So you don't have a good reason.
So you don't have a good reason.
The question is not corporate adoption but developer adoption. Airplanes have a very low adoption percentage among all people who use automated transportation but a high adoption rate among pilots.
touch response, camera, display quality, battery life per mAh, 64 bit- CPU
Why not? Why wouldn't you want people to negotiate at conferences?
When Steve Jobs was alive high end Android phones were from a hardware perspective usually quite a bit more advanced than Apple / iOS. Today the opposite is true and high end Android are often quite a bit behind by most metrics. If anything Android has been falling further behind Apple phones since Steve Jobs died.
On OSX Apple was mostly ahead than and is ahead now. How far is Microsoft towards retina only systems? While Apple has converted over most of their major lines and likely around 2017 is selling 0 or very few non retina machines. How far is Microsoft towards taking advantage of SSD and CPU freezing to increase battery life? Etc..
Your estimate is silly.
Well I think the why is pretty clear with the feature set they have been releasing. On OSX Safari is a default choice whose major advantage is ties with iOS devices. They are fine with people using other browsers and might even welcome a more diverse OSX broswer ecosystem. On iOS they want to move away from the web and towards applications. They need the iOS Safari engine to be fast, but they don't need it to support the full range of web experiences since increasingly they want those experiences delivered via. applications.
The analogy with I.E. is really quite on point. Apple is acting like Microsoft did in the late 1990s / 2000s for the same reason Microsoft was disinterested in I.E. They were focusing on platform specific advantages that come from client / server rather than purely web server design.
You're really trying to say 18 minutes between 3rd and 4th place is significant?
No I'm trying to say that claiming that the #3 winner is bad is a problem because #4, is slightly worse not much better.
The benchmark is continuous web surfing over LTE 4G, with screen at 100 nits of brightness. The iPhone 6 plus can do 537 at max. There are other benchmarks that measure how long the phone lasts in low power mode so one needs to use multiple benchmarks.
The iPhone 6 does 7:40, which is about an hour below average.
Open, change, close is a version.
Open, change is not a version since it didn't get closed.
The versioning pattern can keep older it doesn't have to be just "last 10". On better versioning system it can be:
Last 10, up to 1 per month for 12 months. 1 per 6 mo forever. See Google Docs or Wikipedia for good examples of this.
If someone updates a file in place, do you really want to create a new version for every write call?
Potentially yes. You might throw some of those away but...
What you can do is make hourly snapshots and make them available as read only shared directories.
And then the user on a file independent basis needs to know when bunches of changes happened. So for example file X had:
Large number of changes between April 2015 and May 2015
large number of changes between Nov 2014 and Jan 2015
large number of changes between Sep 2014 and Nov 2013
etc... with no changes in between. Other files are going to have totally different bursts of activity.
Of the major phones sold:
1st place: Huawei Ascend Mate 2 (14:43)
2nd OnePlus One (13:16)
3rd iPhone 6 Plus (10:00)
I'd say it is pretty inaccurate to say Apple phones have terrible battery life.
especially since
4th Samsung Galaxy S5 (9:42)
Lets be honest, no company would allow, let alone offer, tours if it had any risk of leaving a bad impression to potential customer.
It is not so much a bad impression or good impression it is an accurate impression. Obviously they are going to spin things positively. But it is not to their advantage for the customer to not know the upsides and downsides. They don't want to sell services they can't provide. So for example if the data center offers 24/7 smart hands they will present that. If they offer 8/5 smart hands they aren't going to claim 24/7. If they have 2 week's of oil on hand they will want to present that if they only have 4 days they aren't going to claim 2 weeks.
No company in the world would allow a client to perform such audits
Not true. Remember that quite often the IaaS provider and the underlying colo are separate. So for example if AWS is hosting out of location X, the colo company for X (say QTS for example) is going to be audited by Amazon. QTS might very well show you the result of the Amazon audit. Even better is if a bank colos there.
. Whether the provider plays (willingly or not) hand it hand with intelligence agencies is yet another question... You obviously still like bedtime stories. In the meanwhile, I'll leave my sensitive data off the hands of cloud.
Assume the answer is any colo provider you to to will work with USA intelligence agencies. But so will your technical staff. Nothing you do will stop domestic intelligence agencies. As for foreign though, the IaaS companies often offer far better security than your company could ever afford.
But intelligence agencies aren't the real threat. Your facility is likely vastly less secure than the worst of the commercial colos, you are making it much easier to get spied on by thieves.
You don't get audited by anyone serious.
How do you know any of that is true?
