"will bomb your armpit of a country into the stone age.
That's partly why they all have shiney new infrastructure while the U.S. is struggling to roll out last-generation technology!
I know! Let's bomb ourselves back into the stoneage, and then give ourselves the money to rebuild our industries with the latest equiptment!
I hate those positve threshold readers!

Oooooh, you're to good to wallow down here at -1 with the trolls and common gutter filth. You're better than that! You're just here for the cogent technical discussion! PFAH! Why don't you come down to steerage once in a while your lordship, and come face to face with the ugly machinery that makes/. work!
"I decided not to build that centrifuge. Hmm, chunks of steel at 1800 km/hr... It was just a little too scary for me."
Helpful hint: steel is a little stronger than polyethelene.
Plus, isn't that like freshman physics to calculate the forces involved? You should have had an idea of what you where dealing with before you started.
It appears that I'm both illiterate and innumerate. Schweet.
At least I can typ quickly and accurately!
I do like the poster's comment further down that,
although percentage-wise, it's a dead language, there's more scholars alive now that can read cuneiform than when it was actually in use.
"Plus, if you wrote the solution, then when something goes wrong, you actually understand the solution, and can therefore attempt to sort it out. On the other hand, if you didn't write it, then you'll have to figure out somebody else's solution in order to find what went wrong."
That doesn't do your company any good when you leave them. Then, they're worse off -- a custom solution, and no documentation! If you use standardized parts, (hopefully) they're well documented so that the second generation coder can figure out what's going on. Heck, he might already be familiar with them!
You don't see campuses requiring all freshmen to buy lightbulbs, but you don't see too many sitting around in the dark like dopes.
"Our campus is fully outfitted with MODERN indoor plumbing!"
"We're electrically literate!"
Yeeesh..... Something about learning to choose the right tool for the job and the ubiquity of computers in the US.
I thought that as we all saw on TV, we should have all been using VR interfaces back in 1996!
Desktops? How quaint.
What about the kitchen metaphore? Or better yet, the bathroom user interface?
What about countertops?
Or stovetops?
What ever happened to VRML?!! I've got this mungo-ass 3D accellemerator card that came with my PC, but my operating system utilizes exactly 0% of it. Where are the direct-to-brain elecronical interfaces invented by William Gibson? Why has the state of the art been polishing the same turd since 1978?!!!

I think that makes you my bitch.
Needless to say, the warehouse was less than pleased with him.

errr... well, and twice the circuitry. =(
I was better off than you then!
I had NAND gates and therefore could actually build stuff with them!
Going to the fridge is right out, though.
You're a geek, write a screen scraper for this.
That Hulk Hogan's the least convincing Muppet that I've seen in twenty years!
ANY show that has good-looking women in skin-tight jumpsuits (preferably shiny satin) can not be a entirely bad thing!

Worldwide cuneriform literacy down 99.999999999%!
But it's gotten much prettier!
God I hated that broken down piece of underpowered crap! But to be fair, the rust holes weren't design problems!

HAHAHAHAHA! RAMB-US ! They should do a partnership with $0!
Timothy? (ex-)GIRLFRIEND? OH COME ON!
Shoulda saved this story for Troll Tuesday so it could be crapflooded with slashdot gay linux trolls the way it so justly deserves!

WTF is the MIT admin thinking? There's already schools that specialize in that. MIT's supposed to be teaching the theorists.
I guess the old adage is right -- "all real science is physics, the rest is stamp collecting"

mmmmm, I can't wait for the first TiVirus !
Remember, this is TiVo we're talking about. You'll be getting gay pr0n commercials!
