I just have a hard time taking a language seriously that seems to overload integers to do date/time calculations. Everything seems mixed together in true spaghetti fashion, and that, more than anything, turns me off the language and framework entirely.
Agreed, but note that it's rails that adds the date/time functionality, not ruby. While I think it's great that it's *possible* to change the behaviour of core classes, this should be done with extreme restraint, and rails seems to have gone a bit overboard with it.
The way I read it, he's not trying to prove recovery companies are fake, he's trying to prove it's not possible to recover the data in the first place, and people shouldn't destroy perfectly ok drives with grinders, thermite, etc.
None of those 3 companies claims to be able to recover the data. Are there even companies who do claim to be able to do this with any kind of success rate?
Sorry, but I just had to laugh at that translation:
a large toad movement: hundreds of thousands of toads mighty size of a pharmaceutical factory in the vicinity of walking on the road, many vehicles were crushed
Hundreds of thousands of toads the size of factories crushing vehicles? That makes the earthquake seem like a minor inconvenience...
Haha, reminds me of how I got yelled at by an irate "computer-science" teacher ages ago, for breaking a monitor (ie. turning it off with the big red power button on the front)
It reminds me of people who practice martial arts and learn to read when/how someone is going to attack by looking at which muscles are tensing and such.
I'll remember that, next time I'm fighting naked ninja's.
Truely a Slashdot icon. You will be missed.
hint: it's a game, not work.
I call bullshit. Deep sea fish don't have any air/gasses in them, and water doesn't compress.

Aconcagua (Argentina) is higher, and so are quite a lot of other Andes peaks.
Yes, the most likely way to die on a mountain is being blown to bits by nitroglycerine.
God, that movie was awful.
Sorry, I was wrong.
It's not contained in the empty set, it is a subset of the empty set (though obviously not a proper subset)
Except that we do, and it's incomplete.
Now, as to which applies to meatbags, my guess is they're both incomplete and inconsistent.
Did anyone else habitually hover over the pic to see the alt text?

So why wouldn't you just call your cc company and reverse the (follow-up) charges?
According to wikipedia, quite a few languages, including Polish, Slovenian and Serbo-Croatian.
Viruses and prions are not, generally, considered to be alive.
Hey, inflammation wants to be free!

Oooooooouuuuuuuut!

Did anyone else expect that "Misconceptions About Electricity" page to suddenly tell you that you are EDUCATED EVIL?
:P
Still, it was an interesting read.
You mean like 2?
I blame Java courses for people not understanding the difference.
You first have to make a factory for creating bean guns, based on an xml configuration file somewhere.
Personally, I prefer 0/0, since that can be anything, depending from which side you approach it.
