the pain of userbase backlash, in the "big bad blue" mentality that formed after years of the IBM FUD machine. So in a complete 180 they're listening to customers (rather than dictating to them).
So we wouldn't expect this out of them, as we hope they always take the high ground. Or it could be 3 strikes, your out.
Did the mods miss it? It's not exactly offtopic, if you get the context right. The line was from somebody examining DATA STRUCTURES representing people in the "Matrix", remarking that after a certain period of time, he stopped classifying them conciously and started seeing "blond, brunette".
I suppose he is implying that this book would be of no use to him.
Just why your countrymen choose to keep the dubious plural identifier is beyond me... the singular form of the word doesn't exist, hence it can be dropped in the shortened form.
Moreover it frees us to speak of multiple varieties of math (i.e. maths).
It's not my fault (nor yours, nor anybody's really) if people suddenly figured out that standardization of practices in software development would lead to increased commodization of said market, with the side effect that many jobs would be outsourced (as previous industries have in times past).
Just because it's biting you in the ass right now doesn't mean you're special.
If me or Billy Bob Blow over there can write a perfectly servicable software package in their spare time, and they are willing to give it away, then maybe that software package has lost its value to developers. It's done. Stick a fork in it. No one else needs to reinvent the wheel unless they're adding some serious value.
They're not displacing people of a paycheck. They're getting rid of overdone, overpriced software from the market.
Where do you think the highly toxic capacitors in your electronics are fabricated? China. Where do you think the steel and aluminum are smelted, rolled, and processed? India. Where does the motherboard come from? Taiwan.
They already do that. Apparently this type of manufacturing can't be exported because they don't have skilled enough workers there or something (or the plant was already here... not cost effective)
Because if you do, these addresses may be used to fake from headers for the MyDoom worm, or other spam, etc. Maybe a lot of it went to a group of people who got together and in retaliation, bugged GoDaddy a lot, causing them to suspend the account (without properly investigating to see if it actually ORIGINATED from your domain).
Hell, this may even be the case if you don't let people have email addresses at your domain. Nothing's stopping spammers from making it look like stuff comes from admin@proboardz21.com or billybob or whatever, so long as the payload still generates sales for the right person.
Meanwhile it makes you (or your service providers) look like the most obvious source of ill will.
I can't thing of a single thing I bought online that I searched for directly in a search engine.
The way most people shop is 1) They use a search engine to find a retailer that has the kind of thing they're looking for combined with good reputation or price 2) They use the internal search engine to find the product they want.
Or they use a specialized product search engine like froogle.
So what are you helping them sell, exactly? Care to provide an example?
But you know I'm right. If you have similar sentiments, mod me back up. Let those fucknuts know how you feel about "Search Engine Optimization", i.e., "you'll never find an objective review about a commercial product EVER AGAIN with a search engine... HAHAHAHhAHAHHAAA"
is like a spammer calling himself an "eCommerce Marketing Agent"
When I want to search for something online, I do not want to see a webpage designed to snag my eyes.
AT ALL!
You do me and many other previously happy web users a great disservice.
You should encourage web page designers to make MORE USEFUL WEBPAGES rather than wasting their time trying to get search engines to notice them.
It is the job of the search engine to determine what page is most relevant, not the page authors themselves (directly). Because everyone wants to be most relevant. But frankly that fails because of something called the pigeonhole principle.
Guess what! 80% of people aren't better than average drivers either!
So please, accept my gift of a virtual knuckle sandwich.
The article submitter is SPECIFICALLY trying to profile slashdot readership. Clearly the Anonymous Coward is either the article's author, or someone with a vested interest in our opinions on this topic, but someone who can't look at gorank's referral logs.
This is VERY sneaky (akin to putting an Amazon referral link in a book review).
Do NOT click on the link. If the submitter had actually bothered to use a logged in slashdot account, I would be more trusting. Copy Link location, open new browser window, paste.
Jesus Christ every time I read that acronym (especially when followed by tips or professional)I just want to ram my fist down the authors throat and rip out his gall bladder.
You'll never win you shit-for-brains! You remind of those people with claims of "e-Bay success stories".
Why does slashdot keep linking to these fucking retards? Where's timothy's scathing comment?
Do slashdot readers actually have commercial websites that they worry about their google rankings?

Is that enough explanation? Jesus Christ.

I guess I was wrong. And you are correct in your reasoning in your second statement, I did mean multiple branches.

There's not much to translate incorrectly! Although they finally got "echo grass" right... :P
And I'm albino.
That's a conservative estimate, by my count ::hands crossed over naked chest in thought::. Wait, what was the article about again?

did you try before you found one that wasn't registered?
And there was nothing to run, so the complex instructions are impossible to find nowadays.

I was equating penis with funny, and funny with parody, in a braindead fashion. This was supposed to be satirical.
My apologies if I'm too obtuse.
Seriously. If you WANT an encompassing window around your environment, then do it the Unix way... with a tool that does JUST THAT.
Xnest your gaim sessions. Xnest your open office documents. etc.

Utter bullshit.
most people go on slashdot for one of two purposes... to read an interesting article, or to look for a place to dispense their opinion.
Only a small minority of slashdotters do both tasks (and necessarily in that order!)
Not trying to be a dittohead, just trying to underscore a well-constructed point.
