    Being a web Accessibility expert myself.

    placing text into a background is a incorrect.

    Being illiterate does not make you an expert.

  3. Re:The problem is what it pulls in on Where Do I Go Now That Oracle Owns OpenOffice.org? · · Score: 1

    I'm much more worried about MySQL under Oracle's control. Oracle has every reason to make MySQL worse, especially the versions that scale up.

    I would be quite happy to see users moving from MySQL to PostgreSQL.

    And Oracle would not like this at all but who cares?

  4. Re:Open Office a de facto standard? on Where Do I Go Now That Oracle Owns OpenOffice.org? · · Score: 4, Insightful

    OOXML is a documented standard, ISO/IEC 29500.

  5. Learn C. on Which Language To Learn? · · Score: 1

    And no, your "knowledge" of C++ does not count. If anything, knowing what C is will give you an idea what pieces of C++ are from a completely different language with a completely different design.

    Shut up, poser!

  10. Re:More crap from Ted Dziuba. on Taco Bell Programming · · Score: 1

    No.

    "Library-based programming" is among the same diseases as "bug-driven development". A programmer should use libraries because they do what he needs, not because he can't do it and needs someone else to do it for him.

  11. Re:Bad Journalism on In the Face of Android, Why Should Nokia Stick With MeeGo? · · Score: 1

    Judging by obviously inadequate Windows Phone 7 mentioned in it out of the blue, it's from Microsoft.

  12. Re:elements on NASA Strikes Gold and Water On the Moon · · Score: 1

    This is how it is done in Capitalist society. There were plenty of social-economic systems before Capitalism, and there will be plenty of them after.

  13. Re:Citrix XenServer on Recommendations For Home Virtualization? · · Score: 1

    They are Citrix. That's alone is a good reason not to use Xen.

  14. Re:Give VirtualBox a try! on Recommendations For Home Virtualization? · · Score: 0, Troll

    Then don't use Windows as the host OS -- it belongs in a padded cell that virtualization provides.

    Photoshop performance is exactly the same in and out of VM.

    Investment is just as worthless as money, as far as development and survival of mankind is concerned.

    I don't think, you understand sarcasm.

    Because the only thing that is valuable is green paper printed on Earth.

    You are still either a liar, a moron or both.

  19. Re:Good on Desktop Linux Is Dead · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    I never understood the desire to push Linux into the mainstream. It would just make it a greater target for the virus writers.

    You are stupid, and you should be ashamed of it.

    If you claim that you have t send clients documents in an editable format (that is, not PDF), you are either a moron or a liar.
    If you claim that "thought to be internal-only" documents can ever be sent to anyone outside in an editable format, you are a liar.

    And I have found that sledgehammer is the best tool for breaking your own skull.

    The problem is, I have no intention of breaking my skull.

    On top of that you have an army of buzzword bingo players, sorry recruiters, that will not accept a CV in anything but MSF Word

    Recruiters are useless, and the only reason they demand CV in MS Word is so they can strip your name and contact information from it before sending it to every employer they know.

    University degree trumps all certifications, and plenty of Linux developers and sysadmins graduated from universities.

    That's because you are running X11 version of it on Windows.

  25. Re:Open office != MS Office on Why Microsoft Is So Scared of OpenOffice · · Score: 1

    Actually yes it is, and your tone is misplaced. Photoshop is only popular because this is what was taught in "digital art" courses.
