To find out how long a project will take to complete, take the amount of time you estimate the project would take in an optimal environment, multiply by two and convert to the next higher unit of measurement.
Thus, you can determine that a job you think will take a week will take 2 months.
While I would agree that without the French, the revolutionary war would have been a very different situation, I would also not fail to note that it was in the best interests of France at the time to oppose or thwart the stable continuation of Britain's colonization efforts -- keep in mind that when America was a British colony the French had limited to -no- trading partners or rights (in the British colonies).
This is a fundamental tenet of the economical theory of mercantilism. First you colonize and populate an area, then you trade with it (It's the original 1..2..3 Profit).
Clearly the parent coward is misinformed as to the historical context of France's involvement in the Revolutionary War.
I would further contest the statement regarding: "My team couldn't do it without me, despite our 6-0 lead after 9 2/3's innings" Considering especially that France's government was in exile when the US became involved and continental France was govered by the Vichy regime, I would definitly not cast the aspersion that the US came in at the end to mop up the situation but instead to turn the tide (admittedly, WWI was a different situation).
Since light travels faster than sound, you just need to calculate the distance at which the headstart the audio has is overcome by the difference between the speed of light and the speed of sound.
43.5k a year (as a programmer with a political science degree) and my friend (a computer science degree holder) started at 47.9k. We both had internships with different companies during the last two years of college, and were hired by those companies after graduation. Keep in mind, this was in summer 2000.
[edit] The lesson is clear: stay out of movie theaters while using video cameras and you won't get arrested [/edit]
The matter of concern here isn't that the individual got in trouble for recording a movie in the theater, it's that he got arrested for what is generally a civil matter (copyright infringement). If the police had come and thrown him out and taken away his video tape/media this probably wouldn't have been news. But they booked him. That's news.
Same with Gentoo, same, I'd wager, with most community supported Linuxes.

Further, consider that you don't ever generally run Sun's JDK on popular pSeries/AIX/IBM hardware, you run IBM's provided JDKs.
Just my handy-dandy SCO code library. You'd be absolutely astonished at the number of places I've found to use all that SCO-IP code.
In all seriousness, however, I do keep a small library of Java code for my personal use. If I were to change jobs, and that new employment didn't already have code to perform functions contained in my personal library, well, depending on the professional climate of the organization I would consider passing some of my personal classes along.
Let me tell you that the IBM developerWorks Best Practices RedBook is definitely the publication you'll need.
Design patterns are great for high level architecure but when you need to get down to the nitty-gritty low level stuff it's best if you have the counsel of the experts.
I would strenuously advise you *NOT* to discuss your legal situation or case with anyone but your lawyer.
I'm aware you're French, and likely will be prosecuted in France, however, it's generally the case that any public statements you make can and will be used against you in court, thus, I would advise that you seek professional legal counsel and stop publicly discussing your upcoming case. It can (and usually does) limit the variety of strategies that your lawyer can use to defend you.
After reviewing the samples.

CSS for the LDP?

I'd have to say that I'm all for the CSS update. I was a little ambivalent at first, as I've never really payed any attention to the presentation of the documents before. But the simple, content oriented style in use in the examples makes the documentation all the more readable. And if the style makes it easier and more accessible for people, then I say go for it. The more people who read your documentation the better, in any case.
Heh. I'm sure this post falls into the redundant 'You had shoes!?!' category, but...
The first computer my family had at home was an IBM PS/2 Model-25 with a 720K 3.5" Floppy and a vast 20M hard drive, running a state-of-the art copy of DOS 3.3. The joys of X-Tree-Gold.
That does, however, exclude my previous experience at school with Apple IIE floppy-only devices.
It isn't quite cheap yet. You can eBay a reasonably priced RS/6000 (150-300 dollars). But you won't be getting anything more than a RS/6000 43P-140 (1x332mhz PowerPC 603). It'll run AIX, and fairly well (and linux), but you aren't talking horsepower in the RS/6000 game until you throw at least 5000+ dollars at IBM.
I see only one outrageous demand in your statement above:
"a wife-proof solution"
Everyone who is married knows there is no such thing. Goodness knows, my wife is computer saavy; but she is still the black-widow of computer systems. Everything she touches soon dies.
It's all about CAFE. Dodge's PT Cruiser is listed as a light truck too -- it's got a flat-load floor between the rear wheels. Dodge puts a four cylinder in the PT, which gets 30 MPG. This allows them to make even more fuel-hungry trucks and SUVs because their combined average is offset by the relatively high efficiency PT.

Better yet, nobody knew what the blue screen of death was, as the screens were green on darker green/black.
