How much does it cost for the musician or painter to maintain their lifestyle? The energy cost of touring or exhibition? BTW, the quality is determined by the quality of the art, making most copyright pointless. Performances count, donations too. Painters are slightly fucked in this matter, but if they are actually good, some (not obligatorily stinkin' rich) collector would cover the difference. Lets not forget that not all art is for the sake of profit. Again, the same principle applies - the value of the work is determined by the customer/user/fan/whatever. And people usually work for sustaining a given lifestyle, which can universally represented as energy costs, even if those costs are for maintaining other people's lifestyles.
Waaaaaaaaait. You mean to tell me that drug trafficking is punishable by death, but first degree murder by any reasonably applicable definition isn't? *facepalm*
Excuse me, I'm just a teenaged enthusiast, but isn't recompilation all that is needed to get some application from the type of an office suite running on another CPU?
Do people really want meat? Or do they want it's taste and texture? They could probably skip most of the caloric content as well, not like they need it. I propose we go to purely synthetic foods from a 3D printer. The technology is pretty much there.
Maybe he just respects open web standards, as per defined by the W3C. Which do not include Silverlight/Flash/Java/ActiveX mostrosities. http://xmlvm.sf.net FTW!
I was implying that the app is not impressive from a CS viewpoint. And it is. Otherwise it is an excellent app, and I don't believe I have stated otherwise, and if I have, I apologize for my improper wording. And I am quite sure I did not say it could be easily replicate from a low-level view point. The implementation is hard, yes, but the concepts are not. I have a more academic/theoretical view in programming than most, IOW, I'm more into cool algorithms and ideas, than practicality.
Delicious library is pretty much that, a graphical query language front end for an OODB. Nothing to be impressed about, like you were implying by undermining Korin43's intellectual capabilities on a comparative scale with Will Shipley's. The guy (Will) may be a good interface designer, but he isn't that much of a special snowflake as a programmer.

Seconded on both instances. Keep up the good work.
Sounds good. Somebody get the plutonium. I'll start making plans.

How about one based on energy? That is the lowest common denominator.
IOW, LLVM FTW.
I understood the whole post, except for the first sentence. Why is it a bad idea?

One acronym:
WINE.
You talk as if breaking Windows drivers is a bad thing.
You don't know about the three way Intel/Microsoft/HP Alphcide, do you?

In Bulgaria the teenagers usually buy beer in 2L bottles, so there!

I think I have covered everything.
BTW, where did I mention growing meat, per se, because I have trouble finding it in my original post.

I just thought that attempts at humor don't deserve your attitude.
I wonder what it would be like if IBM had dismissed the concept of a PC entirely...
Dude, they already do the last bit. I even heard they have filtering ca!#%$#$%#^$&%#

Mod parent up +1000.
All because "No one got fired for buying IBM." Bleh. Damn suits. Ruined everything.
What do you have against rap music? Honest question? Or did I miss the sarcasm?

Sun is now a part of Oracle, IBM is in another sector entirely, Apple as well. That leaves linux and *BSD.
