Thats a very popular opinion( especially on slashdot), but not one based upon fact. Because it is closed source, you can not determine if it is a collection of bandaids or if they have taken the time to fix the big problems correctly. Most people make mistakes because they can't tell the differnce between things they know and things they think they know. Remeber, nothing is impossible with emough money and time (except an improvement in my spelling).
Heck, our bodies are so complex, its amazing we even exist, let alone cobble some electrical signals together well enough to resemble rational thought .
rather than MS' security through obsecurity (don't publish security advisories),
What about this ? Not saying I agree with the survey, but there are far too many people here who are out of touch with reality. In another 5- 10 years, microsoft will be competitive with unix/linux on security. Right now however, it is still behind IMHO.
Seriously, why should we follow it? What made it the gold standard? Why is it better than the Chicago Style? It sounds as if they are attempting to impose their own standards on a rapidly changing field, and are out of touch with the popular practice. Three character state codes? Please.
and they want their sexism back. You're correct that we do want the best people, however it would appear that some of the brightest and best are not going into the field. In College, the smart women were all math majors. They were more than qualified to pursue CS, but there was so much blatent sexim in the department they were discouraged from entering the field. Its not so much as encouraging as it is not discouraging.
Lame joke, i'll admit. I happen to be a lover of lame jokes. The ppropriate response to such a joke is not laughter, but collective groan from the audince. I guess you post counts.
Think about this MSN in its crappy state that its in right now has 31%. Thats incredible, considering how terrible it is at finding relevent information. If they make it anywhere near Google or Yahoo's quality they will end up crushing them.
Ok, then what is the correct word that will convey the exact same feeling to the audience of slashdot. One of the reasons why there are a bilion ways of saying the same thing in the English language, is that each one has its own sublte nuances that affect the meaning. So while you may deride my word choice lacking imagination, the fact is that the words I did use were the correct ones in this case and anyother words would have changed the meaning. So while a group of people ( gay, lesbian, transgender) may take offense of the charterisation, the reality is that the word really transends their use of it as a descriptor of their sexuality. In fact, there are still those that resent that very same community for adopting the word "Gay" for their use.
Wait... No, thats totally (for lack of better word, no offense to anyone) Gay. Very Gay. When are you going to make them fly like you promised in the 50's? Thats the future I want. I want a flying car with laser cannons! And missles that come out of the tail pipe! With a racing stripe!
All of their patents mention the client automatically querying the server to present a list of software to add to the client. So, I think the windows update site itself is not covered by the patent, but the automatic feature might be. I've only played with macs for a little bit ( I'm allergic to Apples) I know they have an automatic update, but do they also have something simular to MS's Windows update site?
Visual studio isn't just a platform for developing asp.net solutions. Its a single enviornment that can be used for enteprise server and desktop applications as well. It can do so much more than Zend can do.
But with the name and passord of the admin acount simply "admin" it was more their stupidity than my genious. At some point they detected my presense( ok maybe I shouldn't have replaced the default background on all of the school computers) and shut down all of the computesr on campus to figure out what happened. They never really discovered it was me,hence no punishment! They gave a stiff warning that they would punish anyone respponsible for such hijinks in the future, and i decided that it wasn't worth providing them with any more motivation to catch me.
According to this article on rail guns, They can only get a 2kg projectile up to 4 km/s. Not nearly powerfull enough to launch me to mach 10! Next suggustion please!
How exactly do you propose I travel at mach 10? I don't think my civc goes that fast. Even lauched out of a cannon, I would not get close to Mach 10. But, if you know of a way, I'd be willing to make an attempt for the Darwin awards!
He made that bet as a joke. All of his work was on black holes so he made a bet with kip Thorne that they didn't. So if all of his work was about things that didn't exist, he would still have won the bet.
He finnally conceeded in 1997, and paid off his bet with a couple of playboys.
I have responded to the nigerian scams. Pretending to be a spy. I sighted specific locations and recent events that took place in the country. Never heard back from them.
I think you'd be much more likely to be hit by a car than raped, at least in America. I'm not sure how exactly you drive your cars over there, but now I'm not so sure I want to.

And I actually solved the argument with the use of my Hiptop.

I've found a serious flaw in Mozilla. It allows itself to run on Windows, an inherintly insecure platform.

I'm pretty sure the mutation only served to contaminate the unix species.

Like I mentioned earlier, 11 jokes will soon become very lame. I'm just warning everyone in advance. This one didn't even have a setup!
I'm willing to bet there will be an opening for IT manager soon.
that "This one goes to 11" might become the new "In Soviet Russia..". Its funny now, but just wait it will soon become very stupid.

you can't blame Apple for not supporting non-Apple players.
Hmm... I can't? Well, let me try anyway....
I blame Apple for not supporting non-Appple Players.
Gasp!!! Awe and Wonder! I *CAN* complain about lack of standardisation and interopability!

Maybe we should use something other than gentoo.
