Time is just our way of measuring our journey through the universe. It's a complete fabrication on our part, and is not an innate natural phenomena. The only time is what those machines on our wall, on our desktops, and in our machines tell us it is. If they're talking about motion, form, change, etc... to call it 'time' is selling the whole natural phenomena of change short.
I don't know about OpenWatcom, but I still have the Symantec C++ compiler installed which is based on the Watcom compiler. It is extremely fast, easy, and is a joy to use.
He's right, but people that say that games are art are the same people that say programming is like speaking a language. It's a way for those that do games or other programming types to think what they are doing is a step above others in the IT/Programming ladder. Numerous things that people do incorporate art, but I wouldn't call those things art in and of themselves.
I'd think that Americans wouldn't be able to get a group if they had to type a sentance or two in english without errors./American//Sucks at written english language///Not as bad as most
"It's like a car, I just wanna drive it, not know how to work on it." has been said to me more than once regarding computer use by clients/customers. I've learned to say "OK", and "Here is your bill." Just fine by me. They'll 'drive' their computer over a cliff, and call me to get it fixed again. More for me. Ka-Ching!
I'd much prefer local script reading monkeys to foreign script reading monkeys. No economy benefits from money being transfered into another economy without at least an equal gain. The money is best paid locally so it is spent locally.
They'r doing it because the Indian (for example) guys are cheaper, not because they are smarter. I never went to college or uni, as you put it. I WAS the guy programming in assembler for fun. I certainly don't have anything against someone with talent, talent is always acqnowledged and is always a pleasure. The thing I do have against is farming tech support, or importing H1b visa people to replace knowledgeable tech support with script reading monkeys. Replacing a team of talented programmers that know the code with programming mills that focus on how much time they can peg on a project instead of doing quality code.
It's time that companies that are willing to support foreign workers over domestic workers, but still expect the domestic profit lions share are outed to the public as nothing more than economic traitors.
Band together and create your own companies. Don't outsource, don't hire H1b visa workers, keep it . Kick the ass of the companies that outsource, and use their outsourcing/H1b hires as your best asset. You know they are lower quality workers, and you must make sure the public realizes this also.
"Don't think the problem is in other countries. It is in yours. You've became so fucked-up that YOU see a monkey=>black association when you see POTA and MLK in the same page. It says much more about YOUR racism than it says about mine."
The problem is the racism if the people that perceive this to be a racist issue.
"My worry isn't the computer or the algorithm. Computers fuck up, algorithms can't predict everything. My worry is the bunch of geeks sitting around here trying to rationalize satisfactory explanations for the fuck up, and patting themselves on the back when they think they've done it."
That's the thing. There is no "fuck up". It's just a damn computer.
Shit happens, get over it. The computer some how thought the grouping was appropriate. I seriously doubt there's someone in a smoky back room that thought it would be a good thing to group MLK with Planet of the Apes. Take the tin-foil hat off, go outside where you can see the daystar, and have a drink.
He pays the school, the school does not pay or own him in any way. I don't see where he has to apologize or do any sort of punishement when he is the consumer of the schools product. They should be kissing his ass.

OH, and thanks for the links. I thought 'it' was dead. This is exciting.
That clears that up.

Yes, let's just throw another piece of junk into orbit. What's one more hurtling piece of death?
Art isn't.

Oh hell. Now there's going to be a footrace to the patent office.
Just because your paranoid doesn't mean that someone isn't out to get you.

The IT industry sucks. IT jockeys will have to make do with living on Ramen noodles, and driving beaters.
Oh, and for those talking about doing it for the 'love of IT' or some such shit. Love doesn't pay the bills unless your a whore.
cheaper kicks the ass of skilled any day of the week.

Actually, it's more like 'how things should be done' vs. 'how things are really done'. I stated how it's really done.
Redundant? Hey, in case you are reading deficient, the three post about Duke showed up at almost the exact same time. GMTA
It should come with a copy of Duke Nukem: Forever.
Prior art has nothing to do with what is publicly known. The search for prior art is done in the patent archives.
Of course it's illegal to trade your own copyright material. You should be using the services of one of the mighty music or video cabals.
