Yes, but the link also says that the only version of NT that used Spider's code is 3.1. The myth started when people ran strings on various commandline network utilities in Windows 2000, such as ftp.exe, and saw the UC Berkeley copyright message. Apparently, they confused the TCP/IP stack in the kernel with the usermode utilities or something. Bottom line is that NT doesn't use the BSD TCP/IP stack.

Even in a hosted environment? The C89 draft I found only lists "int main(void)" and "int main(int argc, char *argv[])" (2.1.2.2); it doesn't have the "or in some other implementation-defined manner." that C99 has.

The ANSI C standard defines two types of implementations: "hosted" and "freestanding". An embedded system would most likely be considered a freestanding implementation, in which case, the entry point function can be whatever the implementation defines it to be. It might not even be named "main" (but if it is, it could return void if that's what the implementation says). That said, C99 allows main() to return void, even in a hosted implementation: 5.1.2.2.1 gives "some other implementation-defined manner." as one of the options for main's definition. It notes in 5.1.2.2.3 that "If the return type is not compatible with int, the termination status returned to the host environment is unspecified."

What do you need to install? A keyboard with Dvorak keycaps? I thought if you touch-type, you don't look at the keycaps anyway, so you don't need to change out the QWERTY keyboard. Chances are the work computer uses Windows, which comes with support for Dvorak, so you don't need to install any software either. It's just a configuration change (which doesn't require administrator privileges... a regular user can add the Dvorak layout). Does your employer let you change the mouse speed or double-click time? If so, I don't see why they wouldn't also let you change your keyboard layout.

They do. And if you RTFS, Mozilla is also doing it "... to compete with proprietary geolocation services like Google's."

No, the translation is not "normally" held to be "... kill." Especially not because of the KJV. The modern English translations, including the most popular ones, translate the word as "murder". See, for example, the New International Version, the New American Standard, the Amplified Bible, even the New King James Version. Also, an old, but literal translation, the aptly-named Young's Literal Translation, translates it as "Thou dost not murder." Take a look at the other translations on that site and note how the vast majority translate the word as "murder." Pretty much the only modern, widely-used, translation that uses "kill" is the New Jerusalem Bible.

And FYI, the "Hebrew that Slashdot won't reproduce" can be romanized as "rasah", a term that while hard to pin down the exact meaning of, scholars generally agree means more than simply "kill". This site has some discussion of it.

It's also notable that the Bible explicitly mentions the death penalty as acceptable: "Anyone who kills a person is to be put to death as a murderer only on the testimony of witnesses. But no one is to be put to death on the testimony of only one witness." -- Numbers 35:30. So perhaps that will refresh the memory of the AC a few posts up who "[didn't] recall any exceptions for "Oh but if the other guy killed someone else that's O.K, you know?"

So in other words, the refresh rate for 4K content is 24 to 30Hz, just as jddeluxe said? Got it.

USB 3 SuperSpeed: One balanced pair each way = two balanced pairs. 10Gb Ethernet: four balanced pairs. Seems like pretty much the same efficiency to me. That said, apparently USB 3.1 will add 10Gb SuperSpeed using the same connectors/cables.

To get 4Gbps in USB3, you need to use SuperSpeed USB, which requires a different cable and connector--it doesn't work with the single D+/D- pair in USB 2.0 and earlier. The SuperSpeed connector has more pins to support the two balanced pairs that SuperSpeed requires.

1,000 amps? Since when did residential electrical service supply that much current? No, Tesla's highest-powered residential charger draws less than 100A at 240VAC. And even the Supercharger doesn't use that much power--it's 120kW, whereas 375V 1000A = 375kW. Don't know how much current the Supercharger draw, but Wikipedia says "The SAE DC Level 3 charging has not been determined but the standard as it now exists has the potential 200–600 V DC at a maximum of 400 A (240 kW)."

So when you click a link to a JPG file, does it open in the browser, or does it open in the viewer configured for .jpg in your OS? I'd wager that for just about everyone, it opens in the browser. What's different about PDFs that you think they shouldn't do the same?

People had been complaining about misleading "download" ads on TortoiseSVN's download page for years, and the maintainer, Stefan Küng, refused to do anything about it, basically saying he develops TSVN for free, so he's entitled to as much ad money as he can get. Even reasonable suggestions such as putting a border around the ad that said "Advertisement" were rejected. I had even offered to donate to the project if he put a labeled border around the ads. While I don't have any problems with him getting ad revenue, I did have a problem with him relying on deception to get it. So, I suggested that anyone who found the ad placement misleading file a policy violation report with Google ("The site makes it difficult to distinguish ads from content."). In response, he killfiled me and banned me from the tortoisesvn-users list. Talk about butthurt :P. But perhaps the reports had an effect, since he did add the border as had been suggested. And I donated 150 euros to the project. And I still think Stefan Küng is an asshole (which I mentioned in my Paypal note to him :)

No, Wikipedia is right... as Section 1.1 of the MIPS R10000 Microprocessor User’s Manual says, "MIPS has defined an instruction set architecture (ISA), implemented in the following sets of CPU designs: MIPS IV, implemented in the R8000 and R10000"

The R10000 is MIPS IV, not MIPS V

The point is that if editing documents on the phone is important to you, you'd buy a device that did have a way to output video to a larger screen. (My Android phone can do that, although I have no use for the feature and have never tried it... I bought it because it was cheap--LG Nexus 4)