For a customer you can easily have a tour arranged. You can meet with your account manager regularly. You'll know the people assigned to your account.... Your agent can just tell you since we all go on tours.
How many people review the data center they are migrating to?
I'd say most customers go their data center at least once and sometimes more than once during the sales process.
How many people vette the employees in the cloud center?
You mean like an HR vetting? Those are done quite well. In addition the centers themselves are regularly audited by customers and auditing firms. Again you can pick your center based on the policies you want.
There is no incentive for the vendor to do any of that, it just reduces profitability.
Quite the contrary. The better the data center the less cost sensitive the customers. It increases profitability. Lower end centers selling rack space below cost to supplement existing customers who have become semi-indifferent might have those sorts of incentives to cut corners but again a customer is going to know if there are hitting up a low security / low cost provider.
And the IT management can just say, "It is a professional Fortune {500 | 50} company they *must* be good". . But trust me, the incompetence I have seen in Fortune 500 companies has been astounding.
Exactly the point. You see a much higher level of competence in telcos and fiber companies which run most data centers. You see a much higher level of competence in IaaS operators. Which is my point for most companies this is a security upgrade.
Do we want them keeping copies for the NSA, FBI, CIA, etc to eventually crack the encryption to view?
If the NSA, FBI, CIA ask for a copy of your data your IT staff will give it to them. Don't kid yourself. Your IT staff is not going to jail for their "at will" employer.
I have yet to see a cloud service prove that they cannot access any data that I would store in their equipment.
There are plenty of cloud providers with very rigorous controls and audit reports. That is readily available. Not from Amazon (but even they are getting better) but Sungard, Oracle cloud, Verizon cloud, Firehost... You are asking for a standard feature.
This is somewhat true. Let's narrow a bit. First we are talking civil discovery only and then that's just an argument against IaaS vs. Colo though. Obviously for a criminal case where the government is seriously pissed i.e. the government issues a warrant and ceases the servers they will get the data in either case. Also don't kid yourself once they take the servers your IT staff can be terrified by "obstruction" type charges and will help them get data.
OK so with that off the table. If you intend to be stay close or over the line with discovery breaking apart the management of the service and the physical service makes it easier to avoid discovery because you have three parties than can legally block one another. A can say B knows, B can say C knows and C can say A knows. That's even better than having the in-house staff obstruct discovery where a judge is more likely to find the company liable.
I should also mention that companies that are frequently subject to discovery BTW often have the opposite problem getting middle management and lower management to admit wrongdoing to legal. Often during discovery those people are hiding documents trying to "help" the company when in reality creating a problem of what looks like not complying with the court.
So at best you are making an argument for colo + MSP over IaaS.
God helps them that themselves. -- Benjamin Franklin, "Poor Richard's Almanac"

Movie Info
Born to a middle-class family in suburban Australia, Leigh Bowery moved to London, England, in the early '80s with a desire to re-invent himself. Always fascinated with fashion and the expressive possibilities of clothing, Bowery quickly became a noted figure in London's image-obsessed "New Romantic" scene, where (as Marcus Bracewell put it) "getting ready [to go out] became an art form." While Bowery's elaborate creations were striking, Bowery designed clothing as an art form rather than as salable fashion items -- creating costumes for theater pieces, performance art pieces, or his own appearances at clubs, Bowery used clothing to confront, confuse and challenge those around him, rather than to simply adorn the body. Bowery later expanded on his philosophy and approach with his own nightclub, Taboo, and a musical group, Minty. Bowery died of AIDS-related illnesses in 1994, but this documentary -- which features interviews with his friends, family and colleagues, including Boy George, who has since staged a musical based in part on Bowery's life -- examines his life and times, as well as the lasting impact of his work. The Legend of Leigh Bowery received its world premiere in the spring of 2002 at the It's All True Documentary Film Festival on Sao Paulo, Brazil. … More

The White House has released a website — http://www.whitehouse.gov/issues/education/higher-education/college-score-card — to help college-bound students have a better sense of how much their education will cost and how much they can expect to pay in student loans.
President Obama promised the tool during Tuesday's State of the Union speech.
On the website, potential students and their parents can see a typical student's out-of-pocket costs, as well as what percentage of students graduate.
The searchable database also lets students compare the rates at which graduates default on their student loans against the national average of 13 percent, and how much the typical student pays each month in student loans.
In coming years, the site promises data on how much graduates earn.

Most of the years the saints walked the earth were much like our own: hidden, spent in quiet, ordinary duties of serving others and working. Jesus himself spent most of his earthly life — the first 30 years — working alongside St. Joseph as a carpenter before his three greatest years of ministry and mission of salvation.
