Stalin and Mao were in charge of Totalitarian regimes, with a Command Economy.
christ, neither shot was close to the goal.
The idea of a dictator was a brainfart by Lenin who got tired of the proles not rising up on their own. he decided that they needed to be led, and that they would never become self aware.
Lenin started the damn "communism needs a dictator" thing, and its been screwed up since then.
you will notice that the changes in economic system correspond almost directly with political system.
from agri-communism to feudalism through the industrial revolution, each has been marked with a change in political structure.
economics and politics go hand in hand.
marx has predicted that those who control the means of production will gain so much power as to take over the government functions. it is a result of this consolidation and abuse of power that causes the underclass to rise up and grab the power back.
this is akin to the workers unionization after the industrial revolution. the workers were abused by the industrialists, and in response rose up against their oppressors in the form of unions, and demanded fair compensation etc.
notice that this is also the time when more widespread voting power came about - universal suffrage. women, mostly at this point.
nah - the drugging helps the brainwashing... keeps them off balance,.... say - would you like some kool-aid?
does "speed" really concern you that much?

christ man - how eff'ing fast do you need to get through code? it really affects your productivity if you have to look up their type?
geezus - i've used hungarian notation, and the only thing it has done for me, is to slow me down because the variable names didnt make sense in context.
even MSFT doesnt suggest using hungarian notation anymore.
i mean - whats wrong with looking at the declarations section and then popping back to the line your looking at?
the california districts are not nearly as influential as teh texas ISD's.
Also, most publishing houses will not go through the extra expense of publishing different version - so, they give the manuscripts to their biggest customers, and have them review it.
christ, its only been since 1991 that texas has required teh teaching of evolution.
I stand by my statement: the Texas ISD's are the single most influential force in textbook publishing today. They are far more organized, and have far greater buying power than any other entity.
the "extreme liberal" crap is a bogeyman - just because some of us want crazy ideas like "evolution" and "environmentalism" doesnt make us extremists, just well grounded in reality.
because the publishers cater to the crazy ass Bible Thumping-Idiots that run the powerful Texas ISD's.
its amazing the review process, and how much insanity is included because of the low-life texas fundamentalist christian idiots that review and influence the publishing process.
i gotta be honest with ya - this kid is going to get a visit from uncle sam, but most likely it will be one of those: "Hello Kind Sir, We will pay you, and provide you anything you want, please come help us blow people up." Kindof a conversation... Come join the family, Poppy takes good care of his family.

bash is "object'ish" - the thing is that the objects are called "programs", and they have "standard interfaces" called STDIN and STDOUT, etc...
as for a scripting language that is "objectish" - the closest thing isnt perl, its python...

You *can* infact re-sell used books.
You *can* infact re-sell used CD's.
and you sure as hell, can resell a real-world tool, like a hammer, or whatever this gettin'jiggy-with-it thing is.
you can not reproduce copyrighted works, and sell those derivatives.
this manufacturer doesnt have a legal leg to stand on.
i like my coffee like i like my women:
tied to the back of a donkey and brought to me by a man named Juan.
try, since the civil war.
yes, i can see how only doing a mere 81.19B in revenue could be considerred small...
i mean - msft's revenue crushes IBM, at a whopping 32.19B.
oh wait, back up, reverse that... IBM does nearly 3x the revenue of MSFT.
IBM is *the* big boy... and they've been itching to pay msft back for a while now...
oh come on, i've seen wild packs of dogs attack orchards...
seriously dude - switch to verizon... much, much, much better coverage.
second after verizon is at&t wireless. though they have a huge dead zone on the PA TPKE NE Ext.
and cingular is just crap.
the only place i've had problems with verizon around philly is in PennDel.
Other than that, instant strong signal everywhere.
shoulda gone with verizon :-) very very very good signal around philly.
the only thing worse than sprint around here is cingular. i've got a friend who cant get a signal from KoP thru phoenixille.
welcome to corporate america.
did you put the new cover sheet on your TPS report?
let me get you a copy of the memo?

except that, with cable deregulation, prices have actually gone UP for everyone involved.
bah - bring back regulation.

ya know why our kids textbooks are so bad?
because the publishers cater to the crazy ass Bible Thumping-Idiots that run the powerful Texas ISD's.

nah, back then they would have haxorizedf the entire message, asnd then gone on to flame people for 20 more messages...
not a big deal... though, i must say - that most of this articles discussion is quite amusing to me.
some many people... so few clues...
which, given todays processing power, is what?
seriously, some kid probably did a shitload of interpreting declassified texts, and drawing some pretty astounding conclusions on his own.
it is a little easier to do when you know that the target is doable, and repeatable.
but, its still an amazing feat.

yeh, your missing it:
some 18 year old kid was able to do it.
thats pretty f'in impressive...
of course, arguing with an engineer at one of the companies in questions is always a bad idea :-)
