  2. RIP Mr. Ritchie on Dennis Ritchie, Creator of C Programming Language, Passed Away · · Score: 1

    Your book was for years the clearest on C and Unix compared to volumes written by the other "experts".
    May this mark an important milestone for our profession and show us to advance our knowledge without commitments to profit, commercial success or publicity.

    +1 Please mod up.

    This is showing two very different ways to look at the problem. I agree with delegating to another component to handle a system wide error and raise the exception already!
    Stop "optimizing", you've got bigger fish to fry.

    I have a yahoo account as well that has become my primary email with friends and family.
    I love the search where you can filter out into sub-searches and also creating real folders.

    I'm dusting off my gmail account which is used more for Google Apps and You Tube.

    Interesting, did you file that as a suggestion to the java community process?

  12. Re:Isn't this the problem? on Oracle Announces Java SE 7 · · Score: 1

    So you should take 10 years to come up with an improved language designed from scratch?

  18. Re:Next on Nokia Confirms Symbian Is No Longer Open Source · · Score: 1

    That is a good sign indicating the longevity of open source projects vs. commercial "ventures".

    If only my boss could see the benefit of investing more on open source vs. chasing the eternal upgrade race from our vendors.

  19. Re:The real reason people like noSQL... on SQL and NoSQL are Two Sides of the Same Coin · · Score: 2

    You are comparing a query from a transactional system vs. a dimensional one.

    To achieve this you have to extract your transactional data and build the cubes needed for the query. Yes it will take a few hours every night to build the cube but your dimensional queries will be fast, efficient and wont bog down the transactional databases.

  20. Re:The real reason people like noSQL... on SQL and NoSQL are Two Sides of the Same Coin · · Score: 1

    Will a noSQL offer the same SQL properties of transactional databases, with referential integrity, transactions, joins, etc.?

    If so, then it sounds like people just want to change the syntax of how to express sql statements. This will end up into having two query languages which should do the same thing.

    Access? Why?
    Never pick Access as a multi-user db. At least pick SQL Sever Express if you insist on MS.
