  1. Re:Pentalobe... on The Case of Apple's Mystery Screw · · Score: 2

    Agreed. Anyone trying to open their iPhone is smart enough to find a solution past some goofy (or not so goofy) screw head. I think the premise of this entire issue may be incorrect. Seems pointless to me.

  2. Duh on When Developers Work Late, Should the Manager Stay? · · Score: 1

    Of course they should say late. If there is any question about that, then you have Bill Lumbergh as your manager and NO he shouldn't.

    Plenty of folks can give you evidence that a Creator exists...it's just not the kind you want.

    Not just a theory is good - I humbly accept my ignorance on that.

    I do still believe that it takes faith to believe in anything... Faith in the scientific method, faith in the conclusions thereof, faith in the competence of my mechanic....or faith in a belief system - whether it's spiritually based, scientific or the combination of the two.

    To the point of the OP in this thread - I believe science and God are compatible. We just haven't been able to prove there IS a God in a way that satisfies everyone. I figure it was designed that way - it's certainly what most of the Holy books say.

    It depends how far back in history you'd like to go...

    It was Aristotle who embraced the Geocentric Model and broke from his teacher's (Plato) beliefs that God was the creator of all things.

    My point was that no matter how much we THINK we know, there is still so much to learn. It takes faith to believe in anything, and most science regarding the Universe and creation is still THEORY.

    The smaller the mind the greater the conceit.

    To be more factually accurate:

    Religion = Rules & Rituals

    Faith= "I Believe"

    Science used to tell us the Earth was flat and the Sun revolved around us. Sure took a lot of faith to swallow that.

    Can't you tell he was smiling when he said that?

  8. a ha ha ha ha ha ha - talk about apple fanbois. on iPhone Users Angry Over AT&T Upgrade Policy · · Score: 1

    All the frickus frackus about a phone with some software upgrades and faster processor. Imagine if this broke out every time Apple bumped their laptop line....

    For me, I have an 8 month old G3 and will gladly enjoy the 3.0 OS upgrade FOR FREE. The next iPhone hardware revision is going to make the 3GS look like what it really is....a dot oh update.

    It all really depends on if people connect with his personality. I think he'll be out by the 2nd rounds.

    Adobe...one of the 10 worst tech places to work? Puleeze....have these folks ever been outside of silicon valley? Every workstation I saw had multiple displays and chairs of the high end variety.
