As after version 1.0 was released it was actually started to be used as a real OS for non-kernel developers. Other apps may be different. I have been using the text editor jed for nearly 15 years as well and it is still not version 1.0.
However Linux has a more sane Version Number system, so it is fair to use 1.0 for its birth date. Other systems not so much.
The problem with high school science is that it is learning what has already been learned. You should try some experiments that you yourself and the rest of the world doesn't know what the outcome will be. So you have them run the experiments document them and try to get it published.
I think it is the case of the most zealot Religious people don't actually follow what their religion says and just abuse the details in select paragraphs to be a bit worried about having to face God about their hypocrisy.
OpenOffice isn't a big deal. Java on the other hand is also MySQL (yes they have there own Database systems). If IBM wanted an office suit they would have bought Word Perfect.
Back in 2003 I had to travel for work about 120 miles every day (60 miles too and back). I wished I had a flying car every day. I could leave from a small airport in my City land at a small air port at my destination. Drive to the office. I could probably go from from point to point in about 1/2 the time. if I had a flying car (about 1/2 hour travel). I would say something like this would be perfect.
If you have too good of an AI. Give it a standard deviation of probability, And adjust it for for the skill level. So for the most part it will shoot near the target but sometimes it will miss and other times it will just be way off.
Capitalism at its best, is actually quite a good thing. As it does a good job of properly supplying the populations with goods and services that are demanded and good and services that are no longer in demands will go away.
One of the problems with the Communist System is that it is difficult to get the right goods at the right time. Say you needed cooking oil today. However when you go to the store all there was was baking soda. So what you did was buy baking soda that day in figuring the next day they will have cooking oil but no backing soda.
As well if products are difficult to get at their price are higher to prevent people who don't need it from buying it.
Yes it has its problem but for the most part it does actually work for the most part and it does self regulate itself.
That said there are some products and services and business actions that do not work for the model and needs oversight and rules to keep things running smoothly.
Software Engineering is actually more of a Business Study then a Technical Study. That said it is pritty darn useful. While a lot of people know how to program very few are able to make an application.
Well lets go back in time to get a perspective. We are talking about Average Home use not corporate high end use.
1992 9600bps 3 megs an hour 1994 14.4k became the norm. 6 Megs and hour. 1996 28.8k became the norm. 10 megs an hour (after 14.4k we rarely ever got full speed connection over the modem) 1998 56.6k became the norm. 13/14 megs and hour that much more flaky. 2000 Cable Modem/DSL started to enter the market. In my area peak speed was about 500kbs so about 225 Megs an hour 2002 1mbs 2004 2mbs 2006 4mbs 2008 8mbs 2009 we are at about 10mbs/15mbs (with paying extra for 15mbs)
So roughly we double in speed every 2 years. So I doubt we will see 500mbs for home use until... 2010 16mbs 2012 32mbs 2014 64mbs 2018 128mbs 2020 256mbs 2022 512mbs
2022 Wow. All my predictions are seeming to fall in 2022 lately, Real Time Ray Tracing, Dukenukem forever, Now home use at 500mbs. 2022 will be a cool year.
We need good consumer classes in school. I remember back in school (6th grade) we had 1 class (like 1 45 minute block) dedicated to seeing how advertisers make us interested in the product. That was one of the most impressionable classes I have ever took. Ever sense then when I look at these adds I can go wow they said the product name like 20 times in one minutes. Or listen to the scary music in the background when they show the competitor.
Americas success of capitalization is dependent on smart consumers. Brainwashed consumers are not good for capitalization and could cause it to fail.
I said a small Dev Team not a small company. There is a difference, these guys are actually hard to find in small companies because small companies you need to put on different hats to succeed. But big companies have small teams this is where the "Josh" gets into play. A job focused enough that he doesn't shoot himself in the foot immediately, but the teams that do different things and are small which makes him the big fish for his team often enables his bad behavior.
Software development is 40% technical and 60% people. Even though he my get twice as much technical done his bad people skills are affecting his usefulness, and still needs at least 20% people skills to be useful, however to balance him you will need to hire someone who is like 10% technical and 90% people skills just to support him. So you are in essence paying twice as much to get slightly less then twice output. You are better off with 2 people who can do 40/60 balance. As you will get twice the output without the risk.
Yes. As if I didn't have his code When there was a problem I would have to rewrite from scratch every time something broke, or create a workaround for it. But for the most part as the users of the software has the process down it makes it easier to remake such software. Yes it will take a bit longer then a couple of weeks but it is doable.
Having his code even if it is an utter mess and obfuscated to a massive amount will save time as I have something to work off of. But I have never came to a situation where when a "Josh" leaves I couldn't keep the company/software running, then improve it over time.
Having Asperger's isn't a good excuse to do a poor job or to be anti-social, or unprofessional. Yes you may have hard time following the right non-verbal queues. But things such as dressing appropriately for work, using the bathroom in the right spots, and a lot of the quarks that happen are due to bad behavior that people even with serious Asperger's can work one and minimize and be at a professional level. I don't take the idea, that I have a disability so you need to deal with my Crap mentality, it is basically reinforcing that they can behave badly, without having them work on improving themselves.

We all know that Linux was made in 1979.
[yes this is a joke post]
No I think I would stay at the version 1 release.

No I am an MBA I come up with the big picture it is up to others to get the details.
So what we get out of it, is that Linux is a big jerk, who cares about details.

So did the train A make it to Kingston at 11:35 am and intersected Train B from Albany at 4:30pm
Apple We did it first and got a lot of attention doing it.
Microsoft copies it and makes it their own.
Linux jumps in and goes ME TOO!!!! ME TOO!!!!
First Time it is cool
Second time it is kinda background noise
By the third time it gets pathetic, and over used.

Dag Nabit, When counting evens I always skip 6. 2,4,8, not 2,4,6,8. It must be all that binary in college.

It isn't obscure it was on PBS and the BBC... Oh never-mind.
My Calculations have it more toward 2022-2038.
Using Mores Law on Ray Tracing Speed for a complex images and a 30 FPS minimum.
I would have said that 4-6 years ago. But now that Intel retook the thrown for x86 chips, I doubt we will see to many people looking for alternatives.

How about Java and Flash and other ways to develop for the platform. I am sorry I never caught on to Objective C
