Based on what I gather in my country the use of Perl is actually in decline, while Python's is growing. Then there's Ruby that's also popular (not sure if it proves to be stable as Python's growth though).
This does confirm, at least for me, why IronPython and IronRuby happened, but why IronPerl is nowhere in sight. Of course, YMMV in your country, but I think it is a global trend to be honest.
Reasonable? Apparently you already have made up your mind that it will be an '[...] inflamatory, hatefull [sic] movie', whereas you even state no one has seen it yet. So it is a bit hypocritical to say such a thing. And the fact that you are afraid that 'some crazy muslim [will] kill him' already points out a problem with said group when it comes to accepting critique.
I am Dutch too and despite not agreeing with everything this guy says, I have also been delving into religion and mythology long enough and experience enough in the Middle East personally to know he makes very valid points.
I was already wondering where the yearly Linus Torvalds talk would be about how Linux will break through to the desktop Real Soon Now(tm). This has been a pipe dream for how many years now?
Seriously, you cannot keep taking this seriously. Apple should how Unix can be made interesting to Joe Average to get a good uptake on the desktop, but neither Linux nor the BSDs will cut it for Joe and Jane Average, it's simple as that.
This guy quotes how Yahoo takes pride in running FreeBSD...
Running? Yahoo! is one of the largest infrastructure sponsors of the FreeBSD project and last time I checked even had people employed that are committers on the project. So yes, any take over of Yahoo! by Microsoft will no doubt put a huge dent into the FreeBSD Project's infrastructure that cannot easily be replaced in my opinion. So it's not just about running...
That's why they invented out-of-band management tools long, long ago. Given the nature of how the internet works, having a dial-up line to a management console (who then requires authentication) is much better for OOB management than using the Internet.
It is not a pretense. Right now in the Netherlands there's a lot of work underway to creating various repositories of scientic knowledge. This includes a lot of published papers from various universities from many years ago up to the recent years. Many of these old files are written in exotic file formats that can now only be played by deploying VMWare setups with the appropriate old OS and program in order to make such files available in these public repositories. As such it is very important to have open file formats. Despite what people say about PDF, the standard is out in the public with no NDAs or whatnot. This means conversion from/to PDF is a piece of cake and as such the preferred format, next to PostScript (hey, remember that one?). Can you say the same of old WordStar, Word, Word Perfect and whatnot file formats? Adobe is one of the few companies that has been documenting their stuff for many years now and have it out in the open.
And just how does Flash support BSD, Haiku and other BeOS derivatives and a bunch of other operating systems? No, Linux emulation still leaves a lot to be desired with Flash playback...

And go with the luxury of using oil of creating plastics and to create energy, not to mention silica for the LCD displays?
If you are trying to provide an argument from the environmentalist angle I'd suggest you'd look more at the manufacturing process of the Kindle and its energy use as well.
In Japan these things are printed all over the place. Posters in/at subways, papers at restaurants, magazines, et cetera. Then it makes a lot of sense of being able to use your mobile phone to snap the QR and access whatever site it references.
Finally someone is seeing the usefulness of this outside of Japan.
Man, I've been wanting to get more features from Japan and Korea. Finally now that Japan and Korea are adopting 3G GSM I don't have to rent a phone there and can just roam with my provider. But then you would still miss out on some features, this will finally bring other mobile phone makes in line.
Now to get a phone with a Japanese IME, English and support for my own language. I seriously wish that kind of software was more modular, might be a better use of the memory they put inside mobile phones these days.
I cannot for the life of me imagine why anyone would want to use qmail.
From a system administrator's point of view qmail does NOT keep adequate logging to track the flow of a message through X MTAs. With Postfix or Sendmail (and I reckon Exim too), I can see the entire flow in the logs. If you ever worked for a company such as an ISP or where someone complained about email gone missing, stuff like this is lifesaving.
From a programmer point of view DJB's software is just the antithesis of everything decent programming stands for, magic variables, awkward named variables, undsoweiter.
No thank you. I prefer to stick with Postfix (after many years of Sendmail).
Funny, that favicon of the linked site (http://astrange.ithinksw.net/ico/) is a direct use of the Japanese shoshinsha (aka wakaba) mark to denote a unexperienced driver: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wakaba_mark
I would not be surprised if this mark was trademarked or copyrighted in some way.
(And yes, this is a semi-hearted attempt to point out that it's easy to fall into such traps.)
Given the fact in the Netherlands and Belgium we have http://www.degrotegriepmeting.nl/ -- an effort by some medical institutions and related institutions to monitor the migratory patterns of the flu. This is the fourth year they're monitoring. The same kind of project happens in Portugal: http://www.gripenet.pt/ Moreover there's http://www.eiss.org/ -- the European Influenza Surveillance Scheme. So if you want to talk about current statistical data, it's right there and active.
Nothing like that even enters into their paper, so pardon me for finding it a bit one-sided approach.
In South Korea and Japan giving gifts to business acquaintances is very common. Here in the Netherlands and some other countries such things are commonly forbidden in employee contracts as they're considered bribes.
That's the problem of viewing events only from your local cultural perspective.
There's a large difference between having had to give your fingerprints because you were arrested or just cause you MIGHT do something.
That's the first step you forgot to include in your story above and already shows a violation of privacy since you never had to give them before if you acted as a normal person not doing anything wrong.
The immigration line already takes up more than half an hour on most of my visits. I guess I should be looking at an hour nowadays. Just insane. Not to mention retaking it every single freaking time.
Looks like the conservatist party wants Japan to sink back into xenophobia. I'm glad my Japanese girlfriend will come live with me.
Thus far the Japanese animeka's and mangaka's have never protested. I have also not seen any such hints in the Japanese media. It only served to further their fanbase and potential market. Whenever a series became licensed in the US most groups fansubbing that series stopped.
Of course there's more people interested world-wide and it can be difficult to find it locally. (Not to mention some English translations are horrendous and the fansubbers are doing a very good job.)

I am sure our Australian friends can make good use of this too in the near future...

Should -> showed, a minor typo that from the context of the sentence was quite obvious.
If you have nothing to contribute on the matter aside from just nitpicking grammar and typos, well, good way to spend your life. Keep at it!

Wow, I totally missed that one. Mea culpa.
I just wonder how much of it is really asked for by the artists themselves.
