Slashdot Mirror
Apple Developer Profile Changing?
rocketjam writes "According to InternetNews.com, Apple Computer is seeing large numbers of UNIX, Java and Open Source developers moving to its Mac OS X platform. Apple Vice President of Worldwide Developer Relations Ron Okamoto mentions that, in the three years since the introduction of OS X, 'people who have experience in those areas are showing a great interest in our OS. We're seeing a lot of first timers. It's really impressive.' The company said it has recently surpassed the 300,000 member threshold of registered developers. Apparently, the increase in enterprise code writers has prompted Apple to add more sessions focusing on enterprise and IT to its upcoming Worldwide Developers Conference."
All the catholic developers (whho were also priests) are in jail or under investigation for buggering their altar boys.
That means that this developers are increasingly from teh ranks of the lay pedos.
Did anyone really think this wouldn't happen? Those who are surprised need to stay after school and study their 'get a clue' guides in more depth.
... there are now heterosexual Mac developers?
Did you ever wonder why Slashdot only supports 7-bit ASCII, i.e. no extended ASCII, Unicode or ISO-8859 characters?
Because Slashdot is a wholly American and Patriot website, that's why.
Think about it! Do you want Slashdot to become a forum for terrorists, where they can freely discuss plans for taking away our freedom and killing our brave soldiers through HORRIBLE ACTS OF TERRORISM in their own language and the heathen Arabic script? Unicode, a system that enables terrorists worldwide to plan terrorist actions and communicate through the Internet. Though most try to cover it up, it is no secret to most IT-savvy Americans that Unicode development is partly funded by Al-Qaeda and partly by the French, dictator-supporting government.
There is none of that anti-social trash here. Slashdot supports only AMERICAN, PATRIOTIC CHARACTERS. Eurotrash, look out, because you can't use your fucking umlauts and ~'s here. We saved your sorry asses in World War II -- the least you can do is show some fucking respect and use our alphabet. Slashdot does not support your anti-American characters. 7-bit ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) is commonly known as US-ASCII. This speaks for itself. The one and only choice for PATRIOTIC AMERICANS is US-ASCII, the STANDARD CODE for the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. I'm proud to be an American, and I'm PROUD be a member of this patriotic, American Slashdot community. I am not going to let freedom-hating terrorists plot evil plans on an American-owned, FREE SPEECH website.
Do not believe the terrorist propaganda lies.
Boycott Unicode -- it is a tool of terrorism.
USE ANYTHING OTHER THAN US-ASCII AND THE TERRORISTS HAVE ALREADY WON.

Whoa! This is *not* true. Developers are flocking to open source in general, not apple in particular. The futures of SUN, Apple and Microsoft depend on developers. It's in their best interest to spin the story their way. The arrogance and greed can get a little out of hand. The bending of reality (imagine the Steve Jobs reality distortion field combined with Bill Gates' budget) will happen.
Of course, Apple fans will gloat along with Apple marketing about any spin their way. Have fun, guys.

My wife was dying until I bought here a Powerbook.
I had no job until I learnd to use Mac OSX
My wife left me, my children were killed by toxic gas, I was on the verge of suicide, until my new G5 came in.
I could not figure out how to use _any_ other OS, until I used Mac OS X.
I was a virgin, until I used Mac OS X
Every other programming API is SOOOOO hard, Cocoa, is SOOOOOO easy
I use Mac, I don't know why the rest of the world does not use Mac?
MS Windows sucks
Linux is OK for a server but sucks as a desktop
Mac OS X rulz
I slept with Steve Jobs
If Tyranny and Oppression come to this land,
it will be in the guise of fighting a foreign enemy. -James Madison
