actually weeds can grow on lawns that may cause allergies in some people (and may cause other people to get high on some of these weeds;)
but the snow situation is really stupid. In Toronto, Canada we also have these laws that we have to clear snow within a number of hours after a snow fall, but what the hell are we paying the outrageous property taxes for if we end up having to dig the snow ourselves off pedestrian walks, which are not even our property?
f***ing complicated that you would need a 3D map to start with it.
- sorry to hear you have such weird misconceptions. As a language Java is quite straightforward. I use it for its main features and a rich library. It is just a language, whatever you call
super-complicated behemot
is an ecosystem of applications built in Java for development of larger applications, it is not the language itself.
Actually what this means is that Java is a very successful language used for so many projects that common sub-projects were factored out and became libraries/servers/frameworks.
My suggestion to those trying to understand Java is to learn core and only to bother themselves with frameworks/servers/libraries when they need them for a particular reason. Learn Java itself, but when presented with some problem like a build system or a web app framework or whatever, then research and find what suits your needs best (maybe nothing, in which case you can just use plain Java).
Don't confuse Java language / environment and various projects built in Java.
Learn to express yourself, you sounded like a lamer with this
I started with Eclipse (as I use it for LAMP development) and switched to Tomcat
- totally sounds like you switched 'from Eclipse' (an IDE) 'to Tomcat' (a web server/servlet container). Sounds like something a lamer would say who wants to pretend he knows what he is talking about but has no clue.
I agree with you for somewhat different reasons though.
I stopped being interested in certain types of tech, like overly complex XML configurations that are more difficult to debug than necessary, like overly complex EJB specifications etc.
Anything that can be done with an external XML configuration or with a 'remote object' that always ends up being executed locally only can be done simpler, faster, easier to debug with simpler java code that embeds SQL / IO / transaction handling directly.
Think of debugging, think of maintenance, think simpler.
Magomed was arrested by some police forces of Nazran (capital of republic Ingushetia, Russia), he was taken away by a number of people, there were multiple police cars who participated in arrest. Later Magomed was found shot in the temple. The arrest was made after Magomed got off of an airplane. The airplane had president of Ingushetia, Murat Ziazikov on it as well. There was a group of cars belonging to the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the republic in the airport, Magomed was arrested and put into one of the cars, half of the group has left and after this Magomed was killed. People were expecting him to get off the airplane and then killed him. Given the kind of people we are talking about, this was a premeditated murder.
A socialist country is simply one that has understood that there are economies of scales involved instead of each fighting separately for one's individual survival.
- yes, a 'country understood it' and now everyone is forced to 'understand it' via the taxation system and other perks, like national work days, when everyone, no matter what and who he/she is has to go on the streets, into the fields and dig for those precious taters (I was born and lived for a long time in the USSR, I know). I live in Canada now, it's somewhat better but still to socialistic for me, think I'll be moving some place more capitalistic, like Hong Kong.
I'm an average person. I believe it is OK to kill anyone, including babies and also that it doesn't matter whether lives of killer rapists are spared. Personal life protection is personal responsibility.
This entire article reads as if the new FF extension at least solves world hunger and maybe even provides world peace. It's a command line interface that pops up in some black dialog box, where you can type commands instead of pointing and clicking with a mouse. It's great, but users will have to learn those commands, won't they?
I was with Telus since mid-nineties til everyone was finally forced to introduce a way to switch carrier without losing the mobile phone number. I had to wait for that unfortunately before I could switch, but once it was here I ran from Telus as fast as I possibly could. I am with Rogers now, they suck too, but with Telus it was the figurative mobile hell, locked phones with no SIM cards, outrages charges, various catches (for example with Telus I had to call them before going to US to turn on the roaming, otherwise they would charge me about 10x the normal amount.) I HATE TELUS. I wish them all to rot in hell.
Except that relational databases are not just indexed objects copied across a large network of cheap PCs. What's good for Google may not be suitable for other databases, who actually care about ACID properties of transactions and not necessarily have the infrastructure to run highly parallel select queries.
You don't need all those other poles. Have you considered that it maybe that the alignment of cows south to north is what causes the earth to have magnetic pole on the first place? Ha? HA!?
Actually my understanding is that it is a less strict dietary requirements that allowed humans to survive while the neanderthals died off during an ice age. The idea is that humans would eat anything (omnivores) - greens, roots, fish, insects, meat, eggs, whatever and that the neanderthals were quite strict carnivores. When the source of food becomes scarce, those who are more diverse eaters will have an advantage.
Do not bring up agile in this situation. You want to push them into a paradigm that is structured towards responsibility, not something that allows development to wash their hands from anything and just blame business. In the situation described in this story the best way to go is by setting up a structure that forces a couple of things: documentation of requirements up front, system and design specs, phased iterative development, unit testing of course, QA department, responsible management. I know it sounds difficult, but you have to work towards it, nothing is easy.
Maybe they should have hosted the site on that monster gaming PC, cause it's down and I can't leave a meaningful comment without looking at what they've done, though I am sure it won't stop anyone else from trying.
Regardless of the subject of my comment, there is a saying:
There's no greater flattery than imitation.
- this can be rephrased like so: There's no greater flattery than copying. Really, it's the same thing. But I guess there is no greater flattery than a payment.
Actually you are not following the conversation thread.
I gave Nastia Liukin as an example of an athlete, who had plenty of medals before she came to the Olympics. You said something about her not coming to Olympics earlier, I said that she didn't, because she didn't cheat. Now you are talking about the Chinese 14 year old athlete again.
Please, get your data flow in order, so that the conversation will start making sense again.

Most of the development is done by the devs on their local windows machines, ant compiles everything nicely on any platform into a jar or war or ear or just classes, then you just copy the binaries to a Unix machine and it works. (of-course if you start using platform specific stuff, then you will have to do more work, but actually it's very rare for business apps. to use platform specific stuff, especially if it's all about databases and networks.)
The memory is managed by the JVM, which of-course does not prevent memory leaking in itself, but at least buffer overruns will not allow injected code execution, at this point anyway.
The libraries are part into the JRE and you can rely on them for being present.
There are many people familiar with the language.
Note that I didn't write anything bad about C++, which I also use and often link to Java. Why can't it be more about positives than about negatives? C++ has a place in the world.

Realize that Magomed was shot in the temple, that's a guaranteed way to kill someone. It was no accident, it was premeditated.

I am a vegetarian, milk/eggs are not my food. Killing is not the 'evil' that you believe it is, it's just happens.
