I'd adhere to the advice and just ignore the job part.
However, if you want to teach the child about computers and programming, try a stealthier approach: Winnie the Pooh, Little Prince by Saint Exupery.. the more abstract stuff to get her thinking right (or left really, I suppose).
If you decide to write one, don't write about a programmer, write of a generic scientist/intellectual. Oh, and you must read Stephenson's "Diamond Age".
Since everyone seems to have given more or less commercial-feeling suggestions, try Trac. It's a decent project-management system with a Wiki, implemented in Python running off CGI. It's mainly intended for actual PMS, but seems to work well for a support job too.
Actually, the idea of reinstating the draft was supposedly first entered as a measure to reduce the willingness of the public to go to war, for which it'd certainly work. The downside, of course, is that you might actually have to go.
Just for a second I really really wished that we had a fully libertarian existence. Would teach you to think thoughts beyond your capacity; you're in the dangerous group that has logical thought processes enough to be dangerous but not enough to truly understand.
'Libertarianism' is just a rationalization of "Me! Me!".
I started taking that test and gave up on the 3rd page. Almost every question is phrased as a false dilemma and has an obvious left slant. It is apparerently intended to make you believe you are a liberal.
Not entirely true. The questions are phrased a certain way, yes. It makes it easier to discern the 'true nature' of the respondent via some simple psychological arithmetic.
Bah, campaign contrib info is useless, they're all crooks:)
A good, fast way to get one's bearings with the candidates is at OnTheIssues (go to Quizzes->Presidential 2004).
It's a fairly comprehensive general quiz on your preferences on common political issues, and it matches you with (and allows you to compare) the answers of the candidates (yep, even Peroutka).
The biggest bonus are the excellent explanations and background information for each question -just click on the link and there's a rundown on the issue. In some cases it's imperative to read the description to be able to pick the right choice. The only drawback is that some of the info is a bit outdated (particularly the Iraq situation), but it's still an excellent resource for the political novice.
That should give you a place to start from; once you get your bearings it'll be easier to get information. Wikipedia is a good extra resource on those issues, if one is needed.
APR saves one from quite a few headaches, but it's a large framework and takes time to learn. I really wish they'd just implemented it with a POSIX interface.
One thing APR is not good for is interaction with other compatibility frameworks: I've been hacking together a Ruby API for Subversion VCS and it's been a bit of a pain to integrate because of the memory allocation.
The original study -and this poster- claimed that only the first and last letters had to be in place for the word to be legible, which wasn't quite accurate: the other letters must also be present.
Er, what he was saying was that in the US a nightclub is a place you go dance whereas in Europe a nightclub is a place where you go watch someone take their clothes off.

Both of his specs said 'Gentoo AMD64', an obvious typo. Geez.
Haha. Not that kind of PMS.
Besides, I'm pretty sure that Skynet was programmed in Prolog or Lisp.
Of course the test was run on an AMD 64, so Intel may not be showing its best.
I personally use Icc for the compile-time diagnostics and warnings, which usually clarify the errors from GCC, and frequently show undetected ones.

Um, no, you're not. If you believed in the literal truth then you'd have to take each word, well, literally.
So you simply believe that the Bible is fundamentally correct.
Your explanation is a bit too short. What's stopping Eve from doing a MitM at the point Alice and Bob are comparing over an insecure line?

Socialism nor communism preclude democracy.
Question: If you had a choice of these two economic potentialities, which one would you choose?
A) 50% make $110,000.00 a year and 50% make $10,000.00
-or-
B) Everyone makes $60,000.00 a year
So you're saying that Bush is responsible for al-Qaeda making such an impact in our consciousness? I agree.

Amusingly enough Adam Smith was a liberal.
In the case you didn't know, 'bipartisanship' in politics means that the other guys will do it your way, too.
Funny. I think Republicans are partial to MS Office and Visual Studio for all their development needs.
In unrelated news, Microsoft pre-emptorily acquitted in the next antitrust case.

You need to reinstall FF, looks like your binary is corrupted.
No, I meant that the interface should have implemented POSIX calls for simplicity, except where a functionality isn't defined in POSIX.

You know, that used to be "You know you've been MUDding too long when.."

No, it's not enough that the first and last letters are in place: the others must be present, too.
Not trolling, just NotAPhysicist. I thought that a particle does not have a state until it's observed?
