This assumes that Bill Gates is rich because he's a programming genius. That's not at all true. He's rich because he is a ruthless businessman, a shrewd negotiator, and takes no prisoners.
And most importantly, he knows what the people want.
Maybe in a few years, prisons will be even more overcrowed...
"What're ya' in for?"
"Downloading Britney, you?"
"N'Sync"
Both these people deserve to be in jail for downloading that shite.
Thank god, I thought I was going to have to fight off the GMail zombie geek army they're secretly developing all by myself. Stay safe! When the time comes I will call for you!
You're too late! I just sent him an invite. Repeat after me: KEYBOARD SHORTCUTS! KEYBOARD SHORTCUTS! KEYBOARD SHORTCUTS!
Oh come on, really, can you really say that just because their OS costs more than most pieces of hardware predatory?
Actually, you can't... predatory pricing means that they are pricing so low that they are forcing other competitors out of the market. On the contrary, when it comes to their OS, they are pricing so high because there are no competitors.
I would think, with the Batman franchise continuing on into an eco-crazy millenium, Batman wouldn't convert the Batmobile into an dually-wheeled SUV! How about at least a Bat-hybrid?!
I like it. I think it makes sense for Batman to be driving around in a defacto urban tank. C'mon, do you really want to see Batman in a Mini? be serious!
So, is U2 the friend, or the enemy of modern music? Is "modern" music that which is envisioned by the likes of Corgan, where expression is free in it's entirety, or is it that which rakes in the cash? I'd say that it's the former, since that's where the real expression comes out. U2's last album was somewhat of a whore for sales... it sounded nice and poppy, none of it was objectionable or edgy... and it sold a lot of copies. U2 is showing their true colors, now, by fleecing us with their name. Their music isn't special anymore, it doesn't have the content anymore, it's just meaningless pandering to the "modern music" crowds.
Dude, you are like so freaking right, man! Let's stick it to the Bush Evil Empire. Who cares if truth was thrown out the window. Its all about getting the unelected Chimp out of the White House.
Dave Koppel's rants lose sight of the point of Moore's work. Moore isn't claiming to present an objective perspective of history... Objectivity implies lack of emotion - Moore wants his viewers to be passionate! What he wants is people to look back on the past and feel real emotion for people who have died. He is defending the argument that the more people we kill... the more people who die needlessly in this world, the further we wander from the peace we really wanted all along. He questions whether the people who ultimately we put in power really want peace, or have been corrupted into seeking more power, more control over others in the world.
If anything, what I get of Koppel's articles is that it's Koppel who is misguided... not the audiences.
The problem, I think, is what companies consider to be alpha / beta / whatnot. Alpha is when a product is still in development / testing. Beta is when the project is feature complete, and all that's going on is bugfixing.
Actually, the strict defenitions of alpha and beta testing are internal (developer) and external (customer) testing, respectively, prior to release of a product.

Thinkpads are some of the best laptops in the business and are probably contributing the most to PC profitability for the company.
for 1 week in a month, year, 2 years?
I agree with this though. I think it's dangerouus to the compnay to have workers toiling more than 60 hours/week.
I'm impotent, allergic to trees, and have lost the use of my right hand. Thanks for making me feel good.
See kids.. that's what happens when you spend too much time looking at things you shouldn't.

Hmm what he was describing sounds a lot like XML/XSLT. I wonder if his work is taking that into account??
they brought out his middle name. He's really in for it now!

And since, lim n->infinity {(9/10)^n} is 0 then...

I'll stick with my Pumpkins for now.
This Casey Casum. Now on with the countdown...
Just listen to War or Joshua Tree or Achtung Baby.
These guys make music that will be listened to long after you are gone.

It's called really strong wind. ;)
No, you made him so angry... he didn't even complete his thought.
I don't know what business you work in, but if they haven't read it in 3 days, they've lost my business.
You mean: Do not fight apprentice of (poisoned) Pai Mei with remaining eye.

Shouldn't be that hard to ask your sister?
More like wait for a inter-planetary collision, or rather a celestial OREO cookie and literally jump between the planets.
Wow, Asimov really had a deathwish.
Yes, my mind careens through the psychedelic swirls and curls of this trend.