The majority of our lives are spent in humble service through our daily duties. Why are these years so important in our spiritual formation? How have some used these mundane experiences to become saints? They looked beyond the everyday toil toward eternity.

2002 Honda Civic Si Q&A
2002 Honda Civic Si Question: emissions light on !!
Took to indepedent shop,ran test,stated probably the catalytic converter...and maybe an induction service could solve the problem,but unfortunately he couldn't do it and recommended a dealer. The problem he said would be the dealer would rather sell a converter than do an induction service. $$$$ Is there an alternative route? - rsm186
Answer 1
not really. it is a 420 code for cat efficiency. aftermarket converters are not reccomended as they do not meet oem specs and the light will come on again. replace with oem converter, it is expensive but will do the job correctly. Roy - mastertech6371

Re: [z_scale] Tower Kit
Expand Messages
- I know of a couple kits for "towers", but none of them like Eifel. You
might be able to pick up a crude replica of Eifel that might work if you're
in Paris sometime, a search of the net might yeild one too.
The two I can think of right off are N-Scale, but could be easily adapted,
since latticed structural steel has no scale. First is this one:
The other is a radio transmission tower available from Richmond controls,
and lighted for your Z-Scale pilot's protection.

A winter storm packing blowing snow and subzero temperatures is bearing down on Oklahoma today, with snowfall expected to start this afternoon, the National Weather Service reports.
Winter storm warning in effect for Oklahoma
The state is under a winter storm warning today and Wednesday.
Snow in central Oklahoma is expected to end around noon Wednesday. Central and north central Oklahoma could get the heaviest snowfall, said Marc Austin, a meteorologist at the National Weather Service in Norman. Between 6 and 10 inches of snow is possible statewide.
Snow-packed roads and low visibility for drivers could cause treacherous conditions tonight and Wednesday. The storm is expected to intensify early Wednesday. Wind chill indexes could dip to minus 15 degrees.
In Oklahoma City, street crews have been using trucks with plows on the front to clear rural roads and streets in the city limits.
"We haven't stopped; we've been working 24 hours a day 7 days a week since last week," city spokeswoman Kristy Yager said.
Yager said crews will continue working this afternoon. Crews are facing fatigue but will continue to focus their efforts on keeping streets and roads clear.
Meanwhile, the state Emergency Operations Center has been activated, as officials with the state Emergency Management Department are working with local emergency managers, the state Transportation Department, the Oklahoma Highway Patrol, the Oklahoma National Guard, the state Health Department, the Oklahoma Turnpike Authority, the Oklahoma Corporation Commission, FEMA, the American Red Cross, the Salvation Army and numerous other emergency response and recovery partners in planning for the storm's arrival, according to a news release.

Hi all,
Look for a talents, dedicated common lisp programmer to build our web application.
At the present the site is under development using php as the core language, truth be told ( and sorry for this) I don't like php programmers, they waste my time, can't deliver what they promise and never communicate ( i know I shouldn't class all php guys the same, but their is too many off them, and few good programmers)
so here is my reason why I'm looking for a lisper so please don't let the lisp side down.
So about the site:
we have most of the pages html layout created just going through the process of updating and changing a few elements. Most of the front will be conducted by someone else, so keeping design separate would be the best solution but not the end of the world if your more then happy to implement it lisp style.

Aug. 17,1926.
W. R. MILLER METALLIC CONTAINER AND CLOSURE THEREFOR gwuentoa I Filed Oct. 25, 1924 Patented Aug, 17, 1926.
wALTEB B. MILLER, 01? MANSFIELD, OHIO, ASSIGNOB O1 ONE-HALF TO EITHER SMITH,
Application filed October 25, 1924. Serial No. 745,879.
This invention relates to metallic containers and lids therefor, and more particularly to an improved means for holdmg the lids in place upon the*containers.
One of the objects of the present invention is to provide a container and lid which ma be readily formed from sheet metal an which parts of the container will embody coacting means for securely lockmg the lidin place upon the mouth of the container when the lid is applied and slightly rotated, so that the lid may be readily and quickly applied and as readily and quickly removed.
Another object of the invention, in one aspect thereof, is to provide means whereby the container may be so effectually sealed, when the lid is applied, as to adapt it to contain a liquid.
A still further object of the invention is to provide a construction in which the coacting locking parts are integrally formed with the container wall and the lid, thereby adapting the parts to be formed from integral sheet metal blanks.
