"cutting the number of needed interlinking systems and technology down to a bare minimum"

Yeah that's the beauty of Java. In our company they use a lot of .NET and many of the teams gave up on moving things to 64 bit. For us with Java we were done in a week.

Very cool! I wrote a script a long while ago which you might like (or find a use for).

It's a next-gen script but could be adapted. It's got good pacing and it's an easy read. :)

Cool. It just reminds me of a talk someone gave about a big project in C++ which had a hellish 20 hour build. :) What's your relationship with Star Trek Phase II? It looks like you write a number of articles for them on their site.

Well dude if you're maintaining an app this complex what do you want? To be baby sat or something? Java is the least awful thing about your situation.

Then you're an idiot. We Java people appreciate C# being the beta test language for us.

Call the wahhhmbulance! Dude spend any time in .NET and you will learn to appreciate Java. Try porting any non-trivial .NET app to 64 bit. Have fun with that. Once COM comes in to the picture (and you can never avoid &*^*&^*&^ COM even now in the 21st century) you're already fuked.

That's not been my experience. We've been maintaining a large web app under tomcat with Struts for 12 years and have upgraded from Java 3 though Java 7 without any significant compatibility issues. Basically at the beginning of our release cycle we put in the new Java and the new Tomcat and deploy and get to work....

I'm more concerned about stagnation rather than over population. We need new people to have new ideas.

It's right next to the jetpack.

It's the LESS daytime in the winter months that bothers me so much. In the summer I have sunset at 9pm and in winter it's 5pm. It's just totally ludicrous.

Idiot writers.

No. The purpose of the existence of DirectX is to prevent cross-platform solutions.

Have you managed to get printing to work on Linux yet?

Some people (like toddler Alex Navarro) don't like the slow pace of these kinds of games. Web reviews are useless anyway. Youtube is a much better place to see if a game is good or not.

TotalBiscuit's review is worth watching if you want to decide for yourself.
