The hard question is "What is intelligence?"
No. What was really said was that if RIM has an injucntion against them, they don't legally have to shut down service to governmental employees. It says nothing about whether they will choose to continue servicing governmental employees. Among the reasons not to, it may not be cost effective to provide service to the smaller customer base.
Thing is, slashdot is one place the practice is rampant. Another one is that the slamming has gotten to the point that it shows up quite a bit in Slashdot articles.
The slashdot moderation system is totally broken. It has been since it's inception. If it were scrapped and replaced with a moderation system of (underated|overrated) it could only improve. There's no way to clearly moderate for people who aren't trolling but have no clue what they're talking about, for example, and the current labels are practically meaningless.
If dbhankins isn't serious, then my other reply to his post taking him seriously would mean I fell for his troll...*sigh*, Furthermore, his post without an explanation is feeding the Troll quality of the original post in question *okay*
Really? I was of the opinion that falling for the troll and thinking it was serious fed the troll, but explaining why the post was so bad it's probably a troll kept food from the troll's mouth. Currently scanning Wikipedia articles for the care, feeding, abuse, and starving of trolls.
I never said they were mutually exclusive. I just made a list of elements that fit into the scopes that you mention that people frequently get all mixed up.
It seems to me that there are some actions that don't exist in some of the systems, or are more prominent in one system than in others.
But what I'm interested in, and the point of my parent post, is to foster discussion that would facilitate developments that would lead to perhaps something like the production of perhaps one document that we could all point to and say "Read this and get back to us".
mises.org does an interesting job on Caplitalism, but is a bit lacking on terseness, but what is required is something along the lines of one document covering basic concepts of the areas brought up here.
The use of uncertain terms above is intentional because I'm not certain what would be the most useful, but it is most certainly not the continual slamming of systems for features that aren't a prominet aspect of said system.
Dbhankins has a point, but he failed to mention why it is such a blatant misrepresentation.
Relevant dictionary defintions of capital:
1. Assets available for use in the production of further assets.
2. Wealth in the form of money or property owned by a person or business and human resources of economic value
I don't know what it is, but as far as I can tell, capitalism, it is not. What are people's viewpoints on either side of the issue...
If it's capitalism, please explain why.
If it's not capitalism, please explain why.
If it's something else, please explain why.
If someone has said it is something else, and you think they're wrong, please explain why.
If you disagree with people's expressions of the above, please explain why.
It's time we had this whole capitalism, communism, socialism, democracy, totalitarianism, aristocracy, imperialism thing hashed out once and for all, or at least a good start on it.

By the way, I also have Anonymous Cowards auto-moderated down to -6. and I don't reparent replies to Anonymous Cowards. My limits aren't hard limits, so if an Anonymous Coward replies to someone, I see that there is a post underneath my threshold.
There- I have commented my Anonymous Coward procedure. Feel free to use this as a template for documenting your code. Also see the Lord's Prayer, which has been confused for an actual prayer, but is clearly a template for generating prayers. It was in response to the question "Teach us how to pray" not "Give us the one true prayer".
No, you can have a memory leak of the PC (programmer collection) type in a GC system. You clearly haven't had an experience similar to the QuickBASIC "String space corrupted" error. QuickBASIC is a GC system.
People seem to have confused Memory Access with Memory Allocation. Neither GC nor PC (programmer collected) should allow memory accesses on out-of-scope data. GC just delays when that out-of-scope data gets freed for reallocation. Those unfamiliar with GC and used to the unreallocated = still-accessible-data situation of improper PC coding think that in the GC world unreallocated means still-accessible, which is not necessarily nor usually the case.
The article throws out a bunch of links covering concepts that the writer believes supports the writer's statements. The "controlling access to files and similar resources" links to "Resource Acqisition Is Initialization" which superficially appears similar to BASIC's initializing variables on each entry into scope, and BASIC's a GC language. (I have QuickBASIC in mind, to be more specific). I was confused when writing a TurboPascal program to find garbage in variables until someone explained that TurboPascal doesn't init it's variables. I don't know if TurboPascal is GC or not, but I don't remember explicitly allocating and freeing variables, so I guess so.
Under "safer thread-locking code" we find another RAII article. Again with the next. I wrote the first part of this post, thinking that each link would cover topics that explicitly described the situation involved.
To the best of my knowlege, there is nothing intrinsic to either allocation method that would make those tasks easier or harder in either of them.
He clearly said The World, which as everybody knows is that popular MMORPG. But it's easy to see how one could confuse the USA with it, seeing how President Stonecold resigned and everything!
Besides it's a misuse of the phrase "Microsoft Tax".
Using Microsoft tax for when you have to pay for the software but don't want it is a little bit better, but still doesn't illustrate the tax sense though.
The word "tax", used in the negative sense, has two connotations. One is in the sense, "The power to tax involves the power to destroy" The other is in the sense that when we pay a tax for governance we pay for things that we don't want in addition.
An extremely useful book would cover how a "Microsoft Tax" covers both those aspects.
In Lorain, OH, the library had computers with internet access set aside for kids and only kids (under the age of 12, I believe, and I think they changed it to under 9). They also only had chairs in that area that were comfortable only for small children.
They also had and have a disclaimer that they would not be stand-ins for parents.
Talks with the staff demonstrated that they were unaware that:
1. Children of such an age should not be unaccompanied by adults.
2. Most children of that age cannot read and lack other skills necessary for the utilization of a computer.
3. To the extent that some of the children are school age, they are required by law to be in school for a specified time several times out of the year, during which they cannot use the library computers set aside for them.
4. While adults generally have to have jobs, their job options are flexible enough that a good number of them can be into the library during the time that children of school age have to be in school.
5. People are children of the ages that they have computers set aside for, for a relatively short time of their lives, so the number of patrons that are not in that category vastly outnumber those that are.
On the basis of these facts, I tried to explain to them that dedicating those computers for the use of children was an extremely inefficient use of resources, but they would not hear me out.
They do not appear to have material regarding their computer allocation and policy regarding chld only computers online, so it's hard to speak definitively, but the whole point is to illustrate how those who try to make decistions with kids in mind may have no idea what a kid is, nor remember their own childhood well.

she is saying.
During the Boston harbor situation there were two governments in play: The British and the Massachusetts government. The Boston Tea party was essentially the Massachusetts government confiscating and destroying Tea which was protected by an artificial monopoly granted by the British government. What she ends up saying when viewed in this light is not to throw the modern equivalent of Tea, intellectual property, overboard.
However, it looks like she wants to say that the non-tariff tea is the equivalent of intellectual property, the modern Massachusetts government is the British government, Open Source is the tax stamp and the Boston Tea-party would be thowining open source overboard.
At least not the Windows Interface part. It is completely feasable to have a windows interface with lots of well defined key commands. Autohotkey is a good tool for this sort of thing, and the source is available for free as well.
but it doesn't occur to him that he might have to take the log out of his own eye before he can demonstrate to others where the spinters are.
He just doesn't seem to understand that his conduct is atrocious no matter how many judges tell him so.
His mental illness isn't bad enough for him to be considered "insane" (or at least it wasn't when they had him tested), but he needs to be diagnosed and treated. His behavior goes well beyond that of mere egotism.

Except my idea is that the outcry from the entire customer base would prompt the governments to reconsider the state of affairs.

I merely want a hashing out of which activites belong to which category, all in one place.