In the accompanying drawings Figure 1 is a perspective View illustrating portions of the body and lid of a container embodying the invention;
Figure 2 is a similar view illustrating a modified form of the invention; 7
Figure 3 is a vertical diametric sectional view through the structure shown in Figure 2, the lid and container being assembled;
Figure 4 is a view similar to Figures 1 and 2 illustrating a further modification of the invention;
Figure 5 is a view similar to Figure 3, illustrating another modification of the invention;
Figure 6 is a fragmentary sectional perspective view, illustrating another modification of the invention;
Figure 7 is a similar view illustrating a still further modification of the invention.
In that form of the invention illustrated in Figure 1 of the drawings, the wall of the body of the container is indicated by the numeral 1 and said container is of metal, as well as the lid which is indicated in general by the numeral 2. The body 1 of' the container has its wall, at its mouth, formed to rovide a horizontally outstanding circumibrential shoulder 3 provided with an upstanding flange 4 "extending about its outer edge, and at suitable intervals the said flange 4 is overturned in an inward direct1on as at to provide a relatively fiat inwardly pro ecting lug 6 occupying a plane parallel to the plane of the upper surface of ing a rounded margin to reduce frictionin fitting the lid within the mouth of the container and likewise to obviate the presence of any sharp or ragged edges. At intervals in its periphery corresponding to the spacing of the lugs 6, the lid is formed both in .its body portion and in its re-enforcing portion 7, with recesses 9, of dimensions to accommodate the lugs 6, so that in applying the lid to the mouth of the container, the recesses may be brought into registration with the lugs, and the lid may be then disposed upon the supporting shoulder 3, after which the lid may be bodily rotated so as to bring the recesses out of registration with the ugs, thereby bringing the intact portions of the periphery of the lid to position beneath the lugs 6 and confined between the' same and the upper surface of the seating shoulder 3. In this manner the lid is securely held in place, but may be readily removed by rotating the same to again bring the recesses in registration with the lugs.
The form of the invention shown in Figures 2 and 3 of the drawings is especially adapted for employment where the container is to contain liquid or semi-liquid commodities, and in this embodiment the con tainer body is indicated, in general by the numeral 10 and is provided with ashoulder 11 and flange 12, corresponding to the shoulder 3 and flange 4 of the reviously described form. Also in this embodiment the flange 12 is formed at intervals with lugs 13 corresponding to the lugs 6'. The lid in this form is indicated by the numeral 14 and the same is formed to provide an upstandin substantially semi-circular bead 15 provi ing a groove 16 in the under side of the lid extending circumferentially of the same immediately inwardly of the periphery of the lid. The peripheral portion of the 11d between the outer side of the wall of the groove and the peri hery of the same is formed at intervals wit recesses 17 which correspond to recesses 9 in the previously described form. A packing rin 18 is fitted 1nto the roove 16 and the sar ring may be of ruber or any other material found suitable for the purpose and is of circular form in cross section so that the under side of the rlng will rojeot a greater or less distance below t e plane of the under side of the 11d 14 and will therefore be brought into snug contact with the upper surface of the seating shoulder 11 when the lid is applied to the container, the recesses 17 accommodating the ln s 13 as in the previously descrlbed form of t e invention, and the intact marinal portion of the lid between the recesses eing engageable beneath the lugs 13 through rotation of the lid. In applying the lid, in this form of the invention, a certain amount of pressure will require to be exerted in order to engage the intact portion of the'peri hery of the lid with the lugs 13, and there ore the packing ring or gasket 18 will be more or less compressed thereby insuring of an eifectual seahng of the container. I
In the form of the invention shown in Figure 4, the body of the container is indicated by the numeral 19, and the same 1s, as in the previously described form, formed of sheet metal and has its marginal portion at its mouth turned outwardly and formed to provide a seating shoulder 20 and a oove 21 in said shoulder, the groove openmg through the upper side of'the shoulder and being of a proximately semi-circular form. The periphery of the shoulder 20 is provided with an upstanding flange 22 cor- .res onding to the flange 4 previously described, and the flange is formed with a number of ln s 23 as in the revious instance. A pac ing ring or gas et 24 is arranged within the groove 21 and at its u per side projects a greater or less distance a ove the plane of the upper side' of the shoulder 20. The lid, in this form of the invention, is indicated b the numeral 25, and the said lid is provi ed with an overturned marginal portion providing a re-enforcement 26 corres ondin to the re-enforcement 7 the perip cry 0 the lid being formed at lntervals with recesses 27 corresponding to the recesses 9 of the first described form of the invention. In other words, the lid 25 is identical in construction with the lid 2, and may be interchangeablly employed with the container shown in igure 1 or the container shown in Figure 4. The recesses 27 accommodate the lugs 23, as previously described in connection with the recesses 9 and lugs 6, and it will be evident that when the lid is applied with its recesses registering with the lugs 23 and is pressed downwardly and is rotated or turned, the lntact marginal portions thereof will ride beneath the lugs 23 thereby securing the lid in place and sufliciently compressing the gasket 24 to insure of a fluid-tight seal.
