Apply little reading comprehension: It was Kyle, the FATHER, whose passport was denied. NOT the kid's.
OP:
"... they chose to deny a young child access to the flight, in essence denying the whole family."
FTA:
"Little Kye’s passport has a crease on the back cover, which Gosnell says came from him accidentally sitting on the passport.
His passport was questioned, but not denied. It was Kyle Gosnell’s that was the real problem. It has a small crease on the back cover, and is overall weathered and worn."
If we're going to infer things then let's infer that the dad's passport was old-school and didn't even have an RFID tag in it since it was described as "[having a] small crease on the back cover, and is overall weathered and worn.
The sea is being polluted with leaking packets. Rumor has it they're going to utilize the massive amount of internet porn to try a junk shot to stop it....
Is this a new Monty Python sketch? It sounds funny, where can I watch it?
Seriously though, South Carolina's public schools _are_ ranked last in the nation.
Forgive my ignorance, but what does the operating system version have to do with anything?
You're forgiven.
OS X 10.6 is a major shift away from the Carbon (C++) framework to Cocoa (Objective-C) framework. In previous versions OS X supported both frameworks, but with the migration to "complete" 64 bit (the default is still 32, but that's another story) the choice was made to stop supporting both frameworks and Carbon lost. Adobe made a major shift between CS3 and CS4 too by dropping support for PPC and focusing only on Intel + cocoa. That's why the OS version matters.
But then, you could have figured that out Googling it with Bing instead of just using the word Retarded.

I'm always amused when I read stories like this about how X or Y is the only possible future of development.
What works for one application or company doesn't necessarily work for the next. This isn't a one-size-fits-all industry. If it were every company would be using the same languages with the same methodologies.
Disclaimers: 1. I think Jeff Atwood is full of himself and he's a Visual Basic fanboi. 'Nuff said. 2. I work for a very large Japanese technology company.
First, I didn't grow up speaking C#, C++, Java, x86 Assembler, SmallTalk, etc. Neither did anyone else. They're computer languages.
I work with Japanese programmers on a daily basis and I can tell you that they don't think "English" when they're coding. They think C, C++, and Assembly. Heck, most of them can't speak English; they don't comment in English; and they don't use English tools. The only English they're exposed to on a regular basis is a handful of keywords, which could easily be changed to any other language and mean the same thing if the compiler understood them.
Atwood's assertion is just too ridiculous. Spoken like a true imbecile.

One of those is a fib.
Screw 'em. Let's just counterfeit our own money and get it all back.

They've had this technology at Global Dynamics for years.
Some of those Master's degrees are just teachers trying to keep their jobs under the "Highly Qualified" provision of the No Child Left Behind act.

After reading the comments, what has me worried most is the pathetic state of spelling and grammar.
Nothing is too big to fail now that we have failblog.org!

It's normal. We like it. Now shut up before you fuck it all up for the rest of us.

Just head for the airlock and let 'er rip. Maybe Hubble will find some "new plantetoid" and there will be more incentive to save it.
So you're saying there's a chance?
I like you, Mary Samsonite.
Isn't this a little like suing yourself for violating your own patent or copyright?
The feedback loop might open a long-lived black hole and swallow Earth.
Ok, I've read your comment and all of the replies and I just can't let this go uncorrected:
The Army doesn't have the planes. The Air Force has the planes. The Army has the tanks. Ground. Air. Big difference.
Glad we got that cleared up.
So...if electrons have free will then it stands to reason that the collective has free will because of that.

I'm occasionally a comma victim too. What's grammar got to do with it?
