Are you sure you can compare the X11 protocol with gdi.exe (or whatever it's called in WindowsXP)?
The juxtaposition seems as disingenious as that of the Linux kernel alongside the whole Windows OS.
Running GNU/Linux you've got an embarrassment of choices, and a configuration zoo of libraries to support them, from the spartan minimalism of Ion to the full-tilt boogie of Enlightenment, with KDE and Gnome somewhere in between. So party.
Or just log in to a terminal and get your Emacs on. It really is all good.
In all seriousness: is there a significant advantage to using PHP?
Can we say it readily supports simple things in a (subjectively) more obvious way than <alternative>?
Nah, just supports mananging a few concurrent, graphical applications.
I run Gnus, ECB, and ERC in separate Emacs instances,
And Firefox for browsing.
You just ALT+x to get where you want to go.
The smell of the under-engineering resembles that of the air in the countryside in Spring, flowers abloom, just after a bit of rain.
Performance un-suffers as well, anti-staggering under the non-weight of chrome and tailfin involved in the whole contra-design.
I may want to install E17 anyway, just to re-live the dissonance achieved when a Baptist boy went to Vespers and Matins at a Russian Orthodox cathedral...
The Gentoo package database lists
e and says it's "the e17 window manager" and Enlightenment, with the description "Enlightenment Window Manager" and version 0.16.9999
<obvious joke goes here>
Maybe I'll emerge e later.
It might be a fun dissonance, to have a little shell script that randomly flops between Enlightenment and Ion3, my current WM.
Because, really, when did Emacs care fig #1 about the WM, much less X?;)
Truly. Why bother with the lawsuit, when you can just buy the offender outright, like that Mike Rowe fellow?
Heroin wishes it could have the narcotic effect of cold, hard cash.
Your true remark omits some important context.
When you live by such a sword, the media/community/marketplace will discover your perfidy, take your sword, and slay you therewith.

Slashdot shall have arrived when it has spoken with The Man.
And, if you can't get Gates, go Gibbons! Let's hear about how that six-legged boogie-band plays the Open Source Blues.
So you're effectively treating the file as a closure to 'bracket' a few variables.
Two possible arguments against so doing are:
legibility might suffer, if the variable declaration is distant from its use
resource management might be an issue, if you're instantiating "a lot" of stuff before you get around to using it.
I think singletons have their appropriate uses, and any idiom can be perverted.
Besides RedHat's configuration tools, Gentoo's Portage leans heavily on python.
Additionally, such killer libraries as PyMacs, boost::python, and the conspicuously-absent-within-your-troll Jython, show that the snake is quietly slithering where few have been able to go.
Or, maybe you could consider the insane amount of comp.lang.python traffic.
Python's biggest weakness, execution speed, is exactly the least important thing in a scripting language. Its strengths are legion and will continue to increase.
Props to the BDFL.
For some values of "behaves differently"
Go boostify the code in question, and you'll probably get good results for VC7.1 vs. GCC, WRT STL.
The GUI is a different beast--the extended kerfluffles on the boost mailing lists about a boost GUI are an instructive read about the spectrum of design philosophies, irrespective of the gritty implementation details.
But, hey: real men run emacs in a terminal, so what's this fuss about, anyway?:)
That means that either people are stupid, or the computer scientists are missing something. I think that it's mostly the latter.
I think the OR in your proposition points to the fact that two of the dimensions involved in the mad world of IT are the tactical world of business, and the strategic world of academia.
I submit that business and academia are communicating on different frequencies, really do make sense, and only start to get confusing when you tune into exactly one frequency and start viewing the resulting signal out of context.
It's Friday, and I'm posting something thougtful to/. Hmmm. Must be time to eject.
As long as the mods are open source, why not do the following: make a list of regular expressions matching unsafe calls, tokenize the mod source, and check it for naughtiness?
Might not be the quickest, but so what?
Possibly you can name a good 802.11g card with WEP support.
Trying to get my kernel to compile in the right support for Gentoo 2004.3 has been an ordeal.
I've got the firmware and everything working under the live CD. This page has a note that's kinda funny:
7.c. Default: Manual Configuration
Introduction.
Manually configuring a kernel is often seen as the most difficult procedure a Linux user ever has to perform. Nothing is less true -- after configuring a couple of kernels you don't even remember that it was difficult;)
I assure you, after I've proffered the correct burnt offerings to appease the kernel gods, I shall never view the procedure as trivial.
If you zoom out, you only see North America. Right. Here is the plan:
Since we already have Map Making, obviously, we need to have one of our cities with lots of shields building the Lighthouse. Pick one with copious food on hand, and let it run at a food deficit to speed up production. Check on it every turn, so a riot doesn't interrupt production.
Get one or two other cities building triremes, and make sure we have some settler and phalanx units handy, so that we can start exploring as soon as the ships are ready.
If they come rolling in from Asia or Europe or South America with a bunch of chariots, make peace as soon as possible and try to negotiate for technology.
I think the situation is grave, but, with proper planning and a pinch of luck, we can pull this out. <Leslie Nielson voice>I just want you to know that we're all depending on you.</Leslie Nielson voice>
More specifically, Mono.
When Mono is 'ready', and MS Office is ported to C#, do you foresee marketing GNU/Linux binaries of Word/Excel/PowerPoint/Access/Visio/Project?
My suspicion is, sure, for MS has always favored profit over prophesy.
Domo.

Preach it, brother. This is actually useful, and a public service, particularly if you follow the article links. Thanks, Mr. Softy!

U R teh st00p3d. Everyone knows that the real upper bound is 640k. Running Emacs, obviously.
And it wouldn't have happened at all if not for a very open, standards-based approach.
