IMO Yahoo is going under as it is, Microsoft is just bailing them out.
I think its unfair to assume that everything Microsoft touches will become "uninnovative". Like Google they have talented programmers/engineers as well, and they should be given the benefit of the doubt before they are dismissed so quickly.
I think most people get the impression that terrorists (i.e. Al Qaeda) are just a bunch of nuts who want to blow up anything American. While it may be true in some cases, I think the majority of them are just as smart and educated as the average American. The technical knowledge and precision of building bombs, or coordinating attacks would require it, otherwise 9/11 would've never happened
Unless your a super-talented programmer, IMO management is the way to go. College CS grads are not as well taught as they should be, and with the increase in talent of overseas programmers, outsourcing will become more prevalent in the future.
First of all there are many types of games out there. I think if a game is educational, mind stimulating, and not too addictive, why not let them play whenever they are able to?
Not all games involve blowing peoples heads off, there are plenty of "educational" games that kids can use to expand their minds, and encourage their intellectual growth.
I'm surprised they haven't been shut down yet. Weren't they raided a while back? Either they're here to stay or a lot of people are going to get sued all at once
I've been told by one professor that comments are one of the most powerful tools, and by another that they are pretty much unnecessary.
IMO it would be best to have a general explanation at the top of what the code does, and the very few comments after that. as they say, good code comments itself

Which is why we can't have a hawk like McCain in office. It will just be 4 more years of another Bush
They conflict, but then again I can't remember any politician whose never given conflicting answers. I'm just glad he answered our questions.
I've been waiting for a 64 GB. It seems like its coming much sooner than I thought.

Really? So why don't you give us every one of your 50+ y.o. relatives contact information, and we'll see whether they're a "tool" or not.
Now if my mom falls victim to a phishing scam, I can rest assured now that her information is in the hands of even more phishers.
