Do I want to be a postdoc paid $35,000 or $40,000 at age 35, with extreme uncertainty working in somebody else's lab, and maybe getting credit for my work and maybe not getting full credit?
If you took most people aside from the pitch forks and torches and honestly asked them this question, I think you'd be very surprised. A lot of people don't want to have their own lab or manage income in the 6 digit range. We always whine about the measly pay, but, guess what... we have the *time*, the *computers*, and the *freedom* to do so. Take that and smoke it in your pipe.
By attempting to "set the record straight" only for cases where doing so would promote liberal causes, they become yet another liberal advocacy group, not a credible media fact checker, even if every point they make is true.
Exactly. And talking about how great they are at media analysis is a bit of a joke. They're extremely opinionated; they tell you what the media should do; and, they don't always present the whole side of the story.
If you want plain analysis of data, you look at something like Rasmussen Reports and you just look at the numbers at face value. You'll see, day to day: oh, Kerry's ahead... oh, now Bush is ahead, etc. These are solid facts without the political mumbo jumbo.
The moment you asked a one-sided question "Is there a conservative bias in media?" is the moment that demarcates fair.org as unfair. I've read through many articles on fair and I cannot see what editorial methodologies they use to maintain a balanced critic of the media.
We all know that both far left and far right lambast the media for being too conservative or too liberal, respectively. I think fair.org is just another website that ensures that the left is represented, not that the right is represented nor--more importantly--that even the truth is represented. Remember, statistics and numbers are easily molded to be used in any ideological stand.
One problem is that their communication medium does not allow fairness to occur. Having an email hole doesn't count for feedback. Maybe fair, to be fair, should consider a blog format with comments, etc. For example, I've enjoyed a balanced viewing of some blogs like Fahrenheit Fact to keep things in perspective. They allow comments and they're very willing to make corrections to their fact items.
For now, I'll link fair.org under "Liberal Propaganda Hijacking Words They Are Not".

I lost a ton of emails in v2.63 of spamassassin. I use a chain of fetchmail -> postfix -> kmail get -> filter through spamc -> kmail inbox/spam.
I had to turn off spamc processing because I lost a bunch of email. Maybe it was a bad interaction with kmail, but it was disheartening nontheless. Taking out the spamc filter, I did not run into the problem again.
Since most SPAM harvesters just take it as-is, I have taken to adding that in with the username for emails i cannot setup a catchall address: username+thatsite@mydomain.com.
However, my question is how do you deal with mailing lists and cross-posting to members-only mailing lists? Maybe you should only use "list" for the 'thatsite'...
Of course, the director misses the point that by doing a video documentary, which of course is a selective medium, the director is doing the same "tactics" that Moore does.
Well, what if that *is* the point. Then, he's hit it right on.

Again, it's not something absolutely essential to my work, but I'd be more productive and happier if I could do it on Linux in addition to Windows. Sorry about the misunderstanding.
It's okay. But, I think you know where I am coming from. Even if you had it exactly like VS.NET, I am willing to bet there is something else holding you back. Maybe nVidia drivers or wireless drivers or some new MS Funky 5.0 that you have to run Windows for. But, the fact of the matter is that people work differently, their interests differ and if VS.NET rocks for you, then great, I'm happy for you. But the age old bygone of "If ______ works under Linux, then I'll move over" is getting a bit stale.
What you suggested is functionally close, but it still involves a full recompile and reload of the debugger.
I doubt you really know what's going on under the hood of either DDD or VS.NET. If you have a huge program, you usually have separate source files which are compiled into object code which is then conglomerated into a library of code: DLL on windows,.so on Linux. When you change code while debugging, the current file is recompiled, reinserted and the execution point is re-engaged from the beginning of the program to where you left off. Now, VS.NET may have optimizations and better integration to do this, but you can obtain similar behavior with DDD and be similarly productive.
Try this in VS.NET: while editing a line of your program, quickly throw an exit() statement maybe 20 lines above. Then when you reset your execution point, what does the program do? Does it exit? How do you debug when effects of previous logic statements change prior to the execution point? Reasonably, VS.net would re-execute these statements to get a picture of how the program would be even if ran from the beginning.
Let me know how this works, inquiring minds want to know...
So, I guess the theory behind functional languages live on in one of the hottest technologies around today.
Also, the last version of Prolog was in -97. Pity, you can really do some magic in that language.
I think you will see vistages of functional languages implemented in a lot of derivative languages even if they are inherently declarative. For example, aspects of anonymous functions, curried functions, etc. can be utilized in languages generally thought to be non-functional. Case in point, Python.
Additionally, I wouldn't classify Prolog as really a functional programming language like Erlang, ML, etc. Although Erlang was developed utilizing Prolog, you cannot make bona fide function declarations in Prolog. Prolog really deserves its own classification: a logic programming language.
I could move a lot of my development over to my Linux boxes if I could get that working.
I doubt you really could, because this is just a classic FUD statement. "Yeah! We got this! And if you had it! We'd be there!":-/
Anyway, what you're looking for isn't going to be beautiful, but it works. Here's how it works:
1. You have your code that your debugging open in gvim or vi.
2. You have your debugged process open in ddd.
3. You see something broke and you want to edit again and come back to the same spot for debugging.
a. Set breakpoint.
b. Stop debugging.
c. Edit code in Vi.
d. Compile.
e. Run in DDD.
f. DDD will say "I've detected the symbols have changed, should I reload?", at this point click Yes.
g. Program stops at breakpoint and you keep going from there.
Yeah, you're messing with two programs, but, you know, that's how I like it. Some people like to have IM, Media Players, and a Web browser integrated into one app. But I like them separate.
Again, if VS works for you, I'm happy. It doesn't for me.
