Actually, it's the second link, not the first, at least when I do the query, YMMV.
And, if you load the (cached version), you'll see that Google doesn't rely entirely on the search term being in the page, it can appear on links pointing to the page.
Thus, we have links with the phrase "miserable failure" pointing to this page, and, not surprisingly, it is a highly rated page, so it show up first or second in the results.
Why does Sun insist on diluting the Java name? A very large percentage of non-programmers who know the term Java don't know the difference between it and JavaScript. Now they're doing it again with Java Desktop. Isn't having Microsoft trying to kill Java enough without trying to do it themselves?
Thanks, it would have been nice to see that list in the review.
I'm curious though, why you lump everything together under the word 'framework.' To me, framework implies a particular programming model that must be maintained. So JUnit is indeed a framework, though it doesn't at all compare directly with Struts, a framework with a completely different purpose. When I looked at the table of contents, I expected to see some sort of classification scheme.
And things like Xerces I wouldn't class as a framework at all, more an API.
4.a. In general - If a recipient makes a request using a mechanism provided pursuant to paragraph (3) not to receive some or any commercial electronic mail message from such sender, then it is unlawful - (i)...(ii)...(iii)...(iv) for the sender, or any other person who knows that the recipient has made such a request, to sell, lease, exchange, or otherwise transfer or release the electronic mail address of the recipient...for any purpose other than compliance with this act.
While I don't quite agree with If your web-app is so complex as to need a framework, your web-app probably sucks, since even a simple bank-balance application can benefit from a good framework.
However, I'm afraid that the backlash may take much longer to arrive (and we'll be stuck coding in the ghastly web-app universe for aome time). The reason is that kludge after kludge will be layered on top of the browser (Sparkle, anyone) as an attempt to "get by".
No more so than the Catholics and other Protestants in Germany at the time.
Quoting Martin Luther on Jews is pretty much like quoting Pope Urban IV about Galileo and the Copernican system. What they said may be accurately quoted, but they are products of their time and not particularly relevant to the period under discussion.
I certainly don't expect everything I read on the Internet to be true.:-) However, you have to take human behavior in to account.
Modern day journalism lives by the Internet. No one is going to go into the library to search creaky old microfilm archives when "everything is on line." Except what if it isn't?
Indeed at least
two
sites document the Apple viruses in 1981. In addition, they were discussed in theory as early as 1949, and appeared in science fiction as least by 1975 in John Brunner's great
Shockwave Rider, which was the inspiration for Robert Morris' famous
Internet worm.
I once saw a documentary that showed...evidence for the case that the whole thing was a frame up. There's no mention of that on the above site all!
Actually, if you follow the link at the bottom of page 2, you will read (amoung other things):
One alternative theory suggests that Salisbury became aware of the plot some time before the warning was sent - the 'Monteagle Letter' may have been fabricated by government officials in order to 'frame' the conspirators.
It's clearly being used beyond is "intended" purpose, i.e., to track down terrorists. As this article describes it has been used in hundreds of non-terror cases already.
And if you think that every one it has been used on was guilty, look up bridges in the want ads.
Items that follow the schema are stored in the WinFS store as serialized.NET objects...
Well, that's says they're betting the company on.NET (or at least maintainging an emulator for the next couple dozen years.) It seems a bit short-sighted to me to put a runtime system dependency into the file system, but hey, I'm not one of the Microsoft uber-genius designers either.
It's good to see Java following Microsoft's lead...
While Java is definitely borrowing from C# when it comes to autoboxing and enums, the generics work shouldn't be credited to MS. It came from a Java variant called GJ that was first written in 1998 as a collaboration between Sun and the University of SouthAustralia. Guy Steele was a champion, and there have been plans to get into Java ever since, and they have taken quite a while to get it out. I was hoping to see it way back in 1.3.
It's already there in Java 1.5
on
C# 2.0 Spec Released
·
· Score: 4, Informative
Enums have been added, generics have been added, automatic iteration in for loops have been added, et cetera. True, it hasn't been released yet (the first Java 1.5 betas are due next quarter), neither is Whidbey, and the JSRs have been out for some time, and the prototype compiler with generic support has been available for months.
The government is not, in fact, planning on censoring the web sites or making them directly illegal.
True enough, but consider this: Under U.S. law, it would be illegal to provide money or other material support to the designated Web sites
Technically, if you clicked on a banner ad at one of those sites, and the site made money from from the clickthrough, you are now providing money to the site. Actually, if they made money from impressions, you'd be providing money merely by visiting the site.
Now, I don't think many advertisers will be lining up to support those sites, but this is definitely on the edge of trampling first amendment rights.
Yeah. Wouldn't it be great if instead of paying $40/month for 100 channels of noise, 24/7, you could pay your $40 and get say 100 hours of stuff that you actually wanted to see, when you wanted to see it.
Note that in the article, they compared the responses of the chickens to male college students and found a corelation...Seems like there's lots of room for further study there.

Not only that, the physiological reason has been known for a long time, as well.
All of the man's blood has rushed from his head and gone...other places.

No conspiracy here, move along.
Yes, it was, but clearly they had the tacit acceptance of Sun.
Don't you think if you created a language called WindowScript (or OracleScript or IBMScript) that you'd have lawyers jumping all over you?
Why does Sun insist on diluting the Java name? A very large percentage of non-programmers who know the term Java don't know the difference between it and JavaScript. Now they're doing it again with Java Desktop. Isn't having Microsoft trying to kill Java enough without trying to do it themselves?

Excuse me, but what frameworks are compared and covered?
Are we talking GUI frameworks, JSP Engines, Web application frameworks, what?
This "review" told me nothing.

I'm looking forward to to car that randomly turns left when you turn the steering wheel to the right.
I'd say that depends on whether those monopolies have competition.
Ever own a dictionary? They're easy to use, handy to have around, and relatively cheap. When used judiciously, can help prevent foot-in-mouth disease.

Slashdotted. But it leaves a nice advertisement for Microsoft on your screen.
