Because I'd like to know what form this "revolt" is going to take. Are they going to stop developing with Silverlight in protest? Are they going to reverse engineer and distribute a compatible Silverlight product of their own? Are they going to stop talking up Microsoft to their buddies? Are they going to take to the streets with torches? Because "whine in forums" isn't really a synonym for "revolt."
I did a chess game-to-music algorithm for a university class back in 1993. The algorithm itself was written into an AREXX script for Amiga. AREXX was a neat scripting language for the Amiga; many software packages included an AREXX port, which exposed an API to the language, so that AREXX programs could control the software. So I had the script read chess notation from my word processor, parse it, calculate the music, and write the notation to my notation software, where I could print it, play it, change instrumentation, etc.
I actually used this type of workflow for several different algorithms. The early ones focused on the moves themselves, and later involved concepts like captures and threats. It was fun, and I got an A in the class, but I don't remember producing anything sublime.
I don't really understand why Google immediately went public with the information. They could have taken note of where Microsoft's searches were coming from and fed utterly crazy results to those requests. To the extent that Bing relies on Google's results, Bing would be discredited if--for example--it returned results about Amish porn to a query about where to buy a Ford Flex.
And here I am, considering dumping my smartphone for a good old fashioned dumbphone. Don't get me wrong, by HTC Hero is great as a web browser, a text messenger, a Wordfeud platform. If I want to see what time a movie is playing or what planets are visible in tonight's sky, the smartphone is awesome. But god help me if I want to make an actual phone call. If they thought repealing Don't Ask Don't Tell was going to be bad for military readiness...
...with a bit of effort we could make this Amazon's Three Wolf Moon T-Shirt (http://www.amazon.com/Mountain-Three-Wolf-Short-Sleeve/dp/B002HJ377A) of Books.
I mean, get a LOAD of this: "An analytical critique of the examples... is like taking all of Mozart's music and summarizing it into a 30 second sound bite... This book is not to be read in one sitting, but to be savored, chapter by chapter... I have found nothing to contradict or state any opposing comments." Brilliant parody!
If the book is half as crazy as the review, it's got to be worth fifty bucks.
It's no so much the name as a picture, I think. People are accustomed to seeing their Facebook pictures only (or at least primarily) in Facebook, and a phishing attack that involves that picture would be a lot more convincing.
MIDI just calls them 0 to 127. It doesn't give a rat's ass what note is actually played. MIDI also uses a serial data stream, so notes can never be played at exactly the same time, but yet some scores call for "chords" to be played.
Sarcasm, Inc., is based in Washington, Michigan, a bit north of Detroit. I, for one, will be paying the buck ninety-nine to support the Michigan economy. We're at over 13% unemployment, and we never recovered from losing our manufacturing economy. And now, my great state has once again started building something: punctuation! If you support open punctuation, you're destroying Michigan jobs!
Oh, I just visited their website, and there's no Linux version of the SarcMark software.
I figured it was a fake based on the content, but the subject lines recursively adding "Re:", like "Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Poster" clinched it. My cat does look at me with utter disinterest when I call her name.
I've been trying to find an answer to this, too. Professor Satish Nagarajaiah, professor of civil and environmental engineering at Rice University, said on Thursday that there could be enough down there to leak for years. So this isn't really a wait-it-out thing.
Check out the Sprint version of the HTC Hero. Doesn't have the boxiness that many Android phones have, and it's got more rounded corners than the iPhone. It should fit up there just fine.
While I was in seventh grade, I missed a week of school due to an illness. My first day back in English class, we were told spend the hour writing an essay about the evils of plagiarism. In retrospect, it's obvious what happened in my absence, but at the time I didn't know what the word meant, just that it was bad. So, I wrote an essay on the evils of satanism, substituting the word plagiarism throughout. Yes, I discussed the possibility of godless satanists taking over the country and forcing a satanist regime upon the American people. I don't think we got a grade for it, but the teacher thought it was pretty hilarious.
Well, being able to spell "kernel" for one would be a start...
If you spell it "kernal," it doesn't indicate ignorance; it indicates that you're between 36 and 42 years old and programmed in 6502/6510 machine language on a Commodore 64.
but will this lead to disparate Android UI's between platforms?
We're going to have that anyway with Android, and HTC is the king of alternate UI for Android. The benefits and drawbacks are debatable, but at some point there will be devices running Android that can't even be readily identified as Android devices by a casual user.
J.D. Salinger, Thomas Pynchon, and Mario Segale were hanging out together at a bar. Salinger says, "I'm sick and tired of these ambitious news people harassing me because I wrote a book." Pynchon replies, "Tell me about it, I just want to be left alone." Segale nods, downs his limoncello in one gulp, and says, "Mama mia! Vito, break-a these-a-guys' thumbs!"

...that I bought my Three Wolf Moon shirt on false promises, I will be quite put out.
Now, that's just mean.

But he was a candidate for a data recovery specialist position. He wanted to be able to put the recovery of his resume on his resume.

How the hell can you "sin" moments after you're born? I get that some people believe this, but I've never understood it.
You are just so cute, I could eat your right up!
