also.. it is difficult to remember if one saw somthing, I see a hundred photos in facebook every week, sometimes at work sometimes drunk at home, sometimes I see an album again because I don't remember seeing it before but then one photo in the album which I do remember makes aware I had seen them all before.

But what do I care what other people do in PHP or whatever other language? I care about what I can do and what my coleagues can do. We are very good and efficient after 11 years using PHP. I had used Microsoft languages before that and I am very happy to have made the switch to PHP.

many extensions are made for free by people that completed them and perhaps no longer have the time to update them. That does not mean they are no longer needed or wanted by the existing users. You can't blame the guy who did the extension in his free time or demand that he put some more time to it.

The fail is that a scientist went out and said he is "100% sure life exists on this planet".

Really? Who said the scientists said that?

You should stop reading news from that outlet immediately, because it's bullshit that makes the Weekly World News headlines like "Space Whelk Poised to Consume Earth" and "Woman's Varicose Veins used as Treasure Map" seem like responsible journalism.

CNN quoted some guy named Steven who supposedly said it http://news.blogs.cnn.com/2010/09/30/100-percent-chance-for-life-on-newly-found-planet/

there are probably many similar examples with dogs in thinking about the future. Mine is no genius but when chasing a ball and getting close to a wall he knows it will bounce back and just waits for it. When I go behind a wall that is hallway he knows I will be coming out of the other end and will wait for me there. In the morning when I fill his bowl of water he does not drink but goes crazy because he knows my next move will be to fill the food bowl. I am pretty sure he can tell when I am getting ready to leave the house without him and when I am getting ready to take him out, even though it is basically the same thing and do not follow a regular schedule.

the only change that can come from these DDOS attacks is more investment in network security (more costs which could end up driving consumer prices up) and more severe cybercrime laws. I don't see how anyone can benefit from this.
And shutting down sites because you dont agree with what the owner says or does goes against free speech as people will keep quiet just to avoid being attacked.
