It really is amazing isn't it ? I think once people get over their $soft trance - usually negated by just taking a large ditribution like fedora and installing the complete distribution on an evaluation box - that they will ask some very tough questions related to the breadth and depth of what...

...... there is little that anyone can do with respect to the vagarities of local disclosure variations...... they are off the mark in a few localities. That said, I am surprised that all of the properties I looked at in southern california and the bay area accurately reflect the current...

SEC first, attorney second, police third, all within the hour ....

Speaking as someone who has had to unfortunately sue a few deadbeat business frauds that attempted to do business with our companies ........ If you have any real money in this equation ..IMMEDIATELY retain an attorney.... A good one would look at this and file suit immediately and attempt to...

Here is an interesting figure ..... Last year I transacted portions of my portfolio of real estate in So. Ca. .... My judgement was that we were at the peak of the cycle (this is not to say I have any idea what the length or magnitude of this downleg will be... I dont..well I have an idea but it...

The first point is the illusion of much of the wealth in S. Ca. .... a lot of its real but a lot of it is really not .... The second point is something to think about: In whose interest is it to have workers slaving all their life so at the end they might be able to buy - if they dont die...

This brings back memories of a southern california that is long gone ..... Things are so much different today ....but apparently the real estate market is still the same ....

...Right now however is a time to be especially careful to not overpay or to buy in areas that might have more of a correction - the eastside in seattle comes to mind ... places like redmond, bellevue, etc ..... The runup there has been big. Further south and east/southeast things are more...

If you know nothing about real estate then this is good advice: Ask a potential agent specifically how they find and how many clients they have placed into a below market deal in the last 5 or 10 years. If the answer is zero move to the next one ----- there are many, many agents. Generally I...

.... Unfortunately there is no shortcut for learning how to trade ..... you need to spend time in the markets to develop an approach and to understand what not to do. Trying to learn how to trade from a textbook or course is like trying to learn how to ski from a book. You can learn a lot...

Linux solved 2 nasty for my companies - namely, no control over our platform cost (Vendor can raise prices at will) and no control over the source code and bug fixes/enhancements. This later issue feeds into security problems where we cant risk not being able to quickly obtain a patch or remedy...

Yeah OK ..... Then how come you are asking basic questions here ? Sorry wont bite ... go fish somewhere else

People that are designing and building real systems know what the terminology implies with respect to software. As you refactor your systems keep the concept in mind ..... There are a whole bunch of other newsgroups that can get you up to speed on the idea.....

Its not really a serious performance problem in general ....and it really has no bearing on any roadmap regarding commodity hardware ...... The right tool for the right job and the right design .... which these days should be technology neutral or technology segregated ..... for those that...

and that really is the point .... if you know the tools and how to use them in detail then the differences between platforms start to become minor ... like I said you can do most things using any of the various tools and technologies .... some things (sometimes many things) will be faster and...

Although i cant give you a spreadsheet (yet) - I have recently been asked to do this - that shows the relative performance and compatibility of the various browsers on different platforms, my quick and dirty tests appear to show that FireFox/Mozilla is faster and leaner in most cases (and it...

Sorry wont bite ... go fish somewhere else.

But when did this become a discussion of the problem with your software design ? Those issues are for you to solve upfront before you build by developing a technology neutral or technology segregated design. If now you are suddenly trying to determine how to move what perhaps should have been...

Liking something and deciding if its a good career move are two seperate issues. Before you decide upon comething like "computer engineering" you had better talk with many, many people about the realities of being an engineer and the career path. Once you get a frank honest discussion of how...

Not really .... but I would say that there was a high likelyhood of a pullback on the report just because everyone has been waiting for a long time for some type of down move ..... However this is more than most people were expecting ...
