Thanks, I stand corrected.

You are trying to convince me that OOP is not related to inheritance, polymorphism and encapsulation. Sure, you can do without it. But I don't care what Alan said about it, it's still a pretty damn important part of programming with classes and objects.

And Flash is not JIT. You get some flash code, compiles it using Flash or Flex into a .swf file and then you send that file to the server. With Javascript, you get some code and just send it to the server. See the difference?

I, again, don't care what the engine will use at the end. That's semantics, we would be arguing all the way down to the hardware. The important part is: to get your AS code running, you must put it through a compiler. This is important because it reveals syntax errors, for example, includes the currently present classes around it in the file and correct general simple programming mistakes ("this class doesn't have a foo property", "this variable is the wrong type", etc).

How do we stop?

Disturb him some more and he might never submit another of his solutions to the world.

His beard does look like it has it's own flora.

Damn +5 limit.

His reply is better than the FTA.

A story, an opinion and a lesson.

I have never wished more for mod points as now. I promise when I get some, I'll come back here.

Wonderful idea, until a certain imageboard finds about it.

What a shame, I have just noticed that they are in the same top-level domain. I hope I don't lose my geek card over it.

The website hosting the text file was also slashdotted. That's a truly impressive achievement.

del Toro making movies about the stories from the Silmarillion. Seems like an excellent idea, but it might lose some of the awe. Reading about how beautiful the silmarils were, for example, is one thing, actually seeing them on the big screen is another. It's a very delicate path, but if done well, I would kill to see that movie.

I think you misunderstood the concept of "The Force".

And don't forget to put a big sleep call to make the installing process look important. Unfortunately they wouldn't be the firsts to do that.
