I'm a student at Worcester Polytechnic Institute and I've seen some pretty bad examples of coding here.
The game development club made myst style game involving the campus. When the game first launched it took up about 25 megs of ram, but within about 5 or so minutes it was using over 200 megs and rising.
Now it wouldn't have been much of a black eye if game development club wasn't giving out copies of during orientation to try to attact new members.
I don't know what everybody else out there is experiencing when trying to run Adventure in flash.
Most modern browsers should run it just fine, I personally use Opera and it works just fine (I just had to enable popups for a second) I also know mozilla can handle flash as well as opera.
As a side note whenever browsing with these "alternative" browsers make sure to set it to identify as what it really is. I am sure if web sites more visiters using other browsers, statements like "IE 5 required" will start to disappear.
I am still in high school but work as a technication for a local computer store. They send me on mostly house calls or give me any job involving unix, mac or networking. For the most part I only work when I feel like. My boss is never rude to me and understands I know more than him. It sure as hell beats what my friends do. They all work at a grocery store or something like that. I bet all you out there wish you had my job when you were my age, so I just want to rub it in all your faces.
Is microsoft serious. What would happen if this banning of free source code idea was expanded to other areas such as cooking? Would recipes become illegal?

Could we at least double check info before posting it.
I would love one, but I would probably drool on it until it fried.
Mmmm...sparc.

Has anything like this ever happened before. A manufacturer of high performance cars (or any car for that matter) starts making computers.
For me, this really brings down the quality of porches. Anybody else feel that way?

Guess what
/. got beat by Ars Technica. (in more ways than one)
You guys here at
We ought to get the people here behind some distributed computing project. I bet we could beat any other team.
You Have got to be kidding me. Nobody on your list is even close to being in the same League As The Ox. The Only one you could compare him is Harrison
That has to be the best comment I've ever read. Dont let your work define you. Define yourself.
