If CEO's knew what seasoned developers know about Microsoft, they would run away in fear.
If normal people knew what developers know about software, civilization would collapse.
That's why they're out buying iPads and that's where this CromeOS thing is aiming for also.
Selling bicycles is not the way to help drivers fix their car.
I thought this was about Anonymous, not Wikileaks. Anonymous in particular and 4chan in general has not brought to light anything I'm aware of except tentactle porn torrents.
That's it, I've had it with this thread. Read this whole discussion again, but with "Allah" instead of "Anonymous". They're equally real.
Since I know Microsoft well, that is all the reason I need to avoid Mono now and forever.
You know Bill doesn't work there anymore, right?
Geek alert! Geek alert! Geek alert!
Congratulations, you have detected a geek on a website that labels itself "News for nerds".
For a better deal, say that they can have their required materials sold in electronic format for half the cost, but they're only tied to the registered account of the device?
For an even better deal, put all the material on it, up to and including some college level stuff, for free. Keep them learning when the teacher is boring.

Flick off is the universal gesture for sudo.
So that's why that sentence didn't parse... I kept thinking about what that "shiny new one" was and where did they "replace" it for her.

Keep in mind that those people who casually order you to commit crimes, may also casually order other people to commit crimes against you. I would certainly take this into account when dealing out sentences.
Seems like government agents breaking laws like these (theft and fraud) should be subject to harsher penalties to the people who ordered them.
No, it shows how people can be productive programmers with only one limb functioning. Meanwhile, we're reading Slashdot...
Keep in mind that for a long time, Latin (and to some extent, Greek) was the language of information and international communication. If you didn't speak it, you were a nobody.
Kind of like English to a programmer. Imagine where Linux would be if Linus had commented the first tarball in Finnish.
I propose a ban on the words "science" and "scientist". It's so vague that the only time you can use it is when you want to obscure their qualifications.
Besides, if a "non-scientist" had done the same, would it be less newsworthy?
Work without a vision is slavery, Vision without work is a pipe dream, But vision with work is the hope of the world.
