If you look at studies like Carpalx (http://mkweb.bcgsc.ca/carpalx/), the Patrick Gillespie layout analyzer (http://patorjk.com/keyboard-layout-analyzer/) or even just one of the layout homepages that compares itself to others (http://normanlayout.info/compare), then you'll see there are more efficient keyboard layouts than Dvorak without it's traumatic learning curve. If nothing else, Colemak is widely adopted by all but Microsoft and is probably a better efficiency choice than Dvorak.
Re-read the article, but replace all instances of "Facebook" with "MySpace." This is exactly the opportunity I was looking for! Now it's time for me to move all the money I made from MySpace into the big next thing, Facebook. I'm so glad this is happening, I was starting to think MySpace couldn't go any higher.
Yes, you can switch from Tomato to DD-WRT. Just upload DD-WRT through the Tomato firmware uploader. I've done it on my WRT54GL. A few WRT models have customized mini DD-WRT images to start with as an initial flash, so check out your specific model first.
I bought 2 different models of Asus routers that were b/g. They worked great with DD-WRT for almost exactly 2 years, then they died a week apart from each other. Bricks. I replaced them with a WRT54GL. My backup for it is a WRT350N that someone gave me. That's right, the ol' 54GL is more dependable than the fancier 350N.
I'd consider Asus again, but only if I could convince myself to buy 2 so I could have a standby for when the first died.
Just consider this... do you really need the N spectrum? I don't personally do a lot of file transfers between computers on my network where speed is a consideration serious. If I was to saturate the whole allowance of G trying to hit the Internet, that's still more than what my outgoing cable internet service provides with Time Warner.
Moreover, to get full N, you have to broadcast 2.4 and 5 spectrums, and only one of the two goes far enough to get out of a room and through walls, so you effectively have G speeds in most N implementations anyway. Read about it... lots of people turn N off and go back to G, even when they have access to the fancier feature.
You can't leave out the fact that Google has advertising, analytics, feed proxying, and blog hosting everywhere - not just on *.google.com. Even if you don't click on ads, they can still profile your traffic patterns and sell their research findings.
It seems to me the people who post the videos in the first place are the copyright violators, not Google. One of the things that might come out of this case is websites posting the IP address of the poster along with the post - then it'll be a lot easier to go right to the copyright infringer. Maybe next Viacom should sue DVR manufacturers for them making a copy, or people who save copies of shows on VCR. The home copies aren't making a pay-per-click ad profit, but they're probably cutting in to DVD sales. Copyright law is outdated anyway.
If there's a conspiracy, they forgot to blur out the nuclear power plant for Orlando. Perhaps the owners of the other facilities asked Google to blur them. Seems like a nuclear facility would be a good thing to make an exception to the rule for.
Now I'll just sit back and wait for someone to shame me for pointing it out so "they" can go rush to blur it.
I've used Business Plan Pro. I was bugged at first that it really just seemed to be all open ended questions with big text blocks to fill in the answers to questions, but it was at least good at asking some tough questions that scared me out of my business idea.
I figured the most important part of starting a business is having way more money available than you need. Everyone has their optimal ideas of how money will flow in for great ideas, but you need to be able for that not to happen for longer than you expect and cover your cost overruns along the way, because there's always going to be unexpected expenses.
To get the skills you're wanting, you'll have to work through college. You should do that anyway to put experience with academics for a more well rounded resume.
You should go to college to make sure you mature intellectually beyond high school. In educational learning theory, you're developing your metacognition so you're able to critically analyze your progress in whatever you do. I'm convinced going to university won't give you skills, it gives you a club card that allows you access to the levels of other elites. Unless you own your own business, nobody will really ever respect you in the job world with a high school diploma and a trade school (where you would actually learn skills) degree.
It's unfortunate you got so many junk answers to your query (e.g. "resign", gmail,.mac, etc). I had a server running ~15,000 accounts on a Pentium 133 with IMail 7 a while back. It wasn't pretty, but mail got sent and received as it should.
Hula claims to scale pretty well, integrate with ClamAV and SpamAssassin, and have lots of other cool gimicks for calendars and such. For 1 million accounts, I'd get some sort of dedicated spam/virus filter, though.
I firewalled about 200 machines, on three private subnets with a single PII 233 using OpenBSD at my university lab manager job, 3 years ago. I just ripped 5 NICs out of some down machines to put into one. Even when we did Ghosting, the CPU on the machine would just barely register anything was even happening.
Nobody wants to use a PII machine anymore or the 8GB HD it had, but it made a great firewall. The only thing I did that wasn't part of building from scrap was the 80GB HD I put in for Snort/ACID and other misc traffic logs. I setup software RAID1 in case one of the old 8GB hard drives went bad, and let it sit under the patch panel.
