perhaps this way we would get rid of those clients from hell who think that any image can be zoomed and enhanced to HD level

actually, this article says that it *IS* the collective interest that all internet content to be available to be seen

Programming Languages are tools. And tools serve a purpose and are better doing one task than other tools, even those which could be used to serve that task.
I have been coding in PHP for the past 8 years or so. Its really easy to code in PHP, but it has several known flaws which i have to manage to work around.
Last year i got a job that required me to code in Perl. Its ugly as a baboon's ass, but its perfect to work with regex and huge text files.
Recently i have been coding in Python, and its god damn fast! But there are several quirks in the language that i can't stop hating, specially its "We're all consenting adults here" slogan. I have been looking forward to learn Ruby and Java now, or even to get back to my academic days and code something in C/C++

So, stop being a language fanboy, and know your 'enemy' and learn that they are better suited to do some tasks than your favored language.

would mod you up if i could, but since i made so many typo's in my post i hope no one else does it :)

Eartj will remain for a lot longer than the human race will... we are merelly destroying ourselves, not the planet we live in
