Yep. Delaying sounds like an interesting marketing move. Outright making it exclusive seems like a horrible move. One that could be bad for their image and cause them to lose sales.

Can you prove that it's worse, though?
I have nothing against textbooks (I have a lot of hard and soft cover programming books) but when I commute, I usually can't carry more than 1 or 2. Tablet with epub/pdf's is a blessing.
I'm not saying it's worth the price but it does have some great advantages.
You have slashdot account and you voice your opinions and activities in it (telling us what you do and don't have). If that's not social I don't know what is.
Comments like
if the niggers in the ghetto were not such a bunch of criminal gangstas then racism would not be an issue,
the bleeding heart liberals and ghetto niggers can holler "racism" all they want, and i will holler "go to hell nigger gangster" because i have a right to know where the danger zones are despite it being populated with mostly trashy criminal niggers
and many, MANY others can be data mined and tied to you (don't think a pseudonym and alternative mail account do much in the way of privacy).
You have absolutely no grounds on telling other people what to do or giving advice about "not getting used by the internet".
Reddit has terms of service and rules that you adhere to when posting or otherwise participating in the community. They don't have an obligation to accommodate those rules to your liking.
That doesn't destroy your freedom of speech. You're free to email or use some other service which allows you to communicate that information. You can try Slashdot, if you want.
I was going to potentially suggest it but saw you already use it.
Currently we use FreeFileSync with a custom piece of Javascript to make batch files that synchronize e.g. folders C:\projects\123_ProjectName\ and Z:\123_ProjectName\ if the local folder exists. However, that solution lacks versioning, real-time sync and deletion support. It only syncs when we press a button, and then older files are overwritten by newer files (two way sync; older files go to a "sync-deletions"-folder).
FreeFileSync HAS batch files that can run and you can always schedule jobs (at login, connection with server, etc). You can customize the sync and even use versioning. It supports names of drives instead of letters as well...
Anyway, I'll add to the voices that said that you need to use some sort of Source Control for projects. Even if it's only to be able to 'blame'.
Not really. They do happen every time (at least in slashdot) someone criticizes a particular policy of the Israeli government, then someone else starts equating it with criticism of Jews.

It's your responsibility. Not the site's. Otherwise, they'd have to accomodate to every small request.
I do find it interesting how many Atheists are working very hard to formalize Atheism. Creating a more rigid structure that contains many of the trappings of Religions.
You could replace that with any ideology or opinion or group.
I was looking through your posts trying to figure you out and I'm puzzled about the whole surrounding a word with underscores. What's the idea behind it?
Also, claiming that proof will come at a point where it won't be verifiable is not a valid answer. It's not reproducible either.
May I ask what's your particular set (or lack of beliefs)?
Nope. You don't need to doubt everything to make certain claims. I also claim there ARE no hogoblins and that doesn't make me a huge believer. It just makes me rational.
Something doesn't exist unless we can observe/measure it somehow. I'm sure I can find plenty of things you assert where I can say you're blindly putting your faith in.
The whole agnostic vs atheist thing has to be with political correctness and moderates/extremes wanting to discredit or move away from those they dislike.
I can also point at ridiculous people in your group and claim they represent you.
Pretending atheists are anything more than, say "people who assert gravity is real" or "people who deny the existence of unicorns unless given proof" is being disingenuous.
also, arguably very different to a point it's hard to compare.
If we're talking about productivity with an OS. I'll stick to bash+gnu tools every time although I'm very glad that powershell exists.
"programming languages"? I don't understand what you mean, unless you're talking about IDEs.
You're committing the same flaw of the user you replied to.
Giving every user the same stereotype and personality.
Someday we'll realize all these divisions and patriotism only help to keep us occupied and divided instead of trying to find a way to avoid the corruption of those with power/money.
We're all humans after all, no matter what religion, ideology or place of birth.
