a fitting tribute to Dennis Ritchie and John McCarthy
by Chris Kiagiri 10 Nov '11

10 Nov '11

Many of us have probably read lots of obituaries and articles about Steve Jobs since his recent death, but not nearly as much about these two. The obituary of the week in *The Economist* is for Dennis Ritchie and John McCarthy. http://www.economist.com/node/21536536 A very nice read. Both men get the kudos they deserve. -- Chris Kiagiri | Sales Engineer/Technical Account Manager, Partner Solutions Organization (PSO) Africa | ck(a)google.com | +254-20-360-1000 *----------------* To find out what Google is doing in Africa, visit the Google Africa Blog<http://google-africa.blogspot.com/> or follow @googleafrica <http://twitter.com/googleafrica> on Twitter.

Microsoft goes after Huawei
by David Kiania | Asentric Consulting Ltd 10 Nov '11

Interesting story: Microsoft goes after Huawei http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology/2011/nov/08/huawei-microsoft-android-p… The Chinese telecoms giant Huawei has confirmed that Microsoft is demanding royalty payments from it over products using Android software. Think they want to arm twist HW to start producing Windows 8 phones ;-) The more things change the more the remain the same.

Alvin, Do you have any external USB battery packs like these: http://www.amazon.com/New-Trent-IMP500-External-Blackberry/dp/B0013G8PTS/re… If you can get them at a decent price we will purchase 50 right away and at least another 150 in the next 6 months.

Something about wireless
by Simon Mbuthia 09 Nov '11

09 Nov '11

Hey geeks, I have a question. There is something that I do not understand about how wireless technology works. I have an iPad and a laptop with me. I have setup an ad hoc wireless network/hotspot so that I can access the web using the iPad. The wireless adapter's IP address is 192.168.0.1, while the one for the iPad is 169.254.x.x What I seek to understand is how these two devices are able to communicate while being in different subnets - that is, how is the routing between 192.168.0.0/24 and 169.254.0.0/16 done? Curious me.
