Did you really mean what you asked? Or was it a general question because you don't know what Linux or OSX is? It is possible to do more than OSX and paying less. Even if OSX is free, I will never use it. Because I don't have Mac machine. For less than the price of a Mac, it is possible to build...

ActiveView is great. The next step would be to have tabs in the email body so you can open several ActiveViews. Next would be to have the Favorites to allow to bookmark ActiveViews. Next, developers must code their page differently because ActiveView v6 doesn't respect standards. Shortly after...

Next victim in line, Germany. They have reverted back to using Windows.

Thanks for the clarification. I was wondering why exactly 3He and not 4He to have the superfluid property.

Exciting article Peter. But now I am worried for you. The FBI now knows that you knows the Anon guys. Would it be possible that they turn their heat on you?

The cause is simply because most of people don't like to remember a long sentence. You will notice that people retain particularly well the last few words. Have you ever experienced something like "Oh take me any of these Pizza: Vegetarian, Hawaiian, BBQ Chicken, except Pepperoni". You bet that...

I like this article. It shows another facet of security firms that I never thought of. They are as dangerous (or maybe more?) to their client than the threats they pretend to protect their clients against. From there to fabricate materials or hacking the client security to convince a client is...

The method you suggested will end up with the same problem. Simply because mass unit of the quantum world is not convenient for everyday life. We still need to go through the exercise of creating a physical representation of the reference mass. Just so people could related to a practical notion...

A few decades later, in the US, you'll need an army of lawyers to be allowed to use just a screw driver. On that day, US businesses will wonder why other in the world are much more efficient. And probably shortly after, USA will begin to accept food donation from Yemen.

I can't believe I read through the article without even realizing its 3 pages. Good writing, congrats.

I can't believe a man in his position can make this kind of blunder. Hydro represents a physical quantity of energy that must be extracted from the nature. While the data traveling in the cable is immaterial. Transferring data at 1 TB/s compared to 1 MB/s doesn't require x1000 times more energy...

Dear Creator, Please show me you are better than that. Go create life forms on other planets and moons. Please don't tell me a few mere differences in the environmental conditions on these places had put off a powerful being of your caliber. Until then, I think you are an imposter.

Does Lync 2010 know how to do copy and paste text correctly? I'm serious, in OCS, it takes 10 seconds to paste a text. When it does, it adds random linefeeds.

I extracted the HD from that computer and connected it to another computer having different hardware. 10.10 installed OK and ran OK. Putting the HD back in the original computer, 10.10 can boot but has erratic behaviors or random lock as I described. This looks like hardware specific issue. The...

Anyone having experienced extreme slowness when installing Ubuntu 10.10 ? May be I am unlucky to have a hardware issue. But this version is for me 10 perfect disasters. Nothing works! The Alternate CD, in spite of the option to upgrade offline will abort if you are not connected to Internet...

Have you tried reading the size of drill bits and bolt/nuts? It goes like 1/4, 3/16, 5/6, etc. Also shoe sizes: a kid shoe size 13 is smaller than a man shoe size 10. What a mess. Of course, elsewhere in the world, these measurements are integer and generally size N < size N+1. Americans have a...

Is it possible to improve (or re-design) an email system to make it un-spammable or at least make the job of the spammer much harder ?

Sigh! Here is how this kind of problem will persist forever. One of our client is a very large company. We recommend to upgrade to IE8. The client knows that IE8 is better and the application will likely not break. However, we must go with IE6. Tests and Dev machines must use IE6. In short, IE6...

Excellent article. If I was a HD manufacturer, I will go ahead with any innovation and won't worry about the legacy standards. I will just put a sticker "not compatible with Windows XP, Windows 2003". What is the problem?

Who are these "500 users around the globe" who had answered to the survey? Personally I use Miranda (Windows) and Pidgin (Ubuntu Linux). So I don't really care about the protocol as the IM tool I use is compatible of the majority of popular protocols. I don't know about Yahoo Messenger, may be...
