Windows script host (cscript) allows you to execute js files in addition to vbscript (vbs). This is particularly useful in extending the functionality of batch files. This can be useful in a lot of circumstances build process, installation etc.

The update is going to include full-screen terminal.

1. Most definitely yes. An understood agreement is all well and good until one of your clients decides not to pay. If you keep working for while I assure you that it will happen.

2. Ask the company you will doing the work for to write up a contract. Read through it if you find anything that would need a lawyers attention then you can hire one.

3. You probably should look for corporate lawyer locally, ideally someone who can understands your situation and not charge you for every second.

Yes you are right, India and the U.S. have a lot in common. The big difference here in the U.S. is the larger middle class compared to India. The other two big factors are corruption which is much more widespread and the caste system which won't go away anytime soon.

Despite all that I believe India has moved in the right direction in the last 20 years. I couldn't imagine how it would have been if not for the reforms of the nineties, which I personally believe has benefited all. Yes the rich have gotten richer but the opportunities that didn't exist before do now for the middle class and the poor. People don't have to depend on the government to provide jobs.

Seems like you can get this data for any month or year (http://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/sotc/global/2010/11). I am not expert on this, is there anything special about January 2011?

I will be very surprised if objectivism or for that matter any philosophy , can be condensed to a movie. The fact that Ayn Rand chose to convey her ideas, although not all of it was entirely new at that point, in the form of a novel, made it more accessible to people but still left a lot of question unanswered.

I don't think it is fair to include free apps in the analysis and then ignore the revenue that may have been generated with ads. The article does end with a note saying that $2b was paid out in 31 months for apps compared to the music.

Would be more apt to call it the dark age of the carriers.

How exactly is it 13 times worse than what we previously knew?

wepay.com is one option, their fees are listed here wepay.com/about/fees

As far as I know the security concerns wouldn't be any different to connecting from a Windows box. This should help you http://weblog.bignerdranch.com/?p=6&page=3.

I most certainly didn't mean to say he was innocent, I am sorry if it was understood as that.

He doesn't actually work for the company. Rapiscan Systems is a client of his security firm Chertoff Group. Here is a more detailed article http://www.boston.com/news/nation/washington/articles/2010/0...

Assuming you have ruled out Chrome and Opera, what exactly do you mean by "lightest"?

It appears number portability and iPod Touch support is not on their priority list. I have no clue why. With those two features, personally, I would be free from cell phone carriers.

In case you are interested in developing on the Microsoft platform instead of Apache and MySQL, Web Platform installer is the way to go. Makes it a lot easier to install Visual Studio Express, ASP.Net MVC which otherwise is a real pain sometimes.

Link peertransfer.com. Sounds promising.

Link to the actual page http://hntrends.timepurge.com/. It is pretty cool.

Selling is hard. Without knowing the product, the sales he has generated it would be hard for us to tell you whether or not you should be worried. You should talk to him bring up your concerns. He will probably bring up a few of his own. The solution may be as simple as you don't have a sales team or the current sales team is insufficient.

With that reasoning Ballmer should also be gone. The bottom line for MS may look good but after a decade of him not being able to come up with a game plan for mobile devices, which is where the future is, I am surprised the board hasn't shown the door for him. Clearly at this point their usual approach to licensing their OS to mobile devices in large quantities for cheap isn't going work (Android is free) but they still seem to be pursuing the same strategy. Pretty soon it might be hard to keep MS relevant. With all the talent they have a strong leader is what they need to turn them around, I don't see that being Ballmer.

Apple didn't buy SproutCore. Although they have contributed to the project. They use the framework for MobileMe and iWork.com.

The site is a little slow. Here are a few things you can do to speed it up. Get rid of Viewstate where it isn't necessary. Move your javascript to a separate file, where you can, so it won't be included in every page that is returned. Also you are loading jQuery and Microsoft Ajax libraries, but you seem to be only using jQuery.

I personally would like the pages of the document scroll horizontal rather than vertical. What would be really cool is identifying the columns in a pdf document and formatting them such that it shows two or three narrow columns that I can scroll through. Basically something similar to this (http://amarsagoo.info/tofu/) on the web. This would make reading on the web a lot more easier than it is today.

How does one regiter these domain names? Are there any registrar who currently support this?

It would be hard to pay for something that I know very little about. There isn't much information about the cache engine itself on your website. How does this compare with memcached? Numbers on the performance would give us more insight.

And MonoTouch, Unity3D. John Gruber has good write up on it.
