Ha! But no, they probably spend twice that amount at work every day, frolicking in meeting rooms with other managers, drinking coffee, and such. Also someone has to make sure the T.P.S. reports get the correct cover sheets and are written on time.
You're not taking into account all the middle management and project management such an endeavor requires. That alone easily accounts for 90% of said budget. After all if you don't hire at least 3 managers per developer, how can you make sure they're doing their work properly all 16 hours of the work day?
Oh sure it's definitely becoming, if it isn't already, the defacto way of keeping cattle, but you don't have to go back many years before it was the other way around; keeping as much cattle on as little an area as is effectively possible, throwing food at them to get them big and 'healthy'.
That's one of the real big reasons a lot of acreage has turned to wasteland over the years, and this new/old way of herding the animals around over a much larger area is only just now starting to return some balance to some of these desert and near-desert areas. But there's still a great deal of land all over the world where farmers and ranchers went bust doing it the wrong way, because all the vegetation just up and disappeared.
.. How long until someone gets sufficiently annoyed with all these bullshit shenanigans, and starts killing off corrupt politicians, leaving behind on their deceased corpses notes with fancy political catchphrases such as "If you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to fear" or "It's all for the children". Wouldn't that be ironic?
So can someone explain to me how you can be convicted of both conspiring to do wire fraud AND for doing it? Doesn't the latter cancel out the former, or do you also get convicted of conspiracy to attempt a murder, attempted murder AND murder when you kill someone?
If you aren't man enough, this goes for women too, to realize and admit to making a stupid fucking mistake, if in fact you made a stupid fucking mistake, and someone points out to your face that you made a stupid fucking mistake, then you have no business being in a position to make stupid fucking mistakes in the first place.
I thought geeks were above "making enemies" over stupid shit like that, but it would appear we've been well and thoroughly infiltrated by the soccer moms/dads. Fuck, we might as well just shut the whole thing down. It's what's best for the children anyway.
Unless of course you're sitting on a 100+ strong team of developers capable of forking the project off in the direction you want it to go, and then maintaining it for you. But then it's not really node.js anymore, is it?
When node.js goes to shit and your enterprise class software worth millions or even billions of dollars is ruined, who you gonna call? Nobody, that's who.
That's why node.js isn't for enterprise use.
Engineer information into the genome of the most resilient of creatures on the planet, so even if we all die out and our DVDs corrode and disappear, something of us survives.
No, it was "banned" in 1937 because it was in direct competition with the oil, timber and chemical industries. Hemp didn't have the same kind of lobbying powers the others did.
When IT doesn't buy software, IT doesn't get to make sure it is bought correctly.
And it's usually not IT that buys "business critical" applications like these. It's accountants and receptionists and such types that get hoodwinked, and then proceed to supersede any IT decision by going directly to the CFO, who uses his political pull to force IT to install the application and then fuhgeddaboudit.
China doesn't exactly have a reputation for being safe, so I'm sure they'll jump through all the hoops and punch holes where there are no hoops to jump through.
I'd like it if everything you invent is patentable insofar as you produce a product containing or consisting of your invention, and the moment you stop doing so the patent becomes null and void.
Slashdot Mirror
Soon we will need some sort of artificial construct; a place where the brains can mingle so they dont collectively commit suicide, yah?
No offense to transpeople, but why is this on Slashdot? I don't give a fuck if he wants to be a man or a woman in jail.
They should block Slashdot, and all the sysadmins in the UK will rebel and take down the filter in their anger.

One gets some or no money for their code. Others get money to ignore errors and add features. That about sums it up?

If he did it in America, someone would sue him for going against Gods will.
At least they're not keeping the buyoffs a secret anymore. With all their promises of transparency and all, this is a lovely sign.

Hmm... Running Man on the moon. By Scott, you're on to something here.
What a horrible and angry attitude toward the unknown. I'm glad I don't share your gene pool.

If it's a US national park, won't it just end up full of murderers and junkies, preventing any civilized folk from going there at night?

There are currently too many people playing your new game, and the servers can't handle it, so... yeah...
Isn't this just leading up the same chaos that is any Ubisoft game launch?
