I uploaded 34 pictures of my two kids to Picassaweb yesterday. As soon as the pictures were uploaded, google extracted all the faces from those pictures and arranged them into three groups. One is my son's faces, one is my daughter's, the third one is two faces of my daughter which is in a slightly different angle and a little fuzzy. It asked what their names were, and scared the hell out of me. I didn't answer the questions.
A web page is a data structure made of HTML, and then apply some CSS (or a lot), and later you might want to add some unobtrusive javascript.
That is a very complicated process.
At work, I tell the graphics designer don't ever worry about the technical stuff, just use photoshop or whatever he likes to create the pages he desires. The advantages of this is he would focus on design not coding. When the design is out, I would let him create the basic HTML with a few guidelines, such as tables are for tabular data, use ul for menus, and always have alt attributes for images. The HTML will be modified by developers and CSS applied. I will never expect a graphic designer to understand HTML and especially CSS. If lots of developers can't have a grasp on CSS, it is harsh to expect designers to understand it.
Most HTML + CSS pages produced by designers whether by hand or by WYSIWYG editor are shit. They got rewritten anyway. The process of 1. HTML, 2. CSS, 3. Javascript really don't need too much WYSIWYG. The only value I can see in WYSIWYG editors is when we are on a tight schedule, maybe the designer could make some page quickly for us. Unfortunately, the lack of knowledge in CSS would probably make the result look really bad.
If you are going to use ASP.NET, please do yourself a favor, use ASP.NET MVC. Creating a site through WebForm is like making a monster that will crash it's creator eventually.
You haven't mentioned Java nor.Net, so I am not sure if ORM will fit your needs. Thanks to Hibernate and EJB3, I am losing my SQL skills and no regret at all. You still need to understand the workings of RDBM, but you can concentrate on OO stuff when programming.
I got opera when they had the free registration number give-away, and fell in love with it instantly. For my browsing habits, I didn't see any weird pages. Why I love opera? Try it's keyboard shortcuts, super!
I can't believe everyone here is just arguing who's right who's wrong. Millions of people died, and some of you think it's really Ok. So the side that murdered less is good, what's the logic in that?
Let's not forget every person who died, but please please forgive what have been done, and keep reminding ourselves how stupid we can be!
After heard so many good things on Debian, I was ready to try it, but I stopped at the installation. I was looking for Taiwan on the country/region selection screen. However, it turned out to be "Taiwan, a province of China". Uh... How many people really think Taiwan is part of China here? And as a Taiwanese, I definitely do not think so. Why bother? you might ask. China has been very oppressive toward Taiwan, and people here are just growing tired of it. Crap like this, "a province of China" pops up every where in every internal convention. After a few google searchs I found out it used to to just Taiwan but reported as a bug, because it did not match the ISO standard. I wonder who the hell did this, and the maintainer just insisted on not changing it back to just Taiwan. I am not making any political statement here. I think an open source software would be more political neutural. "province of china" is just purely offensive to me, it's like saying you have to agree on this stance before you use Debian. All I'll agree is GPL and their social contract, not some other agenda. I feel sorry that I do not have the time and energy to contribute to Debain, but this problem cannot be fixed just by contribution alone, since it was a bug fixed and they will just stick to the ISO standard (kissing China's ass). FYI, I later tried Slackware and loved it. No political bullshit too.

Calm down, I think it's talking about the TV show, not the physics stuff.
Yes, excellent movie. Given a scale from 1 to 100, I would give it a 42.
Are you sure that only eyes were opening?

The underlying question is why, for the love of all that is good in this world, would you eat at a McDonald's in France?
To have real FRENCH fries of course.

Find some guy from some soda company to be the CEO, he would be out of trouble in no time.

Hello class, today we will take a look at this great technology forum. Oh, let's click on this informative link.
