Ya know, I went out to a bar once and saw this beautiful blue-eyed brunette. Got her a few drinks and one thing led to another...she did not ask me to enumerate which chicks i've been with - she just expected me to make her a woman...
you get the picture
Being asked for code samples in an interview is bullshit. It has never happened to me.
Go find another employer, one who will discuss previous projects, pitfalls, solutions, science, the passion behind what you like to do and what you'd bring to the organization, stuff that demonstrates your ability and skill. No need to kiss and tell.
they only produce power when the curtains are closed.
closed, or even at an angle. Also, during very hot days, when you you use (waist) the extra watts on your AC, you don't want the sun heating up your room (coming in from your wide open window). Win-win.
Many have suggested yaml, which can obviosuly be read on any programming language.
You are obviously going to invest some time on coding the persistance layer of your app. Take a look at http://datamapper.org/, an ORM for ruby. If you need a more scalable or robust data storage system in the future, just get another adapter (for a DBMS, for instance) and change zero code.
This would work on any OS, and from the sound of it pretty much solves your problem...except for the "having to learn ruby" if you don't already do.
My understanding is that yes, the protocol will remain the same, but features will be added. Old stuff remains there, while new ones help new application developers make better/easier/faster queries.
You are right, I guess it is in fact a vulnerability of "AMD's SVM/Pacifica virtualization technology", not the OS...
Anyways, "The Black Hat presentation will occur on the same day Microsoft is scheduled to show off some of the key security features and functionality being fitted into Vista."
After reading this, I can't stop imagining
Bill: So you can see the super cool security features bundled with Vista. Click, click, click...
Audience: woooooow...
SCREEN TURNS GREEN
Audience in awe...
Bill: We've changed the Blue Screen of Death. It is now Green, less intrussive.
With these credit card enabled parking meters, how are you going to know that this would be legal version.
Well, I guess you really couldn't. You fall into the same problem as online payments...
Laws around this would have to be well thought of. The city + credit card companies would have to give you some sort of assurance.
Also have all those super-friendly "parking ticket officers", who's job just got so much easier, check the meters periodically.
I personally don't have a car, but I've heard people complaint about not having enough change. It's a pain in the arse.
Why they haven't implemented a credit card system? Beats me! Imagine the scenario:
1. Park your car.
2. Swipe your card.
3. Enter a pin code (make it hard to guess)
4. Go do your thing, forget about the meter.
5. Come back to meter and enter code from step 3.
6. Get reciept printed out of meter.
7. Drive away without a parking ticket.
Unless you are a moron and entered "9999" as your code, this could work.
Not to mention it doesn't have OO.o's logo, which visualy marks who they are.
I'll be happy to donate once it looks professional, not more professional: professional.

CSV works fine though

good link...the summary looks like was posted by wolfram themselves. "Look how cool, and click on all of my links"
Not open, not interested. Sorry.

Actually, there is some code out there: http://asmith.id.au/mod_libpq.html
