Motorola Sues Microsoft over 16 patents...

By -
As if there weren't already enough patent suits related to smartphone technologies, Motorola just announced its widely anticipated countersuit against Microsoft. Its subsidiary Motorola Mobility filed complaints with two US District Courts (Southern District of Florida and Western District of Wisconsin). Motorola already litigates with Apple in those and other courts. According to Motorola, the patents relate to technologies in the fields of operating systems, video codecs, email, instant messaging, object-oriented software architectures, WiFi, and graphical passwords. Motorola claims Windows, the Live messenger, Windows Phone, Outlook and other Microsoft products infringe. Motorola's action is no surprise given that all of the companies sued over patent infringement by Android — with the exception of Google — have already countersued.

Following are main features/downsides EAV has over classic row modeling technique. A row-modeled table is  homogeneous. I t will always carry same type of data in contrast to  EAV modeled  table where this cannot be an issue. The data type of the value column/s in a row-modeled table is pre-determined by the nature of the facts it records. In contrast, in an EAV table, the conceptual data type of a value in a particular row depends on the attribute in that row. A Row modeling technique data increase only in one direction i.e. from Upside-down whereas in EAV data model data increase in both directions i.e. from upside down as well as from left-right.

The bug in the name of the C++ language.

By -
From the internet, a popular quote goes like this:   "Of course, while it is true that the ++ operator gives the C++ language its name, it also led to the first joke about the language. C++ haters point out that even the name of the language contains a bug: 'After all, it should really be called ... ++C, because we only want to use a language after it has been improved.' " We will now see why this joke is so absolutely hilarious.   int main() { int x = 40; int y = ++x + 1; std::cout << x << '\n' << y; } Output:  x = 41, y = 42. The pre-increment operator first increments the value of   x  (the ++) and then stores it in the variable. Hence, when the code is executed, x becomes 41 AFTER being assigned to   y  . The post-increment works the other way, the value is first stored in the lvalue before being assigned to the rvalue of the variable being incremented.   int main() { int x = 40; int y = x++ + 1; std::cout <&l
