I guess that would depend on who recommended him and what his courtroom record is.
The fact that this hypothetical lawyer is succeeding despite visible tats and body piercings tells me that he is good enough to be able to determine how he lives his life, and that he is most likely the lawyer you want on your side of the room.
I like your example about bookmarks so much that I will comment here.
Spotlight/normal heirarchy combo are really nice in _exactly_ how Google/bookmarks are...
Example 1 - I get to a "client" (It's really a "friend" (me)). Their hard drive is a mess. However, I can start with a normal folder, and start moving files based on Spotlight searches. Since there is more metadata that Spotlight uses, it is much better to organize using it than a old-style find.
Example 2 - Now that I have all of my files in a basic grouping, I can use smart folders and spotlight searches to "move" files out of their locations for temporary purposes. I have a smart folder for files modified today. That way I can get back to where I was without a search or digging. I have a smart folder dealing with certain types of files that I open regularly, and are guaranteed to be named in a way that is easily recognizable.
Organization does not go away with Spotlight, rather spotlight augments and improves the file structure in a way that is not possible in the file structure alone. Doing this reduces file structure when the structure itself was created as a workaround for lesser searches.
You have to realize that MS is no longer able to dictate _all_ of the PC specs.
- I couldn't imagine that Apple will build a box that requires Hypervisor to run. - I couldn't imagine IBM will build servers that require Hypervisor to run. - I couldn't imagine HP will build machines that require Hypervisor to run.
These three companies have a vested interest in _not_ allowing Microsoft the kind of power that you are suggesting.
I take 18,720 hits of air per day. Without it, I notice _severe_ withdrawl within seconds, and realize that I will die within minutes without another hit.
The droids being around Anakin is natural, actually. Remeber, they are first Leia's droids in ANH. Now, why would Leia ever need a personal astromech droid with an attitude? Remember, in RotS (Star Wars:Rots, I like it:), C3PO's memory gets erased, but R2D2's does not.
I would imagine that he was given to Leia not because she needed an astromech, but rather that Obi-Wan and Yoda wanted someone who knew exactly what her father was capable of watching her. C3PO was given to her because someone needed to talk for artoo.
I know the owners of every coffee shop I frequent. They are all happy that I am there, most will call me by name, and realize that I would not even frequent a coffee shop at all if it was not for the WiFi, considering I don't drink coffee.
As for the cell phone (which I assume is part of why you call me rude) I always move to an area where my conversations will not interfere with the conversations of others, usually a hallway or outside.
I'm a full time, home-based consultant. My home is 30 miles away from the vast majority of my market. Coffee shops are the way I check my email, the way I IM people. They, and cell phones, allow me to run my business.
Each part of town has a coffee shop I frequent. All are locally owned, all have _free_ WiFi.
With that said, I _always_ buy something, when I'm in a coffee shop. Usually it is a fruit flavored soda water, as I don't drink coffee.
Spelling aside, can't you imagine that he loved his work so much that he saw the homework as a challenge as well as homework? I would imagine that even if he did know that the equations were "unsolvable", he would have still played with them and eventually solved them. Possibly not as fast as he did, but he would have solved them eventually.
Push MS out of the Mac market? Umm, you do realize that the Mac Division of Microsoft is profitable? As in, it would look really, really badly to some federal judges if they were to pull out of the market.
I realize that. My point still stands that when I read the article, I read it as "Penny Arcade Sues 'University' For Spamming" the first time, then I had to read the summary to figure out who PA actually was, thus making the headline completely useless as a summarizing tool.
You do realize that some people are cursed with writing problems. I normally get "their" and "there" wright but sometimes I slip, I still after 27 years need to be conscious on what I am riting.
Which was why I intentionally didn't pass judgement on whether my metaphor was just or unjust. Merely, I personally feel that it is a better metaphor than the one that was mentioned before.
Also, everything in my metaphor is technically legal, however has the distinct possibility (and probability) of becoming something illegal (i.e. Lynching).
Please, Please, Please, when a comic is over a year (or even a month) old, put it on a page with several other comics.
I find it way to annoying to hit the freaking Next button every 20 seconds (10 for reading, 10 for pageload) for 4 years worth of comics, no matter how good your comic appears to be.
I gave up on Angst after about a month's worth because the pageload takes too long between short hits of comic. Now, do the numbers, one month is 12 views of your Steel Wool manufacturer. Had the page been a full month's of comics, you would have gotten the same income out of the first year as you did from me as I gave up.
Then you get 3 more years of archive pageviews (36). And an addict to add a pageview every MWF.
Instead, you got someone that decides that it isn't worth the hassle to get to know the characters, so will most likely not be a regular reader of your wares.

No, and as this is slashdot, you misspelled s-o-l-i-t-a-r-y.

I'd better get treatment fast.

Nah, the hack would be making it so I can turn all my neighbors' christmas lights on and off online.
Especially the one with the 24/7 outdoor christmas music device.
That's James Spader, he plays a really funny character on "Boston Legal" now.
I realize that. My point still stands that when I read the article, I read it as "Penny Arcade Sues 'University' For Spamming" the first time, then I had to read the summary to figure out who PA actually was, thus making the headline completely useless as a summarizing tool.
What does this have to do with Penny Arcade?
Actually, to fix your grammar...

Isn't this more like having the entire neighborhood join the neighborhood watch, then post everyone around the perimiter of a pedophile's property?

Why not ship the CDs to the people, and allow them to put it on their machines? This way the tampering is by me, and will only screw up my vote.
