He not only knows just about everything, but he's also remarkably good at putting together the pieces and figuring out a tough question that he didn't already know.
Why is the once almight $ now falling? Because the rest of the world doesn't believe that we'll be able to get your fiscal house in order (and they're probably right).
Actually, it's because Bush is trying to boost U.S. exports and help keep your job.
Makes vacations to Europe very expensive, though...

I know a software company in Houston that let go of a few developers this year. All of them got new development jobs within a month.
Companies are even more willing to hire cheap graduates.
I don't buy the bit about teachers. There is a teacher shortage in Houston, just like other places. And what in the world does an "ETS scoring fiasco" in New Orleans have to do with Houston?
I was amazed to learn that Buran flew into space completely by remote control. Kudos to the Russians for this feat.
The U.S. astronauts can't seem to take a piss without someone on the ground double-checking whether all the toilets will work properly. The U.S. space shuttle (and the space station) might as well be on remote control!
The legacy firewall configuration, in Control Panel -> Windows Firewall -> Advanced -> Settings..., is extremely confusing and dangerous. The settings from SP1 get carried over to SP2, but only inside the Advanced area.
Unlike the SP2 firewall, changing a legacy firewall setting in the Advanced area requires a reboot, and it doesn't tell you that. Generally, I've seen that the legacy firewall settings poke a much bigger hole in the firewall than the new SP2 exceptions. It's great that the SP2 exceptions are stricter, but Microsoft really should have disabled all of the legacy SP1 firewall settings, with an option to ask you which ones to enable.
Yes, I'm in the Raymond camp, but I think this is a case where breaking compatibility is prudent, especially considering the goals of SP2.
I think the bigger story here is where the other >= 95 - 57 - 18 = 20% went! (That's even more than Firefox's 18%.)
Or do we count Mozilla and Firefox separately?
The number one rule of burglars must be to go for the low-hanging fruit. (Wow, same rule applies to performance tuning...)
I think burglars are smart enough to notice the burglar alarm sensors around the windows. Just the sight of these can make them choose another house instead of yours. I know someone whose neighbors have all been robbed, even during the afternoon with all sorts of people around, but his house has been spared all these years, thanks to the alarm system.
Get an alarm system with the monitoring through a reputable company.
Slashdot Mirror
Now everyone can, thanks to Microsoft.
If you're just trying to experiment, maybe Virtual Server 2005 (or Virtual PC 2004) might reduce the number of boxes that you need.
He's back, but in another country?
He should really bring back Dev Null from The Site. Now that was entertainment!
Sounds like software development.
The only reason I haven't switched to Firefox is because it lacks the little button, on the left, to open a new tab.
The web server appears sentient: HTTP/1.1 503 - Server Slashdotted
In related news, they've just discovered a new vulnerability that affects all servers. It's called Slashdot.
Didn't I see this in a movie or two?
Slashdot, don't say Bush never did anything for you. Before long, we'll have starships!
And how many people complain and sue about (a) In God We Trust, (b) The Pledge, and (c) the bible in front of the courthouse?
Is there anywhere where I can nominate this as the coolest project of the year?
Do you have any plans for a speaking or pseudo-singing album? Maybe a video?
If you had your choice of any acting role ever in history, what would it be?

Ralph Nader believes $10/hour is a living wage. Why don't we make it $100/hour?
Randall Burns ... recently helped create the Kucinich campaign's position paper on H-1b/L-1 visas.
I guess he hates both Kerry and Bush equally. Should we call him non-partisan?

I didn't realize that "backlinks" are inherently conservative.
%windir%\system32\hal.dll
You might want to patch it with Windows Update, though. I hear it has a bug.
Will this cause trouble with SCOble?

Only if it's tic-tac-toe, Joshua.
