most languages are "good" for some things, according to some people. Had I mentioned these were "best" I'd have added "for me". Now, I really had the biggest fun coding Qt GUIs in C++ because of both Qt and C++ features. But I'm sure other languages could be prefered by other such as you... As well as I am sure thatr it'd be impossible to create a language that everybody would definitely prefer to any other to accomplish any programing task.
They are not describing C++ but instead QT. Operators are a typical C++ feature. But I was also describing Qt. Maybe it was too difficult for you to get both of my (abbreviated, I admit) points about this language.
That claim isn't so much wrong as... baffling. not sure I understood this, was it irony ?
anyway I argument : object programming is good but I have to say I was more impressed by using C++ operators when coding GUI apps using the Qt library than I've been trying Java/Swing... Might be the event-slot paradigm which is mroe optimal but even so, operators are what make me think c++ is really cool.
nobody really knows how to design a good language s/good/universal/ PHP is good for web programming Perl is good for system scripting Java is good for object manipulation C++ is good for GUI ADA is good for secure stuff Regexp is good for substitutions ARM/Assembly is excellent for embedded apps (depending on your platform)...
I have considered what we lose - a lump of rock and dust. A worthwhile trade. Therefore I say we go for it. how much of Mars have you truely explored ? how much of it do you ignore ?
BTW - if you were truly living in harmony with the environment, you would be naked in the forest hunting food, not using a computer and posting on/.

To itself. It was philosophy and science which kickstarted the rest of evolution. If you just do things because they are feasible instead of considering what you might lose and thus resist the tentation of not being a responsible co-existing creature in an harmoinious universe, then you earn karma (real one).
The ecological problems on earth are the REASON humanity should colonize The pollution can still be stopped. Thinking otherwise makes you a PART of the problem.
Why was Galileo Galilei seen as an heretic when he told that the Sun was not rotating among us ? I am biaised against my species because it simply put my own survival in danger by polluting my ecosystem, by declaring wart onto my allies or onto passive foes. No, I think Mankind has to prove it desserves more than Earth.
It's a virgin soil and it has to remain so : we have to much to learn about it instead of polluting it : When Mankind can prove it can live in equilibrium oni Earth, then it can spread elsewhere.
When using Reason 3, some virtual synths have the option to produce an enhanced sound. What is curious is that if you are using a pre-Altivec proc (G3), it'll burn more CPU time while the same enhancement will be totally and natively supported by Altivec-enabled units : a 400MHz G4 Powerbook is enhancing these sytnhs more efficiently than an 800MHz G3. I guess this was like the simultaneous operations that the ARM assembly language supports (e.g. both storing and rotating values in an operation)...
as long as it is seen as a way to get people criticism instead of just as theft. of course, the public needs to be educated about paying what they think desserves it.
Yes, it was also because it was Job's returning present. BeOS was already up and running on Mac and it could have offered more than the existing MacOS at this time. Anyway, I am glad OSX is like it is now.
Apple, or Be ? In 1996 BeOS stood as the most promising environment around. There was also RiscOS, BTW. which could have gone very far (it's actually present in loads of set top boxen).
It's a beginning : Mankind also had a glacial period and it finally sent a probe to Titan so evolution is asymptotically positive and exponentially accelerating. I gave Hurd a try 3 years ago. It was an x86 laptop and as nothing was recognized, not even my video board, I gave up. But it was cool to code in Perl and to dynamically try drivers under this exciting environment.
The Hurd Project was started in 1983 (it's an instrumental featuring the speech where Stallman explained the origin of the GNU project). Now, 22 years later, a definitve breakthrough has been performed. I see this as an excitement:
They kept working on it THAT long despite slandering and scepticism such as yours
The rest of the software library (glib, bash, etc.) is already ready
With Linux, Hurd and BSD amongst others, we are slowly getting back to the same variety we had 20 years ago, when we had to exchange basic listings and to port these onto various platforms (Sinclair, Commodore, Amstrad, Sharp...)
Now, we will see it emerge and, why not, get sufficient audience to become unavoidable. In 20 years from now, it'll be like it's an opportunity as weel as any other so it's not missed, it just took time to emerge, like my favourite whisky.

Was it used to sonorize the thereminator ?

ninety nine zeroes would be 0.....0,
which would be RIGHT(Googol, 99)
so the leading "10" would be missing.

s/good/universal/
PHP is good for web programming
Perl is good for system scripting
Java is good for object manipulation
C++ is good for GUI
ADA is good for secure stuff
Regexp is good for substitutions
ARM/Assembly is excellent for embedded apps (depending on your platform)...
It's more secure by design : A Windows user is "root" most of the time while a decent Linux user is not.

I guess they lost too many customers to Ricardo as most people I know associate "selling" with ricardo and "scamming" with eBay.
Henry Kloss died in 2002 so it's not a problem for him anymore, especially since he used the bnrand name Tivoli Audio for his fabulous radio-sets.
Not has much as in Indonesia where they're about to imprison couples who kiss in public...

There's more people using these nowadays than there were people having a computer at home 22 years ago so there are more home hackers NOW.

Janitor ? Knowledge ? ;-)
It's almost kinda this movie's plot, then... If they extend it.
It should have been your dick, I guess you learned wrong... Or you only touched books about blowjobs :)
