.... and pretends that his luck is a matter of the place where he is (US) and of how talented he is.
I will not question your limiteless talent, I am sure you invented the Internet or something like that, but I know for certain that very talented people are without work out there.
Your ascertions would make me laugh if they were not about the very sad and difficult times that people in the industry are facing.
In which town do you live? I have been working in London, NY, Hamburg, Mexico City and Singapore during the last year and the situation in all is the same: no jobs.How do I know? Because we can't hire anybody anywhere, budgetary constrains accross the board are commonplace, talking to many other people in the industry I know they are in the same situation. Your mythical City were there are always oportunities is right now not in my map, but I'll keep looking to find Shangri-la.
If you are applying for a job the piles of CVs employers receive are higer, the recruitment agencies are closing and in general you only get a chance if you are extremely experienced, qualified and lucky.
If you are hiring (which is extremely rare in most companies) you have to choose 1 amongst 100, 2 years ago you would beg people to come and work for you (not because we were griddy dot.com idiots, the market was like that and we had to deal with that).
You are the 1 amongst those one hundred that got lucky and begins to boast to the other 99 jobless people how they lack drive and why they are not waving their US flag.
You sir need a bit of humbleness, things are not that easy and you are only oversymplifying, how somebody that has been 13 years in the same company can be advicing others about how to go about getting new jobs in a depleted economy (close to be a recessive one) is absolutely beyond me and is close to be insulting to be perfectly honest (like if jobless people lacked the drive that you surely have in such generous amounts or do not love enough their blessed by God almighty country).
If people fighting for the Taliban have such tenous links to al Qaeda then, answer (dotted lines for you thoughtful answers courtesy of truly yours): -Why did the US attack AFghanistan in the first place:............ -Why did the US went to the effort to flight people of the Taliban army to Gaunatanamo for further interroagation?........
The whole point of bombing Afghanistan was that the Taliban were supporting al Qaeda, this guy was part of the Taliban army and may I say, would have more insight into US affairs than an AFghani that has never left his country. Would not you want to use your wide self annointed powers to apply the necessary persuassion to obtain more information?
He knows the evidence that nobody else in the public has seen!
And he knows sooo much that has already passed judgment!
Police, judge, jury and executioner emobodied in one power (why to meedle with the judiciary or the legislative). That is what is in offer and this FBI/CIA agent has already decided that it works.
The target is completely irrelevant, the pain caused sadly is as well.
War is clearly differentiated from terrorism, in a war you have an army to fight against and a goverment directing that army. You have neither of those when fighting terrorism.
Terrorists are the most vicious of common criminals and they should be fought as such. Aiming blindly breaking your own freedoms in the process will not stop them and will only erode your hard earned rights.
... until you answer the relevant questions, shut up, or admit you are mistaken.
French saboteurs were under the orders of the French goverment. A foreign goverment.
These alleged terrorists banded amongst themsleves, they represent no army and no goverment, they represent only themselves and their co-conspirators. In short, they are a criminal organization.
Criminal organizations are dealt with with common law, no matter how dangerous they are.
You are stretching laws that are not meant to fight individuals but organized armies and hostile goverments.
What do we need to do so people with thick skulls like you understand the difference between a foreign goverment and army in a declared war and an organized gang of derided individuals?
Was Timothy McVeigh an enemy combatant then? Was the Unabomber an enemy combatant? What about the snipper?
They could be a warrior race living under an absolute dictatorship thirsty for more conquests.
Had Hitler or Stalin prevailed it is not unconceivable that they would have pushed space research much harder in order to make themsleves more popular and to probe that the system they embraced was the right one.
Tenochtitlan, the capital of the Aztec Empire, fell in 1521, 29 years after Columbus first trip.
10 Years later New Spain was a fully stablished colony, with Viceroy, stablished church, etc.
In several places under Spanish dominion Universities were opened and the printing press started to work all this in the 1530s and 1540s.
SO things take time, but not as much as you claim and not in the places where you implied (space exploration is in a completely different ballpark though).
Do you want our first representative in another planetto be a convicted criminal threatened by an inhumane and immoral punishment? In a kamikaze mission?
That would say tons about the civilization sending that explorer.
The character was as cartonish as many we have seen before. Exagarated expressions only possible with animation that no decent actor would like to be associated with.
Human acting is about people confering human emotions. You can confer those emotions equaly powerfully with animation, but that does not make the animatronics (or call it as you wish) a real human actor.
These claims are akin to wanting to award for best actor the puppeters that handle Kermit the frog for a riveting performance.

"I suppose the easy way would be to take two minutes and write a small program"
Ant this is for the most basic of operations.
And then for "Reporting tools don't exist for OODB" the proposed solution is:
"Again, the solution is: write a small program to extract the data you want to report on. "
Which is nicely crowned with:
If you need to do lots of ad-hoc queries against the database, such that writing a program each time isn't reasonable, then your usage pattern suggests an RDBMS is more appropriate.
Which is spelled i-n-f-l-e-x-i-b-l-e.
Finally, in the words of the immortal John Mcenroe, you can not be serious man:
If you need ad-hoc queries you can still use an OODBMS, but you will want to export the data to a relational DB for query purposes.
Head hurts. Who are you? An Oracle representative?

Window manager: app.
File manager: app. of course, last time I checked files were not hardware.
cat: app. naturally.
less: app.
bzip2: app.
Part of the OS? anything that administers hardware (drivers, memory managers, filesystem software, schedulers, etc).
The classic definition works fine, why do you mess up with it?

Put up or shut up.
What is the foreign state for which this person served?
Where is the evidence?
Where do you have the video of his oath?
Can you spell c-o-u-r-t-o-f-l-a-w or do I need you to explain to you where questions like the ones above should be answered?
You have (somehow) all the facts. Nice to know that some people in /. have inside knowledge that is not available to the rest of the populace.
If people fighting for the Taliban have such tenous links to al Qaeda then, answer (dotted lines for you thoughtful answers courtesy of truly yours): ............

An authentic FBI or CIA agent in /.!
He knows the evidence that nobody else in the public has seen!
And he knows sooo much that has already passed judgment!

Rejoice!

It is called terrorism people, get it straight. Find a worthy cause for your ire.
For those inisisting this is a war, write here the entity you are waging war against: _________
And write here the criteria by which you would considered the war over: __________
Did you win the war against Timothy McVeigh and their pals or are they hidden away as POWs? Yuor thoughtful answer here: _________
Name the entity that is in war against the US, please do us a favour and do it.

Quoting from your link
"...Citizens who associate themselves with the military arm of the enemy government,..."
What is the goverment to whose military arm this person is associated?
Again, Jeeez...
What do we need to do so people with thick skulls like you understand the difference between a foreign goverment and army in a declared war and an organized gang of derided individuals?
Was Timothy McVeigh an enemy combatant then?
Was the Unabomber an enemy combatant?
What about the snipper?
Do you get it or do you need a trepanation?
Jeez....
Under the orders of which army is this person?
Which foreign power is waging war against the US?
No matter how much the US goverment hype this up, terrorists are common criminals, not regular armies.
