I have, but there's a lack of smart people and firing all the shitty programmers doesn't seem to be a solution, seeing as there's still a lot of demand for programmers, even those who inflict strokes on the good ones when they take a look at the mediocres' code.

What would you suggest? Your course of action is akin to those of revolutionary anarchists in regards to dealing with government. Setting governments on fire and making mediocre programmers redundant are both solutions that could work -theoretically at least- but are completely impractical. I'm not sure the solution can come from academia, by the way.

I know you're trolling, but nobody wants to work at McDonald's, even if they don't have passion. It's the job of passionate and capable programmers to create adequate templates and frameworks that reduce the damage done by shitty programmers.

People without passion also need a job.

Sorry, based on the previous AC comment (you?) I thought it was shitposting time.

Windows 97 was the nickname for Windows 95 OSR2

Yup, it's the Chinese reading. I don't know much Chinese but it seems 4 is also a homonym with death (si4 if I'm not mistaken).
Also, the reading for death in Japanese (shi) came from Chinese, it's the on-yomi. So yeah, it's more of a China thing.

Windows 7 is "uindouzu sebun" (seven) in Japanese, and not "nana" or "shichi." Same goes for 8 (eito instead of "hachi"), So 9 would've been "uindouzu nain" and not "ku."

Just kidding, I know you can't seriously answer this. I wish you could, though.

This is coming from someone who doesn't follow all this stuff, so I'm not being completely sarcastic, but hasn't Obama called Seal Team 6 a million times already? What makes it different this time? What makes the US think they will win this war?

Propaganda is to get people talking about this, doesn't matter if it's good or bad talk. And I think they're succeeding. BTW, are they using Final Cut to edit these videos? For some reason I find that hilarious.

Wow. I mean, it's not the most graphic (as in gore) video I've seen but damn if this isn't awesome propaganda for "the terrorists."

I think the US still thinks it's fighting against "sand niggers" and doesn't realize the true scope of what they're fighting against. I'm also surprised at their English proficiency and quality of video-editing.

Is there another community similar in scope to Couchsurfing? What would you recommend?

I think those amplifiers are passive, but don't quote me on that.

It crushes my heart saying this, because I used to love them, but AMD's CPUs are shit nowadays. I don't even like their low-end.
