Comment Quit the job! (Score 1) 1019
If your boss is that stupid and you can't ge rid of him, get rid of the job. Anyway, if he persists on that direction, probably, soon there will be no job left... been there, done that ;-)
Actually, the patents will apply most everywhere in Europe.
No, they won't. EC doesn't recognize software patents
Under the EPC, and in particular its Article 52, "programs for computer" are not regarded as inventions for the purpose of granting European patents (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_patents_under_the_European_Patent_Convention).
Save the planet, use clean nuclear energy!
Is there anything similar to "clean nuclear energy"?
Are you sure?
How can I be sure?
"First, they came for the pornogrphers...
as I was no a pornographer, I didn't speak out..."
I guess you know the rest...
Maybe it could learn to recognize someone throwing up their hands in disgust and slamming their fists on the desk...
Maybe it could even recognize the user throwing a chair in anger and flush the memory to disk before being hit...
Oh no, it wouldn't have enough time, I guess
big productions are done for.
No problem, here. Most of then aren't worth the time I spent viewing them... still, I remember several "low cost" productions that, most likelly, will stay in the history of cinema for many long years: "Easy Ryder", in the US, and most of the european cinema between 1950 and 1980 (Arrabal, Bunuel, Fellini, Pasolini, Polanski, and so may others).
I'm sure there will be more great "low budget" movies done in the USA... I just failed to remember them
They will be dependant not on their skill but on their patronage.
You mean: "They will be dependant on their skill and not on their patronage", don't you?
As far as I understand, for several decades, the real artists have been totally screwed by the major labels. Here are two examples:
Frank Zappa:
I'll prove to you that I'm bad enough to go to hell
Because I have been through it!
I have seen it!
It has happened to me!
Remember, I was signed with Warner Brothers
for eight fuckin' years!!!
(in "Tities an Beers")
Sex Pistols:"Fuck EMI" (in "The Great Rock and Roll Swindle")
I do believe that you, americans, have to fix your entire law system... it is resembling Kafka's books
The shit is, that if the US justice goes down the drain, it will soon spread all over the world. We see some disturbing signs here in Europe, too...
Please, fix your screwed patent system, so we all can sleep a little better
In the case of XP is legal, there is no word in the EULA about virtualizing (guess they didn't knew the word, then).
In the case of Vista I think that only the premium/platinum/golden/whatever version allows you to legaly install it inside a virtual machine.
Yes, you can do replication (the master/slave thing, aka S/M ^^) with it.
Unfortunately, it's not that easy... as far as I know it doesn't support replication of tables that contains sequences
Besides that, yes, PostgreSQL rocks
For God's sake, stop researching for a while and begin to think!
