I don't know about tens of meters, but if you look at toll road implementations, you'll see that it can be read from at least several meters. I only mismanage assets though, so I'm not familiar with tags used in warehouses.

They're only in it for the tips.

What a lovely parting gift.

Accessories like my car.

If I'm spammed, opening another Gmail account is free. Changing my phone number costs $36.

For $10 more (what's that, about eight Euros?), you could buy SublimeText or UltraEdit and get some of those new features you've been waiting for. At least run the 30 day trial to see for yourself. I use Sublime and it's been a good choice for me. Sublime also handles large files much better than TextMate. I've used it on Postgres dumps in the 4GB range just to see. Scrolling was slow on my MacBook Pro with only 8GB RAM, but I could do it.

As for getting big bucks for years, it's likely that Allan is tired of maintaining it. Version 1.5 is a great editor as is. Users always want more and he probably found a new shiny project to tickle his fancy. Releasing as GPL is a wonderful bit of philanthropy.

No worry, he's unemployed. His CV will never make it past HR.

How else will they find the good porn?

Not at a typical 60+ hour work week.

And by then, they're used and out of warranty.

eBay also has the right to say "not without due process" as it applies to the jurisdiction.

I have a Ford truck and can confirm that it runs. I'm also old and can confirm that I do not. Does that help?

By my measure, syncing the clock on the stove, microwave, DVD, TV, alarm and car stereos would be an engineering marvel. It all depends on perspective. Yes, there have been greater accomplishments. That doesn't mean your newest widget isn't nifty.

I live near downtown and ride through those parks frequently. This wasn't some event outside my normal stomping grounds. The first things we noticed was the amount of trash strewn around.

Just a bunch of dirty hippies trashing up the park. Most did leave when told to move on. Other than the litter it was peaceful. Nobody got beat up or abused by police and none of the protesters caused a major fuss, but several were arrested when they refused to go. Cartman could have handled them.

People here generally clean up after themselves, but it only takes a few to make a mess.
