Boole and Babbage have long since been buried, and so they don't have an address to which you can send your money. However, since I'm in Britain, I'm happy to serve as an intermediary: for only a 10% cut I'll take the money you send in and deposit it on their graves.
I've kicked caffeine cold turkey for specified periods of time - e.g. exam term, when I needed to sleep well. I only had withdrawal symptoms the first time. So yes, if I wanted to I could quit it again.
Sure, but the question has always been whether shrinkwrap EULAs are contracts, given that their model of offer-and-acceptance differs hugely from that of all other contracts.
I think you're getting a bit confused - "charismatic" refers to a position on the current work of the Holy Spirit: "evangelical" to a position on the authority of the Bible.
You didn't point out one of the cons with the British system of first past the post and parliamentary election: a party can win a solid majority of seats even though a different party won a solid majority of votes. (The winning party can then look silly by claiming to have a mandate to rule - some mandate!)
You want vector maps? ARC/INFO from ESRI is a vector mapping GIS, and they have data for the whole world. You can also get data on a country-by-country basis from Penn. State University.
The bytecode does work. It's only the class version number which doesn't. Every new version of Java has incremented the major version number of the class files produced by javac, and has provided -target to allow you to compile to an older version number.
You're misunderstanding "backwards compatibility", by the way. It means that old class files work with 1.5 without recompilation.
If by this you mean that Christianity should not be treated as solely political, I agree. But it undeniably makes political statements - that's what was behind some of the earliest persecutions: witness Thessalonica. And although social action isn't the most important function of the church, it is a responsibility of the church, and it does lead into politics: where, after all, does one draw the line between the two?
It's certainly annoying, but sometimes necessary. I dictated part of my dissertation to ViaVoice because serious RSI prevented my from typing it. Dictating LaTeX to ViaVoice is slow, but not as slow as dictating it to a typical person.

I was thinking the same. I suppose that answers my question as to whether the FAQ's up-to-date in claiming that the /. audience is mainly from the US.
You can cash your options any time you like,
But you can never leave.

You could give them a pencil instead of a punch machine.

All you have to do is hang on to a copy of the memo about them storing your passphrase and you can wave that in the court of law.
Yes, I know it was Archimedes who said "Give me a lever and a place to stand..."
That's an easy mistake. The Engineering prize is what astounds me - it's for a patent which is 29 years old.
Didn't he admit once that he just denied all suggestions as to the meaning behind his songs until someone made a suggestion he liked?

If you want to compile for older VMs, you have to use the -target compiler option. This isn't new.
Yes, it is. Come on - Solaris and Emacs use similar numbering systems.
Emacs?
Well, political party I can see as a contradiction, because parties are meant to be fun, but what's the other one?
Wait a minute. Do you have incriminating pictures featuring, perhaps, Duyba and Tony?
His characters aren't as bad as the way they all think and speak American, regardless of their nationality and upbringing.
They saw a laser beam? So had they been filling the air with chalk dust or something?
