Well since everyone unemployed anyway, older is better, you can sart collecting social security soon, its like unemployment that never runs out... Also you can get AARP discounts.

I guess I can't be trusted, but it seems a good programmer is defined by skill and the ability to always be learning new things, started with FORTRAN on main frame, now I do J2EE web apps, just gotta keep moving and always stay one step ahead.
I wouldn't recomend ANYONE giving a dime to IGS, they'll charge a lot and deliver little, I've had to unF%*k IGS code on a number of occasion, it was really crap, IGS epitomizes all that has gone wrong in the ASP industry.

While it is true that everyone who got hit with SQL slammer is a victim of their own actions because they purchased M$ products in the first, place and they didn't patch it. Seems their have been enough previous M$ security problems that everyone should no better. However the quality if commercial software pretty much sucks, and I think for the good of the industry and those who work in it if their was some impetus to improve quality. Maybe if companies were more concerned about quality then the race to bottom to hire H1-B's, off-shore work, and generally not give a crap about quality would stop. Unfortunately software companies will not be concerned to improve the quality of their products unless their is finacial incentive to do so, so maybe it is about time the users started holding software providers responsible for their products. No other industry has such a lack of standards, and such disregard for quality. Maybe the lawsuit is BS, but hopefully it is a starting point for a greater concern for QA throughout the industry.
Seems like this capability has already existed with java object serialization, this is usually much more compressed than xml and does not require the significant overhead XML has for parsing.
Not quite, you have reference objects, a concurrent garbage collection in the latest VM, but I understand it easiert to slander Java tehn to learn the details of it.

This clearly is a bug of 'Mass Destruction', the only thing a responsible democracy can do is invade Redmond, and pull down Bill Gates statue, Is the 10th infanty div still busy?

So maybe requiring MS to ship the OS with a JVM is a really bad idea! if course their jvm has always sucked anyway, better to get the latest JRE from Sun. I'm sure M$ will blame java rather than their own incompetence for this.

They have achieved there goals:
- US no longer a free country.
- US and Arab world at war.
Seems they have the same goals as George W. We really do need regime change, the regime at home is much more of threat to us than 2 - bit Arab dictators.

Glad to see good 'ol RPI is leading the charge, in 20 years RPI will still be around, will the RIAA?, hope not. Let's all so what we can to starve the parasitic beasts.
Its rad a rad headlamp, weighs nothing, runs 10+ hours on 2 AAA's, perfect for, fixing 'puters, cars, parties, night climbing, cycling, camping etc, I swear by mine, got everyone in my family one for X-mas. No one should be without one of these SRP $30 (not a paid endorsment).

EDS should go out of business, they're incompetent, the only way that got business was schmoozing, they can't code or make stuff work, companies like EDS are what is wrong with this industry.

Just had one of those meetings this morning, more pink slips due G W's oil war, I think we're in for another great depression, read the news it ain't rocket science.

Even if it isn't 100% J2EE compliant, it still works as bean container, and is in general easier to use and way less expensive than the commercial alternatives, there are some of us who like to use java based web platforms, but don't have six figures to spend on it. And if it isn't J2EE compliant, this isn't such a big issue if the points of non-compliance are openly known.
Viva the OSS

Also in vogue back then were nuclear powered aircraft and spacecraft, check any AAAJ journal form mid 50's to early 60's. Fortunatley none of these concepts ever went into production, or airplane accidents would all be there own Chernobyl. Guess it was just wishful thinking.
MM
Why not, is not alcohol present on airplanes, on long flights you could order a vodka to re-fuel you cell, its almost enough to make me want to fly again.
MM
Considering it still cost $2000/kilo to get into LEO, I'm a bit unsure how this will be profitable in the near future. Many existent high grade terrestial deposits are not economically recoverable.

USB is just that, ie., I use a three button M$ brand scroll mouse on my Mac, works perfectly, USB truly is a wonderful technology. MM

Prediction for the adventure in Iraq
- $ Trillion +
- 10 years
- million dead (them and us) ( 50% Iraq 18 years old)
Sounds like fun, hope George W. doesn't get us all killed. Time to get on Hydrogen.
