Java: continually re-inventing the wheel, in search of additional roundness!
And so you arrive at J2EE projects on apache.org where these geniuses are writing XML configuration files which, through Reflection, essentially become scripts against the JVM.
Sometimes I wish Java could suck more.
there was a significant concern about a standing army running around North America with the potential to stage a coup d'état
Your attention is drawn to Six Frigates. Back in the day when the government served the people, (i.e. prior to our Progressive reversal) there was genuine disdain about standing forces because:
they cost so flipping much,
bureaucracy breeds bureaucracy, and
the Team America: World Police concept just wasn't there.
Hey, you know: shag all that. Let's make NASA into a national http://www.kickstarter.com/. Pour loot into NASA, instead of these godforsaken SuperPAC ads, and we'll be all over the solar system, lickety-split.
It's really not so much Constitutionality as stability. Congresses don't like explicitly binding follow-on Congresses with financial obligations. (The implicit crushing force of the national debt, well, let's gaff that off like the rest, shall we?)
One Congress giveth, and another taketh away. And when you're a company trying to do 7 and 8 figure work, you can't have that.
Which is why McNamara's Nightmare makes the DoD budget into such a Stephen King novel. The rules under which Congress will allocate multi-year funds, e.g. for a nuclear aircraft carrier, are painful.
You use differential equations ever time you wad up a piece of paper, run across the office, and shoot the wastebasket while moving.
Granted, you don't think consciously about those snaky integrals.
But they're there, wrapping your flesh like the tentacles of Cthulhu.
Sucking the life out of every cell, as you desperately attempt to look cool in front of the colleague.

Aw, c'mon: can't you at least spare a little love for the bagpipe link? And no, I make no money off blog. Purely a topical riff.

Which thesis clearly explains why no one uses Boost and it has zero developers, not to mention a dearth of creative ideas.

Only if the C++ cooties creep into the kernel.

The Burma Shave troll is over 7 years old now. Only on Tuesdays, when the mood strikes.

Arguably correct, but certainly not an occasion to go running amok, as a certain verdict in the Court of Public Opinion in November will show.
Rarely 'balanced', however, and never by means that would've been kosher accounting in any proper business.

Like old Stephen King Haiku is a doorstop Like "It: better Be"
The last German attempt at randomness was by Goethe.
His fan club was all: "Not so Faust!"
