Because sometimes you want to write something quickly without having to worry about managing memory, pointers, etc. If you're writing an application where every clock cycle counts, then yes, use C or C++, but in most cases you can get away with a little bit more CPU usage with the benefit of code maintainability. I suppose if you really had a section of code where minimal CPU usage was important, you could write that in C++ and import it into Java as a native interface library.
FUD. Unix systems have always been vulnerable to virii. Much like the mugger who targets the little old grandma as opposed to the 6' tall young man, criminals will take the path of least resistance.
Wouldn't an advanced civilization have developed a means of communication that can penetrate whatever disturbance would come from members of their civilization communicating while on aircraft?
Yes, but does the producer of the classical music CD own the copyright to the performance if the song was written by a composer who died hundreds of years ago? Granted, there are newer classical composers, but for the most part the IP restrictions have passed, correct?
Here is the real reason why we were attacked. It is because we were making military advancements on Muslim soil. Both "hating freedom" and "hating our society" were excuses that Bush came up with.
Engineers can only dream of such a material to build bridges from. But strangely, software fails waaayyyy more often than bridges. It looks like (in general) bridge builders take their job far more serious than software developers.
Yes, because bridge building is exactly the same level of complexity as software development.
I happen to think that given the two very different philosophies of these companies that Google is probably dominating the marketshare of talented developers. Google quite simply appeals more to the geek aesthetic of innovation and using technology to enhance people's lives. MS is all about hampering innovation and using devious business tactics to ensure that inferior technology always prospers. At least that's the general perception.
If you're one of the best software developers out there, who would you rather work for? Even if MS offers more money, it's hard to justify wanting to work for MS.
Gates has admitted in many interviews that the key to the success of Microsoft has always been in attracting the best minds to come work for them. Something tells me that is no longer the case and that is why the writing is on the wall for Microsoft.
The receiver of the e-mail requires that the sender put something in his message with a link for being paid for reading the message. The receiver then rejects all e-mails without this link (or not from a known whitelist).
Infastructure is required so that the sender can't fake the link.
I always think about NetBeans and Eclipse and how they are both these OSS projects that are funded by large companies. Most of the code for these projects has been written by developers on the dole from either Sun or IBM. The question is, why should companies like IBM or Sun limit themselves to the pool of developers they have working in-house? I currently work as a developer 40+ hours a week, and while I have ideas for features to contribute and bugs I would like to see fixed in these products, I can't see programming outside of my job since the programming I do for work I get paid for. If Sun or IBM would sign a reasonable check for me to fix their products, I would be more likely to help them out.
It also makes it worth buying the iPod with a 2-year replacement plan, and then using that to buy the latest model when the battery runs down since you can't replace it yourself...
When will they update the firmware for old iPods?

To say that there are no viruses for Linux at all is misleading.
Sure they have.

Do we really need to point out this bug every time it happens? These posts are about as pointless as the overlords/1,?,3 profit/soviet russia posts.

MS denies Windows needs restart.
What educational software packages are available for Linux? Something tells me they haven't ported Oregon Trail to Linux yet.
