That the kids found more bugs than the tester reflects poorly on the design process because the design process did not properly account for test cases. And, it reflects poorly on the developers for not properly coding for expected input and against unexpected input.
Why would I bother to have a terminal open when I can use something like Windows Explorer? Oh, right, you are using Linux and I am using Windows where I don't need to open a terminal for mundane tasks.
The submitter didn't say "he does not have enough knowledge with" Microsoft products.
What the submitter said was:
My company has bought into the FUD and is going 100% Microsoft. Rather than work in this environment and be continuously at odds with upper management, I have decided to seek employment elsewhere.
The submitter literally states that he is going to leave his job solely because he doesn't want to work with Microsoft products. He says nothing about not having the knowledge and skill needed. His decision is based solely on management choosing MS over a FLOSS solution.
You are not just assuming things, you are putting words in other people's mouths.
Women who say they are looking for their "soulmate", then describe the hot male star dujour as the minimum physical requirements. On-line dating sites just confirm something I learned a long time ago by listening to what women say they want and watching what they actual go after and date. Women say they want a man with certain intangible qualities, but what they don't say is that they want those intangible qualities in a man with certain physical traits.
Men aren't any better. Madonna/Whore syndrome runs rampant and so many of the men on dating sites are complete douchebags, complete with the classic "shirtless pic taken in the bathroom mirror" that women often stop replying to anyone whose ad isn't exactly perfect in her eyes.
On-line dating just depresses me, shows me the worst in people, and makes me anti-social.
A) Because they didn't "leave the door wide open." B) You may as well argue that people who don't lock their front door should be charged with a crime because someone steals from them. Because, that is exactly what you are doing. C) Walking in and taking things is still a CRIME. D) 35 is not "Some poor kid with a computer and a modem and a random dialer.
He want to chuck the system and replace it with a different open source system which will require developing custom features into the new system. The development team wants to just code the system and use a system that provides all the features needed.
You should be fired for putting your own personal wants over that of the needs of the project.
You said it yourself "MS SQL offers more functions with regards to geometry built in then MySQL, and my developers (good guys, but MS guys at heart) want me to switch to.net NUKE/MSSQL". Oh, and that quote also shows your anti-Microsoft bias, a bias which seems to extend to Oracle.
One engineer has an opinion and it could be a false one.
I won't believe until it can be reliably reproduced by independent researchers. Until then, it doesn't deserve to be believed. Until I can build one and have it work, it isn't real.
Simple. This is what happens when you take the scientists out of science policy. This is what happens when lawyers are put in charge of the government. This is what happens when outrage and appearance are valued over intelligence and competence. This is what happens when schools teach to the lowest common denominator and everyone gets a trophy just for trying.
This is what happens when politicians want to keep the populace ignorant and thus happy.
Has anyone been able to replicate the 1998 experiment's results? If not, then it does not look well for the claims. You see, in order for a result to be considered scientifically reliable, it needs to be reliably reproducible.
You say "anomalous heat detected in some experiments is statistically significant", yet fail to say in how many experiments. Has it been detected in most of the experiments, or just a few. You also only gave a single experiment and an excess power value, but didn't say how much power was input into the system.
Also, do you have a non-biased source? You have provided an obviously biased website and a personal website. Why should either be trusted?
A) It can exclude or discount the sites you looked at recently because you didn't find the answer there. e.g. you are looking for info on carbs and it puts the recent car sites you looked further down the list.
B) It can promote the sites you have looked at recently because you found it before and now want to refer back to it. e.g. you searched for something earlier, found it, now you are searching for it again, so it refers back to the sites you looked at for the same search.
C) It can promote sites similar to the ones you have looked at recently. e.g. you have recently looked at Sci Fi websites and then search for "Firefly", so it increases the ranking for the SciFi sites and decreases the ones for entomology.
You are not using Google. The websites you are visiting are using Google.
Some sites display ads from Google, some use Google Analytics, etc. The website may be using
While YOU didn't "ask for google to be part of that 'conversation'", the web site you are visiting did ask them so they have every right to be there. Your real problem is not with Google. It is with the websites you are visiting. They are the ones inviting Google in. Most-likely, they are doing it because they don't want to be bothered with coding their own statistics and analytics engine but they could be using other services as well.

Next question.
Oh, you want a reason. No keyboard.
Next question.
I don't have to read wiki for something I lived, fuckwit.
That the kids found more bugs than the tester reflects poorly on the design process because the design process did not properly account for test cases.
And, it reflects poorly on the developers for not properly coding for expected input and against unexpected input.
And, you are just a fucking idiot. I said they copied the look and feel, and they did. I used them, and they looked just like Windows 95.
Why would I bother to have a terminal open when I can use something like Windows Explorer? Oh, right, you are using Linux and I am using Windows where I don't need to open a terminal for mundane tasks.
Not for anyone who has bothered to learn how to use their computer.
So, for over 90% of people who use Windows computers.
That simple huh?
mount: Could not find any loop device.
Consider that GNOME, KDE, and several other IDE/Window managers took their look and feel directly from Windows.
Oh, if only I had some mod points. Yours is one of the most relevant posts here.
And, where is Al, Bill, etc getting their money? Are they hiring programmers? If not, how does that apply to this situation?
And, DogDude has a very valid point.

What it does to me is lower my opinion of people.
Women who say they are looking for their "soulmate", then describe the hot male star dujour as the minimum physical requirements. On-line dating sites just confirm something I learned a long time ago by listening to what women say they want and watching what they actual go after and date.

Here, let me help you understand:
Right, that because the discount clothing industry is the first one that comes to mind when I think of "serious about security".
Maybe you should search for articles about T.J. Maxx here on Slashdot.
but Marriott is just trying to shift the blame of their security flaws so investors don't point the blame at them.
And, drunk chicks are just trying to shift the blame when they call the guys who fuck them when they are passed out "rapists".
A) Because they didn't "leave the door wide open."
B) You may as well argue that people who don't lock their front door should be charged with a crime because someone steals from them. Because, that is exactly what you are doing.
C) Walking in and taking things is still a CRIME.

Is Emanuel a dinosaur or a pragmatist?
Of course, the submitter left off the fact that he might be neither a dinosaur nor a pragmatist. Rather, he could be quite correct in his assessment.
He want to chuck the system and replace it with a different open source system which will require developing custom features into the new system. The development team wants to just code the system and use a system that provides all the features needed.
Wikipedia is afraid it may be o have to shut down. They are protecting themselves, not me or my freedom.
nothing of value was lost.

What part of "reliably" did you not understand?

Several different ways:
A) It can exclude or discount the sites you looked at recently because you didn't find the answer there. e.g. you are looking for info on carbs and it puts the recent car sites you looked further down the list.
B) It can promote the sites you have looked at recently because you found it before and now want to refer back to it. e.g. you searched for something earlier, found it, now you are searching for it again, so it refers back to the sites you looked at for the same search.
