    FB is a good example of that, it's legal fraud, it's done with all the regulations in place and it stole billions from people who bought into the IPO

    ...and the really tragic part is that when the next FB comes along, billions more will be stolen legally from the morons who invest in it

    intel is a much more limited application chipmaker, whereas arm is used everywhere. i think the experience that manufacturers of arm gain from their broad use gives them the edge. intel is in the same boat as microsoft... small incremental developments and holding on as long as the oems keep towing the line

    look at microcontrollers that use arm... manufacturers are cramming entire motherboards onto a tiny piece of silicon, with processing grunt that is fast becoming comparable to x86

    You have obviously never read Sun Tzu's "The Art of War", because "Anonymous" is actually waging the most perfectly civilized war possible... zero death toll.

    If anything you should be streaming abuse at the incompetent politicians of the world who send thousands of sons and fathers to their pointless deaths, and the greedy business leaders who pilfer billions of dollars of the hard earned living of the working middle class.

    You are right that it has nothing to do with GoDaddy... but GoDaddy is pathetic example of a model corporate citizen, and by targeting GoDaddy, Anonymous is sending a message to others like it that there is nowhere to hide.

    your code... AS POSTED in comment http://slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=3058625&cid=41052117 has a bug that you caused by not indenting properly, regardless of how well it runs... your code AS POSTED was buggy, because you were too lazy and smug to assume you could ever post code without bugs.... and you blame it on Slashdot.... HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! you were the one doing the indenting, not slashdot... and its not that slashdot didn't recognize your indents, you just left one out rotflmao!!!

    i think you know you fucked up.... you commented twice... you must be pissed :)

    you accuse me of causing a bug that you obviously couldn't see until i pointed it out...lol you thought i pasted it into an interpreter without any indents, without thinking about how i could possibly get an error on line 5 instead of line 2... typical arrogant noob mistake

    The profit motive provides a fine focus. You don't need to overthink it.

    what is there to overthink? as a capitalist company, the objective is profit, but profit also leaves the company, so the company isn't really about selling/producing/achieving anything... its just about making profit. a non-profit on the other hand gets to keep its "profit" (revenue less expenses) and use it to achieve things, and doesn't need to concern itself with shareholder satisfaction. even lockheed martin's CEO has conceded that wall street will never invest in any promising new technologies (in the context of venturestar)

    Physician, heal thyself. After all, believing in something doesn't make it so.

    i sensed a bit of a rhetoric smart ass tone there, and i'm not sure exactly what your point was, but in any case physicians don't always know how to heal everything, in fact most doctors and surgeons lose plenty of patients in their careers... a doctor doesn't need to believe they can heal... its just the objective... they merely use the best available knowledge, tools and drugs they have access to to give the patient the best chance, which is no guarantee by any means

    there are no doubt plenty of greedy wealthy people that would survive a nuclear winter and do well, but i think (and it is generalizing) that greedy people used to and dependent on a societal class structure would lack the skills and motivation for basic survival... for example, could you imagine britney spears killing and eating a snake? or maybe bill gates walking miles to find food? he may be able to rally people to work for him, but no easier than you or I, because he would have nothing more of value to barter with than you or I... all of his billions would be worth nothing without the current financial system that his wealth depends on

    and wtf is the greatest hits... is that supposed to be some kind of proof that you're better than me or something? quite sad then for you that it doesn't... it just demonstrates how desperate you are for credibility and how much you need to market whatever skills you think you have because your work doesn't speak for itself (i've seen it, it sucks, so its obvious why you need to market it however deluded you are in thinking I would ever actually use it)
