Ain't no technological solution to a social problem.
Blaming the network for the entropy in the human soul makes all the sense of gun control laws, and every other law attempting to use external force to achieve a normative behavior.

It's everything you ever did to move information from point A to B, elevated to Unicode and packaged as XML.
You need to have a good feel for the functional style of programming for it all to make sense.
Of course, to run WS-WTF, we're going to need some Big, Big Iron.
What we really need to do with the blogosphere in the nearterm is start incrementing the float number after "Web".
For example, we could craft a series of cross-linking posts about Web 2.1, Web 3.0, Web 3.1, Web 3.2, Web 3.2.1, Web 4.0, etc.
Bonus points if the numbering gets as unintelligible as that of Java language.
Yes, but to those who espouse the paternalistic welfare state as the ideal, good deeds machen nicht and the bad deeds are only proof that the free market cannot be trusted.
Right-wing reactionary onslaught, with paranoid delusional innuendo about black helicopters piloted by men with onions for heads, denounciation Europe in general, and anyone posting to/. therefrom in particular. Extra heaping of abuse for France, delivered with a bit of Grey Poupon thereon, about how the only real flame left in Europe centers on automobiles.
Schizophrenic adoration and condemnation of Bush over stem cell policies[1] and their impact on cancer cures.

Neologistan! You missed it! Got the name for the blog. Now we need 180 ear-catching acts of linguistic vandalism to get the full Warholian 15 minutes! Woo hoo!
BTW, I agree with your sentiment. Just taking the painfully absurd route to get there.
What is the last totally new, heretofore hinted at only within impenetrable academic papers, architecture in the field of Information Technology?
Friend of mine thought that might be packet-switched networks.
While I never have seriously coded against Win32s, I have looked at the APIs across MS Office. Not a lot of core change there, across the various versions.
Solomon's observation about "nothing new under the sun" was never truer.
You believe falsely. (Possibly you're thinking of BerkelyDB). http//sqlite.org has full disclosure, even describing the virtual machine and opcodes that drive this little ~300kb, mostly-ANSI '92 compliant wonder.
Combine a scripting language for end-user forms, and you've got everything MS Access wishes it could be.
For Gentoo, you have to be prepared to spend a non-zero amount of time fiddling with stuff.
While 98% of ebuilds are good, I still have to put in a symlink in/lib from time to time, to pass the ".so what?" test.
If you relish the little details, Gentoo might be the distro for you.
Unless you have a compelling reason to change, there is no shame in Slackware.
Not only is it too cold at that latitude, you're so close to the top of the map that you risk hitting your head. Badump-bump.
Thanks. I'm here all week. Try not to confuse the/. editor with the spitoon.;)
I see your point of having made a value judgement.
The intent was to contrast anti-abortion views with anti-death penalty views.
Whether or not one feels this comparison is valid is, itself, subjective.
Personally, I'm unexcited by either prospect.
The confusion, itself, is the point.
Consider people living in places that stand likely to get whacked by bad weather. The fact that major storms happen is about as mysterious as the elevation of your house. Now, are we to have a government living in peoples' underwear, saying "you can't live here"? No, that's authoritarian. Shall the government say "sucks to be you, house all flooded"? No, we like a compassionate society, as expressed by the government. How do we resolve the conflict between a government with enough information to act in ways we like, yet not in posession of information that crushes privacy? This is the confusion I'm getting at, and to which I pointed earlier in this thread, and recevied an "Overrated" mod, which is why I typically eschew posting to threads posted by a certain minority of/. editors with whom I am apparently persona non grata.
Funny that the American government is able to sell the faraday cage as the right choice
Among the ironies of contemporary US culture is that many of the same people who desire maximal personal privacy are the same ones screaming if social programs, an invasion of financial privacy, are threatened. Conversely, one group defends unborn life, the other, criminal life. A random sampling of blogs from either side indicates that there is as much interest in reasoned, respectful debate as there is a firm grasp of facts. Still more interestingly, some are staunch defenders of free speech, while others like to mod-bomb people for expressing an opinion.
Yeah, but in the other ditch is a bunch of Civil Servants getting their faces ripped off for letting a score of thugs strongly interested in parking jets in large builds into the country.

Loot corrupts absolutely, you know.
If you look at Concrete Mathematics, isn't it fair to say that discrete math is relatively more important than continuous in a CS setting?
Maybe you don't fret about the what so much, but isn't the why of it what matters?
I've been getting more into math lately because it's useful and almost completely free of the nonsense going on within 'culture' these days.

How about an "Office Space" edition of VS that arrives in an old fax machine!
And then there is MS Office itself!
You're a genius!
The whole second part of the chart, where the emperor retreats from the Vistas of Moscow (Idaho?), seems missing.

For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat.

"Postgre" is three times as long as "My".
Then again, the P in LAMP has always been about the scripting language, not the database.
MySQL and PHP have been quite the dynamic duo of the internet.
That, and PostgreSQL took longer to have a native Lose32 port.
The fact that you can bring Python right into PostgreSQL for good stored procedure justice seems to go unnoticed.
Point is, Ballmer needs some exercise.
