We had to do this in a course at Uni, Advanced Programming Paradigms. We had to write the same program in four different language, one of them was Functional -Miranda, one of the was Prolog, and two imperitive languages.
Reminds me of the Futurama episode...it's nearing election day on Earth and citizens are given a choice between two clones: John Jackson and Jack Johnson.
"It's time someone had the courage to stand up and say, 'I'm against those things everyone hates!'" --Jack Johnson, candidate for the President of Earth "Now, I respect my opponent. I think he's a good man, but quite frankly, I agree with everything he just said." --John Jackson, the opposing candidate
Also it may be an attempt by the RIAA to soften it's stance on the Internet as a delivery system, the first move is to get rid of Hilary, then get in someone more tech focused.
Nobody likes Hiliary Rosen because of what she represents. It was never a personal issue. Though many people have directed their anger towards her, it was never at her as an individual, but rather as the figurehead of an organization who's goals are in opposition to a large percentage of the public.
Yes, but she was the CEO. Surely she had some input into the direction her company was heading? At the very least, she is the most responsible for it. That is why people hate her so much. She could have done something good, but choose to go the easy root, and protect the old forms of doing business. It is analagous to people being upset at the G.Bush for what the US does.
Here's a clue: You will alienate less people if you put out better music. Woot Woot, the clue train is arriving, and this incarnation of the Pop train is finally leaving.
Who decides what music is better. It seems that most people seem to like what they are given, it doesn't really matter whether you and I think it is mindless pap.
Music these days(and for a long time), is no longer about music, but about an image, whether you are pro or anti the mass produced stuff.
I would almost agree with your statement about Sony, except change it to "nothing can kill sony, except microsoft." Sony are strong, but not that strong.
Come on, this was a great troll... slightly skewing the fact, packing a whole bunch of them into a single post, being almost sensible, but not quite, i am surprised so many people jumped.
Does anybody else think that Vivendi doesn't really sound like an american company, more italian
Certainly it's true that, whatever the law says, people on vehicles with nonzero stopping distances (like bicycles) are better off riding with traffic rather than riding on the sidewalks
Not for the cyclists. I will ride on the footpath in the city, especially on a Friday or Saturday night, when there are a lot of stupid drivers around. I have been hit by eight cars in my life, starting to get a bit sick of it. It hurts a lot more when a car hits a cyclist, than when a cyclist hits a pedestrian. And happens a lot less frequently.
Only problem is that bacteria can evolve a lot quicker than we can. Hospitals are a breeding ground for these new strains, and are some of the most dangerous places to work in the world. It is ironic that hospitals, places designed to help people, often end up spreading horrible infections around.

The more you tighten your GUI interface Gates, the more users will slip between your fingers.
The floppy drive is quite possibly the one component inside a computer that most users trust the most.
It is a shame the same can not be said for the floppy drive. I think that any sort of change will have to be industry wide, and phased in.

Quit complaining, for once slashdot is early with the news.
Nah, I love you guys, really.

It is not possible to get windows games in less than 1k, probably possible to dos games in 1k though.
