MS (their HR department, not recruiters) has cold-called me a few times about open jobs. A few of my friends have been called as well. Personally, I'm not interested in working for them at any price due to their corporate culture that produces a turd like Vista. (I do like some of their research work, though.) Most of the MS-centric people I've known and worked with have mediocre technical skills. I'd guess most of the US citizens that are qualified prefer Linux/FREE software, so they have to go overseas.
I was talking to a girl (not Indian, but foreign, earned a CS PhD in the US) a few months back and that was my impression. She didn't understand the idea of working on a project (like open source) unless their was money involved. She wanted to work in a large company, like an exchangeable part. Are there many Indian/Asian open source (FREE as in not paid) developers?
Then again, maybe she'll have a job when OSS junkies are fired since they'll do it for free.
PNGs have another problem -- gamma correction. If you're using transparency or a white background, it's not a problem, but if you try to mix a png's color with a css/html color, it may be painfully obvious.
For instance, in section #30, validate_cc_number defines a variable as $false = false, but this "variable" never gets changed in the rest of the script. That is what constants are for.
It doesn't sound like it in this case, but if a function returns a value by reference, you would need to put a constant in a variable before returning it.
Let's say your value as a programmer is $50 an hour. Your value as a graphic designer is $25 an hour. You work 40 hours a week doing a mixture of both.
Outsourcing graphic design work would be a good thing for your GDP. Outsourcing both graphic design and programming would be a bad thing for your GDP (Your value as a waiter is only $5 an hour.)
if you're using GCC, you can #include mmintrin.h, xmmintrin.h, or tmmintr.h for c bindings to mmx and sse* instructions. Ooh, and it looks like VC++ (and presumably intel's icc) have builtin support for them as well.
Javascript (and php, vb, etc) gets a bad rap from copy/paste "programmers". You could read the ecma specification and mozilla has adequate documentation, but using google as a tutor is a lot like digging through a septic tank in the hopes someone shit a quarter.
Slashdot Mirror
If Microsoft takes GPL Linux code and secretly incorporates it into Windows 7, who's being leeched from and why?
I wasn't referring to MS employees, rather McDS, VB Monkeys, etc.

When will you start developing it? OSS exists because someone has an itch that needs scratching.
It's also unwise to run a production site on MySQL :p
do you care which port it's plugged into?
You're right. That's there's something very wrong.
"quoted text with $var" is converted to 'quoted' . ' ' . 'text' . ' ' . 'with' . ' ' . $var.

I always check bookpool (and recommend them) but the last few times I've checked, the books I wanted were out of stock.

consider "GDP of our country" vs "total global GDP". That's how.

Despite how much GPL advocates like to talk about FREEdom, proprietary libraries are more FREE in this case.
GPL application linking and using non-GPL libraries: ok.
Non-GPL application using LGPL libraries: ok
Non-GPL application using GPL libraries: not ok.
And the MoFo likes to blame 3rd party extensions for FireFox's memory leaks and instability.
That sample chapter reminds me of second grade.
There's a lot of cool (and powerful) things, but I wonder if there's a book that delves into it.
Firefox/Mozilla/SpiderMonkey have been adding functional Array functions (as have opera and safari).
eg:
[1,2,3,4].map(function(x){ return x * x; }); --> [1,4,9,16]
[1,2,3,4].filter(function(x){return x & 0x01 == 1 }); --> [1,3]
(Of course, implementing themself for ie or older browsers can be done in ~4 lines of code).

Linux sounds like "kleenex".

content libraries, yes. But a lot of that content isn't theirs.
