Like it or not, in 10+ years from now most (if not all) applications will be written in either Java,.NET or a similar Framework/Language. C/C++ will only be used where bit-banging stuff is needed AND NO ONE will care about except a few grumpy old man...
... I would give this guy research lab and resources to create java-based DirectX library. For game developers, it would be just great to write once and sell on Windows on Linux on Mac on Playstation (don't know about XBox). Even without Sun's support, it would be great fot 3rd party to sell such engine/framework.
You'd have to give it away for free to make *anyone* throw away their well-tested-and-working C++ engines for a Java Version. No matter how fast it is, the java=slow paradigm is burned to deep into to many developer heads out there...
Wouldn't it be funny if.Net (with Mono) actually delivered on the promise of Java? That is to say, bringing software to the Linux platform from traditional MS developers?
it probably would, but as long most.net apps (or at least most of the apps I was tricked to fix) look like

The fact is that "Joe User" is not as stupid as we imagine, he just has other things on his plate, but he still wants all his web apps to work.
Agreed, he wants his web app to work and if it worked in IE6 and will work in IE7 he'll be pleased. So if IE7 is just as fucked up as IE6 is, he won't n notice if its standard compilant or not.
Joe Average User doesn't care about W3C standards, he cares about tabs, nice guis, phishing and virus warnings (but not too many, and not while browseing his favorite p0rn sites). Some web developers care about standards, but unfortunatly nobody is going to ask them.

Sorry, I'm confused, were we talking about 70th style Basic hacking or 90th style Windows programing?
Windows 2/3 was popular when we were leeching warez from bbs and you were sitting in diapers. This wont have bill gates worrying...
What? You mean that Windows2 thing we needed to use to start Aldus Pagemaker was actually an operating system?

f you use either if (is_null($test)) or if ($test === null) instead of if ($test == null) you get the expected results.
I know, the point is, the initial design was flawed, but instead of fixing it, they introduced kludges like "is_null()" or the "===" operator. Thats not exactly what I would call "easy to learn".

Now I'll know who to call next time my car gets stuck in the snow this winter.
Good luck, but keep the following in mind before calling this guys: 4 hours after your call you'll be called back an instructed to turn 30 4 hours later you'll be instructed to drive back slowy for 1.5 minutes [...]
I bought one when OSX came out, it was a nice machine and fun to play around with, but it also was to sluggish to switch my development enviroment over to it. The turnaround times where just to high.

No, because passing the acid test, breaks
