They will need genomic, health research that target their populations anyway. That's enough to occupy them for a while. What I don't seen in these discussion is the fact that I feel soon, Asia will want things for itself and that's a huge a

hum, there is a menu option for find in all browsers I know of. Sure, under chrome it's in the wrench menu but if it's a menu it might as well be lost for a large group of users.

The thing is I think end users are evolving. I find that the generations that grew up before pervasive computers were pervasive are the ones having the most issue with these things. When I watch my 7 year old nephew use a computer 10 times

there no reason that they need 5 different models of 15 inch XPS laptop shown on the page. What they should do is have one model and let you customize that to your will. Obviously internally that might affect some things like the mobo choic

4. simplify the damn options, there 5 options per model and like 30 different models. It's ridiculous. You just need a few options with customizability.

I remember buying from dell in the 90s when they had decent customer service and made good (for a large OEM) computers. 1. There website was much simpler and not at all like the overload piece of crap site they have now. People use to go on

I offer multiple options, 1. they can open local files, option two is obviously to get them from the server every time. For most things they don't usually look at the same stuff multiple times. An average MRI is pretty low resolution and ca

Haven't seen numbers for what Microsoft was willing to pay. How do you know they overbid?

2) You wouldn't they they would also mention Gates? I think there battle could be seen similarly as the Leibniz vs Newton calculus war.

yeah I've been saying this since the oracle deal. 8 billion looks small now for what Sun was. They would also own Java and other important tech that they could have used a lot more than what Motorola offers them. I wonder if they even tried

I write all my code with a black background and green text (well except for syntax that's highlighted). Much better than staring at the sun(white screen) for hours ;p

Well my stuff isn't Doom3 level so I guess it's useless but I'm building visualization tools for the brain imaging community with WebGL and for that it works great. I have no fear that WebGL will do fine, it's an evolution of the Web the sa

No, what he's saying is on the one side the junk mail senders are blocking rate increases with lobbying and on the other side unions are asking for high amounts of benefits and pay raises. This is what he meant by squeezed (from both sides)

I hope they replace the Google earth plugin with WebGL at some point. Kind of annoying having to install a plugin for this.

They should bring it back for a special anniversary edition 1998 + 15 = 2013. Perfect timing to get started ;p

I don't foresee any future guy doing any better. The reality is the president doesn't have much power to improve it but as we've seen with the last president they do have a great amount of power in making it worse.

Some states seem to have laws preventing this sort of thing since it would interfere with 911 calls. http://www.cga.ct.gov/2002/rpt/2002-R-0891.htm Not sure about California.

A better (still horrible) analogy would be more like saying if you build cars for F1 you can't do it for NASCAR and use the same parts or use the same drivers and sponsors etc...

Good point,it would also be interesting to know if this affects any business that does business in the US or only US based. My bet is it's the former (I am not a lawyer). Just because of the loophole you exposed. Think of all the foreign ba

It's not about earnings. Having datacenters in europe would still require them to respect the laws in europe. They need those datacenters for latency and plenty of other reasons. If they were forced to only reside in the US or in Europe it

I think by immigrant communities he was also including immigrants children (1st 2nd generation or more). I've seen this used as to visible minorities in many places around the world. Including country that are mostly immigrants like Canada

I don't know how tight the community but could the residents organize to protect the areas? A little like what the Egyptians were doing? Blocking roads and letting only residents pass?

Well at least if they live in the US the government does not have to feed them all and provide shelter etc... At home they support the economy of the US by buying things whit their salaries here. Soldiers at home are cheaper than soldiers

Between 1.4 and 6.1B. That shows Oracle only valued sun for it patents it could use against people like Google (they paid 8B for sun)

Sorry if this is a stupid question but when you use continuations-passing style, what happens to the stack in javascript? Does it clean it self up or does the language just keeps going functions all the way down and fills up?

That's exactly it. If we complained about every new feature we'd still be using static pages with blink tags. Google and Firefox are teaming up to implement this features. Look at how Google went about WebGL. They had a competing plugin cal

not at their scale, look at it this way if they each have a ton of patents that can be used against the other than neither has incentive to sue over any patents. It doesn't matter that you build a device that infringes x patent because if t
