Back in my day, we had to compile the individual files all by ourselves, all the way down to the bit code level. We did this all while looking over our shoulders to avoid being eaten by the dinosaurs who were still hungery after devouring their Jell-O Pudding Pops.
It's such a relief to hear this news. I'm just not myself in the morning until I've had a few cups of coffee and compiled Solaris from the source code.
No, of course we didn't have days. We had to measur our time by grains of sand falling in an hourglass. Of course we didn't have sand yet because all that was laying around was boulders... Come to think about it, we really couldn't measure time at all. So, I wonder if this really was "back in the day," or just earlier this afternoon. I'm so confused now, I need a drink.
Back in my day, we had no money. When we wanted to go into space we couldn't buy ourselves a ticket aboard some "spaceship". We had to build our own rocket (made from wicker of course, until they levied that tax on wicker goods) and then we pushed it uphill both ways in the snow. And we liked it! Bah!
I hardly think Microsoft would want to sponser a mere galaxy. Don't you think they'd rather have the exclusive rights to the "Microsoft universe"? It would be a land where 90% of all computers ran some version of Windows and Bill Gates had more money than we mere mortals could comprehend... Oh wait, that's not the future at all.
I believe Micorsoft has actually given up most of its exclusive rights to C# and has submitted it to a standards committee. This means anyone is free to design a C# compiler. In a year of so we could see a version of gcc that compiles C#. Surprising behavior from M$, but it could really benefit a lot of software designers out there. Hopefully it doesn't get screwed up somewhere along the way.
Back in my day we didn't have these fansy "books" that taught us how to program linux games. We were real men, who coded real code from scratch, for computers which were not real because they hadn't been invented yet by Al Gore. And we liked it! Bah!
You kids have it too easy these days...
In my we didn't have silent hard drives. In fact we didn't have computers. We had to sit there and make our own thrashing sounds if we wanted to simulate swapping. And we liked it! Bah!

Back in my day, we sat there on our porches and appreciated fireflies for what they were: magic.
Now all this new-fangled "science" comes along and messes up the way it should be. Bah!
Wow, I knew that the University of Arizona's astronomy department was world famous, but who would have thought their computer science deaprtment's website would be so informative on the Bootids. Thanks!

I wonder if Scruffy the Wonder Gerbil will be as smooth with the ladies as Bond?
You had Makefiles?

Everyone knows 1.0 releases suck. We should probably wait for at least standards version 1.1, when more of the bugs have been worked out.
