Agents were actually seen running away from the battle field! This simple bug was resolved by adding the rule "If you can't see an enemy, turn around

  2. why is paradox impossible? on How to Build a Time Machine · · Score: 1

    The article says
    'Paradoxes of this kind arise when the time traveler tries to change the past, which is obviously impossible'

    why? Is there a theory that proves this? I remember Michael Crichton's timeline where he argues why one can not change the past with the example of changing the outcome of a baseball game - one person can't go to the stadium and change the outcome. I didn't buy that.

  3. .NET and SunONE? on Mono and .NET - An Interview · · Score: 1

    Microsoft is pushing .NET and Sun has SunOne No, Sun has J2EE. SunONE is the crappy app server which used to be called iPlanet.
