Developing PHP for 5+ years and you have never heard of Zend Studio? Yes, it is not a "clicky-pointy thing that people who dont really know how to program use", but it is a VERY useful ide. Do you use notepad/vim/emacs?
The fact is that the information IS available to law inforcement, but not to any joe doing a whois. Another thing you're missing is that it is NOT anonymous, but private - there's a huge difference. This means the information exists, but is available to only those that need to know. It's all in the article.
While your opinion is valid, it comes shy of the real issue.
The point of the Intelligence Quotient test is to quantify someone's ability to develop understanding. I think an accurate finding would indeed reflect the intelligence of a person.
However, the tests are flawed. Testing is in a logical, calcuable way in order to arrive at a result. This significally narrows the scope of testing. For example; someone with creative intelligence may not arrive at a solution to a logical question simply because of the abstract nature of a creative thought process. I believe creative intelligence is more of an intuition and is a function of desire and personal will. A musician develops a talent due to his love music, where as a cook does not find mathematics as interesting as leg of lamb. Basically the idea is sound, the measuring device is incomplete. An accurate test would have to find one skill everyone had a genuine common interest in, an ability we ALL have a keen ability in, then measure each ability in that skill. This is not possible, so you settle for a logic test. And we are back where we started.
Which OS is propagating the viruses/trojans/malware? Windows. Which OS does it infect? Windows.
Yes, other oses were attacked - [by windows zombies] - but not compromised, in fact there are very limited examples of exploits propagating through other oses aside from windows [I can find 7 linux viruses, all of which do not propagate nor are effective to any measurable extent].
It is likely in the future that one may find a way to compromise a linux/mac in the same way, but that day has yet to come.
And that is why we question findings that windows is more secure than linux. It is GLARINGLY obvious that this is untrue to anyone sane.
You are correct, the article doesn't mention it, I was thinking of the article from the Boston Globe which does point that out.
And so does this article from Salon. Googling provides many more. No troll, just stating a fact. I didn't say rednecks are stupid, just pointed out this is a major contributor to this issue.
"Third, if the nuclear family is so "stable" why is it that we have a 60% divorce rate, lots of domestic violence, and other seriously family issues in this country?"
Don't forget to also point out that these statistics are also higher in "RED" Bush Country. Here are top offenders - Texas - 5.4 Alaska - 5.5 Washington - 5.6 Mississippi - 5.7 Kentucky - 5.8 Arizona - 5.8 Florida - 5.9 New Mexico - 6.0 Idaho - 6.2 Alabama - 6.2 Indiana - 6.4 Wyoming - 6.5 Tennessee - 6.6 Oklahoma - 6.7 Arkansas - 7.1 Nevada - 9.0
Not anti-Semitic jackass, anti-Zionist. If you listen to Air America radio or other progressive programs, some of the main speakers are Jews. They can't stand the Bush/Sharon policies as well. As an aside, there is a large group of Jews in Israel that can't stand the Zionist policies either. These policies are of the "right", not the Jews.
Understand; not anti-Semitic, but anti-religious crusade - whichever religious agenda, it's wrong to push it on other people. If you know ANYTHING about the Israeli/Palestinian conflict, you know it is pure and simple religious fanaticism. Zionist think the land is bestowed to them by God and will kill all that oppose - in the name of God. Those that stand up to them are "Terrorists".
And I thought people who believe in Jebus were morons. Have you ever read a single thing on the subject you just dismissed? The biggest problem with your thinking is the fact you are thinking in 4 dimensions - this is YOUR reality, not the universe's. You must learn to think beyond your personal scope.
Read this: http://wwwphy.princeton.edu/~steinh/npr/ The Ekpyrotic Universe kinda explains why not only is the "Big Bang" relevant, but how it is simply a small step in the cycle of the universe.
If you had read the article, you would have found out this application was running, in florida, in 2000 - and it was much more than "the 512 votes or whatever for Bush..."
I find it utterly astounding that some (such as the grand-parent) are able to completely ignore facts if it contradicts their impractical idealism.
BTW, his people only *TALK* against drugs, homosexuality, and for peace, and equality, while "take"ing great liberty in their hypocrisy while achieving none of the former.
You know, it's one thing for a rock star to be a drugged out pervert - that's what they tell you they are. It is another to be the highest rated conservative talk show host and a drug addict, or a god fearing bishop and a pedophile. Give me an honest sinner over a hypocrite any day.
Did that, it kinda worked for the geekier, but the others would complain they didn't have time and had just a simple question.
Ultimately, I took the low-tech way out, I created an IT request form they had to manually fill out and deposit in my mail drop - I checked them once or twice a day. It at least makes them TRY to deal with their problems themselves since they hated filling out the form, and the turn around could be a bit. I had the VP send out the an email detailing the protocol so it seemed to be out of my hands. Worked wonders.
Aww, it's ok to murder the unborn - until 3/4 months. Seriously, the argument is a moral one and that is where the fog is. I say it is about clearly defining the beginning of free will. See, you can't murder a born person, because that person has a will that is independently their own. Violating that, violates their free will - or freedom. It can be argued that abortion violates the unborn's free will, but not having that option violates the freedom of the mother - who is a born person with established will. If a fetus cannot survive outside of the womb, that fetus lives according the will of the "host" or mother. Mother's free will over a developing fetus is her own, therefore a mother has the right to deal with that fetus according to her own free will until which time a fetus could conceivable survive outside a mother's womb - and independently establish free will.
Pathetic? That isn't exactly trivial. I would wager you could do many lines of good code without knowing the *terminology* "singly linked list" - especially if you are self taught and never had the need to research it. I do, however believe a decent programmer will often have had to implement the logic without knowing what a "singly linked list" is.
"internets" is a completely valid word and should not be confused with the "Internet". Not in the context in which Bush used it - although, you're right, I should have spelled "internets" as "Internets" when referring to Bush's 'misspokement'.
So, when I was making my funny about W, do you think the reference that W made included the critisims he received on DARPA's "internet" or other private LANs/WANs or just the one we all connect to?
You dolt, it is obvious that W is refering to the Internet that we all connect to, not development or private enviroments. He is just such an idiot that he thinks dissenting websites are individual "internets". Either that escaped you or you were so anxious to share with us what you learned last week in your CS 101 class that you chose to ignore it. Either way, keep your "dolt"s to yourself - dolt.
It's "internets". There's a whole bunch of these magical internets - and only the most powerful people in the country can use them. I am not surprised that you are only becoming familiar with the internets, after all, none of us would have known without W's slip up the other day. Aliens work through W on their internets towards their master plan of total mental slavery of the lazy thinkers.
Wake up America! They're controlling our mind through the internets!!! It's almost as bad as reefer madness!!!! Run for your lives!!!!

Basically because he makes the point Java is portable and c# is not - no matter what the niceties of c# are, it misses this basic feature.

We can readdress this when mono is finished and both languages are on a level playing field, until then, it's a moot point, Java rules.

Reread the post.
Only windows propagates the viruses, and only windows gets them.
No propagating virus etc has been written for *nix. Yet.
No matter your level of objectivity, the FACTS speak loudest.
Ok, I'm responding to an ac, but oh well -

These numbers are from 94/98 and are the latest from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention/National Center for Health Statistics. Rate is reflected in the number of divorces per thousand.
Here is a recent article in the Boston globe comparing Mass. to the red states.
And here is an article focusing on the reasons for the high divorce rate in the Bible belt. Spoiler: Red States are under-educated.
