If I see this stacktrace once more I'm gonna explode!
Useless error messages like that made me hate CORBA. Yeah, I know: "look at your classpath". But when you have an appserver that plays random() with your nicely packaged, clean EAR, it's just... not nice.
One last advice: SUN Appserver 8.0.1 - keep your fingers off and RUN! 7.1 and 8.1 seem to be fine, though.
What we need to accept, in reality, is that being 1) willing and 2) able does not make you 3) ready.
That is fact.
Correct.
We can't change (1) and (2) so we should make them ready (3).
Birth control is a boon for mature, ready couples
No.
I've had sex with my girlfriend (now wife, we have 1 kid) when we were 13 and 14 years old. I don't want to withhold this great experience to any teen just because the society is not willing to accept teen sex as a matter of fact and thus avoids its responsibility to give them proper sex education and properly tell them about the responsibility and consequences of having sex.
My uncle owned a Wartburg 353 back in the GDR. It was a brand new red thing and one of the better cars you could get then. My family was separated after WW2 so a sister of my grandma lived in West Germany, while we lived in East Germany. She was permitted to visit her sister on birthdays. But after the years she couldn't manage to get there by train. So my uncle was permitted to drive her to West Germany with is car - that was absolutely exceptional! So he drove on the western Autobahn when a Mercedes Benz crashed slightly into his car. The owner was hysterical as he thought he crashed an Oldtimer. He gave my uncle some big bucks (with valuta you could buy half the town in the GDR;) ) and vanished, being relieved not to bother some insurance. My uncle never got the grinning out of his face;)!

Is Bluetooth Dead?

Bluetooth is not about GBit WiFi for computers;). It's about cheap, tiny, power-saving chips for gadgets.
I can't imagine WiFi in my mobile phone or even wireless headset.
Wired headsets are outdated and a danger in traffic.
You don't understand: It was not allowed to simply renumber the lines (of course I had a tool for that). e.g. 100 SomeOldStatements 200 SomeOldStatements
I had the "opportunity" to help out in a COBOL project. It was a pain in the ass. No Design, no reusability, no SE at all.
The craziest thing I had to do came in the end: re-number the changed lines (of course there was a 80 year old specification for this: the step was 100, but changes had to be numbered from 50, so i.e. the original lines were 100, 200... and the lines I inserted had to be numbered 150, 151...) and tag them with change-flags! They had something like a CVS but they only used it to check in stuff... CVS-diff apparently was something they didn't have 120 years ago so they don't use it either...
I grew older and dumber every day. Oh how I longed for my OO-languages, design, interfaces, tools!
I am glad to be back in the project with the freaky, learning-resistant customer now;-)
COBOL is not a bad language, but the dinosours` lack of software engineering makes it hard to maintain so they're still needed. My advice: throw away all those mainframe-ruins and redesign with the help of the dinos as long as you can!

Cornell: 'The open-sourcing of Java will have no effect whatsoever on Java's slow decline in favor of dynamic languages (Ruby, Python) and C#';
In 2007, apples still won't be oranges.
It's not a sensor array, it's just LEDs emitting infrared light.
The sensor is in the Wiimote.

No, as it's only useful in Germany because of the (AFAIK) Germany-only homebanking protocol HBCI.

This is just a troll.
If this is all it takes to get a dev-article to /., I'll just dump my everyday work here and become the uber-geek ;-).
You don't understand:
It was not allowed to simply renumber the lines (of course I had a tool for that).
e.g.
100 SomeOldStatements
200 SomeOldStatements
now
100 SomeOldStatements
MyNewStuff
MyNewStuff
MyNewStuff
200 SomeOldStatements
I had to renumber it to:
100 SomeOldStatements
150 MyNewStuff
151 MyNewStuff
152 MyNewStuff
200 SomeOldStatements
And it got even more funny when there were more than 50 lines inserted...

Apologies for my subtle english =)
@ 140 h.p. .... fun as hell!
...debugging a Beta-smartcard driver for Windows CE and "hacking" it so it works with particular smartcards it wasn't capable of until then =).
