Have not used the software other then a few times for an assignment but if I already did not know that it is not a particularly nice piece of software then i would be surprised that it took them this long to do the obvious.
CS is too easy, but it is also way too time consuming. With my other classes I do not have 50+ (I have had 90+) hours to work on your insanely time consuming assignment. So yes make it harder, but also make it shorter and less time consuming so I have time to site back and think.
If you want us to produce big interesting programs then supply half the code.
Sure it is the same, but buying a used game is pretty much identical to pirating that game in that the developers get nothing. And why should some retailer make money selling used games and giving none of it back to the original developers? It is a legitimate concern.
And of course the chip will need to constantly update the government about your current location so that they can provide these location specific alerts.... And I am sure that there will not be an opt out for that.
... wasted effort, but the allocation of the money and the people involved. It is not all that hard to create very good, powerful and even big applications, but it becomes a hell of a lot harder if you throw tons money and people at it. And yes I have worked in university physiology and they have horrendous software as well, but there is simply no other alternatives and very few real programmers working in the field, so no one who could fill the hole knows about it.
I used this for a while for the netbook version of ubuntu.
Wow is it a piece of crap, at at least at the time completely unfinished and really unusable. I don't know why the Ubuntu staff have absolutely no idea how to setup a desktop for a notebook.
What I did was switch to the normal desktop version and use the normal panels (which are actually customizable) and simply set them to auto hide. Now I actully have 100% screen space and am able to correctly read web pages. (actually*, for some reason I cannot scroll my cursor anywhere)
It is a way of "encoding" words. While l33t is the most common example, 1337 is also common and every other word in the english language has at least a few variations in ll33t speak and they cannot all be included.
Which is exactly what I was going to say until I finished reading the summery. It goes on to say most people, and I agree most people do not get to see any science demonstrated, repeated, self corrected, or even delivered (as far as they know a gnome lives inside their tv). And most people will never even understand it.
Well like I said to another similar comment most if not all strip clubs to not hire dancers, the dancers pay to use the club. And it would be easy enough to hire a girl and tell her "do whatever you want up there, read them Shakespeare for all I care, but if you don't make the quota then your fired".
Well I may not be understanding this right but that would basically just be a issue of firmware. I know I unlocked more channels for my wireless router by installing FOSS firmware on it and if using unlicensed channels became legal all you would have to do is update firmware for existing devices.
Well I agree that OO cannot be used for all tasks, but to program procedurally (as well as OO) "well you MUST spend a fair amount of time planning before throwing down that first line of code".
I would say MOST of the reasons programmers learn any language is because their university/boss at one time told them to program in it (many times without any way you could of known they would of suddenly decided you should use some stupid or good language).
In my opinion over half of being OO is simply striving for understandable and reusable code (the rest being mostly unimportant specifies), personally I think you might have more OO-ish code then you think.
"Devs that rely on libraries..."
lol, you don't like relying on libraries but you still want reusable code, isn't that a contradiction? If you can use a library to do something and get out of coding it again then you are simply reusing someone else's code, and why not?

They need this feature for Facebook Apps.

High school is not equivalent to university.

And are somehow still able to get work?
Didn't Mark Zuckerberg the founder of Facebook do this?

Prime example:
new HD widescreen TV, it takes like 5 seconds to turn on and about a whole second to change channels.
It is so annoying to use.
Sure they might have to cut back a little or at least slow their growth, but they are still blackberry the classiest smart phone out their.

I have used far more then that with far less speed, it is easily possible, there are single torrents bigger then 250Gigs.

That is strange.
I wonder if it might fall under sexual harassment laws then?

From what I understand they do not. The strippers pay to use the dance area (with a static payment and/or % of tips).
How does this not fall under a discrimination law, how can you be able to hire based on if a applicant is willing to take off their cloths or not?
Anything to have drugs that do not smell like ass I guess.

I have been in freshmen programming courses and I know what you mean, I don't understand why they are their but their always seem to be a few.
But I am surprised about the word processor.
