One day something went wrong during a routine upgrade and I lost KDE. Since it would take a while to fix, I decided that this would be the perfect time to try out E17. I started my laptop since my desktop was down for other reasons.
I got this big mess of white on black stuff, I couldn't tell which windows were which and could get barely anything to work. Obviously someone had chosen a really horrid theme. So I went to freenode, caught a couple of E17 developers in their channel. Instead of getting advice on how to change thde theme to something more usable, I get berated because I was using debian stable. What was I to expect from a distro that uses such old packages.
With advice like that I decided I would be better off with KDE.
Microsoft should extend support for XP...but only on a cash-for-patch basis. Sell patches at $5 a pop for XP user's, or a one Year Security Update Subscription for $20.
It's a win-win situation....
Do you realize just how dumb this suggestion is. Imagine Ford announcing they have this car that starts on fire if it has a rear end collison, but it's OK. For $500 they will replace the gas tank with a safer one that won't catch fire in a rear end collision.
You can bet the first time MS announces "there is this bug in XP that allows hackers to come in and own your computer,.the fix will cost you five bucks", 20 State Attorneys will be filing consumer protection lawsuits in a New York minute.
Does that include all the money spent of federal workers doing California related stuff? A portion of the money spent by the federal government policing the Mexican Border? The cost to administrating Social Security for California? The IRS personnel needed to collect taxes from California? The cost of enforcing copyright law to protect California IP? I think any businessman would say 15% is rather low overhead.
The people who live in rural Illinois feel like the people who live in Chicago and the suburban areas surrounding Chicago disproportionately affect Illinois politics. They feel that the state would be better without Chicago.
They certainly affect the level of corruption in Springfield (Illinois state capital ). Since most of the corruption from "the most corrupt state in the union" comes from Chicago/Cook County.
OK. Here is a clue for you. The Gladstone Institutes is a nonprofit. Since this is an established drug with an established record, upwards of 90% of the testing has been done. So what risks are the drug companies taking?
When I first read the story, my instinct first instinct was to get up and say:"Mr. President I was came hear today to discuss NSA surveillance. Since that does not seem to be what will happen, I have other more important things I must do. So I will be going now. "
If allowed to leave I wonder who else would follow me. If not allowed to leave, what would the Secret Service do? Arrest me? There would be no reason to. Detain me as a danger to the president? I'm leaving not much reason their. In fact refusing to let me leave would be criminal kidnapping.
Jobs are drying up so fast yet the population just keeps growing.
Actually, in industrial countries the native populations are decreasing. They are only rising because of high rates of immigration from third world countries.
Ok. I get why people submit articles to these journals. But what I don't get is why people edit and review for these journals for free. Many mathematicians are refusing to do it for Elsevier, in the Boycott Elsevier movement, and it has been having an impact.
FOR EACH USER IN USERS
SENDMESSAGE(USER, "Happy Birthday") NEXT USER
Ruby doesn't look much different: Users.each{|user|
user.SendMessage("Happy Birthday") }
As I get older, I believe more and more than the creators of BASIC knew what they were doing, and make something kids and beginners could understand quickly even if it wasn't perfect.

I think MS has been sued enough.

He ( Goody ) wasn't specific as to what kind of cousins.

North Carolina allowing cousins to marry,
Like FDR and Elenor? Though I don't think they were married in North Carolina.

...if the Fremont Troll is still there? Maybe he decided to take this on.
I'm hoping for the library. Then this could become a beautification project.

So what would happen?
screwed ov er the country enough already.

In other words pervert their minds so that they can become PHBs.
All the mistakes those guys taught them. I figure it will take at least 10 hours.
Jobs are drying up so fast yet the population just keeps growing.

They clearly haven't looked at this from the users perspective.
I don't want some device telling me I am emotional and stressed and shouldn't be eating. Fact is I would probably smash the device after a while.
Of course on top of that, it hurts my emotional and stress levels to be told that I am emotional and am stressed out.
The whole thing is one big fail.

So where can I get a copy of all the episodes of Robert Morse's wonderul show "That's Life"?
Yet somehow Smalltalk thrived with it.
they use this for pizza delivery.

So what would have been wrong with a BASIC-like:
FOR EACH USER IN USERS
SENDMESSAGE(USER, "Happy Birthday")
NEXT USER
Ruby doesn't look much different:
Users.each{|user|
user.SendMessage("Happy Birthday")
}
As I get older, I believe more and more than the creators of BASIC knew what they were doing, and make something kids and beginners could understand quickly even if it wasn't perfect.
Yeah but then Bill Gates came around to spoil it.
People who fiddle with their phones aren't filming you. That's why you tolerate them.

Come to think of it you have a point. I just think of all the upskirt videos shot with Google Glass and how cell phones are *never* used that way.
