There is no Emergency Broadcast System, and there has not been one for a long time. It was replaced with the similar Emergency Alert System (EAS) starting back in 1997. The EAS, and the CMAS discussed in the article are both part of the Integrated Public Alert and Warning System (IPAWS) system that is bing put into place.
After a quick glance it appears the new system allows a single digital message with textual payload to trigger one or all of the EAS[1], the CMAS, and also the NOAA weather radio's alert system[2][3]. This new system should be capable of
[1] Which presumably will deliver the payload via TTS (Text-to-speech). [2] This already uses TTS. [3] Although if the EAS was triggered, the stations might use that instead.
When AJAX is implemented properly, the back/forward buttons can still work, and you can open links in new tabs just like normal. Even bookmarking still works properly. I'll admit that many sites do things wrong. I would not object to blacklisting JavaScript on such a site if they were written to still work without JavaScript enabled. But there are sites that get it right.
For example Gmail gets it more or less right. The back and forward buttons do the right thing, and you can right click on the links and open them in a new tab. The only thing I would complain about is that messages listed in list are not actually links. You can open them in a new foreground tab by holding control when you click them, but there currently is no way to pen them in a background tab.
However, in exchange for that it takes noticeably less time to open a message vs the basic html version of Gmail. You get new capabilities that are not possible with AJAX, such as having the inbox update automatically, without having a meta-refresh tag which would be irritating when scrolling through the list of messages. or being able to drag a message to a label to remove the inbox label, and add the one I dragged them to.
My point exactly. I clicked the reply button, and the did not go to a new page. I can still scroll up or down to refer to other messages, even expanding the hidden ones, all without losing what I am currently typing, and without needing to use a second tab to compose the reply. While I detest some of the nasty bugs that were present when D2 and D3 were introduced, I still remember using D1, and this is still much better than that experience.
That or the type of creativity needed to be able to pick a project out of an arbitrarily large number of possible projects, and deciding to do that.
I for example don't have much to show in terms of programming outside of work and school. I have all sorts of odd throwaway projects, but nothing really presentable. Why? Because I try to avoid re-inventing the wheel, so if I feel the need to do something, I'll look around for what is already done, and utilize what is out there, perhaps scripting together a few existing tools. Therefore to have a presentable project would require me to feel the need/desire to do something in an unexplored area, or to arbitrarily chose some unexplored area and work on it, or lastly to chose some area that already has software, and write my own.
The first case does not happen very often. The second requires a kind of creativity that I do not possess. The last would be the most likely, but writing "yet another" program in some existing field with several good programs is very unappealing, so the key would be to find area where none of the existing programs are particularly good, and that I have some particular interest in. I have yet to come across that.
Very true. For such a setup what are your options for a wired connection? As far as I can you you have 2 options. Basically you can either provide two sockets, or you can use a VLAN to separate the network, with known MAC addresses receiving one VLAN tag, and unknown MAC addresses receiving another.
Neither of those two work nearly as well as having two SSIDs. Granted you are probably still assigning a VLAN based on SSID, but that is a much better way to do it than a MAC address list that would need to be uploaded to all the edge switches.
Ethernet (IEEE 802.3) defines the physical layer (layer 1) and MAC layer (lower half of layer 2). Both of those are specific to wired connections. Wifi (802.11) defines the wireless physical layer and MAC layer. Again both of those are specific to wireless connections.
The MAC layer of both were deliberately designed to have similar frame formats, but they are most definitely not the same. You cannot simply emit a WIFI frame on Ethernet and expect it to work.
Both utilize the same LLC layer (upper half of layer 2) specified in (IEEE 802.2).
So, no Ethernet is not a Layer 2 technology, and it most definitely implies a wired connection.
Most states do not require gift cards to become unclaimed property. If you don't use them, the merchants will charge service fees to the card until the balance is zero, or until the card expires, at which point they are free to pocket the money. (Only a few states require the business to "escheat" the "abandoned" funds[1], for that to happen, the state must not permit fees, and must either forbid expiration, or specify that the money be processed as unclaimed funds upon expiration.)
So i would not b surprised if Groupon were not required to consider unused coupons as unclaimed funds.
Footnotes: [1] In that context "escheat" does not actually mean "escheat", since no state actually takes title to unclaimed funds until they have held it for the original owner (or heirs) for a very long time. Further the funds are not actually abandoned, since abandoned property either escheats immediately to the state, or becomes the property of the first person to find, possess, and make a claim to it, which would be the business who issued the gift card.
