My take is this: an operator should do something "internal". Windows can't be equal to each other, nor can buttons. They can be _the same_, so the syntax should temind the programmer. Pseudocode:
button1 = button2 (button1 == button2) -> true
button1 = new Button("Hi", parent) button2 = new Button("Hi", parent)
(button1 == button2) -> false
make sense? equal and equivelant aren't the same thing. i think a perl programmer would agree.
I do love that program. It forces me to get up and stretch because I can't do anything else. Very very well done. Anyone know of an OS X version that's as well done? (I really like how if I am idle for the break period, the countdown 'till break resets. Good idea!)
Because how do you know if an object is "equal" to another object. What does "equal" mean? Is 3 "equal" to 3.00?
That's why you implement the equals() or compareTo() methods, then equals works the way you want. Is a.equals(b) really that hard to type? If so, you should not be a programmer.
It's hard to speak out against someone when they have data and you have speculation. Should people be writing viruses? No. But this guy wanted to know if 99% of webcams are boring, and now HE knows. That's pretty cool, really.
Actually I did get away with a copy-and-paste paper. I reworded a lot of things, but the fact of the matter is, paper = you-can-paste-it-into-google. Ahahaha.
Reminds me of the time I went to BestBuy to get UT2004. I picked it up and the guy was like, "Do you need accessories for that?"
Like what accessories. Batteries? It's a VIDEO GAME.
Yeah and on that same day Best Buy snarfed my info from my credit card and _called my cell phone_ with "offers". Guess when I'm going to Best Buy again. Never.
This like that spam auto-takedown that we read about yesterday. Post a picture of your favorite athlete and watch him get DQ'd. Yay! Thanks for preserving the Spirit of the Games, you assholes.
At least this is one case where the corporate überlords are getting fucked... nobody watches the Games anymore. What do they like better, I wonder: The day-long delays in footage, or the fact that we only see events where the US "rocks".
That's just not true. When they're looking for child porn, they could care less about your priated copy of WinXP. If they did care, they would not be able to admit that evidence to a court, anyway.
It's the same as the random searches on the T. if they find a bomb in your backpack, you're fucked. If they find pot, they won't arrest you. They legally can't (since they couldn't legally search you).
They're not _that_ hot. They are very warm, but they don't burn you. It's the side effect of having a case made out of aluminum (what do they make heatsinks out of? aluminum.)
I can only get mine (15", 1.33GHz) warm enough to turn the fan on when I'm using 100% CPU _and_ GPU. The CPU alone doesn't get it too hot.
It's not a fucking ad. It's slightly interesting. How else would have you found out about this AND gotten to hear comments about it, anyway.
Even if it is an ad, what right do you have to complain. You're not paying for slashdot. Go elsewhere if you don't like it. I'm a subscriber (read: I pay money to see slashdot) and I love articles like this. Okay!?
This is becoming the new cliché on slashdot... "this is an ad... slashdot sucks... whine whine"
It's been said so many times that it's not interesting, insightful, or funny. That makes it -1 Redundant.

I don't really like it when the computer thinks for me... i'm a programmer at heart... _I_ tell the computer what to do :)
Look at QT. That abuses ==.

He meant the lightest non-obvious planet. Some planets in our solar system are obviously lighter...
C'mon... Wake up and think!

How about a 40G iPod. It's small, it's firewire (and USB 2.0), and can play music too.
Sounds like a friend who got a new Thinkpad and named it Ying. After Ying wouldn't date him.
Ahahahaha.
I save, compile, and view LaTeX with this beautiful command...
C-x C-s C-c C-f C-c C-v
What's sad is I didn't know what keys to press; I had to go into emacs and try it once to be able to write it down.

Hey i got my B-. Who cares anyway. I get to be GPPA/Honors college so whatevarrr...
:-D
Who is in the 490-level classes, again
This isn't a troll, it's a fair point...

Let's go set them off and see! Waiting is no fun!
I'm right though. I win. Fuck you.

Are you sure? I can stream purchased music over the network with no problem. Although, I think that both machines are authorized to play my music...
It's called "1000BaseT".
They can delete read-only media now? Cool!

> Sorry I pointed out an area where Windows has Linux beat. I didn't mean to get you so uppity.
What, you don't have to install a new version of Windows to get the LatestAndGreatest worms and viruses?
Yeah but it's fallen out of use. Use "inquire" and it will look normal to everyone.
Okay, so you installed an ancient version of Linux and you had to upgrade it to get modern programs to work? No fucking shit.
If I install Win95, iTunes isn't going to run. Gee Windows sucks. Cry, cry, cry.
You are a moron.
Gee you copy other people's posts and then you get modded down? We heard the idea once, and that was enough. Think of something else to say.
