isn't a language just a turing machine API?

I didn't learn how to learn until late into my master's studies... I was near the top of the class in one of the best public high schools in Georgia. I would have very much more enjoyed a school like this.

Ugh... It's not MY argument, it's the reality of history. A software translation layer (VM) will be less efficient than microcode, which is what intel processors use anyway to decode x86 into a RISC ISA. You really don't know what you're talking about here.

that's totally silly, a non-x86 cpu has no benefit for running windows. You can't run x86 software on it, and that's why anyone uses windows in the first place. Windows without backwards compatibility will not sell.

I don't get this at all. The router menu is only a convenience. It would stand up to reason to expect that if you have a use for dyndns, you have some sort of box behind your router that stays up continuously. With this in mind, it should be fairly simple to update any DNS provider's records with an api from that box behind your router. If they don't support that, then bitch at them. In the case that you're just accessing your router, not quite sure what the point would be.

actually, if he ends up having 2 kids, it's only 1/2 as much natural selection.

Carmack seems to agree with MS here: "I agree with Microsoft’s assessment that WebGL is a severe security risk. The gfx driver culture is not the culture of security." http://twitter.com/#!/ID_AA_Carmack/status/81732190949486592

This is simple to answer. It's a form of smugness and self-promotion, to publicly wish a famous stranger well on an online forum makes yourself look well-aligned and better compared to other folks. If not that, then it's likely a comment in anticipation of poor taste of future posts (based on past slashdot posts).

This has implications for exercise, no? Would you get stronger if you wear this all day, growing more bone and muscles than necessary?
