh, and she also worked in special ed dealing with adhd kids.
There are some legitamate adhd kids, it's just that it's become over-diagnosed.
And, I have taken care of a kid (not my own) who was (guess what) all diagnosed with adhd. Amazing what a little attention and set boundaries did for him.
For example, ADD/ADHD could be an adaptation to rapidly changing perceptions and environments. To those who do not have this, it's a bunch of kids who jump around and seem to incoherantly spot a million different things at a rate well over what they could. Thus, they're a "problem child" to be fixed with meds.
No.
There have always been hyperactive kids from time immemorial.
ADD/ADHD is caused by the following factors:
1) parents who are unwilling/don't care enough to discipline their children (and therefore push the problem onto doctors/the school system), which is caused by: a) children as fashion accessories ("it's the thing to do") b) the "me" generation ("I just don't have time for my kids"). c) the breakdown of the 2 parent home resulting in overworked single parents who just can't/won't deal with the problem. d) society's general acceptance of all of the above 2) big pharma, who are so willing to basically provide legal amphetamines/barbituates to control this "problem" 3) doctors, who only spend 15 minutes max on a patient, and therefore are so willing to prescribe said drugs 4) government (including local, ie the school system), which is all too happy to look away.
I'm not sure if you're correct on this. I'm pretty sure Atheros provides the HAL to the madwifi project (it seems to be implied by the link following).
The purpose of the HAL is because the chipset can be set to transmit on *any* frequency, and so, in order not to violate FCC requirements, a binary only HAL exists to prevent this.
Also, I'm pretty sure an employee of Atheros provides development assistance to the madwifi project.
But, this article does lots to explain why a BSD branch was done for madwifi and then merged back a couple of weeks ago.
I had to put point hitbox.com to 127.0.0.1 to make Mozilla work.
and why is this a bad thing? i adblock hitbox.com (and tell firefox to refuse their cookies, but there are so many damn hitbox.com sites that one invariably sneaks in).
but then again, i don't like to be tracked without my knowledge.
I'm about to build a Mythtv box and take FULL control of what I watch as I hear Mythtv busts ads automagically.
yes and no. it's pretty good at getting most of the ads, but occasionally messes up.
of course, i've just installed it a couple of weeks ago, and am using the default commercial flagging routines (just to see if it works). there's not much documentation on how to use it, and there are 3 schemes it can use to commercial detect.
i haven't tried logo detection yet, but it sounds the most promising (if it works, and assuming you record things from channels which put their logos on them).
What about AAC? Linux can deal with it via faad/faac, and it's an improvement on MP3.
And for the record, Ogg is not a superior format. Ask the ffmpeg developers (who know a thing or 2 about codecs/file formats), why not. Unfortunately, the old mailing list archives are gone, but there has been many a good thrashing given to Ogg on those lists.
Basically, seek support is a nightmare, and stream chaining and multiplexing is even more horrible.
Think about the conditions that led up to the Great Depression, i.e. everyone trading on margin with no way to pay it off = people overextending their credit to buy houses now. And, the old adage (supposedly attributed to Joseph Kennedy) that when shoeshine boys start talking about the market, it's time to get out (which turned out to be true in the dot-bomb era too, although it was waiters and barbers who did the talking). Nowadays, everyone's talking about real estate.
Those who ignore the lessons of history are doomed to repeat it. I see a world of hurt coming to the housing market soon, especially as interest rates inevitably rise, even on the 30 year termed debt instruments.
Would I invest in real estate now, especially as I live in the DC area, which Mr. Greenspan specifically identified as having "froth", no way. Am I happy that I did 4 years ago, the answer is an unqualified yes.
I had bought a Dell Dimension with XP home pre-installed. I booted it up once (just to check if it booted), but didn't allow it to register. I then wiped the hard drive and installed linux.
I have an old Dell laptop (366 Mhz PII) running Windows 98. Since I had just gotten an iPod as a present and needed to run iTunes, I needed a machine that runs XP (thanks, Apple). I used the CD to upgrade the laptop to XP since I figured I had technically paid for XP when I bought the new Dell.
So, after reading the previous/. article, I connected to Windows update, while looking for a spare CD-RW to put Ubuntu on should it fail.
But it takes about 4-6 weeks of taking it 2 to 3 times a day to kick in. Not very useful if you have people with severe depression, and general depressives who tend to not be the sort who will keep to a regimen.
We kept trying to put our finger tips on the scanner assuming it was a finger print scanner, but it seems its main function is to check finger length.
