Maybe in the future, a Quantum Computer running Windows x.x will be able to harness its power to show the contents of a folder in less than the 30 seconds it takes now.
1.They have little long term vision, but are instead obsessed with making the goals for the next reporting period.
2. The "executives" are a series of "wonder boys" that come in, discard everything that wasn't their doing, and re-invent the wheel with their brand on it. They usually are there long enough to screw things up and then get picked up by another company.
3. Middle management has a siege mentality, never knowing when one of these "wonder boy" executives is going to come in and fire them, replacing them with their buddies.
4. The actual workers spend a lot of time wondering what the hell is going on and who is in charge this week.
They ought to just cut the crap and simply give the kids a degree after daddy dumps the pickup load of cash at the registrar's office. Saves time and effort on everyone's part and doesn't compromise the educational value at all.
I told the new IT director that we needed a change management system.
What I thought it meant was a piece of software that would:
1. Back up the old website 2. Take the new website from a Staging folder on the Dev machine and move it to production, after hours, 3. Do some basic functionality testing (does the website even load,etc.) 4. Provide an one button restore function of the shit hit the fan the next morning.
What he thought it meant:
1) Fill out a piece of paper advising everyone that the application was going to change and who they could blame if it didn't work...two weeks ahead of time.
I do Joke. In fact, it was partially to point out that Assange and his friends could make up just about anything and post it as a leak of some kind.
Without a doubt, those who are inclined to support wikileaks would fall for the fictitious leak completely, especially if it dovetailed neatly with their world view.
And yet taxes were still far lower at the end of his term than at the beginning.
What you left out is that those increases were part of agreements with the Democrats in Congress to reduce spending. Congress promised to reduce spending in return for marginally higher taxes.
The ability to filer based on moderation is the real problem. Really, anyone who can read should be able scan. I have my filter set to -1 because many good points end up being buried there and have no problem scanning through the discussion.
In fact, setting the filter higher leads to disjointed posts referring to posts you can't see without a lot of clicking on Parent and following it up the chain.
Most nice have scrolling wheels, learn to use them.
The so-called "conservatives" pretty much exemplify the worst aspects of human nature
Yeah, who needs self reliance, responsibility, charitable works, etc. I say free drug needles for all! Condoms for 3rd graders! Go ahead and quit your job and be an artist, Nancy has your back.

Undoubtedly some Harvard grad who's wasting time on Slashdot while at work.

If ever a car bomb was an appropriate response to anything, this is it.

Yep, If you sell something called an "Unlimited" account, then don't bitch when people use it in an Unlimited manner.
Someone just leaked the entire plot on Wikileaks.
If only we could tell the future we could make such better decisions. Is that what you are saying?
"sense".
We have a republican form of government that in essence boils down to a democracy
I have a blue car, which in essence boils down to a red car.
That's how much your statement makes.
Good thing we are not a Democracy then eh? You and your friends deciding which skate park to go to is a democracy,
When we got into Afghanistan, everyone was for it. Well, maybe not code-pinkos, but the vast majority of Americas supported it.
Many military simulators have X-Plane code at their heart, so why not racing?
I'll take that.
So are you making an argument for even lower taxes then?
And yet taxes were still far lower at the end of his term than at the beginning.

Guess who reneged on their promise?
"Entire Websites are often a cesspool of illiterate, bigoted, biased crap."
Fixed.
NP.

Sorry, the condoms are handed out in First Grade.
Vladimir? Is that you? Hey! where ya been? How ya doing?
Glad to see ya. The world hasn't had a good Pogrom in decades and we have plenty of folks in the U.S. who are ready to go for it.

You must be talking about the Democratic President who championed tax cuts.