Figure 5 of the drawings illustrates a modification in which a container similar to the one shown in Figure 4 is employed in conjunction with a lid similar to the one shown in Figure 2. In this figure the container is indicated by the numeral 28, and the lid by the numeral 29, the container being formed at its mouth with an outstanding shoulder 30 shaped to provide a groove 31 corresponding to the groove 21 in Figure 4. Likewise the shoulder is provided with an upstanding circumferential flange 32 corresponding to the flange 22 and formed to provide lugs 33 corresponding to lugs 23. The packing ring 34 used in connection with this form of container is initially of substantially circular form .in cross section, or of approximately this form, and it will be observed by reference to the figure that when the lid is assembled with the body of the container, the roove 35 of the lid will be disposed over t e groove 31 of the container, and the packing ring 34 will be confined within the two grooves, the intact marginal portion of the lid 29 engaging with the lugs 32.
In the form of the invention shown in Figure 6, the container body is indicated by the numeral 36, and the same is provided with an outstanding shoulder 37 corresponding to the shoulder 3 of the first described form of the invention, this shoulder being provided at its outer edge with a circumferential upstanding flange 38. In this form, lugs or lug strips 39 are secured to the inner side of the flange 38 at intervals, by riveting or otherwise, and the said lugs are inclined in the direction of the sleatin shoulder 37 so that the space between the under side of each lug and the upper side of the seating shoulder 37 is decreased in height from one end of the lug to the other. In this form, the same type of lid is employed as in Figure 1, and is indicated by the numeral 40 and has its marginal portion overturned to provide a circumferential reenforcing portion 41 corresponding to the portion and formed at suitable intervals with recesses 42 to accommodate the lugs 39 when the lid is disposed in place upon the seating shoulder 37, the lid being rotatable, as in the previously described form, so as to bring the marginal portion of the lid beneath the lugs 39. The re-enforced marginal portion of the lid is of a thickness somewhat greater than the shortest distance between the under side of the lugs 39 and the upper side of the shoulder 37 so that as the lid is rotated, the said marginal portion of the lid will bind between the lugs and the seating shoulder, and the lid will thus be locked against any rotative displacement.
In the form of the invention shown in Figure 7 of the drawings, the body of the container is substantially identical with the body shown in Figures 1 and 2, and is indicated by the numeral 43, and is provided with a seating shoulder 44 and flange 45, corresponding to the shoulder 3 and flange 4 of the form shown in Figure 1, the flange being provided with lugs 46 corresponding to lugs 6. In this form thelid, which is indicated by the numeral 47, has secured upon its upper face, at its periphery, an annular re-enforcing ring 48, which registers with the margin of the lid, and said ring and the lid are formed at intervals with recesses 49 to accommodate the lugs .16, Formed upon the ring 48 at intervals in its circumference and in juxtaposition to respective ones of the recesses 49, are ribs 50, the upper surfaces of which are inclined upwardly from the plane of the upper side of the ring 48 and from the adjacent end of the respective recess 49, as indicated by the numeral 51. In assembling the lid 47 with the container body 43, the lid is disposed above the mouth of the body with the re-,
cesses 49 in registration with lugs 46 and lowered to position resting upon the seating shoulder 44. The lid is then rotated as in the previously described forms of the invention, and in this rotation the ribs 50 will be brought to position beneath the lugs 46, and due to the inclination of the upper sides of said ribs will wedge between the said lugs 46, and the seating shoulder, thereby securing the lid against accidental roprevent vertical movement of the lug, and alid disposable upon the shoulder and rotatable to engage at its periphery beneath the lug, the lid having a notch to accommodate the lug and permit of such disposal of the lid.
2. In combination, a container, comprising a sheet metal body having an integral outstanding circumferential seating shoulder provided at its periphery with an up standing flange, a fragment of the upper edge portion of said flange bein overturned inwardly to provide a lug over anging the said shoulder and braced at its ends against vertical movement, and a sheet metal lid having its marginal portion overturned to provide a re-enforced rim, the said rim having a notch to accommodate the said lug and permit of the disposal of the rim of the lid upon the shoulder of the container whereby the lid may be rotated to bring an intact portion of itsrim into engagement beneath the lugs.
In testimony whereof I afiix my signature.
