And I won't be able to filter through the vast quantity of information. I wouldn't be able to manipulate the results, etc. Heck, I wouldn't even be able to pay my bills on time, because I have two choices for one of my bills: two-hour monthly drive + day off work or just use this nifty thing they call "Internet"

What the fuck is this? Who the hell even THOUGHT of putting this on Slashdot? It's common knowledge among slashdotters, because most of us are programmers or have dealt with programming in our past and by "most" I mean 999/1000 (no joke intended). You can find this in absolutely any book that explains how computer math works. You can find this information all over the Internet and in tons of books. This is not news, it's just a reminder for beginner programmers who've used computers for only a few months. In school we used to do jokes like these, showing our class mates that the Calculator in Windows was broken and the teachers always explained to us why they were broken. My parents who only use Yahoo! Messenger at home and Excel at work know this.

I know that journalism is sensationalism, but this story just plain sucks.

Fuck you and you shitty news, Slashdot! I've had enough of your crap and I'm OUT OF HERE. Seriously, how do I delete my Slashdot username?

Half? They're ALL malware (except for the last one, of course ;)

OK, guys, now everyone should shut up about anything the government does, because it went open-source, right?
*crickets*
Does the Obama administration really think they can buy us off that easily? It's a significant step forward, but I don't think we should bother to praise them in any way.

Where do you live?

Do you have any idea what that would do to the March Pi Day?

Misleading title, just 'cause they can.

You didn't need to reply. If you tell someone to STFG, they'll call you an ass and consider your argument to be invalid. If you give someone a direct link, they'll call you subjective and invalidate your argument. This is the tubez, get used to it.

I think you are mistaking me for some sloppy developer that uses duct tape to stitch some HTML tag soup into something that resembles a blog or a shopping cart. And gues wat? [sic] I've earned MOST of my customers because my website is cooler than others. You have no idea what you're talking about, yet you just butt in the discussion like the OP. There are things like design patterns, test driven development, usability testing, etc. that make up a great application that looks and feels nice and is easy to use. People use my website for many hours during the day, so I have to do my best to make their work easier.

And gues wat? [sic] Many people visit my website instead of the competittors' because it's cooler than theirs.

Often (not always):
#1: rounded corners are cool
#2: complement colors are cool
#3: not having to see the whole page reload just to see an extra word is cool (ajax)
#4: clicking on something to show/hide elements instantly is cool

Compare this ugly website to this ugly website. If you don't feel the difference, you are a stone cold redneck. They're both ugly, but any human being can "feel" the difference.

And gues wat? [sic] That means absolutely nothing (it just says that many incompetents curse on others, it doesn't say anything about why you quoted me). Even if it did, it still would still mean nothing coming from you.
And gues wat? [sic] I find that often times incompetent people will try to enter discussions. I don't care if that doesn't make sense, what you said doesn't make any sense either

Please go back to your corner and read a bit about eye candy before I sue you for copyright infringement because you copied what I said without using <quote> tags.
