Coward,
Do you buy life insurance? Car insurance? Health insurance? Why the hell would you do that if it's just going to be wasted money.
Oh, I get it. For certain eventualities that are so horrifying, you spend the money just in case.
Sir,
So, if you're retired, you will be long dead when this problem kills us all. So, it wasn't enough that your generation did a large part to destroy the planet--but now you're making sure to get in your last bits of damage by doing your part to frustrate and interfere with those trying to solve the problem. In another context--but appropriate here--is the word traitor. You are a traitor to your country. You shame all of Buffalo and New York with your conduct and attitude.
Dude, this is not about me. Is it really this important to you to fuck with me? You are ridiculous. Rather than address the science at all you just play nonsense games.
That you entertain yourself by making up these ridiculous comments shows me that you're again just a dabbler. Motivated people don't spend their time writing the long paragraphs of nonsense that you did. You're just ridiculous and not impressing a soul.
Have you done any intensive research into the subject of climate change? Your comments show you think the whole thing is a joke.
I have another idea. You and I make a deal that if you're wrong and we obviously are in trouble then I can come and put a bullet in the back of your head for fighting people like me who were trying to do something before it's too late. I think I like that idea even if you don't agree to it.
I watched the video carefully. Did you not note the "Wow" moment, when Nye takes off his bow tie, smokes a cigarette and drinks whiskey from the bottle?
That bit of theatricality was there to emphasize how horrible the problem mentioned at that point: "Methane coming out of the Arctic permafrost" was brought up. If you know the slightest thing about chemistry you would not say that Methane is nothing to worry about. The hubris you expose--in assuming that we can somehow come up with a technology-based worldwide solution to reverse this runaway warming--should make you embarrassed.
The video I linked to clearly shows that this problem is going to hit us much quicker than you think. Study the chemistry. Methane is much, much worse. Methane has already been documented as flooding up from the Artic. It's already too late--so it doesn't mean that anything you or I could do would change that.
You don't understand what I meant. Bloomberg Law, for example, provides an automated system that allows attorneys to follow through a given decision and find the actual final outcome of a given bit of legislation. Surely, an attorney can track down that applicable case law manually but it's a real pain the ass, one that is eliminated by the services I mentioned. Wise ass.
While it is nice to have all these legal decisions on line, it's really not that useful unless you have a system of linking those decisions and appeals and all the final outcomes of those processes in the form of CITATIONS. That's what people pay the big bucks for to Westlaw, Lexus/Nexus and of course that monstrocity coming from Washington Street in Manhattan, Bloomberg Law.
No, in lieu of a smoking gun you judge, analyze and infer from the information you have, the experience you have gained over a lifetime of asessing information and every bit of data that you have.

Yes, I saw the missing close dash [should have read: " libertarian--regulation hating--Koch brothers".]
Do you see that I used two hyphens--used to make a dash. That was not a hyphen. Nice try wiseass.
You have to do some actual legwork. Look at the company that did the study and then google their name and append the word "funding" and you will see CATO funded them.
Always consider the source. This "study" is totally biased and funded by the libertarian--regulation hating Koch Brothers and their CATO institute. This is false and not true.
Fair enough. With MEB 2014, I sent genuitec a few nastygrams over their decision to punt on SVN support. I'm there with you. But I did get it to work well and you can always use Tortoise--that's what my team uses. Do you do a commit every 15 minutes?
As for your troubles with WebSphere--well, that pig is something I have been able to jettison many times for all the alternatives so if you're still stuck with WebSphere you have your own set of problems.
Also, frankly, I think you are being sandbagged if people can claim that 25% of their time daily is waiting for MEB. I think, frankly, that has to be bullshit--they are exaggerating.
Also, if you have to leave MEB, then there is the fabulous free Spring Tool Suite which does lots of what MEB does. I understand that, technically,.NET can connect to any database vendor's driver. But you also know that when you're in a MS shop you end up--because of support and tools such a VS--end up being a 100% MS shop. It just happens. I doubt MSDN is going to give you oodles of pointers on how to configure.NET and solve esoteric problems on Postgres, MySQL or Oracle. It's not in their best interest to support the competition. So, bottom line, the decision to become an MS shop is a higher cost point and so fewer and fewer shops are choosing that. I look back on my decision in 1999 to become a Java fiend as the best decision I ever made and I stand by that assessment to this day. The last product I worked professionally on that came from Microsoft was VB6 and it constantly fucked up. Certainly, your mileage may vary but I have found my salary spiraling up and up without end because I know Java and the JEE ecosystem and its many open-sourced brethren so well.
Rick,
I just upgrade my team to MyEclipse 2015 and we have not had any problems. What problems did you see?
As for database connections and the price of any given database, I consider that orthogonal to this discussion, as you can in the Java world choose to use any DB you like, including SQL Server.
My experience--albeit limited--in the.NET space is that Microsoft tools have an affinity for Microsoft-built comrades. If I'm not mistaken, I believe Sharepoint requires SQL Server.

Simply fuck you, asshole. You are just playing at life.

The problem with Climate Change is your point of decision comes 10 years before you notice the effects. You're just another ostrich.
You're just uninformed: The great Arctic economic time bomb
Methane meltdown: The Arctic timebomb that could cost us $60 Trillion
Since you went with "Anonymous Coward", I will take it that you're too weak to even stand by your "opinion".

This delightful lander will arrive on Europa in 2028. How fascinating it will be for the human race to know--two years before we ourselves become extinct in 2030 ( that is, in 15 years ) because of Methane released from Arctic permafrost --what has been going on in Europa all these billions of years.

Just having the decisions is nothing, without it all being linked by a system of Citations.

Dude, by intention they have masked their funding.
It implies a prior bias.

No, dumbass, I said it was CATO because I did some research. You, apparently, are too lazy to do even that.
