Oh, I am sure there are exceptions, no question about that. I have not read the book, so I cannot comment on it but someone else in this thread made a great point that parenting actually starts on a day child was born - 270 days. I'd have to follow up on that though - the only way to succeed is to understand from the beginning that children aren't the only ones who need to be taught, we must learn along the way too, perhaps even harder. If we all did, "there may be a few exceptions" would not sound as a huge understatement.
Parenthood is possibly the trickiest business people can get themselves into. Even harder than convincing my boss how we need to switch more desktops to Linux. ASAP.:o)
I am a parent (x 2), too and I call bullshit. Sure, there are influences coming from everywhere - school, neighborhood, good kids, bad kids, movies, politicians, games, Internet, TV, you name it. But if we (parents) fail to build trust and respect with our children to the point where children get 'raised' by any of the above, we have miserably failed and we are the ones to take full responsibility to whatever bad thing happens as a consequence.
Agree. It is beyond me to see people all over the place still, after all these years, falling for this sort of stuff. I am finally convinced that the only reason we haven't seen mass migration from Windows is collective stupidity on a PHB level. Ignorant fuckwits who are not good enough to ever move up the ladder and certainly not smart enough to leave technology to professionals and trust their expertise.
This got me into thinking, too - with posts like this, rogue states will quickly realise they can save some of that computing power just by leaving slashdot alone.
I don't consider Richard Stallman genius due to what he said in this and his other articles or essays. He has done more than you suggest being a genius - Richard Stallman did not find new reality, he created one.
The way he fights for what he believes in is just another reason to admire him and his work even more.
Basis are articles, news, whitepapers I came across since 2002. Morgan Stanley, Credit Suiss First Boston, Chicago Merc. Exchange, Central Bank of India, New Zealand Stock Exchange (this one is not RH customer but they are running RH)... None of them used Windows, of course, all Unix, most Solaris.
Well, it has ousted Sun from pretty much all of the big financial organisations and is making inroads elsewhere but not necessarily 'attacking' Windows. It will be long and hard battle in all places that have Windows AD installed - there still isn't open-source replacement for it out there. Hopefully, samba 4 will give us leverage on that end as well.
I personally can't make much sense in using commercial distros for replacing Windows in a small / medium enterprise market - much easier to sell is free (as in beer) OS. Plus, FC3 does the job well on a server and on a client side - it's been rock solid for my needs (file, print, squid, email mostly).
I just have to post one that's even more offtopic - heard it on Billy Connolly's TV show:
Guy goes to doctor and tells him: "Doc, I think I'm a moth." Doctor looks at him carefully and says: " You know what, that's quite possible but I may not be the best person to talk with about this problem. You see, I am only GP - you probably need to talk to psychiatrist." "Sure", says guy "I was on my way to him when I saw a light is on in your office."
Exactly. These people are sourcing some nice research grants because their theories sound intriguing to dorks who approve funding. 200K here, 300K there and they are sweet as.
I don't really know how hot this issue is in Holand but let's asume it is. Very hot. We have a situation where parliament suggests a motion, govt declares support but due to possible 'games' on the EU level, they are forced to ignore the motion.
Can this be heavy enough reason for parliament to oust the cabinet and is there a mechanism in Holand constitution to vote governmet out just on motion grounds?
Funny, indeed. However, there's a tipping point where you just can't handle all that beer. I experienced this myself, did a bit of thinking and implemented Free (as in speech) as well. Most of those people needed capability to only do ordinary stuff with PCs, so I suggested Linux, if they still wanted to call me for help and get that help for free. Most of them were happy to do it and they still are.

No. It hurts only after you tested positive.
Since I am not American and this is not international award, I'd accept green card instead.

It may return slightly lower number of results if search criteria is "error.log".

And yet, you find a time to post here. What a royally-sized asshole you are.

That's what he always does. Love Stallman or hate him, man is a genius.
Talking about headline - my heart almost stopped when I saw it. Not CowboyNeil (in coffin)!!!
Apparently, yes. For the full paper you need to register though.

Nope, this is what's in the air.
Says Oracle :o)

What is the point of parliamentary democracy then?
Didn't you mean SHOULD NOT be allowed to mix?
Hard in today's world, I know but unfortunatelly that's how it is.
No, bash is too slow for this - I use this firewall rule:
$IPTABLES -A INPUT -i any -p hammer --state BLOW -j DROP
Oh, the irony!
What if he isn't old enough?
I am too - almost no calls anymore.
