There are situations where rebooting always has an impact, even if you're in a cluster. For instance take a database cluster in active/passive configuration. Switching over may be fast, but it will always take some…
It's not so much a success of central planning at all. The minitel succeeded not because it was beautifully planned; it succeeded because massive gov't investment put one in every home. It allowed the network effect to…
This is incorrect. I've never heard it called that. You better run memtest86 instead of realloc.
"NP time" doesn't mean anything. NP problems are verifiable in polynomial time.
You'd be better off contributing to a Free/Open Source Software project.
> The patent licensing is dirt cheap, the people paying in are almost exclusively hardware makers That is absolutely incorrect. The MPEG-LA even wants per unit royalties on decoders (as well as on encoders AND…
The "crusade" is a good way of raising awareness to the issue. I don't care much for generic animal right activists. In fact, I think most of them, and in particular Peta, are complete morons and deserve to DIAF. But…
Is it morally repugnant to mistreat a plant? Is it morally repugnant to mistreat an animal with just one (1) neuron? Is it morally repugnant to mistreat an animal with just 100 000 neurons? Well that's how many lobsters…
Why couldn't you be fucked to spare a couple words to tell us what "Balsamiq" was? I have no idea what it is and, I suspect, neither do 99.99% of those who read this headline.
Look outside the US, and you will find that your solution (primary care done by nurses) isn't unlikely to be the right one. In France, going to the doctor (general practitioner) costs €22, before insurance (it's €5 or…
Being unemployed in France is nowhere near as bad as in the US. You get free healthcare and good unemployment benefits.
Typical neoliberal bullshit from The Economist, the magazine who famously blamed the irish for their laziness during the great potato famine. Let me address a few points: - The apparently huge unemployment among the…

I use the otherwise useless CapsLock key as my compose key. Works like a charm: << « >> » ^0 ° ,c ç `e è "i ï /o ø
Stupid idea. That's what's already done today and it's not good enough: doesn't reflow, doesn't zoom properly, does not work for dynamic texts (eh buddy, ever heard of FUCKING BLOGS?), isn't that great for…
Is the "%" key missing from your keyboard? If not, why are you abbreviating "percent" to "pct"?