Ah, so that's the *real* reason.
It's so Disney employees know who to hit on. Every one knows about the reputation of those Florida girls. And they have many gay employees (ask the Baptists who boycotted them).
I was out in silicon valley (working on interactive TV at the time), and I call BS on a couple of little "facts" from the article:
Clark: I viewed the IPO as a marketing event.
The reason netscape whent public when it did was plain and simple. Clark wanted a bigger boat. Some BSD (big swinging dick), i forget who, had purchased a boat larger than clark's, and clark had to outdo him.
Giannandrea: The concept that was unusual was doing a beta
you have got to be freaking kidding me. netscape invented the beta? wrong. a publicly available (ie not a controlled) beta, yes.
Andreessen:... The Valley was kind of dormant then. Apple Computer was the walking dead.
wtf are you talking about, marc? interactive television was something *everyone* was looking at. and the set top boxes were diskless power macs running some obscure new software named quicktime. i'm not a mac guy, but even i had a power mac. oh, and it had this little thing called a tcp/ip stack (which you had to buy from trumpet for windows since WfW was what was out at the time).
Treuhaft:... Rob McCool, basically dropped out of college, and he would show up for work in shorts and tube socks and a Megadeth T-shirt. We all think of it as just the way the Valley is now. But I'd been in the Valley for a while, and I hadn't seen that.
what? netscape invented the dressed down silicon valley dress code too? at oracle we had people in ripped jeans and/or shorts and tie dyes (the reference to jerry garcia's death the day of the netscape IPO reminded me of this).
the real big deal about netscape was that it had rsa security, so you could do things like bank online (wells fargo was one of the first to use secure sockets for financial transactions).
and then there's all the previously mentioned stuff about mosaic being in existence, as well as the CERN webserver.
because i know most of my wasted time is diagnosing computer screw ups caused by my co-workers downloading spyware, viruses, and screwy active x controls.
so that should be added to the "time wasted by using the internet" category, right?
winter's coming in a couple of months, and with the price of gas/oil being what it is compared to electricity, you can now heat your house and have a cutting edge machine at the same time.
netgear doesn't supply the wireless drivers, atheros helped with development (assuming a wg511t) or conexant (i believe) if using a wg511 (internsil chipset). and vendors using both components have done their damndest to break them via proprietary features ie netgear's XR and AR, turbo mode (which finally works in linux), software mac address setting, etc. and the biggest pet peeve, switching chipsets and keeeping the same card name/version.
When I read the topic, I thought, cool, Office can actually fill out useful forms. Like 1099s, VAT, 1040s...
I guess I was misled by Microsoft's commercials about being great for small business. Adobe seems ahead of MS here (I believe if you e-file, you generate a PDF and send).
After reading the summary/comments, I think maybe MS's new marketing strategy should be:
Slashdot Mirror
So now Rimmer can blog his Risk campaign book *and* play at the same time.
Then again, he's too much of a smeg head to multitask like that.
Clarence Darrow beat him to that explanation many years beforehand.
See the Scope's Monkey Trial, particularly the section about Darrow's cross examination of Bryant.
Actually, anyone arguing for or against ID should refresh their history of the case since it's basically being fought again.
Hmm, where can you get that, not a bad combination.

It's pretty much there in the form of Knoppmyth
Or, if you're using Fedora, the pre-packaged RPMs from ATRpms make installation on a traditional linux box *much* easier.
Imagine if they had some content besides a few television shows and videos...
yeah, if i could only find a way to resell porn through iTunes, i'd make a mint (because you *know* that's coming next).
I might not have, but my mother has, and we were all "diagnosed" as adhd. Oh, and she also worked in special ed dealing with adhd kids.

There are also other issues at play here. Namely, you get a tax deduction for your mortgage interest and property taxes paid.
The problem is people are relying heavily on ARMs and cashing out their equity resulting in them being upside down on their investments.

... check out Downside's Internet Deathwatch and see how many "charts not available" there are.
how about using doxygen? although it's not integrated into the IDE, and i'm not sure there's probably a windows port for it.
I find it very useful for browsing variable references/uses.
Since it just generates HTML docs, it probably could be integrated into VS (or just use your web browser).
I was surprised my copy actually validated.

MIPS was spun off years ago. It's mostly used in embedded hardware (although fighting with ARM based systems there).
Its very good for low power consumption chips for applications that can't have a fan.
Although, I still can't figure out all those damn ABI's even after playing with it for a couple of years.
