i mean that things like java are always oversimplifying programming, and there are a lot of people just cant understand things that are so simple because they are used with drag'n'drop interface, and they call themselves programmers...
The vast majority of Java programmers do server-side programming where there is no drag'n'drop interface so wtf are you talking about? Or are you one of those people who pretends to be a hardcore coder and bleats on about the manliness of C when you can't write anything beyond a basic Hello World program?
Except you can't guarantee that your well-structured and styled HTML or doc files will look exactly the same between all possible systems. With PDF you can.
How can Oracle "kill" MySQL? Aren't we told over and over by GNU zealots that the GPL ensures that these projects will live on forever since the source code is always available? Isn't this why they rally against the BSD-like licenses?
I've taken similar herbals expecting the same or better results and not realized any.
I take a 90mg gelcap and the effect lasts for about 3 hours every time.
It's pretty predictable to be placebo.
This does nothing to dispute the obvious placebo effect. In fact it does nothing but reinforce it. If you start telling patients who you are giving placebo pills that they are getting something other than what they expect the placebo effect is ruined. This is why things are done in blind manner (double-blind is best because then the people dispensing the medication don't know which is which) in drug studies. The proper way to eliminate the placebo effect is for you to not know you aren't still taking ginko pills but are given something else.
More study is needed, and presenting a study which focuses exclusively on the elderly as saying "gingko doesn't work for anybody" is just as intellectually dishonest as "gingko seems to work for me, so it must be great for everybody!"
Yes, if I was doing what you say it would be dishonest, but this isn't the only study showing that the supposed benefits Ginko are hogwash. The only ones showing otherwise are funded by Ginko marketing firms.
Or perhaps roblarky could be more vague. Perhaps you could divine what he means by, "many".
By many he probably meant the standard definition as used by the English language. You apparently appear to be even more functionally illiterate than your first post let on.
You seem to imply that some preternaturally clever IT dept could make the right decision at every stage, and never be forced to do the dumb things the non-technical managers (business owners) always insist upon and never have to deal with ancient, legacy crap.
No, in fact that wasn't what I or anyone else was saying at all. He was clearly saying that depending on how your infrastructure is set up you may need only a few admins or you might need many.
I take it regularly throughout the day, every day, and it makes a huge difference for me in memory and calmness of thought. I get so worked up sometimes trying to multitask everything.. it really helps focus. I can definitely tell when I've taken it and when I haven't.
Yes, they have a term for this. It's called the placebo effect.

That's easy. Put it next to your penis. Everyone looks like Mandingo in comparison to you.

It seems you must be confusing XAML with VML.
What does XAML have to do with SVG and vector graphics? XAML is just an XML based mark-up language.
No, it's just that it's sort of hard to miss their name on the box when it's right smack in the middle of the front cover.
An international boycott of Google could both change its plans quickly and perhaps put it out of business.
And such a thing actually happens, how often?
Why should you know the publisher of a game you play?
Because their logo is on the front of the game?

You mean except for the fact that HP has used the East District of Texas to file patent suits?
How exactly was the US government going to search the records of INTERPOL anyway when it's headquartered in France?
INTERPOL isn't a police force, numbnuts.
Maybe, just maybe, they are interested by MySQL, would it be to kill it.
1) You can't kill GPL code.
2) If he was this worried about it he shouldn't have sold MySQL in the first place.
He's just butthurt because he can't make a closed-source fork of MySQL. Sorry, if I don't feel any sympathy at all for him and his billion dollars.

What about it?
Onlive could have knocked out one of the major reasons why many people stay with Windows.
Except they aren't Linux evangelists and as such don't give a shit about your fight against Microsoft?
Way to out yourself as an AC troll.
You just figured this out? He's been posting as an AC troll for ages.

I would hate to see this study send the wrong message to consumers
And by "wrong message" he means that they are being told that they are buying a placebo and paying tons of money for it.
