There absolutely was no "one true path" in that game.
And that was one of my biggest problems with Civ.. no two games are alike. A strategy that worked well in one game may be disastrous in the next, even with the exact same starting conditions. Which means it's essentially gambling. Worse, the risks and odds are unknown at the start. Are you on an island? Who will the other leaders be? What resources will you discover, and will you be able to incorporate them in your existing strategy or modify your strategy in time? In most cases a strategy shift is unworkable, meaning you have to start over or load a previous save, except as we said, you can't play the same game twice.
It's all well and good for people who enjoy gambling with unknown odds, and I understand why that's addicting for some, but it's not my cup of tea, and I take no personal satisfaction in winning through chance. It's possible that what appear to be random events are actually determinate, but I have neither the time nor the inclination to spend weeks or months sorting the two.
I agree that it *should* be that way, but the debate regarding text vs. intent is alive and well in judicial circles, including (and especially) in the USSC.
Sounds like the law is basically there to stop people from posing as federal agents.
While that's undoubtedly the intent, the text doesn't say that at all. It's as if you (and the mods) either didn't bother to read what you quoted, or else got lost in the commas.
What you are describing is not programming; it's web design and database administration. They may contain elements of programming, and they're both (typically) done on computers, but they're generally regarded as separate skill sets these days.
Yeah, stupid socialism. It doesn't work anywhere except everywhere except America. Oh, and here too, but not for health care or higher education. Socialism is only for the Department of War^wDefense, Libraries, and the Fire Department. Everything else is slavery. I mean servitude. It's confusing because I'm talking about slavery, but using the word servitude because slavery has these negative connotations which are directly attributable to unregulated socialism. I mean capitalism.
It's not about ripple effects, it's about supply and demand. It's not that janitors are unimportant; it's that pretty much any able-bodied individual can do the job.
The programmers determined that not only was their skillset in short supply, but that they were capable of doing both their job AND their bosses' job, so they struck out on their own. All indications are that they made the right decision.
This presentation is actually from 2008 (as indicated by every single slide in the PDF -- and thanks for the PDF warning, BTW). Aside from being old, is there any indication that it's still true?
All tools are bound to the OS, in that they *all* require OS-specific interfaces, even if those interfaces have already been abstracted for a variety of OSes. You don't see Apple writing implementations of the Cocoa API for Windows. Qt went years without officially supporting Windows, and before that, the Windows port of the GPL'd portions of Qt was slipshod at best.
Singling out Microsoft's.NET framework is absurd, and with available source code and the Mono Project implementation of.NET for Linux and OS X, almost irrelevant. There's a lot of things MS does poorly;.NET is a notable exception.
It's not so much that technical expertise is a barrier to entry, but rather it's perceived as a barrier. It's actually dead simple to jailbreak with redsnow, and only mildly more involved (though not at all difficult) to do it with pwnagetool + iTunes.
Fortunately, the perception of idiots keeps the price for JB & unlocked iPhones quite high on eBay.
I'm firmly in the "if it can fit in a backpack, it's not a computer" camp, and now you know what it was like for us to deal with all the stories about retarded netbooks for years on end.
I realize the hardware is extremely low end, but I'm still having trouble swallowing the $35 price tag. $150 I might believe, but $35 is just ridiculous. You can't get a 5" LCD from China for $35, let alone the rest of the components + assembly.
Also, did anyone else notice that the Indian human resources development minister bears an uncanny resemblance to Pope Benedict?

Something's very wrong when WoW has a more restrictive user agreement than the NYSE.

So the difference is whether or not you live beyond your means?
There's more to life than just money alone.
There sure is. There's plasma screens, game consoles, muscle cars, hookers, and blow.

If you mean standstill in the sense that nobody will be downloading it, then I agree.
You can go into the past, but you can't come back and/or die.
Where do I sign up?
Clearly they're hoping that saying it enough will make it true.

And this is an attempt to kill science once and for all.
Nice appeal to emotion there Chicken Little, but you're giving these folks *way* too much credit.
I'll write as much procedural code as you want, but I won't support a line of it.
Fixed that for you.
The Archimede plant has...more than 3 miles of piping for the molten salt.
Jeeze.. want some FRIES with that salt?!?
I'm half feather half dot, you insensitive clod.
