It looks like a browser. Screenshots don't really tell you anything about a web browser's performance and compatibility, which is the most important thing. OTOH, there is an unbelievable amount of wasted screen space on those screenshots, Displaying the time horizontally and off center like that is both ugly and stupid.
I know you said not to say it, but I'll say it anyway - it's because they're not interested. It's not like they're getting thrown out of the registrar's office when they try to sign up for CS classes.
Thanks, I'll have to stop having Amazon donate money to FSF every time I buy something there... BTW, how old is that? It looks like it was when Amazon mostly sold books.
FWIW, I used to work at a webhosting company, there are a few reasons it costs more money. Aside from the obvious (licensing costs) it requires more hardware per hosted site, and is much more costly time consuming to administer (I could fix most problems on a Linux server faster than I could RDP into a Windows server).
I work on a large data-driven application. At the insistence of a couple of large customers, we have to support MSSQL on the backend in addition to Postgres. MSSQL is the bane of my existence.
This seems as a good a place to start looking as any. It allows you to make text-based games but expand into graphical adventure games. There's a free PDF book on there as well.
Not in Montana. I've driven there, and from the time some road obstacle appears as a speck in the distance, you have about 20 minutes to decide how to avoid it.
There are probably a lot of programmers in big cities who want to get out. There are a lot of appealing things about a big city - if you're 20 years old and single. People outgrow clubbing and "entertainment" and sometimes want to start families. Then again, nobody in SF would hire anyone over 30 - we won't work 80 hours a week on salary just because the place has a Foosball table and free soda.
I've never been arrested or tried in court for it. I am not a judge and am therefore not qualified to decide whether anything I may or may not have done is illegal or not. If I'm not sure anything I've done is illegal, then I can answer this question with a "No" and not be lying.
That operating system needs to be continuously updated with security fixes.
What you mean "need". The license doesn't put them in any liability for the consequences of security flaws. People don't use Windows and Office because they're the most secure products, they use Windows and Office because they are locked in. Microsoft could declare right now they're not going to fix any more security flaws in Windows, all future installations will be licensed at a fee of $1K/CPU/year, and people wouldn't have any more choice than they do now.
The thing about Zuckerberg, as opposed to the others, is I can't understand why he was so successful. It's not as though Facebook was particularly original, it just somehow became popular enough that people used it because everyone else did.
"Besides built-to-order machines, the 21.5-inch iMacs are some of the first known examples of an Apple computer being assembled in the U.S., according to Fortune."
I would think that in the past, they were all assembled in the US, at least the Apple II was made in the US. I'm not sure when they started making everything in China, but all of the manufacturing moved there pretty recently. The Apple II was made at the time that stuff was still manufactured here.
I work in a chemistry lab in the US. The manometers are in mmHg, the diaphragm vacuum pump is in inHg, the autoclave is in PSI, and the high-vacuum pump is in mbar. I've never used Pascals for anything. Although, this was the first time I've ever noticed that everything in my lab is using completely different units.
Looking at the pictures of the food portions, I don't think that's a problem. I'd probably be trying to get the meal over with so I could go home and eat a sandwich.

It's pretty hard to fuck up a class that's just a collection of getters and setters. It was probably autogenerated anyway.

99% of the deployments I would consider MySQL for are low-volume PHP sites that will be deployed on shared Linux hosting, so no.

It's possible for a market to become more economically efficient while becoming less pleasant for consumers.
Possible? That is how it will always happen when there is no/limited choice.
If I don't have voice mail, who is going to answer the phone? I don't want to sit there listening to it ring all day.

That comes out to $1538.46 per iPad, in case you were too lazy to figure it out and checked the comments to see if it was already done.

The second one could be important. It could gain traction in businesses that use in-house apps.

Your last paragraph basically described the Xbox.

1) Computers have keyboards.
2) A product that is intended purchased in bulk for widespread use by the public isn't a "niche."
Uh, I think he was referring to games like poker and horseshoes.

You can get the same effect with a variac and a piece of wire.
Coffee and Tea are plants. The drinks are both types of infusions.
