But none of those sports have ghosts! Why can't someone think of the ghosts? You don't want innocent ghosts being eaten, do you? Then who will be left to scare the children?
My company creates very large sites with LAMP. We also do Python, Flash, etc. so it's not because we only know PHP. If you don't see the job postings it's for one of 2 reasons: you're looking in the wrong places; or the jobs are largely found by networking and other methods.
Large financial companies will find developers through job posting sites and head hunters. These companies usually develop on commercial platforms (.NET, websphere, etc.). But large web sites are usually owned by relatively small companies who use more networking and direct contact with open source developers.
PHP and MySQL are quite capable of running large web sites. They were not created with large scale in mind, however, so there are special considerations you need to keep in mind. I don't recommend it for every lage site, but in the right situations it works.
Maybe/. doesn't want to support Amazon due to their stance on patents. Both Amazon and B&N have affiliate programs. B&N has less (if any) software patents.
You can make a game where there's no story at all and the player gets total freedom. That can get boring if the average player doesn't know how to create an experience or there feels like there's no point to being in the game. You can make a game where there's a strict story and the player has few options. That can get boring because the user doesn't have to think much.
So every game needs to strike a balance depending on its goals.
There actually isn't a clear difference. That's why it's debated here online and in court. For example, porn stars don't usually use their real names. It could be argued that a porn star who picks the name Barbie is trying to lure kids into porn. Only the porn star really knows. Now she can be dragged into court for no other reason than the choice of her own name.
Maybe the naked woman's name is Barbie? I'm sure at some point in time a naked woman named Barbie has been in a picture such as this. And maybe a guy named Barney is providing the facial. These are real names, you know.
Do you realize how silly you sound not defending freedom of speech?
In NYC there are at least 2 AM stations that broadcast traffic reports every 10 minutes (880, 1010). My father's been listening to them since before I was born. This is far safer and probaby even easier than trying to bring it up on your cell. Plus they tell you what's going to be happening in the near future, like typical rush-hour traffic jams and construction.
Page rank doesn't refer to the location in search results. It's a value google places on each page and it's used to help calculate the order of search results. PR 0 is lowest, 10 is highest.
No insights, but I'll say it's a myth. What's really happening is your results are partly based on age. If your domain has no history you'll need steady flow of many new inbound links for google to consider you of any value. If you don't have enough new inbound links over time google will wait for your domain to age to consider it a little more valuable.
Basically I'm saying age is just another of many factors. There is not sandbox per se.
That's not exactly true. While many SEOs claim special knowledge which they don't have, a good SEO can tell you how to modify your page containing real content to rank better. Meta tags, bolding keywords, proper titles, etc. can help a page appear higher in search engine results. It's not magic from no content. It's presentation of the same content in a way search engines would prefer.
Half the internet got their PR up to 5. Half of those who were already at 5 got bumped up to 6. To me 5 is the new 4 and 6 is the new 5. 9 is reserved for Slashdot, 8 for Wikipedia, and 7 for lots of useless but popular blogs.
But in the end it doesn't really matter except for bragging rights. Although those bragging rights can help raise sponsors...
No one licensed Mazda's rotary engine, which is better than your typical car engine in most respects. Less moving parts, less strain and more efficiency as the rotor kept some momentum. It was a great design but never caught on. Either they were asking for too much money from other manufacturers or other manufacturer weren't interested.
But it shouldn't happen in the government. I think the problem here is he used the intranet. If he posted to his own public website he might not have been fired. And if he had only posted to his own site then he definitely should not have been fired.
Right, because we've NEVER gotten information by any other means. Spying never works. Bribery never works. Negotiation never works.
In fact, name a single piece of valuable correct information the US has ever gotten by means of torture. Didn't we supposedly overthrow Saddam because he was a vicious dictator who tortured his own people (that's the line these days)? Then how is the US government any different if they torture people?
If you're a hardware distributor you'd like to control what software is installed when you sell your computers. You'd like for your users to have a pleasant and unique experience right out of the box. If the OS distributor controls the defaults you've lost a slight potential edge in the market. If the OS defaults are customizable, however, you have more control over the computers you sell.

Should we make it legal to con little old ladies into giving away their entire life savings? Why not? Where do you see a difference
When a little old lady gets conned it's quite obvious. When a porn star picks the name Barbie it's not clear if she's intending to deceive.
I think it just makes you guys feel smart and important to get apocalyptic and pissed about everything.
I think it just makes you feel righteous to "protect the children" and not realize there are negative consequences.

Free speech debates are never black-and-white.
I am just imagining a porn star named Pokeman. Oops, now I wish I wasn't...

Apparently you never saw it because it had super-slick multimedia capabilities which blew away any other OS at the time.

Geeks are expected to inherently know the definition of all technology-related acronyms.
Search Engine Optimization
Basically it means trying to get your web pages listed as highly as possible on search engine result pages (a.k.a. SERPs)
No one licensed Mazda's rotary engine, which is better than your typical car engine in most respects. Less moving parts, less strain and more efficiency as the rotor kept some momentum. It was a great design but never caught on. Either they were asking for too much money from other manufacturers or other manufacturer weren't interested.
Damn it, I typed "I've" instead of "I'm". I have lots of type-o experience points.
I've a 5th level vegan. I don't eat anything that casts a shadow.

Make as much noise about torture as possible.
But what if it's a recipe from "How to Serve Man"? You support baby-eaters? Won't anyone think of the children?
Microsoft? Compatibility? That's how we know your post is a fake.
