Too many times a researches made a fancy spread sheet, added some stuff over the years and then wants a decent application that does the same.
Many times the problems they're working on are very interesting, but it's a BIG challenge to rewrite everything to a normal application :)
But of course we like challenges like that :)

Now it's Shelve / Commit.
But even that might be history soon as I already have seen some auto-shelve plugins for my IDE.

That would be silly.
It would be as silly as... wiping all the computers of an entire university ;)

Are you telling me you still keep all your data on your C-Drive instead of an other partition, an other drive or NAS or even on a cloud?

"Given that much more hidden spy cameras are available for far less than the $1500 cost of Glass, what will it take for general acceptance to finally take hold?"

Just wait for people to find out you're wearing one of those...

And psychologists don't know Jack ship about people on the internet. Either.

Still, the mechanism "you do something, you get something in return" seems to work better than "do nothing and get stuff for free" since well, you figure it out...
