Would you characterize the GNU GPL, used by more than 70% of all the Free Software which is available to you, as a failure ?
BTW I don't invent he is a genius : In 1990, Stallman was awarded a $240,000 fellowship by the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation, often known as a "genius grant."

Why ?
Because Stallman is a real genius, and they are not !
Just throw away what's inside as well as the eyes and mouth, then cook them for one hour in boiling water, peel them, cut them in 1 cm slices, then eat them cold with olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, olives, spices, salad...
Delicious !!! That's why I like to capture them while snorkeling.
That being said they are really really fascinating and funny creatures. Just for fun try to give them some dead fish in your hand, they will come and take it away from you to eat it in they nest (usually below some rock).
For the first part of your signature, and if we speak about the same work experience, I doubt that many of our old colleagues would say the same since they used our tools every day long without complaining...
For the second part though, don't let some strange scene you saw only once and from which you probably missed the beginning impress you like this. Please call her directly and just ask, or maybe we could talk about this privately in a non-anonymouscowardly way:-)
... that HIV appeared as a natural "evolution" in humans to fight the increasing number of "cancers", and that maybe the actual HIV pandemy is the result of humans actually "adapting" (as usual by letting the unprepared vast majority die and only let a few "super" humans survive) ?
Zope and Plone is the way to go. These tools are RAD for the web, you'll have to learn them, which is hard, but then I guarantee that you'll save LOTS of time !
Slashdot Mirror
> I want to DEVELOP SOFTWARE
/. then ???
Why waste your time on
You should be DEVELOPING SOFWARE instead !
Please just do it, and shut the fuck up.
You may want to learn other people's experiences.
I write Free Software, have PLEASURE doing so, and sell it as well.
All this without any third party keeping 50% of it (modulo the PayPal fees).
Granted this doesn't amount to millions, but it is just a side job, since I've already got a full time job. This works just fine anyway.
The proof here.
Sorry, I meant dictatorship.
Misaligned in reference to what ?
To your soon-to-be (or it-is-already) dictature ?

Just like prisoners in Guantanamo ?
Good job guys !!!
100% agreed !
I had the chance to get a second hand HP2100 with integrated Ethernet + PostScript for 100 Euros. It had only printed 30000 pages.
Needless to say, I'm HAPPY !!!

Do you consider $240,000 a failure ?
Please grow up

Sure, if you want to stay in Utah, you can ask for a job at SCO ?
Well... Hurry up, just in case...
So yummy !

Of course, with skills like yours, as can be seen here http://slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=125892&cid=10
I very much LOVE your comment !
With our marvelous skills how the hell did WE(?) manage to have something which finally worked ?
That is the question...
lol

sucks !
A bunch of stupid ass holes.
and yes, I'm french
Maybe you're right, but who cares ?
Let this bunch of space scientists fight each other on this "very interesting" subject, and let we mere mortals admire what they have done.
Do you really believe space belongs to the USA, China, India, Europe or any other country or continent ?
Let me tell you something : Space doesn't care.

Please read the GPL.
In house projects are NOT considered as redistribution of the code, so you can keep your changes for yourself.

George Walker Bush, is that You ?
Give a look at http://www.zope.org/
You won't regret it !
NB : For what you want to do just use a bare Zope,
no need for CMS addons.

The children will be vaccinated in the form of free licenses for Microsoft's antispyware and antivirus Software for an amount of 750M US$.

More power to you !
Personally, I definitely prefer Gimp's licensing terms.
Since when Mars belongs to a single nation ?
Neither Mars nor Earth belongs to the people who live on it or plan to do so.
