Because you arrogant asshole coders that read this site think you're gods just because you can code and that you don't need commented code and solid project design BEFORE a line of code is typed and any other 'suit/manager' stuff. It's some game to you people, not a profession. It's a little contest with all of your quake buddies to see who can write the most l33t single line, cryptic, non-commented or documented code. I have news for you all. Software sucks because of you and your unrightfully inflated egos.
I know CmdrTaco has given his disclaimers about his inability to correctly spell simple words and form simple sentences, but good god. I invite you all to reread that quickie article. The same sentence is said 2 times, blah blah. DO YOU EVER USE PREVIEW YOURSELF CMDRTACO? It's carelessness, and it's painful to read. CmdrTaco, take some of that 50 mill and enroll yourself into the local primary school.
The properties important in mobile environment (low power consumption => low heat) are also important in a server farm where those things are magnified.
fucko: 'microsoft' is an entity, a singular object. say 'microsoft is,' it's very simple. btw anyone who doesn't agree microsoft is an entity 1. is a moron and 2. should check up on standard tax law and business type definitions.
He tried to re-span k5 about 4 weeks ago but people got the drift and moderated his story submission down to the point where I don't believe it was posted. Well gotta hand it to him for persistence, however shameless it is.
"New Scientist have published this little news story about the development of a kind of quantum shielding that might help the development of real quantum computers."
Shouldn't that be 'New Scientist has published...' rather than have? I'm not trying to be a pedantic grammar troll but I see this stuff a lot now and hear it on CNN a non-trivial number of times. (ala 'a moment an history.') Is there some grammatical revolution I'm not taking part in?
But I gotta have my Everquest and other various computer games.:) The VirtuaPC software is a great x86 emulator and I would be content to use it for all Windows-only software, only it simply cannot handle games. (Trust me, I've often tried to find ways to rationalize a move to Apple for, among other reasons, the Cinema Display.:)
Am I the only one who remembers like 3 years ago or so, CPUs were starting to get ~ 32-64 KB L1 cache and 512K L2 cache? I don't know where the *fuck* things took a 180 degree turn but they did and I'm just wondering why I've never heard any commentary on it. It's freaks me out big time. That L1 and L2 cache helps *hugely*.
I'm not one to partake in the most fashionable MS-bashing, but I call shit as I see it. In this case, I can't believe these ASSHOLES treating bug reports as 'content.' As if they are not bad enough about fixing (Or not creating in the first place for that matter.) bugs now they consider bug reports valuable content? The next thing you know MS will create a 'developers first-look' service where you have to subscribe to their for-pay service as the only way to view bug/security reports. hmm.../me runs off to email a business proposal to MS.;)

Perhaps Mozilla team is also trying to take an unconventional open source project route, quality. Flame me all you like but open source projects are notorious for throwing whatever code they get submitted into the pot. This is how I compare software. Closed source software is like the food my mom makes. She follows recipes but it always sucks. Open source software is like the food my step father makes. He throws everything in the refridgerator into it and... it sucks. I am hard on the Mozilla team for just making another bloated ass browser, but I give credit where credit is due. I commend an attempt to get one of the most visable open source projects into a professional/quality track.
What pisses me off is that we web developers have to create hokey ass hacks to make web pages with more than 5 lines of HTML display how we intend them in Netplate. (My new name for Netscape since it dishes out so much !@#$@%^.) Sometimes people say that Netplate just requires perfect code. While it is true that Netplate requires cleaner code, mine is absolutely perfect (How fucking hard is HTML, really?) and I routinely break Netscape. Even Mozilla doesn't display my W3C only HTML properly. @!$%&^#$*, our open source holy grail, mozilla, is just another fucking netplate with customary bloat et al.
Actually, under Clinton's 1998 Crime Bill if you have sex with someone under the age of 18, EVEN IN ANOTHER COUNTRY, it is a *federal felony*. Nice eh? Don't ask how I found out, let me just say that the way I found out wasn't the only hard thing.;) uhuhuhu
While agree using another firm's code that was obtained illegally is wrong, it sorta pisses me off, this situation. You all damn know MS has taken code from open source projects, all fine since they keep their source closed. Yet since we are doing the right thing and keeping our code open, we have to nearly *expect* MS legal to go on a witch hunt. I tell you what, I don't think 2 wrongs make a right but I have a sweaty lusty desire for this source getting released into public domain. Once it's been there long enoug, it'll slowly creep into open projects and y'all know it.

It mentions huge bandwidth usage by 'metacomputing' and 'web agents'. What IS metacomputing and what ARE web agents!?!

It's Microsoft has NOT "Microsoft have."
See he only cares about making it big like CmdrTaco did. Under the facade of 'community building' he just cares about making cash.

Would you please talk about something other than yourself for once? I'm beginning to think you're arrogant.

I gotta get one of those. Maybe /. would finally render in an acceptable amount of time. :)
What about people who broadcast for non-profit motives?
