Haha, you ever deal with java source code done in a hurry?
My example was just that java can be bad as well as any other language, not that it has to be. But people say "scripting always makes bad code!" when that isn't true, and the converse "non scripting languages always have good, clean code!" when that isn't true either.
Learn to read and interpret dude, seriously. Some wack-o java defender? If you like it go for it.
Check out this protector. Damn. I know what I'm getting for my next iPod. The current one I have, which looks like a giant condom, works well enough for now.
Huh? Mine was scratched after 5 minutes. I've gone through 2 iPod minis already and my current one is happily protected by a cover, and hasn't gotten scratched. The other ones are way scratched. The beautiful brushed aluminum(bring it back to the video iPod's apple!!) is scratched, the screen is scratched. I still love my iPod mini too, it sure as hell doesn't break when it falls, but it does get scratched.
The first time I got an iPod, it got scratched, quickly. I got a cover and haven't had a problem since. Stuff gets scratched, fact of life. My Laptop is scratched. My phone is scratched. My glasses are scratched. My car is scratched. My chair is scratched. Hell, if you want it to not get scratched, get some protection for it and watch how you handle it. Common sense. Don't eat lots of high-caloric food, you don't get fat, don't have a cover on your iPod? It gets scratched.
Whine-whine-whine. Resin is there to prevent scratching during shipping and any remaining is there out of kindness.
Then don't code in the presentation layer. It's not where it belongs anyways, most larger php projects are separated, and any competent programmer will separate it anyways. Yeah, you can do bad code in PHP, but you can do it in other languages. See Obfuscated C contest. Or java's famous: string.operand(string.toUpper(blah.toBlah(blah.mak eDisappear(blah.makeRandomText(crap)))));
Don't tell me that's easier to understand than badly written PHP. But no, you don't have to code in the presentation layer, and we enforce that where I work.
Mind you, the incoming line is, in the end, optional. And you can add money to your voipjet acct whenever you feel like it. Yes, it requires a unix server, but seriously, on Slashdot, if you don't have one, you must be new.
Insightful? How. Anything can cause damage one way or another.
But a poisonous snake bite from a person will easily kill them. A bite from a bunny rabbit, or even a dangerous dog won't. Dangerous dogs have a higher chance, but not as high as poisonous snakes.
Alligators can easily grow large enough to over power a person, most bunnies can't, even though they can annoy you slightly.
I think a dangerous animal is one that will, most of the time, overpower the human or kill the human easily.
Even large dogs can be controlled, if you know how, and they aren't specifically trained to kill. Seriously, most harm from dogs after the initial attack comes from the fear the human is giving. (Scared of a pit bull? Most people are. Did you know they only account for 1.7% of all bites and attacks on people, and are number 3 from the bottom of most dangerous dogs? But, it's the fear that drives them to attack, they look ferocious, key word: look).
So no, unless it's a poisonous cat, it's not actually dangerous, nor is the bunny rabbit, and nor is most dogs. People get hurt. It happens all the time! Do you consider your car dangerous, because you can slam your hand in the door? Because you can step out into a pothole and twist your ankle? Even your finger can get tired from pushing the radio buttons. Is that dangerous to you?
People get hurt, it's a fact, animals are dangerous when they have a good chance of overpowering a person or killing a person quite easily.
Ever try AIM on windows? Yeah, like if you could take functionality out of a program and still somehow use it, you know, with ads too. Not to mention it doesn't help that I have 3 AIM names(Work, Other Work, Personal), 2 Yahoo(Work, Personal), and can log into my google talk account.
Rather stable too, with the same memory leaks GTK seems to be plagued with. All that means is restart it at least once a day and you're fine. Some say every couple of days, but I always turn my computer off at night anyways.
Nope. Try again. There's lots of high quality studios out there. My sister is halfway through a CD she and some friends are producing, and only two of them work. Connections will get you further than money. The only studios that are expensive are the big, high quality(and by high quality I mean if you can't sing the machine will compensate) studios that only deal with the record labels.
Consulting maxim: You have no job security, even if you think you do
From what I've seen, this is getting to be pretty equal in a salaried/hourly job as well. I've seen projects set back months because someone copped an attitude with the wrong person. Not to mention a highly paid consultant can get the project back on track, and for less than your annual salary in most cases. Not always true(well, really, it is, but people want to think it's not)
The Last Battles before their dying industry practices are all but useless.
Fight, or change? They've chosen Fight. And who can blame them? Change means less revenue. But Change, as we have always found out, is inevitable.
Even in the VoIP world with the FCC trying to pass new regulations to limit VoIP, some VoIP providers are going out there and becoming CLECs, and still continuing down that road. Change is inevitable, but you have to put up with the previous industry people's last battles.
Such as the book Destructive Emotions(No, not an affiliate link, you can click on it).
There's thousands of years of research out there, and no, it doesn't have to be a religious change, and hell, you don't even have to call yourself one.
Despite the name, this is actually a good, easy to use water cooling solution. I set it up without any prior experience in about an hour, and have been using it every since. I don't OC, not often, but I do OC my ATI card quite a bit. My computer has no fans now(got a fanless PSU) and I've had no problems so far, for almost a year now(had to add a 1/4 cup of water once, but that's expected).
You can't simply look at the numbers, imagine 2 vulnerabilities:
Browser A has a vulnerability, it opens access to a virus or spyware to enter your computer and get all your information while selling your children into slavery.
Browser B has a vulnerability that hides the true url you're looking at, but makes it look funky as hell.
Browser A get an update 6 months down the road that fixes this problem.
Browser B is fixed by an immediate change to the configuration, and an updated version is issued disabling that featureset. Then, shortly after, another new version is available, with that featureset back on.
These are hypothetical, IE doesn't really sell your children into slavery. =) And I doubt my FF history is correct. But what's worse? A problem where your car explodes when driving down the "wrong street" or your seatbelt being a little sticky? Both count as 1 problem, and thus looking at numbers becomes flawed.
Firefox finds the problems and tries to fix them asap, with 1.5 it has automatic updates and binary patching, hell yeah. IE has delayed some problems until IE7, period. FF is actively finding and fixing probs, IE fixes major ones and pushes others to the back of the line.
And that UI guy was right, Security doesn't interest non-programmers really. It's something to consider, especially in business/corporate enviroments, but "by the numbers" is really just asking to get yourself screwed.
Our food supply will change, probably back to a more vegetarian diet before meat became another mass produced commodity. If anything it'll be an expensive delicacy. It's easy to grow most edible plants, and it takes hundreds of pounds of that plan to make a pound of meat, but we could eat those hundreds of pounds ourselves, and everything works. Cows will have a hard time living in the snow, but maybe you prefer mountain goat?;)
"abuses hyperlinking to artificially inflate search engine rankings."
And who's fault is this? You've obviously pointed out a flaw in the search engine algorithms, but not one in the bloggers. Maybe you mean "Google should go"?
I've been running Deer Park Alpha 2 recently with no problems(SVG is kinda funky, but works great, and with the field testing it should be much better).
I hope SVG integrates with XUL ok. Gotta test out my XUL apps I have in the field for compatability too.
It can also take output from the firewire port, with nothing hooked up to the headphone port. Of course this means the car would do all the amplifying. There is a connector to your multi-cd port on the back of your stereo for this, and some cars are coming pre-built with it(as is my understanding, as my money does not permit me to buy one of those cars, yet...)
