Stallman Meets KDE Team for Tea
fishermonger writes "Trying to imoprove relations, the french KDE team invited RMS to tea at Linux Solutions 2003. From the piece: 'He asked whether KDE people were saying "Gnu/Linux" or just "Linux", and Open Source or Free Software. I told him some of us are using KDE/Gnu/Linux which pleased him as an answer.' Many pearls in the article."
You are a whiney little backstabbing JERK! You ABUSE your position as a slashdot editor for your own personal gain. How could you sell your friends at the CensorWare Project Out?
You will justify this to yourself by assuming I am the only person who thinks your a jerk. That is not true - Most slashdot readers wish you would shut up with your rants. How else could this account ('Michael's a Jerk') get excellant karma? The fact is we are sick of your moderation abuse.
Take This comment. You broke the rules and had more then question per comment. You then modded yourself up to make it into the question list.

Functional languages operate on functions as their unit of data. They pass, create, return, and operate on functions.

Procedural languges pass numbers, text, etc, instead of functions.
Functional programming feels like functional manipulation in mathematics, wheras procedural feels like a little machine scribbling on paper bits
Do a google search. Here's an example link.

The name isn't intuitive, but if your CS professor _really_ calls C a functional language, she or he is just plain wrong, and you might want to inform him or her about this.
Oh, and the great-grandparent post which brought this up here is wrong on about another 30 issues as well. Please mod it down.
