I was pointing out the double standard that people tend to have about *nix vs windows (vs mac vs android etc). When it happens on windows, people tend to believe to believe that they caught the analogous cold, not that some malicious programmer wrote software that got on their computer and messed things up. When it happens on *nix, people say "Oh I got hacked".

From my perspective--it is all code--which is all hacking--since your code gets unauthorized access to someones computer. Whether is put there via social engineering, or self propagating code is irrelevant in my mind.

Look at the rest of the comments in this thread as an example of this. Linux doesn't get any viruses? Look at some other posts in this thread to seem people talking about them, or better yet, http://bit.ly/trJ9sd

Mod up! Too bad I already commented...

When it's on windows, its called a "Virus", when its on Linux its called "Hacking".

Ever had a server hacked cause someone uploaded something onto it that gave them root access?

Alternately, you can cache the ga file on your server, which works even better then putting it at the bottom of the page.

I'd play the game with the opening, "Oh he's dead." Which usually draws an immediate silence, and them taking the note to not call that number again.

Not particularly, but it would be awesome if they donated the source to their project.

ColdFusion is a programming language, on the same tier as .NET or PHP. People have been abandoning it because of licensing--but if Adobe wants to sell editors, not server software, they may conceivably ditch the license in order to sell more editors.

I am waiting with baited breath for them to off-load ColdFusion to the open source world.

Since you broadcasted outside of your house, and they drove by. If they had to trespass to acquire this information it would be arguably yours.

4) SQL Server Scales better then MySQL

Office is dead for me at home. Google docs kind of sucks (just like open office) but its good enough when I'm not at work.

Adobe (/Macromedia/Alaire) built their empire by building quality development software (Photoshop, Fireworks, Dreamweaver/HomeSite, InDesign, etc). The CS# suite has/had some of the best pieces of editing software out there for a long time. It seems like there are a couple other contendors out there these days, like Visual Studio (Pretty Awesome) or Eclipse (I'm not a fan), but not a lot.

Honestly, I like fireworks better for vector based drawings. Though it doesn't really handle animations.

That's why I call myself a Computer Scientist. That and I know mostly Physics and Chemistry Scientists, and it pisses them off to no end that they got the PHD and I did not. If I knew more Engineers of any sort I'd probably call myself a Computer Engineer though.
