For spreadsheets with complicated logic and massive amounts of data, creating a relational database would be beneficial and then allow spreadsheets to load the data from the database. Then you get the best of both. Logic and code/formulas in the database, with presentation and manipulation available in the spreadsheet.
I think the problem some people have is that if men and women are different both outside and inside, then they must not be equal. I'm not sure why they think it has to be like this: differences in any way mean not equal in every way. A red circle and a red square are both equal in being red, and could both have the same area or same circumference. Somehow any difference could be a weakness and a weakness means "I'm weak" and some people just can't handle being weak.
Right, because there is no way that "human beings think".
On the other hand, I've been non-thinking that humans don't spend enough time thinking through their "arguments".
Just a non-thought, do with as you will or won't.
ps. if the sarcasm is lost...
The real question is do we "know" that the interest level is still the same? I think things have changed and the interest isn't what it used to be. More research is needed to discern the actual reasons. Spending money trying to promote women to join the CS world is pointless if we don't know "why" they aren't joining to begin with.
I agree with your point. Most code I write has some amount of future proofing as there are usually signs that the client will want things added or changed in the future. I do limit these future capabilities to only those that can be implemented in a reasonable amount of time compared to ignoring them entirely. Anytime one codes with no thought on future changes, there will end up being a serious need to restructure or even just rewrite lots of code.
I don't know if I'd blame lazy developers on Microsoft, more on the actual lazy developers themselves. Because the problem is still lazy developers. If you are going to be lazy, then only code to the standard and leave out the prefixed extensions.
The current standard is Xhtml 1.1 and CSS 2.1 + several Level 3 sections. Really, you can code in Html5 and use a lot of the main CSS 3 and it will work across most current browsers without resorting to prefixed extensions.
That code is wrong, here is the corrected version:
div {
border-radius: 5px;
}
Coding to non-standard extensions is bad for everyone. If the border-radius doesn't work when coded to the standard, then it isn't going to work. So either don't use it or know that some people's web experience will be without round borders.
Not sure where you get that the kernel is identical. It is not like they compiled exactly the same source for each, there are differences. For one the Windows Phone 8 has to run Windows Phone 7 apps, so there are some differences there. Windows RT has some differences from Windows 8, they are built for different processors. There are enough core components that and app built for any one of them can be compiled to work with the others, but it doesn't just happen if the application is more complicated and uses components outside the core set.
But, if you mix in a random alpha numeric with random English words, you get both, and the added entropy of location of random alpha numeric characters.
"borrow 9dy sendar&sought"
"bing s0me googl3 and yelp"
We just need to be able to use long passwords and extended character sets.
This is only partially true in certain areas of the United States. In the less populated regions of the west and midwest, slavery has had little to do with economy or crime. "Racism" is just prejudice, which is rampant pretty much everywhere in the world.
though one point would be that four words is more than 8 characters and if the hacker does not know if the user used all dictionary words or threw in some random gibberish, then it would appear to the hacker as closer to 102^28 .
I love using Visual Studio for development. It is worth every penny, so I run Win7 Pro on all my machines (or dual boot Windows Dev Preview). I'll be happier when the WinXP users finally upgrade their machines (or their companies finally upgrade).

There are more users of WinRT than there are users of Mac OS X.

Though with Perl, you can naturally obfuscate your code, as there are hundreds of ways of doing things.

All the time, what's up with that! :)
Windows 8 blue screen has :( in the new blue screen.

Apple can't write Windows software. Have you used Apple software for Windows (i.e. Safari, QuickTime, iTunes, etc.)? It is buggy and slow.
As a developer, I say don't use the prefix on production sites. Then you don't have to worry about when to change it, as you don't have to change it.
The current standard is Xhtml 1.1 and CSS 2.1 + several Level 3 sections. Really, you can code in Html5 and use a lot of the main CSS 3 and it will work across most current browsers without resorting to prefixed extensions.
Exactly! Mod this way up.

Windows Phone 8 will run all Windows Phone 7 apps (well, 7.1 and 7.5, though I doubt there any relevant 7.0 apps still around).

It is more likely "it makes an awful aquarium" or "my 5 word phrase"
Also, the separator for each word (or lack of separator adds another (102+-)^(3 or 4))
You skipped Wyoming, which everyone does, but our average is closer to 150 firearms each.

Too bad about the VB6 code. I'm glad I'm working in C# now and they keep more up-to-date than the last place I worked.
