And the United States should be getting involved in internal affairs like this of other countries why exactly?

I think you are getting confused between the Java language and the actual VM that Java runs on. It's the VM that actually performs the bounds checking before allowing a read or a write from the array.
What you are describing is implemented using Terminal Services running Windows Server 2003. It's certainly not a cheap solution but for a medium size business, it is certainly cheaper than the alternative. For smaller companies, the major cost would actually be the licensing and hardware costs. For support, small and even middle size companies will sign a support contract with an IT firm. That's how I make my living.
Odds are that it is their own fault for getting infected. If you keep up to date on your security patches, watch what you download and run anti-spyware software for good measure, odds are that an installation of Windows XP will be pretty safe. And yes, I make my living partly by maintaining medium to large size networks running Microsoft software so my sample size is a bit larger than yours:)
Have you ever used a program written in.NET? I'd challenge you to download Paint.Net and tell me if the performance in unacceptable. Steve Jobs has no fucking clue what he is talking about in that department and it is quite obvious.
If this is the same program that I had at Louisiana Tech as a Computer Science student, he is still licensed to use the software after leaving the university. He just cant reinstall the software after that point, which is not a problem since the company he works for should be paying for that software for him.
That's also true for Visual Studio. I work on projects written in both ASP.NET 1.1 and ASP.NET 2.0 at work. I have to have Visual Studio.NET 2003 and Visual Studio 2005 installed side-by-side.
You do realize that Jabbar Gibson is in jail right now on charges of possesion of drugs with the intent to distribute, right? He also has a very lengthy criminal record.
Of course I think they should have been involved but they should have been involved in 1939. If they had then Hitler would have been stopped before overrunning Europe and Japan wouldn't have attacked Pearl Harbour.
Europe had all the time in the world to deal with Germany before it became a threat. The fact that Germany had been rebuilding its military for the better part of the 1930's was no big secret. Neither is the fact that Hitler was becoming increasingly more hostile to his neighbors during that time period also. And even after all this, Europe continued to have a policy of appeasement towards Germany all the way up through the invasion of Poland. Why should the United States have sent Americans to die to fight a war that Europe wouldnt at the time?
It bugs me when people praise the Americans for "winning" WWII when many countries were there from the beginning and didn't have to wait to get attacked before they stood up to Germany and their allies.
Most of the countries that entered the war in "the beginning" did so because of mutual defense pacts. Germany invades Poland, France and Britain declare war on Germany because of a pact with Poland, then the Soviet Union invades Poland because of the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact. Most of the other European nations remained neutral until they were invaded. And as for the victory of the Allies, it would have been almost impossible without the help of the United States.
It's a coward that runs away when your friends are being attacked.
That never happened considering programs like Lend-Lease and the fact that American pilots were fighting in the Battle of Britain well before the official entry of the United States into the war.
I suspect that if Japan hadn't attacked the U.S. the government would have let the rest of the world fall to Hitler. If that's what it took to get the U.S. to care about what was happening all around them then I'm glad Japan attacked the U.S.
Doubtful. Franklin D. Roosevelt was looking for any excuse he could find to enter the war. With the Germans increasingly preying on American shipping in and out of American waters, he would have eventually gotten his way. And if the United States had not cared about what was happening in Europe at the time, it would not have loaned Britain $1 billion. Accounting for inflation, that is the equivalent of almost $13 billion today.
These comments are about the U.S. government at the time and are not meant to diminish the sacrifices made by millions of Americans after 1941. Since then the U.S. has done a lot of good and should be respected for it but that doesn't mean that in 1939 they didn't make a number of bad choices.
The United States is just fucked no matter what on/. Doesn't matter if it is Iraq or World War II, America can do no right.
Off the top of my head I can think of severals ways around that... modem dial long distance into another country, or buy a T-1 into a neutral country into another neutral country etc etc, you know...
I'm probably just feeding a troll, but there is at least some historical evidence to support a historical Jesus. While there has been some later tampering with the original text, a reference by the Roman historian Josephus in Jewish Antiquities is extremely interesting. Especially so considering that it was written in 94 AD. It's just unfortunate that there isnt any extant texts outside of the New Testament from Jesus' time period. Now what do you have to back your position up?
I also find it funny that I was moderated -1 offtopic on a story that has religion at the very heart of it. So much for open mindedness on/. And no, I'm not new here.
I'm a Christian that has lived in Louisiana his whole life. I also happen to have a good friend and coworker that is a Palestinian Muslim. Would you like to make any more sweeping generalizations?
How this got modded insightful, I have no clue. There is nothing in the Gospels to actually support your assertion. There are many accounts in the Gospels of Jesus hiding from his enemies in a supernatural way when presented with threats to his life. I believe two things about Christ's crucifixion. The first is that Christ died to absolve Christians of their sins so that they can reach Heaven. The other is that Christ chose the timing and circumstances of his death in order to fulfill biblical prophecies about the Messiah. This is why I believe that Christ was not a complete pacifist.

Considering that there is something called magic quotes and such functions as mysql_escape_string(), I'm pretty sure that the developers have some inkling about security. This is pretty much the same situation as in J2EE and ASP.NET. If you perform an ad-hoc query using data supplied by a user, you are going to have to escape that string.

I've been using PHP for a little over 6 years now and I have yet to see what you call an overall lack of quality. About the only complaint that I do have with PHP is some inconsistent naming with some of the functions, but this is something that you easily get used to after a while. I've used it mostly on small to medium size websites, but I've also used it on a couple of large projects. To this day, I have yet to see a security issue crop up in one of my projects in which it wasnt a problem that I created.
This has nothing to do with.NET or Java. I wouldn't necessarily suggest the use of those, either. They have shown, however, that they are far more suitable for serious web development than PHP is.
After that comment, I realize that you are absolutely full of shit. If you wont suggest ASP.NET or J2EE then there really isnt that much left other than mod_perl. And that can turn into a nightmare very quickly if one isnt careful.

There's no such thing as a security hole in a language. If a security hole crops up in a piece of software, the blame falls squarely on the programmer. The only thing a programming language can try to do is include features that will encourage good programming practices.
In my case, I've researched what webservers technically competent companies run. Besides Microsoft and Godaddy, I can't think of one that does. I can think of tons of technically savvy companies that run Apache and Linux/*BSD, and a few that run Solaris. On the other hand, there are a lot of technically un-savvy companies that use Windows.
And there are also a lot of technically un-savvy companies that use Unix too. The truly technologically savvy use the right tool for the right job. And this is coming from a guy that manages webservers running both families of operating systems.
Are you absolutely on crack? I'm a programmer but I also spend a sizable amount of time fixing computers at work. Often this involves installing SP2 to plug holes in the OS. I have probably installed SP2 over 100 times and I have yet to see SP2 thrash a decent hard drive. It sounds to me like you have crap hardware.
