To deny yourself the use of debugger in pursuit of some fairytale "Real Man" "One True Way" of programming makes no sense. The fact that you conflate poor use of a tool with all use of a tool says an awful lot about your skills, and nothing at all about anyone else's.
Wow, that's not a kneejerk moderation or anything.
For the humor impaired - this is a mock ad for Microsoft as possibly hosted on Wikipedia under the proposed ad program. I'll grant it's not that funny, but it certainly doesn't deserve to be modded down. Anyone with points want to fix this?
Math-wise, computers are far more intelligent than the average individual at computation.
Maybe you don't realize just how much calculus is involved in walking down stairs.
The human brain is a computation engine of more power than people understand. It just doesn't happen at a conscious level, so we're not always aware of it. Our brains operate at a level far above raw computational power, which is really all our machines are good at right now.
The only time I've ever heard the term breeders, it was a term of derision being used by homosexuals. Assuming you are homosexual, are you mad because you don't get an anal lube subsidy? You can probably lobby for it.
To the politically correct mod squad - I'm genuinely curious about this, not trolling.
I'm a parent too, and although my child is healthy and will hopefully remain so her whole life, I can tell you that if she ever does need some kind of treatment that someone objects to on religious grounds, that someone had better stay the hell out of my way.
You're fuckin A, brother. I'll kill anyone to save my own progeny. I don't care what the cost is.
Oh, wait, I'm not a parent, so I see this as the selfish bullshit that it is. Here's the truth - your kid isn't special at all.

I ask in all seriousness, is there any end to the superiority of our enlightened Euro-brothers? I applaud you for your very existence - nothing about you can be said to be less than perfect. Thank you for existing, good sir.
Yeah, probably the way you're going to fire someone is what you should be thinking if you're in the process of hiring them. Obviously qualifications are a distant second.
I read 'Next Generation confirms...' as 'Netcraft confirms,' and thought, "Damn, they're getting really good."
I take that back - I wrecked myself. DOH.
Mod appropriately, please.
Slow down, Cowboy! Slashdot doesn't require that you check yourself, but it should have, because you wrecked yourself.

Ah, you're forced to be entertained. On someone else's terms, no less. What a diabolical scheme!
Here's some resources:

Necessity
Enjoy!
Do I smell the old "I have a right to be entertained on my terms" justification poking its rotting flesh out of the ground?

You shouldn't be anonymous, and you should be modded up. Just because it's painful doesn't make it a flame.
I hope this is a troll, but just in case it isn't - why should my personal will be subjugated to the will of the masses?
I could describe...
You could, but you know you're just being ridiculous to make an opinionated point.
Does either team actually have fans?

You've piqued my curiosity - if the drug industry doesn't foot the research bill, who does?

Yep, USians is still clever. Keep it going, enlightened brother.
Where are you getting this information? I've never heard of this, and I didn't experience it on my PS2, which was a first generation pre-order.
Yeah, calling this a proper Slashdot thread is like trying to drive down the freeway without an engine in the car.
That wasn't very good. I apologize.

Hey, if all you need is code done fast and you don't care if it works correctly, I'll write you anything you want, in 1 day - 100K.
