I got this crazy new obelisk writer! It's the O+RW format, which blows away the O-RW format. The problem is that only half the humans can read my obelisk.
Take a moment to read the page: A large number of the problems come from the natural breakdown of rubbers and other odd products used in the creation of the devices. Sealed or not, if rubber softener starts to sweat out of a cable, it'll be an icky situation.
Not to be a dick (too much), but, Macs, Macs, Macs, Macs.
The Mac's curves are sexy. I like to look at the curves on the Macs. Curves are nice. The curve's radius was too small and the cars flew off the road. I broke my car's windshield.
And the real smoking gun is that in the new version of the kernel, all hard drives are now referred to as SCO/DASD. It's a real gaffe on IBM's part. How embarrassing.
I think it actually covers knowledge from a source. So I sign an NDA on knowledge I get from Source A. If I later get that information from Source B, I can re-release it, as I have not violated the agreement pertaining to the knowledge I received from Source A.
The janatorial division in their Siberian code munging plant might need to be revitalized. Why hire a property service when they can just sue SCO into the job!
I know. I'm not talking about legality, I'm talking about ethics. I think most would agree that paying someone less because he's liberal or short is an untenable position (provided he's able to do the job). That was my point.
I thought the kernel was writtien in Object Pascal with a builtin Atari emulator to support the legacy binary code sections for which the source has been lost.

Sorry sir/ma'am, you're gay/female/disabled/ugly/short/liberal/Jewish nad you really just flaunt it too much. I'm going to pay you half as much as I pay this guy over here who looks like me and has a similar last name.
Well, the author wrote the book. So the author is at fault for its failings. So it's quite sensible to blame the author for straw man arguments and unfounded assertions. You can't go blaming anyone else (unless you're a White House advisor, then it's likely Saddam Hussein's fault.)
Attacking the author would be more along the lines of "I found myself angry at the author for being such an ugly WASP."
And why should people pardon bad spelling? Typos are fair, bad spelling is evidence of lack of caring.
Hell... I miss the days when I'd buy a software package and get a manual. Hundreds of pages of explanations, a tutorial manual, a reference manual. Back when software was actually worth buying it.
And it wasn't very funny. Just funny enough for me to post it.
A lot of people work on a lot of different projects that don't look or act the same way. I know quite well. I used Linux as my only OS (not dual booting, no two machines, just one Linux box) for three years before realizing that I didn't want to do another user task on it ever again. I went and got myself a NeXT cube and wsa quite happy. Now I have a Mac (because of NeXT, not because of Apple) and am quite happy. I still use my cube every day. The Linux box holds up my desk.
But fairly small share of the targets of programming projects.
Seriously, just learn C very well. ObjC isn't that much removed from C. If you're intent on it, go learn Smalltalk -- its object model partially inspired ObjC
I don't agree with much of what the grandparent poster said, but I am sad to see the shelf go. It was a temporary "icon holder" portion of each Workspace window where you could put icons. The icon would sit there (no files would move) until you dragged it somewhere else. Then the icon would leave the shelf and the file would move to wherever the icon was dragged. So I could toss bunches of files up there and deal with them at my leisure. Additionally, I could store icons (documents, folders, etc.) up there for rapid access. Mac OS X does that fine with directories, but not apps and files. (Shelf)
That's one of the two things I miss most from NEXTSTEP. In the system preferences, there was an option to assign a custom key to any menu command in the entire OS. That way, if I like, say, cmd-W for 'close all' (that's a capital w, menu letters are case-representative in NS), I can assign it in one place to the menus of all of the applications. (Screenshot)
The other feature I miss is the ability to tear menus off and have them be floating palettes. (Screenshot)
The Amiga was perfect and amazing in 1947. Shut up you evil heathen. You don't understand the future when you see it. I'm going to go and buy some crazy computer called an "Amiga" because it has a checkerboard sphere glued to the front. We will win forever!
And Ken Burns's Effect would be pertaining to Ken Burns. The Ken Burns Effect is the effect of Ken Burns on something. Which is pretty much an apt way to describe the Ken Burns Effect. When Ken Burns is near photographs that go into a movie, this is what happens to them. The Ken Burns Effect.

Towe of Babel, la la la.
As long as it's not a picture of the gun's inventor. That is one ugly dude.

Otherwise, good post

It's IBM -- there's a committee for deciding on lunch.

I was about to bitch at you snidely, then I remembered that you're right. Very sad.

Yes, I did read that.

Oh, and I'm not quite sure what your point is.
I'd rather make a typo than screw up an apostraphe. ("An s! Quick, get out the apostrophes!")

It's how apps with only one window (non document-centric) are supposed to work. Not enough of them do, though, unfortunately.

The Unix/X way of approaching interfaces? You mean the "spin the big wheel and see which way to use this time," right?
Did you ever think that the hundreds of pushups might be responsible for the body fat decrease? Or a tapeworm.
