Lying, incompetent, diaper wearing yes men vs the arrogant, irritatingly smart and in-yo'-face engineers.
You know how America gets over this outsourcing thing? By stopping the kneejerk racism and xenophobia and realizing that India is actually huge numbers of smart, educated, and driven competition.
Or you could just move to Detroit and bitch about shitty cars made by incompetent, raw-fish eating yes men.
Well, there is a big gap between the top performers and the average. From the impression I had of Google, there not looking for an Ivy League degree, just raw smarts.
Inkscape is another project that deserves some recognition. These are OSS projects where a small group of competent developers have identified a niche and delivered. I hope it inspires others.
the equation 'standards + IE' is incorrect, you were looking for 'IE - standards'.

The OP stated that it broke several apps. I think you were thinking of how it should work.

MOD PARENT UP!!!
As soon as I saw that picture I almost choked. It's friken retarded and violates MS guidelines to boot. This, people, is the 'inovation' we've all grown to expect from Microsoft....
No. We couldn't live on Mars. Everything is not pretty straightforward. Sorry. We could put a colony on Mars, but it would require huge inputs of energy and equipment. There's a reason no one lives in the Sahara, ya know, and it has oxygen!
And what the hell are you going to do with a brick?
I find it interesting that people are using the word 'sustainable' to describe a possible colony on Mars, when the entire western world is not, at the present time, sustainable.
A UT inta-gib server I spent way to much time on once had a big problem with an idiot with an aimbot. The guy would sit there for hours, racking up 50 kills 0 death type numbers in 2 minutes. My normal response when he showed up was to leave immediately.
Once I tried to get him to stop. After receiving a few 1337 insults, I responded with a post along the lines of "You are obviously a child, fat, with very few friends who gets beaten up a lot." etc. He disconnected, and was much easier to get rid of after that. I felt kind of sorry for the little shit.
Sometimes you see behaviour in online gaming that's so frickin' pointless and dumb, the perps must grow up to be psychopaths. I look forward to a sucsessful system that keeps me from having to see that crap.
At the moment the only game I'm playing is Enemy Territory. The server I play on auto mutes for saying "damn", and usually has a couple of admins with kick privileges playing. This has broader effects than removing TKers and cheaters. It also raises the level of team-play and friendly chat, and I see a lot of dads playing the kids. That makes it more fun for me.
Windows is a very difficult system to fully grasp. The "view from 3000 feet" is cloudy. Windows stopped being a POS a while ago, but statements like this fr om MS people, and the dropped (and limited) feature list for "Vista" lead me to think MS has a problem. Anyone who has every worked on a failed software project can see the signs.
It wouldn't suprise me at this point if they had a few black projects hidden away in Redmond trying to rewrite the whole thing.
Most systems run dhcp as a service, because an ISP only gives them with a time limited lease. My ISP (Telus, whom I hate due to a recent/. story and crap service) only gives them for and hour and cancels it. That's assuming the dhcp servers are up, of course.
One of the lessons learnt in WWII was that targeting factories is almost totally useless. The Allies focused on ball bearing production as a weak point, dropped a gazillion bombs on ball bearing plants, and found out after the war that plants they thought were totally destroyed were up and running a week later.
A fab, or other super high tech factories, would appear to be much more vulnerable. I wonder how this will play out in the wars of the future.
Facts; Israel gets more US military gear than anyone else. Israel regularly wins the US "Top Gun" air force meet. Israel replaces the avionics in their US jets with custom hardware. Israel refuses to sell that tech to the US. Israel fields spies in the US, etc....
Hmmmm, they look pretty independent to me. Maybe you have it backwards....
Most restaurants do have a dishwashing robot. It's called a "dishwashing machine". It eliminates the skilled part of dishwashing, and only needs to be attended by a lowly paid attendant. Unfortunately, the complexity of these machines means they break down regularly, and need to be repaired by expensive technicians. They are also very expensive, making up a good chunk of the capital costs of a restaurant.
"Additionally, we were able to raise the FSB from 133 to 160 MHz without any trouble at all. The result was that our 2.13GHz Pentium M 770 ended up running at 2.56 GHz! At this clock speed, our two year old platform was able to beat the processor heavyweights Athlon 64 FX and Intel Pentium 4 Extreme Edition in all 3D games!
"
At 27 watts max compared to 155. How much was that Athlon 64 FX again?
On that note, I'm suprised that the x86 Tiger isn't floating around yet. (correct me if I'm wrong, I haven't been looking). There are a fair number of developers with the boxes now, one of them must have a roomate with poor judgment...

My point being is that most places are open to some give and take.
Really, you and your family would be happier with you in your perfect job, and that's up to you to get.
It's unknown in the small town I live in now, but I saw lots of sketchy software in Vancouver.

You can get rid of all of them, but of course your system will not be capable of much. Many embedded systems don't run any services to speak of.

"The C Programming Language" is what, 120 pages without the spec? Still, it's a tome alright.
Maybe robots aren't the answer to every problem!
I agree with the above poster. China will dictate its own terms.
I wonder how people with a financial stake in Java app servers feel about Ruby on Rails?

No kidding. You're number 8 on the list, get to work.
