Holy crap, you have two eyes and ten fingers on each hand!?

Try Google Reader. All the fun of live bookmarks, and they organize themselves based on time (Most recent, older, etc) and allow you to view "Only unread items". That was what made me upgrade from Live Bookmarks.

"And the password security questions can't be user-defined"

^_^ Sure they can.

"Who was your first teacher?"

"2011 Honda".

Or did you answer those questions honestly?

//User points out to ATMAvatar that almost all products are produced by two or three companies, and that almost all those companies have the same horrible practices.

//User points out that your choice tends to be "I will support this asshole or that asshole", not "I will support this asshole or this great guy!".

Good point, of COURSE Americans are not obsessed with Vigilante justice.

Now excuse me, I must go watch Thor and Priest (And we have reruns of Ironman 1 and 2, and I must check my tivo for Chuck and 24 to see if those are ready, and how long has it been since Batman, etc etc etc).

So what you are saying is that the old school programers worked for a few hours and waited for the rest of the day to see if they have an error.

^_^ I would say we are more productive than that even WITH those "lazy and dumb" practices of ours.

Besides, most projects I cover tend to be linear in nature. In fact, the output of one script may negate the whole purpose of a second script or tool.

I would also suggest to you that most unproductive workers are workers who lack good communication with the clients. Many a script turned out to be unneeded or useless once the client gets what they asked for, as the client tends to be really saying "Figure out what I am thinking, stop asking me questions what do I pay you for!"

I would not be surprised if over 50% of all searches in bing are "Google.com".

1) There is about to be a ton of dirt cheap tablets. We are talking less than $50 cheap. It will be EVERYWHERE.

2) I think it was just to refute Steve Jobs who jabbed that Honeycomb was just "A phone os".

Why yes, it does sound logical.

"How do we make a good paper?"

"Take other people's papers, say we wrote it, and then say our papers are better than theirs."


BRILLIANT!

It may be easier to do now, but building classified information out of non has always been an issue.

Well I feel like a retard. It was only $10,000,000 dollars spread between 5 projects.

I also found out that Slashdot is proud of the fact that you can't edit or fix your comments. Nice to know.

Remember that time Google promised to hand out 10 million dollars, based on poorly conceptualized public participation, and then ran the participation part of it, got huge press for it, and then...

Oh that is right, they actually gave 50,000,000 dollars ($10 mil each for 5 projects).

So you are saying they will roll out Fiber to 5 times as many places as they promise?

I think Linux advancement in virtual machines has been advanced fairly recently.

The Android operating system is a linux based OS that runs java virtual machines, every application in a separate machine with their own database.

You have to manually allow interaction between programs... it is quite stable.

With more and more Android Tablets being scheduled for release next year (At lower and lower price points thanks to lower *nix hardware needs) I feel we will see SOMETHING from MS this year.

Mind you, they will likely have xp or a stripped version of win 7 since the hardware will have to be cut down to compete with the bare min specifications the opponents will have.

^_^ I envision tablet PC's filling a gap between laptops and phones/book readers. Dirt cheap, multiple purpose, used the way netbooks were meant to be used.

Not sure high end tablets will take off though... I think if the hardware is good laptops with reversible screens are a better idea.

I disagree with your premise, the one that implies that Justin Biber (or any singer) is important enough to shut down a website.

I feel the overly powerful media rights are WAY beyond reasonable, and raising ANYTHING to that level is absurd.