I quit the job 2 years ago. When I went back to visit last month, they were still using the same OpenBSD machine with the same install of OpenBSD. The only open ports were 443 and 22 and they were only available on one NIC that was hard wired to the managers office CAT5 panel, so they really haven't had much reason to upgrade other than the worry about the aging power supply.
I have to rebut to defend Netflix. I happen to live by the post office that serves the PO Box for the Orlando Netflix warehouse. I consistently get very good turnaround unless I get to a popular movie on my list like when Kill Bill came out, in which case they just send the next movie on my list. If I mail on Monday, they get it on Tuesday, I get the movie back on Wednesday or Thursday, depending on when my individual USPS delivery guy gets it sorted into his route.
Went to the top floor of my mom's house and instead of watching the New York ball drop, we dropped a Y2k non-compliant computer out the window. Then we walked down to the local high school, walked up to the top of the bleachers, and dropped it again off the back. Then we beat it into little tiny bits with sledge hammers. The old monitor we brought too didn't make as much noise as we thought it would. Then the cops came and we ran. It was fun.
July 3, 2000, went to a gun shop bought a bottle of smokeless gun powder, a 2 foot long fuse, and got a free empty Co2 cartridge. Filled the cartridge with powder, plugged it with the fuse, and epoxy'd the fuse into the opening.
July 4, 2000, sometime at night in an abandoned baseball field:
Took a computer out to the field with the Co2 cartridge in the middle and the fuse out one of the floppy drive bays. Lit the fuse and ran for a 1/4 mile. We still felt the concussion.
Everything that was soldered onto the motherboard fell off. Apparently the heat from the explosion flash melted everything off. A side of the cartridge hit the bottom of the hard drive and buckled the sides and plates inside. It was done in a way that I don't think a vice and sledge hammer could have done. The wimpy cover caught a bit of the cartridge too, but it just got an indentation from it and flattened out (cheap one piece coverall case). All the sides of the case buckled, too. I saved a stick of the ram and the hard drive, but I think they were lost as part of getting married.
I can't disagree more with a unified desktop. It might make it easier to for Redhat to manage a distribution or something, but the whole reason Gnome was created was people didn't like KDE. KDE users use KDE cause they don't like Gnome.
I loaded up Null last week, ran Gnome, and was not very impressed with the changes. I think I'll stick with Slackware or Mandrake. They don't change the interface.
You think 3 months is bad... I'm looking at two domain names. One expired Aug 30, 2001. The other expired Jan 10, 2001, over a year now. I tried talking to a rep in their little live java chat and to someone on the phone. All they tell me is the domains are on registrar hold, but I know that already. When I ask when they'll be released or why it's taking so long, they tell me they both can't and won't tell me why, not even when I'm holding credit card in hand.
I've noticed that some domains I had with register.com that I let expire were gone in a couple days from WHOIS, yet ones registered by netsol continue to linger. I'm not the least bit curious why netsol is the largest holder of domains... they don't ever remove them!
The whole decision is silly. All thawte is doing is loosing business. If a terrorist wants to encrypt a webpage, it's easier and faster to just set up OpenSSL/mod_ssl and sign your own cert.
If the visitor is another terrorist looking to download encrypted content, all he has to do is click OK to the browser box that says it's not trusted and then the encrypted stream of content will begin.
All thawte is doing is removing the part where the cert is trusted. I doubt a terrorist would care.

I don't think you're missing anything. What bugs me most is that it seems to me like the Gemini table is a feature *enhancement*, yet they're doing everything they can to *remove* it from the distribution.
I'm waiting till Nusphere releases their copy of 4.0 till I download anything. By then I might have already started looking at PostgreSQL.
I got an email from a professor at school with that garbage in the subject. I just mailed him back to let him know he probably had a virus. I was using Mozilla at the time, so I'm not worried about whatever might have been hidden in a javascript tag of the email.
That is not only true for software development, but every other industry there is. It's the basics of economics to have people flood where the money is, even if they don't belong there.
The sad part about it is that people that actually belong get overlooked in a sea of unqualified wannabes. My school has a huge chunk of people in the computer science department that don't belong there. As a result, the CS professors have been lowering their standards to keep enrollment up. Sad. Some students come to me and complain, "I just have so much trouble programming in C. I hate it." Absurd.
IMO, it seems that to differentiate yourself on an academic level, a bachelor degree is not enough because of the very reason you speak of. That is why now in my junior year, I have already started very seriously looking at different graduate schools in my state. What better to say to other people that you belong in your industry than to spend 6-7 years in school learning more about it.
