Ha!

No real programmer will be told how to indent his code.

...because the younger programmers are willing to use newer, completely garbage languages such as Java and Python, neither of which can come even close to the power and beauty of older (but better) languages such as Perl. And in today's world it's not what's works well that's important any more, it's what's sexy. So it has to be Java (with all it's idiotic and broken GUI counterparts) or Python /Django or Ruby/Rails. Older programmers who aren't willing to sell their souls don't stand a chance in a world like this.

Spoken like a true Keynesian.

Well, therein lies [a] problem. Any such law is completely bogus in the first place.

Just about all modern whacko environmentalism can be accurately summed up as vain symbolism -- at best.

I know I risk losing karma to post this, because there will always be the lilly-livered who downgrade posts they disagree with. So be it. Real karma will get them back. ;)

Dude, your code sucks!

Heh. To each his own. The more bitter, the better (to a point).

Yeah, hops was put into beer for preservation originally, but it stayed in there after air travel was invented because it's YUMMY. :)

I didn't mean to imply wheat beers are not ales. But do mean to imply they taste horrendous (to me).

Personally, I strongly prefer an IPA any day.

I stand corrected. I thought wheat beers were lagers. But in fact, they are top-fermented like ales.

Add Wheat Beer to the list of "horsepiss" along with lagers, then. :-)

Erdinger, while made of quality ingredients compared to the average American horsepiss, is still a lager.

And all lager is horsepiss.

Ok, so if I know I want, say, for example, some program that will rip music from a CD but I don't have any clue what it might be called, what do I do, precisely?

My keyboard doesn't have a "Super" key. And if it did, if I'm running an application I don't commonly use, I often don't know the name of it, so I would like a categorized menu of software to choose from.

Mark my words (so you can point and laugh if I'm wrong)

Global extinction is farther from reality than the human could possibly fathom. Beyond that, however, you'll have to face it: we're all going to die.

Why spend time and resources changing what is a natural cyclical phenomena? Such an exercise can only end badly.
