B-2 bomber crash…Green Zone attacks…U.S. orders Serbian staff out
HAGATNA, Guam (AP) Two Air Force pilots are in good condition after ejecting safely during the crash of a B-2 stealth bomber in Guam Saturday. The military says it’s the first crash of a B-2 bomber since it was unveiled 20 years ago.
BAGHDAD (AP) A series of rockets or mortars have been fired toward Baghdad’s U.S.-protected Green Zone. A military spokesman confirms the zone has been hit, but doesn’t provide details. The Saturday attacks come a day after radical Shiite cleric Muqtada al-Sadr ordered his militia fighters to cease attacks for another six months.
STATE DEPARTMENT (AP) The State Department has ordered nonessential diplomats and the families of all American personnel at the U.S. Embassy in Belgrade to leave Serbia. The move is in anticipation of more anti-American violence after Serb rioters stormed and torched the embassy Thursday.
Washington (AP) The Bush administration says some telecom companies are resisting government wiretapping orders because Congress let a terrorist surveillance law expire a week ago. The law would have protected companies from civil lawsuits.
HOPKINSVILLE, Ky. (AP) The author best known for writing “The French Connection” has died at the age of 82. Robin Moore died Thursday at a hospital in southwestern Kentucky. “The French Connection” was first published in 1969 and inspired a movie by the same name that won five Oscars two years later.

    Ouch, talk about process isolation…!

    You confused uptime with cold age there.

    I see where the Arab states are claiming that video footage shows no ship traffic where the 1st 2 cables were cut. I’m surprised that Al Qa’ida hasn’t claimed responsibility since this is their method of operations: near simultaneous similar attacks against similar infrastructure targets.Perhaps it was an Iranian supplied mini-submarine.

    This is very impressive. My own experience, which is mostly limited to SBCL and CMUCL, is that Lisp environments are somewhat brittle, though I admittedly do development (and sometimes do some fairly intensive things), and not deployment. Could anyone with experience deploying applications on, say, SBCL share their experiences with its stability? I’m pretty sure the commercial implementations are extremely stable, but I have no first or second-hand knowledge of the free ones.

    RTFA, A navy plane crashed in the ocean, not on the same runway.

    Is SBCL as reliable? ’cause LispWorks is on the non-free side of things:http://www.lispworks.com/buy/prices-1c.html

    That doesn’t contradict anything I said. Worker process management is built in precisely because it’s unheard of to expect processes to not crash for various reasons. By default they even shut themselves down after 20 minutes of inactivity, and the health tab lets you set all kinds of options in which worker processes are automatically killed. This all serves to give the illusion of stability, 2 yeas of uptime on a single process is actual stability. IIS worker processes just don’t stay up that long. Most of my stuff uses IIS as well, I’m not knocking it, I’m just saying don’t underestimate how impressive 2 years of uptime for a single process is, IMHO, IIS can’t do it, and I run about 20 or so servers so I have some idea of what IIS can do.

    Nothing surprises me anymore, America has had it good for years, Gaining there wealth on Oil being sold in Dollars, Now that Opec could possibly change to selling in Euro’s, America’s Economy is at risk. It’s only a matter of time before this happens, and when it does, America’s Economy will collapse,

    Yes Mr. Smug Lisp weenie I’m well aware that had he chosen to host the site with the Erlang VM running on a single system it would have been affected as well.I was trying to inject some humour into reddit.CLOS is lovely and I do like it very much thank you.Though running Erlang on a single system is missing the whole point about Erlang in the first place - that is the subtle point you were missing.edit: speeling
