That's been my experience as well. Our US based contractors write better code. It seems cheaper to hire the Indian guys, but it never is. You either have to pay them to go back an optimize or you get stiffed with no reciprocity.
Shooting someone in the heart IS oxygen deprivation... that's the purpose of the heart, to pump oxygen throughout your body. You'd have to destroy all 4 chamber at once, and they'd still have oxygen in their brain for a while, and you don't die from oxygen deprivation for up to 5 minutes.
Cut out the bullets, and just remove the oxygen. It's a helluva lot cleaner.
Keep in mind, in civil cases (such as this one), there are many hurdles in obtaining a judgment in correlation with the RICO act. Point being, it's not that easy. The RIAA is more concerned with their technique for accusing people remaining legally sound than being pummeled with a RICO civil case.
I've read several comments like yours in this thread. I just picked a random one to comment on. It's important to realize that the majority of professional developers are paid to produce a product, that works, in the shortest amount of time possible, with the mindset that things will need to change quickly to accommodate clients needs. As well, most professional developers aren't really low level guys and deal mostly with glorified database frontends with scattered business logic thrown about. Things like ORMs, RAD IDEs and extreme programming allow for this type of hostile environment with a relatively quick turnaround. It's a competitive market and not everyone can, or even needs, work at the machine level.
I get the feeling allot of you hardcore guys miss the idea that multicore systems are still very helpful, regardless of rather a thread model is implemented or not. When a machine is responsible for running a RDBMS, webserver, FTP server, mail server and an application pool, adding a threading model to your application can become a serious bottleneck.
I would venture to guess, that the majority of professional (not at an academic, student or research level) would hardly ever have the need for parallel systems.
The point I am trying to make, is; the benefits of a multicore machine, go FAR beyond individual applications in the real world.
You sir, are a fucking idiot. You're talking about economy vs. someones son / daughter dying of TB. Get some fuckin perspective on "life" and realize that saving millions from certain death is never "harmful"... jackass!
This will be my final post with slashdot, i'll be moving to digg for my news after today.
This guy wants to quit his day to day responsibilities to give away his money to the less fortunate and all you guys want to do is bash him. Hey, I like Linux, I own a Mac and have tons of Windows experience, but just because you don't like his business practices or his OS dosn't give you the right to belittle him. Will you manage to give away 80% of your fortune before you die? Didn't think so fucktard!
Give the guy a break, he's one of the few modern day humanitarians!

Actually, the.NET framework was created and developed by one Anders Heljsberg. This is the same guy behind Delphi over at Borland (formerly Inprise). Americans used to get slammed all the time for using Delphi opposed to VB or VC++ although all us Delphi guys knew we could bring projects to market in a fraction of the time.
That being said, I do agree completely. I have been using Mono and.NET to cross compile on Mac OS X, Linux, AIX and Windows for about 6 months now. Not only do I get a nice set of tools to work with, but with Gtk#, PostgreSQL and the Connector/.NET components I get full cross platform GUI / Database operability without even thinking about it. IT JUST WORKS!
C# is very nice. If people want spend hours with C++ doing the most mundane of tasks, then god bless them. I don't want to work along side them anyways. OS worship is about as ignorant as it gets.
Wow, I use the 3rd edition of this book as my bible... (Mostly due to the STL information presented). I will seriously consider looking elsewhere. My first introduction to OO and programming in general was Delphi (Borland's Object Pascal). This was the only book that came across in a clear fashion for me. Given your knowledge of C++ books, do you have any recommendations?
With my experience, 90% of the time, yes! I've even been able to use GTK# and NgPGSQL for GUI and Database access (respectively). I compile with Mono on my gnu/linux box and run on windows just fine and vice versa. It's pretty amazing.
The one area that has always annoyed me with postgresql and mysql was the lack of a good backup system. You have to script the entire database to do a backup. Oh vacuuming a database sucks as well!
I think you should call your mother, dickchin. Although she sucks cock like a champ her whiskers irritate my balls and Im running out of quarters to pay her.

Any precident she can set will have an effect on future cases. Even if she's doing it for personal gain. This could be a win / win for consumers.

You do realize Microsoft pioneered what we today call AJAX, way back in the day with their Office product, right?

C++: The Complete Reference by Herbert Schildt & Thinking in C++: by Bruce Eckel.
In my opinion, the best c++ books out there.
Actually, there is. http://www.mono-project.com
Modern and well thought out libraries that fix mistakes or poor design in older more mature languages.
The power is not the language itself, it's the framework as a whole.
With my experience, 90% of the time, yes! I've even been able to use GTK# and NgPGSQL for GUI and Database access (respectively). I compile with Mono on my gnu/linux box and run on windows just fine and vice versa. It's pretty amazing.
Because Swing and AWT suck so bad, thats why! Try GTK# and you'll soon see why people love it.
Ohhhh... BTW, PostgreSQL is the database behind the .org TLD servers as well.
Where else can you load up a 50+ database cluster and not have to shell out a fortune on licensing fees?
PostgreSQL
The one area that has always annoyed me with postgresql and mysql was the lack of a good backup system. You have to script the entire database to do a backup. Oh vacuuming a database sucks as well!
I need to do a control panel layout for my WIP mame cabinet. This may be just the tool I need.
This might be the most useful thing I've seen between on slashdot in months.
You totally mentioned everything I thought as soon as I heard this thing. While this is just infinatly cool, it will never reproduce human dynamics.
.. etc etc. I could go on for days.
Muffling, percussive strumming (think Jack Johnson), ghosting
There is NO WAY this thing will every play an electric guitar with distortion.
All that being said, this is a cool ass machine.
I think you should call your mother, dickchin. Although she sucks cock like a champ her whiskers irritate my balls and Im running out of quarters to pay her.
How's that for an opinion asshat?
The insurance company would consider an open door an invitation and wouldnt pay you a dime for your losses.
P.S. The police will file your report and serial numbers and do nothing more.
So while not "LEGAL", you pay a "dumbass" fee.
