Yes, we definately need to start teaching Perl in CS classes. Specially as a example of scalable, self documenting language. Perl is sys admins tool and that's where it should stay.

Java Swing is an abomination ( BTW it sits on top of AWT which is Motif I belive )
Hopefully Xaw, Tk , Athena will die out soon ( they do deserve that) and we will be left with Qt ( my favourite), GTK and possibly Motif. That shouldn't be too bad... I wish Qt would become standard but well...
MSVC has hardly any forms to fill. It is C++ after all, you can code ( and ussually have to) yourself to death with it. The visual part comes from dialog editors which are indeed visual in the sense that one can drag and position controls using mouse. But that really saves time. Do you enjoy counting pixels and positions for you buttons ? Emacs is no better or worse than MS stuff . It is simply different ( one point, it usually requires lots of time to assemble all the modules one might want to have while MS stuff comes ready out of the box.) After all it matters not. In the end it is the code that counts.
What a bullshit? You seem to be implying that most game companies can't wait to return to good old days of DOS, or even better to times where one had to make 3 versions of game (C-64, Atari, ZX Spectrum.) DirectX was the best thing that happen to game industry in a long time. No more having to ship tons of sound, joystick drivers with every game. Think before you post.
KDE interested on making money ? Where the fuck did you get that from ? And even if that were true, what the fuck is wrong with that ? Do you make money or do you regulary beg ? Working and making money used to something to be proud of.. obviously no more...

You got that right !

Europe is going dooooown ...
Enjoy
How many apps with Visual C ?? ...)
How about 90 % of all Windows software ( MS Office, Photoshop etc, etc
Are you sure we are talking about the same thing here ?
And rightly so. Qt is very professional piece of work which was obviously noted by people at Borland. VEry good decision on their part indeed.

and it crashes a lot.
It is nice, however stability is not there yet.

Where is compiler on Solaris ?
Where the fuck is it ??
How come it costs $1000 ?
One fucking "real OS" woudn't you say ?
As far as so called "home computing" games are 90% of that ...
What a bullshit?

There is nothing to chuckle about. Goverment is intervening in private business. It hardly ever results in anything good.
They have been certainly more innovative than Linux community. ...
I am yet to see sinle innovation comming from Linux world
Short names like that are the best.

It works that way, you got more money, you get to drive better cars, have better house etc
Nothing outragous about it.
Hey, you are one hell of a strange dude ...
Seriously.
..whether they're in Canada, Russia, or Mars.

Interesting ordering. Is Russia closer to Canada in that scale or the other way ?
Marathon was OK but it was not the same as Doom ... Doom had this dark, very belivable athmosphere and gameplay was simply faster and better.
US or West did not "invade" eastern Europe and somehow goverment did not fall there very quickly.
You forgeting one importand problem. There was USSR supporting Cuba.
Yep, UN works realllly well ... in fact, without US UN would be completely powerless.
He is not talking about direct access to hardware in DOS sense. What he is asking for is thin, unified layer on top of hardware.
Makes sense to me.
And they do perform better on Win98 ( at least as compared to W2000)
I remember reading somewhere some stats about it...
That was FUNNY ...
