  1. That is what is not allowed.. on KDE 1.1 is out · · Score: 1

    ..by the license. It says X Windows system only. Why a distinction? I understand having to pay for commercial development.
    You see, they effectively killed the Harmony project, which would have allowed for cross platform development, if under GPL and if ported. Now nobody will ever write a good toolkit, that can be made cross-platform. Bastards.

  3. No, people are screwed by their management.. on KDE 1.1 is out · · Score: 1

    Are you leaving on other planet? People have to had there work done, and the platform they use for that is not usually there choice. I have to use NT often; I really fucked our computer support to allow to get a Linux box on network. Be real and get you head out of your butt. gees.

    ..I write a free software using QT. SOmething really useful. How can people, who use Windows benefit from it? QT is not free for Windows - so Troll is screwing people out of free software; while GTK is going to be ported and free to use. Such a shame gtk-- is such peace of crap.

    Gaussian - Shmaussian... That's this kind of a-la scientific numerology drivel that leads to all errors.
    There is no Gaussian law for the rise and fall of technology. One can not judge what will be the future technology jsut by looking on charts as it is described in the article.

  13. narrow mindedness on Space Station's LAN · · Score: 1

    Politically motivated or not, these guys know their stuff and I don't think they would ever put the safety or comfort of the astronauts in jeopardy because of stupid politically-based OS decisions.

    You will be surprised, how many design and especially mission concept decision were dictated for political reasons. Of course we make sure that it does work. But usually there are other, and usually better, ways of doing things. NASA leadership is very politically motivated. They want cost reduction - grab off the shelf component - who cares that a specialized solution can be more reliable, and actually cheaper to maintain. They still to not count salaries of support pesonnel into the cost of the project - at least in our project (I am outside NASA, but do work on a project for them). I is really frustrating the way burocracy there work. This is the reason I refused to consider employment there, though the people are good indeed. Though the salaries are not high at all. Well, in comparison.

  14. narrow mindedness on Space Station's LAN · · Score: 1

    That lowly simple worker has ten times the brains you do and probably makes ten times what you do. NASA doesn't hire stupid or shortsighted people.

    Nope. Salaries there suck. I can go there (have an offer), or I can find a job in industry in BA. Guess what I will do. Will not even think about that stupid goverment job.

    NASA engineers are not stupid.

    Indeed, but they are very conservative, and suffer a LOT from politically motivated managers. Goverment science is an horror show. Seen enough of it. Sheesh.

    Hope one my friend is not reading this. He is finishing his Ph.D. on quantum dots. Doing, like, top of the line stuff.
    I had to install Win 95 for him since he is too relaxed to be able to do it himself.
