with the existing language infrastructure and just extend it?
That's exactly what Scala does. It "extends" Java in a sense and still runs on the JVM. Swarm is essentially a creative new way of using a mature platform, assuming it works at some point.
I was curious about that too, so I'm looking at the code. The Java implementation seems to be importing a non-java library, jgmplib. Anyone know what is going on here?
1) Blizzard probably doesn't want masses of users to be put at a disadvantage because they can't afford to buy the best add-ons.
2) Blizzard probably doesn't want to deal with people suing them because these little business take hits every time there's an engine change that severely breaks an add-on or makes it irrelevant.
You wouldn't want to use the Kindle for technical documentation anyway. It's designed around documents where you start at the beginning and go page by page until the end.
And the 2000 US Presidential election was in doubt because of a usability glitch in the Florida paper ballots.
I wish we would get to the core issue. Who cares if it's paper or electronic, we need a WELL DESIGNED voting solution.
Are you applying for these jobs? It seems like the only think holding you back is anxiety. I guarantee that with a CS degree and a few years experience in something relevant, you're going to get hits.
Quit worrying and get out there.
I've played both the beta and head start for a little bit. Here are my thoughts
-I've completed all my quests without ever once having to go through the pain of getting a group together. The public quests are GREAT. Just jump right in and start fighting. They also have a concept of open groups, where you enter a new area and it tells you about any player groups you can immediately join.
-I have yet to worry about grinding for mats. To craft a talisman, I don't need to mine ore for an hour, then buy mats on the AH. Instead stuff comes naturally while doing the quests.
-It actually feels like a world.... at war. There is destruction everywhere, fighting everywhere. Invading enemy cities is encourged. WoW got to the point where it felt like a couple of Humans would get bored and call on some Orcs for a game of flag football.
-The races aren't wimped down. The bad guys really feel like bad guys. The orcs aren't struggling to find their place in the world, they just want to kill things.
-The races and classes are all very different. This game can't cop out and make both major sides mirror images of each other.
-It feels like a game, not a job.
Generally the armed forces are never known for technical prowess. (They are more consumers than creators) The role of creation comes from contractors. Why shouldn't we rely on contractors to perform these functions when contractors already obtain top-secret clearances? Contractors compete for projects which ensures a level of cost limitation (lets face it, Cost+ rips off the tax payer), continual advancement (beyond what the enemy throws at us).
Why should the armed forces be doing this in-house? They are using contractors. Most of these groups are a combination of active duty and contractors. In fact, contractors are usually needed to provide long term stability since the active duty personnel will constantly be cycling out.
Wha?
There's some decent discussion in this thread, then you come along, call everyone dumb, then toss some stupidly basic definitions at us.
I feel like you just walked into a senior level college math class and started to explain high school algebra to everyone.

Crunch it the wrong way and you get an internal short and a runaway reaction, which produces a lot of gas
Reminds me of that chalupa I had at Taco Bell last week.

I found that taking the disk platter out and using it as a coaster helps too.

The placebo effect doesn't cure disease.
Homeopathy was made up only around 200 years ago, so I'm not sure that its had much of an impact on human evolution.
Data insurance? So, like, the payout gives you money to buy a new copy of your data if it is lost?
I keep shoving hair into the fan intake of my laptop and now it's not running properly. What am I doing wrong?

the team realized they were just studying a hair sample from Joe Paterno.
