I think you are missing the point. When you put it inside myspace, it subconsously feels like it is still *in* that familiar space. The concepts and the layout are easy to digest, and you don't feel like you ever left your own backyard, so, you're (you being a myspace user) more likely to be willing to go, and you're more likely to stay.
you couldn't possibly be more wrong; money is a resource. In this particular case this resource could have been spent to pay for research, but instead it was used to pay for lawyers (if you like, for the lawyers private expenditures, probably a few boats, etc).
who is going to pay $5000 for a 1.5MP camera? I would gladly pay for it if it had the refocusing ability. So would any sport photographer. Imagine, you can just snap away and focus later! Forget sports, add weddings and any other even semi-critical photography and this becomes extremely useful. Not to mention the fact that many modern digital cameras (*cough* canon *cough*) have a difficult time with focusing accuracy with ultra wide lenses, this is especially true for digital enlargements. So, perfect focus will actually get you a bit of resolution in many cases (where a regular camera misfocuses even slightly)
Also, near-night photography is now possible on digital without a flash in high-ISOs, creating many situations where the only impedement to taking a nice photo is the inability to focus.
In a sense it does matter now because we can't clock any faster because of basic physical constraints, for example the speed of light not being fast enough to travel across the chip in a single clock (which is flippin amazing), so since AMD does more in each cycle they have more room to grow.

ctrl-[ is analternative. I have capslock mapped to control so that makes it easier... I also have tab mapped to the escape (in vim), which makes it even easier =]
Although I agree with the blunt of your comment, your analogies don't quite hold. They are actively hindering a system which was already in place. Its not a passive action.

Or maybe its just Rupert flexing his muscle.

I bet this depends a lot on age..
hundreds is a very low estimate I think..
its not that its stopped, its that 5,000 years is an insignificant spec of time.
/sarcasm
there are many many other reasons to switch to Opera as well.
amen to that, much faster.
I figured noam would be way too busy to browse slashdot
Zope is not python
I think he meant lack of static typing. There has been a lot of talk on the python forums about adding this lately.

Python is one language they actually use quite a bit
