I found TSP the other month when cleaning up after stubbornly glued wall paper. I went with the TSP alternative due to no-rinse factor and, as another comment said, the environmental factor. Most of the stuff you might need is also in the building material area, not the cleaning aisle oddly.

6) Company B, having successfully fleeced the public initially, now set out a way to fleece the public....again/
7) Company B, reusing same political connections under Company A, convince gov't to buy Company B's wares.
8) Profit!
9) Use new monies to get policy makers to write restrictions that put your product/industry in a legalized monopoly.
10) Profit!
11) Become overleveraged and essential that you can then afford to make bad decisions without fear of recourse.
12) Hold industry/public hostage using "If we aren't saved, the public suffers greatly".
13) Get public monies again b/c you are too big to fail.
14) Profit!

Ok, that example is mostly a joke....mostly.

B/c if a professor doesn't publish, they're a bum?

With the Arduino, I can get a LCD + DS18S20 up and running in 20 minutes from unwrapping to code compiled and measuring temps. Part of it may just be where I'm at on the learning curve or maybe it is that easy.

Can you do this on the ARM platform? Not intending to troll, I'm flat out curious about the libraries and ease of use.

When you have monthly deliverables, you get a pretty fast feedback loop. The code I write gets put in use pretty darn quick.

I'm not saying a manager keeping updated is a bad thing. I'm just saying that the frequent pings and requests for information can cause more harm than good, especially if a manager thinks they can get highly accurate and highly precise data every time.

I'm going to etch your comment onto something at my desk so that I will always remember it.

We were at the end a release and the two dev directors start hounding you "When will it be done? How much longer?", etc.

It gets to a point when you just want to say "It'll be done when it's checked in and code reviewed."

Page 10 of the actual whitepaper.

Ensure Felony Penalties for Infringement By Streaming and by Means of Other New Technology: It is
imperative that our laws account for changes in technology used by infringers. One recent technological
change is the illegal streaming of content. Existing law provides felony penalties for willful copyright
infringement, but felony penalties are predicated on the defendant either illegally reproducing or
distributing the copyrighted work.2 Questions have arisen about whether streaming constitutes the
distribution of copyrighted works (and thereby is a felony) and/or performance of those works (and
thereby is a not a felony). These questions have impaired the criminal enforcement of copyright laws.
To ensure that Federal copyright law keeps pace with infringers, and to ensure that DOJ and U.S. law
enforcement agencies are able to effectively combat infringement involving new technology, the
Administration recommends that Congress clarify that infringement by streaming, or by means of other
similar new technology, is a felony in appropriate circumstances.
Recommendation: The Administration recommends that Congress clarify that infringement by streaming,
or by means of other similar new technology, is a felony in appropriate circumstances.

I like how "appropriate" is not spelled out.

To me, this sounds like MS has no f'ing clue what they are doing as a whole. They're pushing open source via MPL in other areas with codeplex such as MVC.

Then crap like this happens. I gotta imagine that there are software folks at MS wondering why they still work there.

Gawker actually encrypted,from what I've read, their passwords, rather than store a hash of them. This is what allowed even folks with good passwords to become vulnerable to Gawker's idiocy. The encryption can eventually be broken, exposing everyone's passwords.

But yeah, assuming a global salt or non-salted usage, once you figure out the hash for user A, you can easily tell if any other users have that password. The salt isn't really a secret. It just tells the person with your password list "Good luck compromising a user anytime soon with your precomputed hash tables."

Sometime in February 2012 after fans and Bethesda patch and finish the content!

I am actually pretty happy about this. I enjoyed morrowind and oblivion a lot and hope they can expand on the great stories just waiting to be told.

I think the issue with that is that it's not really making it any more difficult...just making it longer.

I agree with PA on this-Halo on Legendary is a chore.

There was one exception in Halo 3 where this wasn't true, during the New Mombasa highway.

...Unless it was for iPhone development.
