I think it's very clear that most of the truck drivers will be replaced by autonomous trucks driven by software. Human drivers need to sleep, robots don't. As our storage warehouses are already mostly on the wheels and logistics is optimized that the required goods arrive just in time, all this makes sense.
The change might even be very fast. 30% of truck cargo might be driven by robots in the end of the decade.
I'd always have liked that I could transfer a file or an stdout/stdin stream directly in the middle of an open ssh session. Also the file transfer / stream should be carried over nested ssh connections.
Imagine that you could just pipe the output from a command into some magical ssh command in a remote machine and your ssh client would ask where you would like to pipe the stream in your local machine.
It's just that in Finland everybody, his mother and his six years old son has a mobile phone. Even some our dogs have a gsm module in their necklace. It's that simple =) Also quite rare percent of us use a prepaid mobile deal. Most of us gets a bill from the phone company every month and pays it. People don't need a credit card for that, it's just a reqular invoice.
No, you are not immortal. You can insure your ship but not the equipment you buy to your ship (which usually are much more valuable than your ship). You can get killed: You'll lose your head implants, which are not cheap. Even if you have the money to buy new ones, you need to fly around the galaxy to find the replace parts (which takes time). Yes, you will be reborn to a new body (clone) and retain the skills you have learned, but if you run out of your clone, you will lose your skills (yes, that could happend).
So, you could get beated up so badly that you lose everything you have ever gained in the game. I don't know about you, but if I would have played for a year or two and I would lose everything, I propably would just leave the game alone and go out to get some fresh air;)
This might be a valid reason in US, but there's no way that can hold when iPhone gets launched in europe. For example, in Finland most of the phones are sold without any carrier plan. You buy your phone and you buy your carrier/ISP plan as you like.
Also phones here (at least in Finland) don't get customised by the carriers/operators. The person downloads the 3rd party programs to his/her phone as he heeds and that is a requirement for an SDK.
Have anybody ever tried developping software for Windows Mobile 5? It's fracking simple. It took me about four hours from scratch to develop a custom made gps software for my WM5 PDA with c#.
Microsoft knows how valuable good development tools are. That's about the only thing they have done right (in my opinion).
Agile methods is the way to go. Thight feedback loops, short iterations and all the normal agile stuff ensures that your client gets what he really needs:)
It's not common that a kid asks for own cellphone with reason "because all other kids has also one". Also it's not common that that reason is taken down and the request is denyed.
But when the majority of the kids has one, then the culture, communication and habits form to rely on cellphones, so a kid without one is forced to borrow other friends cellphones to make the needed calls to support the daily social life of his friend community.
So think twise when you deny a cellphone from your kids. He might actually need it or he will be dropped outside from his friends.

Who wants to use some crappy LCD instead of a decent optical sensor within a SRL camera?
What do you mean by this contract system? I've heard something about it, but nothing exact.
Here in Finland one can by whatever phone he wishes and then he can choose whatever service provider he likes. He even can change his service provider to another without that his gsm number changes at any given point in time.
But even if you are blind, you can still hear what you are talking (via direcly from your mouth into your inner ear, or the echo from the surroundings).
More interesting would be that if one lacks every possible sense, so that he can't see, can't hear, can't feel etc, would he still develop the self-awareness? It would be hard to tell, because he could not communicate, but that doesn't make the question less important.

I knew I shouldn't have asked Wolfram Alpha The Answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe and Everything.
Now imagine a Beowulf cluster of those...

According to the tutorial this api relies on code generation, which I personally don't like.
Does anybody know any good C++ RPC library which uses templates and which does not need code generating with any external tool nor executable?
C++ templates allows metaprogramming, so such tools should be able to be developped, but I don't know any. Does anybody know any?

MediaWiki is not a good platform for this. You should create own software which is designed for this kind of usage.
