Oracle are a bunch of morons with bad customer service.
we had a problem where local and remote connections to a fully patched 10G Database were timing out. it took down a major operation and the backup DB was having the same problem. Oracle blamed AIX, AIX blamed Oracle. we got them on a call together and instantly, the AIX support guy sounded way more knowledgeable about what was happening. we asked Oracle if there was a person that knew AIX better on their staff... he said there was but he was off that day. The director of infrastructure said "I have the number of 'so and so' SVP at Oracle, would it help if I contacted him to get the resources we needed on this call" and the Oracle support guy got offended and became very rude.
In the end, the AIX support folks figured out that every time Oracle was authenticating a connection to the database, it required a DNS lookup to get the network hostname of the AIX frame, even for local connections. We had a Domain controller down that day and that caused the connections to time out, even though we had two controllers defined for DNS. the only way around this problem was to use the Hosts file, but that becomes a pain because every entry will need to be validated every so often because if one entry is not correct in the hosts file (does not even have to be the DNS resource) the connection times out. We looked at some of the 11G environments we have and were able to replicate the problem there as well so Oracle has not fixed this issue in their latest release either.
I then feed my Buzz stuff to Facebook and Twitter using Twitterfeed.
I get my picasa stuff shared to those I want to share it with and I get my blog stuff shared out to the widest audience I can. it works great.
Social Media is about distribution of info. your social graph probably extends across sites... might as well use a tool that will distribute your content to all of those sites. Buzz fits the bill perfectly.
Is a functional programming language any more inherently reliable since you are trusting the compiler anyways? Does it effectively matter if the code can be "provably without side-effects" if you are trusting the implementation via a black box on a different level? Honest question from a noob.
Linq is not meant to be sql compatible, it is meant to be an interface to any data format you have and it uses sql syntax that most developers are familiar with.
We use them for RN charting and med dispensing. physicians can use them if they like but most of them like to sit down and chart on a laptop rather than on a WOW/COW. we also have super thin tablets for them to use to chart on if they wish. most like the ultra portable laptops though because of the keyboards.

And? it is a stupid point.
Or, someone could read about the idea and see it is considered bunk.

it is only renewable if it is used in such a manor.
One just needs to look at Easter Island to see how "renewable" trees were to the natives.
only to those too stupid to leap ahead with out thinking.
N-O.
We are never ready for any major disaster. It is silly to think we ever will be given our inability to agree on such major planning initiatives.
which is what we ended up doing.
Power outage caused the Domain controller to go down.
Oracle should not be using DNS for local connections.

nice that it is so reliable and all.
many decades?
Try many millenia.

you really are a sucker.
My analogy is EXACTLY what Goldman and other investment banks did.
and the small town guy could not purchase good made by slave labor in china.
actually... they were selling a car with no brakes... claiming it is safe, then taking out a life insurance policy on the sucker they sold it to.
no... perl is:
print "$1.00";
watch the capital letters and semi-colons... and remember... white space is meaningless.

Python is FOSS so there is no black box.
Actually... I was thinking no... but only because they are all sexual deviants and have seen those kinds of Pythons in their Orgy Clubs.
since the memristor is a new fundamental componant of electronics, one would have to assume it has teh same durability as a transistor, resistor, etc.
try type checking that sql string in your code.
uhhh.....

I didn't think anything could be done worse than Centricity. (Hierarchical DB with COBOL and SNO-BOL? really???)
what are you talking about? Most hospitals use WOWs/COWs.
Sentilian sign on is invisible to the user as long as the application they are accessing is set up properly and implements CCOW correctly.
As far as paper... it takes up a lot of room, costs a lot of money to store and is very difficult to search
