Interesting, when you mentioned Power C I thought you meant this: http://www.mixsoftware.com/product/powerc.htm The book for it was very nice as well. Best bang for the buck at the time. Could only compile code up to x

As a person with visual issues, I hope they beefed up the screen zoom control. I have a mouse that has a thumb scroll wheel and I usually map it to "<window>+, <window>-" (if in windows-not the one for browsers) That w

I can't really say it's an open standard either since proprietary binary data can be embedded that may not be usable by the 'standard' pdf viewer. Yes, I have had to deal with it on a development slant as well. The open

Even as a Book format it is klunky, as it has no indexing. Take the text to speech tools and the bigger the book the slower it gets near the end of the book. I would rather have a plain ole html file with formatting flags than a PDF book.

It is not open data. You still can have proprietary blocks of info inside the file. The lack of open source tools to manipulate the format is a major hindrance IMHO. It is also a very space wasting as well when people only do a bitmap dump

Every time I see one more way advertisers force their garbage on you, I think of drug dealers. Wake up, we are allowing this to happen. As for Google - shame on you.

One I did. Self modifying Lotus 123 Macro code to format information downloaded from a System/38-IBM AS/400 to make 'nice looking labels'. Because lotus had graphics (PC) and could print them to a Laser printer and the S

KISS. Keep It Simple Stupid. remember you or others of our Ilk will have to touch or replace that code some day. Getting fancy or sneaky is fun with competitions or bragging rights but in practical coding simple is ALWAYS best.

Hm, I'd rather have a intimidating set of dragon horns. Maybe something modular for the way I feel atm. Ooo RGB mood horns? They would less to clean and take care of. A way to head butt morons, and keeps the sun off my head and out of

I'll say it no one else will... Yeah and all is well and good until some faceless stalker tracks down, stalks, molests, brutalizes and finally murders some 'important/high muckety mucks' 11yr old daughter and posts it al

Less migraines triggered on weekends. I found that idf I did not consume a similar about of caffine per day I coul more often get a migrain on a weekend when I did not have the same amount. E.g. I used to drink 3 Mt Dew a day and have none

Set up digital books for content. Prohibit/censure teachers for 'requiring' books they wrote when they were never used in class.

Book reuse is also key. I was able to use my Calculus book for three semesters. And like you say the content does not change that much.

Well even if they say it's their EULA, won't stop the pro miners one bit. The effort is not work it. Besides; some people who develop would probably use a 'scaled down' system to test it anyway. Maybe NVIDIA will launch

heh, when? by the time you will be able to get one they will have a new one out you can't get either. I thought I would be able to get two of the AMD vega 64 shortly after COMPDEX. Then I saw the prices. WHOOF. Availablity sucks, price

I would not buy one from eBAy used. You will never know just how much lifetime you have left after a 'miner' burned it 24/7/365. And I thought the prices were a joke, but a AMD vega RX 64, was pricing between 1,100$ and

Well part of is the corporate need to have all the people at a site to do work. A lot of job could be reevaluated to be 'work at home' thus eliminating the need to travel somewhere to do it. This alone would free up traffic, make
