Rather OT, but this has been bugging me: Why doesn't somebody make a ActionScript + whatever else goes into a SWF to JS+SVG+W3C recommended replacements, instead of trying to copy their VM implementation? That should be easier than trying to clone a shifty ABI, with the added benefit of maintaining something that from functional perspective is more or less completely embedded in any modern browser.
I'm in to the same sort of thing (OK, I'm too lazy to be so much in to code), and after reading these comments, am damn happy I barely remember my dreams.
The guy is a prodigy, and your saying he needs professional help? Granted, I've got ADHD, but I can do most physics problems without picking up a pen, due to the related to my condition very much superior associative memory (IOW, I have a superior pattern matching co-processor than most people). But any behavioral therapy results in me acting as though I'm in PMS, and greatly diminished mental efficiency. The only "professional help" that could possibly help either of us in our everyday lives can only come from a drug dealer, seen as everybody else is to much into "nanny state" shit, and you can not reasonably attain mind altering substances required for day to day functions.
Nicotine is an acetylholine receptor agonist, putting it in a class of its own. Though it is a mild psycho-edative at higher concentrations, but that isn't the same as a CNS depressant.
Having an overactive dopamine system gives you the learning capacity, the thirst for knowledge and obsessive personalities required to do and love your job.
Of course, it also makes you a sucker for anything that has to do with a high.

What's wrong with anarchy, specifically the capitalistic flavor, which just protects human rights and the free market, and leaves the rest to be sorted out by the aforementioned market. I thought that was pretty much the embodiment of/. political thinking. *shrug*
How about a subcritical breeder reactor for Pu-239 with an external neutron source, say, a Francwort-Hirsh fusor? Sorry for the terrible spelling, I haven't had enough coffee.

Chalk one up for the GP, I'm thinking the same thing.

Moral is something immaterial imposed by culture and/or religion, ethics is a science.

I'd run a dd if=/dev/zero from a liveCD, then format and reinstall, just to see what happens.
Am I the only one who was more baffled by the malformed XHTML, than by the funny phrase?

and it'll make a lot more sense.
High five!

Took the words out of my fingers.

Now if only my father understood that...
You'd think caffeine is worse than meth, if you listen to him.
Not to mention lack of any proof reading skills...

Balance it with lots o' caffeine. That way your caffeine high will cover up sugar lows, and vice-versa. HTH
Agreed.
Yeah, it's less than nothing...
No, they run Mac OS classic. Your wiki-fu is weak, grass-hopper.
No, for this they killed the Alpha from DEC.
Anything with a decent browser can do GTalk... so...

A CPU analogy for cars, on slashdot.
Didn't think I'd see the day.
The rest is entirely correct, I couldn't have put it better myself.
BTW, you just got yourself a friend.
Yeah, those really are spectacular, but that's nothing active suspension can't fix.
Now, somebody go tell 'em.
