I'm hardly a fan, but geez, why don't you just start legislating taste? I sense a bit of jealousy in your egotistical, self-serving post as well.

...that everything is causing autism in children. Shit, I'm probably autistic. And please, that microwave does NOT belong there.
There's a campaign that was start to Knight Alan Turing, which would be an appropriate honor bestowed by the government which treated him so horrifically. More information is available here:

Can't wait for the due process... I've been wondering how the "I Did It For the Lulz!" defense would hold up in a court of law for years!
...of these freeloaders coming to our shores from the ocean who don't even speak English! They don't pay any taxes either!
SciFi/SyFy has being going downhill since Bonnie Hammer took over over CEO in 2001. They never gave a Babylon 5 series a real chance, interfering with the one pilot they did attempt. Add on to that the whole fiasco of promising two seasons to Farscape before pulling a bait and switch, followed up by bringing in Shannon Frickin' Doherty to do that godawful Scare Tactics, and the writing has been on the wall for some time.
Now she's on to killing NBC Universal. How people like this keep getting more chances after abject failures is beyond me.
Time to kill it, not fund it.
Apparently you missed this memo... Blackberry Enterprise Server Express is now free, but yes, still only supports Exchange and Domino. Not my cup of tea, but yeah, it is free now:

With UIs, beauty always ends up being in the eye - and fingers / thumbs - of the beholder. I love my Blackberry phone, and yes, I've tried iPhone (but not an Android yet).
That said, I won't touch the PlayBook with a 10000ms ping.
So you can not get your email, calendar, and contacts, ALL AT THE SAME TIME. Booya!
Hardly a Microsoft fan, but two seconds of Googling would have gotten you here (or any number of other sources):
...you think this tidbit from the article might have been included in the teaser. Lojack for laptops, encryption and passwords should be required for any company or academic laptop containing sensitive information.
{crypt} has only ever supported eight characters. I've run into this on older Solaris systems for years. Move up to {ssha} already.

That is all.
Apparently these folks aren't familiar with the concept of "Copy & Paste"... most end users have a far better grasp of C&P than what constitutes fair use in IP law.
Good luck with overcoming that, AP!
Technical solutions to human problems always work out so well.
I'm a firm believer that the theory, science, and logic of programming is far more important than the language itself. Once you understand the important aspects of elegant design, the rules of most languages are the same. I graduated in 1996 - a while back now - but remember that the thing I thought most sorely lacking from my education was a firm understanding of database architecture and design. That is going to be just as important as understanding solid programming in any job. If a database is well designed, the code should almost write itself, once you understand end users requirements.
After that mouthful, Tiobe does a fairly good job at monitoring trends in programming language popularity. Java/C/C++ are 1/2/3 according to them. You can see their full list and trends here:
