  1. Re:Imagine the monsters that will come next on First Cloned Human Embryo · · Score: 0

    why does it matter if a few are tossed away, as long as it is done before they can form a brain, it's like buiding a computer and never turning it on, no different, our brain processes with nuerons like a computer uses electrons, there is nothing unethical about this, as long as you don't make a huge number of one person, just because that would eventually end up screwing over the gene pool.

    think of it as a twin and the others as miscarrages, as long as it is not yet centient it is not human.

  3. Re:Women? on Ballmer, Gates on Microsoft's Future · · Score: 0

    it's called evolution, men had to be more intellegent than eachother to survive and get women, wemen didn't need to because men are horny and women arn't(not as much), so the average man has a more advanced brain then the average woman, look at all the great thinkers throughot history, and look at the sex of programmers, mathematicians, and thereticians, there are some women, but definitly not a majority, over time this may level out but i don't see it happening anytime soon.

    better to have a moron in the whitehouse who will listen to his advisors, rather than a tree-hugging libral who only listens to the ones that absolutly cannot hurt his reputation.

    not any code that is written, some is just so that you can work with it better and happens to be job security.

  9. Re:Depends on The Power of Multi-Language Applications · · Score: 0

    i still can't figure out how 2q post right off the news item, so i am posting here, i use a single app if i need it to be distributed outside the use of myself, and other members of my dev team, i use multi-apps when they are faster and more mem efficient and are inside the dev team, just to keep the end user from having to deal with multiple things, especially on windows since it has those annoying sounds people don't normally shut off.

    or maybee the people who survived had kids that never realized that the sky was fairly clouded out because it had always been like that, and with the radiation that this would have produced each generation would have lived a little less, so a single generation might not have seen any major difference in the amount of light in the sky.

    the ion os dosn't seem all that advanced, and we do need overlapping right now, there is definitly a space issue, and hate to say it but windows..even a mac is better than the ion thing.

    whos says we are even lifeforms, i think we are just the decendants of a few 'random' organic molecules combining that happened to have the ability to recreate themselves and the recreations wern't always the same, thus evolution through mutation.

    Does it count as pair programming when you transfer code back and forth with someone on the otherside of the world(litteraly) that you have never met in person before and still manage to accomplish more in an hour on a single module than you could do alone in a day..lol..thats what i do, i am also about to start getting more ppl to work with on prjs so it should be around 4 ppl by the end of the weekend(all of use r like extreme hackers, not like newbie coders, the shit we are doing will b a MAJOR step forward for open-source..u will see when it is done..i don't want to say the idea yet because someone will probably take it and work in a huge group and finish a month or two before us, but trust me, you will notice when it is released.)

  18. Re:Interview? on Quirky Engineers Gone the Way of the Dinosaur? · · Score: 0, Troll

    i have no reson to find a flaw with un-commented code, if you are a good programmer then comments just get in the way and annoy the hell out of you, uncommented code appears more logical and is just easier to read.

  19. Re:Some other choice quotes : on Microsoft Blames the Messengers · · Score: -1

    i think they are just realeasing a bunch of usless patches that just chew up an extra hundred or so mb or space then saying they can't fix it through patches so if you want to be safe you need to buy thier latest version, that has even more security holes, but the fake patches are already made and they are just waiting for people to find them so they can say to buy another version, i meen the whole buffer overflow thing codered exploited, that is something that you can't just have happen accedently..that had to be codded into it.
