Yeah, this definitely reminds me of a question on a standardized test I took once. It went something like this: "One scientist performed an experiment and published his results. Another scientist then used his writeup to do the same experiment, but got different results. Why?"
Nevertheless, I expect the routing in large parts of Europe to be very interesting (in the chinese sense, of course) over the coming weekend and early next week
My favorite quote: they begin to recognize different brands by the age of two ("no, mommy, let's go with the Gerber carrots this week?")
It's unfortunate that our kids can choose products based on brand before they know whether they are making statements or asking questions:(
I have to agree with Intel on this one. How would you feel if you spent billions on an ad campaign, and then another company decided to change one word (which, in this case, constitutes half your slogan) and register it as its own? Obviously, Intel and the yoga foundation are not competitors in any sense, but it simply "isn't fair" to piggy-back on the expensive brainwashing Intel's already done. I'm sure Apple would be annoyed with anyone who made " different" their slogan. Of course, Microsoft will never have this problem because its slogans are always some variation of "it just works," which it could never prove in court it has a right to use anyway.
Luckily the boss said only the IDE had to be easy to use;) Don't forget O'Caml. While the learning curve can be steep for those never introduced to functional languages, the garbage collection, object-oriented/functional+imperative style mix, near-C (when natively compiled, portable bytecode by default) speed, type inference (almost never state the type of a variable again), and bindings to both Tk and GTK make for an impressive beast! And it's free (not much of a surprise these days, but still can't be ignored:) While there's a small lack of documentation, the mailing lists (two: a new one started in the past week caters specially to beginners) can fill any gap in your knowledge.
All you've really done when it comes right down to it is flipped a few bits on a server...essentially, all you did was enter a variable in a program, but that variable was planned for.
Uh-oh. I assume that gcc planned for me to type code as well. Guess RMS owns all the software on my computer.

Yawn. I'll be amazed when it can serve up web pages and not get slashdotted.
I always have trouble coming to grips with new technology.
At least you spelled IBM correctly ;)
You do realize that this is considered to be engineering.
Hey! You found an Easter egg!
This just in... not everyone likes Linux! *gasp*

You mean routing can be cute?
I'm sure that if I could read your message, it would be useful.
Sorry, but the word "terrorists" is too long for most Americans to grasp. Try evil doers.

Alex Chiu already has UFOs that can carry people and create crop circles.
