    How is (are) cloud computers measured in size? Is it number of servers, or processors or bandwidth or what?



    Like the google clouds, what spec or size are they? How do they, or will they, compare.



    Anyone know?

    Seriously: if you'd like someone to read this, how about a preview/precis on what it means and its relevance? For starters: does the article say it's still relevant?



    Seriously you're on the intarweb look it up - it will take less time than it did to make the comment.



    But, to save your mouse:



    For those interested in Marxist doctrine, Kolakowski dissects it within a chronological framework, laying out its antecedents in Hegelian philosophy and varieties of socialism current in the 1830s and 1840s. Conceding Karl Marx's originality in formulating his precepts, seminally in The German Ideology (1846), Kolakowski subjects them to withering analysis, especially in their relation to Marx's claim to have discovered a science of human history. There is no mistaking Kolakowski for a Marxist, but his grasp of the interrelationship of Marxian concepts from alienated labor to historical materialism to revisionism is complete. Kolakowski also understands Marxism's propensity for schismatic development, justifying the author's description of this history as a handbook of the principal Marxist theoreticians. Gilbert Taylor

    It seems that every company that files patents lawsuits against Apple, does not make, manufacture or sell anything. And just like this one, they have no business plan either.



    It is the next big game after class-action lawsuit. It will only get worse. It is time for Apple to form its own law corporation and save attorneys fees.

    There is a reason why most countries don't bother with the US patent system...

    All inventions should benefit all humankind.

    No exclusivity. Everyone should have access to all.



    Yeah, why should people be compensated for their work?

    Everything should be free!



    I'm dropping by your place tonight and "borrowing" your stuff. Don't lock the doors, I need to have access to your house

    I am impressed by your ability to cut and paste an abstract!



    Let me translate what it says, following which, I'll ask the same question that I asked before (perhaps you're smart enough to answer?): "The author - who is not craven to the Marxist ideology - provides a solid history of Marxist thought, but questions whether it has discovered a way to interpret all human events. He seems to know his stuff."



    So here's my question, again: what does this mean with regard to socialism, and what is it's relevance to anything going on today?

    In the Piedmont region of NC, not in the research triangle, also not in any of the high tax, business predatory states of the Northeast or Mid-Atlantic.
