"...If you're content with the engineering or craft side of things, Marty, this sort of stuff probably isn't important. But if you're interested in computational theory, the mathematical foundations of computing, the computational foundations of mathematics or just what these guys Turing, Gödel, Curry and Church got up to all those years ago, this stuff is pretty core...."

Let's conclude our series of articles on In Re Bilski by looking at what the ruling may mean for Microsoft's threats against Linux. We can start by figuring out what kinds of patents Microsoft might think it owns.

Most C++/Qt programmers love the signals and slots, since they allow getting stuff up and running really fast. KDevelop 4 allows you to see all places where a signal/slot is connected, intelligently rename it, and to intelligently rename any types involved in the signature. Together with highlighting this can help detect broken connections.

Well I simply love KDE4 but one thing that really annoyed me was the way firefox looked in KDE4 and so after googling a bit I found some simple solutions to make firefox look more Kde4ish.

Over the past few months I've been quietly tracking our upstream and downstream interactions. The motivation for this has been my experience with the KDE 4 series, in which we have both been on more people's radar (when was the last time NVidia mentioned KDE 3 in a driver release?) and seen more train-wrecks both up- and down-stream from us.

In this article by Andre Bogus, we will be focusing on migrating from Apache to Lighttpd web server. Lighttpd is the perfect solution for every server that is suffering load problems, as it has a small memory footprint compared to other web-servers, effective management of the cpu-load, and advanced feature set, such as FastCGI, SCGI, Auth, Output-Compression, URL-Rewriting, and many more.

Glancing at the features list for Fedora 10, at first you might be unimpressed. Many of the features are basically infrastructure improvements, fixing known problems and enhancing performance while laying the groundwork for future developments.