The trouble is that you likely get a substantially degraded experience on some sites. Many well developed sites use AJAX to speed up navigation[1], falling back on a full request when JavaScript is disabled. Similarly many sites implement convince features like jquery-based auto-completion which help make the site easier/faster to use, but again the site continues to function even with JavaScript turned off. You likely never even realize that you are getting a degraded experience because the site did not completely break.
That is a large part of the reason I actively do not recommend NoScript or similar solutions, favoring blacklisting known bothersome scripts, and using sadboxes and equivalent to guard against the unknown.
[1] You only need to download the changed portion, and browsers can update a page in place faster than re-rendering the whole page.
There are many embedded systems where the USB port can be either a host or peripheral.
Correct, but to be a legal USB device they must either: A) Use a b-type socket, and only enter host mode upon negotiating this via the USB On The Go (OTG) standard, OR B) Use the Mini-AB socket, or Micro-AB socket, which can detect if the A or B side of a USB cable has been plugged in, and only activate host mode if the A side was plugged in or a role reversal has been negotiated via the OTG protocol, like with the first case.
This device has a full size male A plug, which is never permitted to act like a host. The correct solution would be to replace it with either a full size A socket, and extend the case of the device (once it gets a case), or put a Mini or Micro AB port,.
While neural networks are a good solution, genetic algorithms can still be used in conjunction with them.
One possible training method for neural networks happens to be genetic algorithms. The genes being the link strengths, and the fitness function being say the percentage of correct results. (If you reach a sufficiently high level, you might want to change to minimizing uncertainty, with a fitness dropping exponentially if the correct percentage drops too low.)
In the alternative genetic algorithms can be used with other neural network training techniques, with the genetic algorithm selecting the number and arrangement of nodes, with fitness being related to the quality of the network after training.
A hybrid of both the above can also be used. I believe that is the approach critterding (an artificial life simulator) uses for the neural networks representing the creature's brains which are evolved much like the rest of the creatures body.
The CIA could only go after Foreign entities, with some limited exceptions. If it was a US citizen, it would be much more likely (but still rather unlikely overall) to find MI6 going after them on invitation of the US Government.
Of course with with FBI's much more obvious tailing and eavesdropping, the US Citizen would be very unlikely to notice MI6 or CIA operatives, should either being going after them.
The big problem with the ribbon is that there are many commands I know Microsoft Word or Excel has, but they are hard as fuck to find. These are commands that were in a logical place in the menu interface, and were stuck seemingly haphazard on one of the ribbon tabs. Not to mention that a fair number of commands were present in Office 2007, but could only be accessed by adding them to the "Quick Access Toolbar", since Office 2007 ribbons were not editable.
I frequently end up resorting to using the help feature to find out where a command has been hidden.
Technically that should be "most landlines" in the United States. Supporting pulse dialing is optional for the phone company, but they support it in most areas because it is no extra work for them. However, there are a fair amount of PBX systems out there with pulse dialing disabled. Hotline circuits (aka automatic ringdown circuit) obviously do not support pulse dialing, since they don't support dialing at all. There are a few other cases too.
Nevertheless, on the vast majority of U.S. landlines pulse dialing still works.
What can be done though is dual stack with Carrier grade NAT on IPV4.
The little problem with carrier grade NAT is that it breaks peer-to-peer connections. That should be overcome quickly enough by peers being addressable via IPv6.
The big problem with carrier grade NAT is that the number of ports limits the number of IPV4 connections that can be NATted behind a single public IPv4 address. If servers fail to switch over to being dual stack then this only delays the inevitable. However, if servers switch over, then traffic will travel via IPv6, and thus less traffic that needs to be NATted, making it possible to support more users behind each public IPv4 for the servers that are slow to become dual stack.
The key though is to start this early by setting up dual stack even on ISPs that don't yet need carrier grade NAT. This will help mitigate the problems caused by carrier grade NAT on IPv4, by making more machines IPv6 addressable. Any two IPv6 addressable machines would notice no change if one or both is switched to carrier grade NAT for IPv4.
I believe he is referring to the Apple convention of leaving applications running even when there are no visible windows. If I remember correctly all apps are intended to have this behavior. In practice not all apps do. Apps that are not document based often quit when the last window is closed. An example of that is the System Preferences app.
Also in California, judges are becoming so annoyed that companies are still including non-compete clauses in employment contracts that some are now voiding the entire employment contract rather than just the offending non-compete clause.
Really? Voiding the entire contract could result in exposing all of a company's trade secrets, since voided contracts really cannot be considered a reasonable step to protect the secrecy. That is one hell of a move by those courts...
