yeah, nice point. The standard way to give credit in academia is to list references throughout a work. It's funny that on the proof it reads - 'By ANDREW WILES*'. So even there he was giving credit. It also mentions Fermat in the title,

Yeah, I do feel the same way about Apple. Apple claims credit a lot more than Google. Google is definitely way more free software friendly than Apple in my experience - like a whole different magnitude of more friendly :) I see your point

This reminded me of google advertising about 'Chrome by google' on big billboards in London. My first thought was 'they are not giving credit to everyone else who did the work on chrome'. Maybe it should have been 'Chrome - an open source

Very nice! So many people first started making little games on their computers, it makes sense to teach people this way.

Also .com.au requires a business number to register. There are other restrictions too. Similarly .asn.au can only be registered by non-commercial organisations. Also many european business domains are restricted to eu businesses etc. This

This is a really strange press release from Apple... to me it makes Apple sound bad. First they make the Nokia quote stand out as the most, over their other points. Then Apple uses the word 'reinvent' in the first line of the third paragra

Indeed, publishing code is good. Getting crits and reviews make you a MUCH better coder. So does making code that other people use. Which can be very different from writing your own code, or writing code that programmers in the same room

hehe, nice hack! You can use this technique to by pass the middle people in other ways too. For example with agency job ads, it is sometimes possible to find the company from the phrasing or combinations of technologies listed along with t

Indeed. Even with ram, concurrency is optimal on many server architectures. See NUMA, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-Uniform_Memory_Access

Yeah, I've also found linux to be a better unix than OSX. Many OSX calls seem lacking compared to linux ones. Compare mmap and threads on both systems for example. Which shouldn't be surprising considering how much work is going on with l

hi, If your app links to a GPL app, then your app is most likely covered by the GPL. There are not copyright notices in all the files... but it looks like you are supposed to import a GPL module into your python program... thus the GPL is i

Looks interesting. I like that at least one real ISP is using it... it gives me hope that one day it will spread to be a good solution for python apps on cheap web hosts. Also it is good to have a couple of different python extensions for

Remember that these are pypy selected micro benchmarks. Always take a projects marketing and spin with a grain of salt. You don't believe everything microsoft tells you do you? They slightly misrepresent the data shown, by saying that 'P

There's heaps of other gaming devices too. The iphone is tiny compared to the number of mobile phones - with games like snake :) For example 110 million s40 phones sold in 2008 only. Many people have the apple reality distortion field acti

Numpy is one of the best packaged python modules there is. Saying it is hard to install is completely wrong. It's even already packaged for many OSes. For example, it comes with OSX(and ubuntu, red hat, etc). There's a 3 click installer