For cabin windows, replacing them is a definite possibility. The cockpit windscreen is only particularly controversial one. These days though with TCAS, ILS CAT IIIb, and the other existing systems, a nominal airline flight does not really require terribly much use of the cockpit windscreen.
The Windscreens are still there in part because GA and military flights may not be tracked by Civil ATC, and may not be equipped with TCAS or equivalent, leaving manual sighting as the only way to avoid them. Without ILS IIIc, the windscreen is also still essential to landing procedures.
Both of those usages could be replaced rather easily with artificial view screens. Yes it would cost a fortune, especially considering airworthiness, but it could be done.
The problem area remains non-nominal flight. If partial equipment failure of any kind occurs, the windscreen's importance jumps drastically. In the worst case, an airliner can still be landed with near complete loss of avionics as long as the control surfaces are still operational. That would not be a fun time to be a pilot, but nevertheless, that is a deliberately designed possibility. Trying to land with failed avionics and absolutely zero visibility on the other hand is essentially impossible. Therefore, electronic view-screens should really be a completely separate subsystem, not tied at any point to the rest of the avionics. Further, they should be designed fail-operational to the greatest extent possible, much like the fly-by-wire control surfaces are designed. That is not easy nor cheap.
The main way they are advocating is an app store for the old apps. That is of course insane, since many important old programs are now owned by companies that don't even know they own the program! In practice you will just look for a copy somebody has "helpfully" extracted and posted to the web.
The design of that new settings application looks to be based almost entirely on OS X's setting system, which actually is not bad, the few times I've wanted to change OS X settings, I only had to guess one or two times to find it (unless the setting just completely lacked a GUI.)
Mono has support for the language C# 4.0 targeting the CLI. The libraries may not be fully caught up with the libraries that ship with.NET 4.0, but the most important pieces are there. I'm not sure why you think otherwise.
Even Mono for Android is advertised as supporting a subset of.NET 3.5 (which uses C# 3.0) which includes all the languages features you mentioned.
Mono for Android even uses a Visual Studio plugin, making Visual Studio its preferred development environment.
"the latest web browsing technology" (Most likely Firefox, but possibly a Webkit based browser)
"a Microsoft Word compatible Office Suite" (LibreOffice or perhaps OpenOffice.org)
"advanced graphical manipulation programs" (the GIMP)
"3D raytracing software" (Probably POV-Ray, despite that not being Open Source)
"dozens of exciting 3D games" (Oddly I don't know of dozens of exciting open source 3D games. Maybe a dozen in total that qualify as exciting. Many of the best Open source games I am ware of are not 3D.)
What does sound interesting is that:
Commodore OS will also be classic Commodore compatible, able to run classic 8-bit, 16-bit and 32-bit era software via emulation. A beautiful user interface allows you to easily peruse games for the Commodore PET, Vic20, C16, C64, C128 and AMIGA.
It sounds like they may be shipping the ROMs for those systems as part of this OS, which is interesting.
Any device that uses uses a (modifed) version of Android Operating system May claim to be running Android. If they meet the requirements of the Computability Definition Document for Android X.Y, they are permitted to claim that they are Android X.Y compatible. This has not changed and will not change.
If you want early access to the latest versions of the OS, or if you want to include the official Google Apps or the Android Market, then you have additional rules. Google has simply tightened these rules. If you want to go crazy and create something weird you still can. You simply must wait for the source release, or base your changes on the previous version.
For some examples of excellent slides, watch this presentation by Lawrence Lessig: http://randomfoo.net/oscon/2002/lessig/free.html He uses many, many slides, but they are often very short, a single sentence, frequently less. His slides punctuate his speech and help keep you from getting bored. They would not really be meaningful in printed form, but that is fine. He has many
For another good style: any one of Steve Job's keynotes. Again though, the slides are not really worth much without the speech, but in this case it is fine,because several dozen blogs will have their own summaries of the presentation available within only a few hours after it ends.
The following table represents what is possible in theory. Actual support does differ based on board manufacturer.
. . . ..Type of CPU . . ..AM3+ AM3. AM2+ AM2. . AM3+ YES. YES. NO.. NO.. S O AM3. YES. YES. NO.. NO.. C K AM2+ ??.. YES. YES. YES. E T AM2. ??.. YES. YES. YES.
I suspect that the two I have marked with question marks will have a value of "NO", since doing that would allow AMD to drop support for DDR2 from the new processor designs.
