Just like anything run by the "Ace of Spades" (e.g. Africa, Atlanta, Amtrak), you get defensive service, low-quality product, a definitive focus on showy maneuvers and increasingly polished "game" instead of actual improvement or change in response to demands, and of course an attitude problem that is generally epidemic due to the fact that it requires a man present to turn a child into an adult.
There's no passion in the flop race anymore...its just business. You can get something outrageous like that, but who's gonna care about it over more pressing issues like storage space. Its just not fun anymore, the computer age is dead. We're now in the handheld age, get used to it folks.:D
Somewhat unrelated to the article I suppose, and I never thought I'd say this but buying a new computer is...boring.
There I said it.
I remember a time when if you waited three years, and got a computer, the difference was downright shocking.
Last week a blew my wad on new, high-end everything and I really can't tell the difference. Crysis on full tilt looks...oh wait. this is a game that I played through YEARS AGO. okay. Now what.
So, I found a PC game I haven't played through: Star Trek:Judgement Rights(1993-ish?) on my brand new four core. With DOSBox. Yeah. Four cores. Three cheers for piracy, nobody makes PC games anymore:/ Its like owning a gigantic SUV with a small tank and the gas station is 50 miles away.
I see you've been working on a salary for too long:)
If you were paid hourly and could work unlimited hours, why wouldn't you work every hour of every day if you could? Oh, yeah, because past a certain point, your time is *more valuable to you* than what you're getting paid.
Hence I disagree wholeheartedly. I work hard, and nothing is more valuable than my Facebook time, or whatever else I do to chill out my fried brain cells. And spending time investigating odd messages and friend requests disturbs my chill. Chill which I would only give up for...oh, I don't know, $500 per half hour or so.
Ya know, I'd stay up two weeks straight for a 50 million, health and drug-free lifestyle be damned. But damn if I wouldn't get mad if I got less than that.
People who enter CS and successfully finish means they have a smart family.
People enter IT/IS/etc programs when they are clearly the smartest person in the family. E.g. the only one able to administer a computer. Hence accumulating an addiction to basic computer related tasks and spending too much time doing such and not paying attention to math classes.
Otherwise, from a numeric standpoint, the winner is clearly obvious...from payscale.com:
IT Median Salary Range: $49,600 to $79,300.
CS Median Salary Range: $56,200 to $97,700.
Basically nobody cares what the curriculum is...it all boils down to CS majors do it for money and IT majors suck at math. (simply the choice itself as demonstrated above lends to the belief that IT majors profoundly suck at math.
Um, Wing Commander: Privateer weighed quite a bit. So did Windows 3.11. Castles (by Interplay, remember the annoying Abbess who was nuts and wanted to execute heretics constantly?) came with BOTH 5.25 and 3.5 floppies.
This is well before the internet thing totally happened, given, but I imagine the servers involved weigh quite a bit.
The internet weighs billions TYVM, you assholes out there just get served without having to service the damn hardware think its that easy don't you?
Hate to break it to ya, "Whites only" restaurants still exist, albeit in small numbers and in small towns. As I understand it, as long as they're privately owned (e.g. not corporate), the owner can serve or turn away whomever he or she pleases for whatever reason. There's one not far from where I live. Great food, no spooks.:D (joking...)
Assuming you are descending down the tree, searching for yourself, or your nearest match (which is what most people do). If the node that is "you" is removed from the dataset, then:
a. Your match and your nearest match are now identical, and that result is meaningless.
b. You may realize that you can be in the tree, and outside it as well, hence you can select your position in the tree at will. This type of exterior view is called a soul, and it is the part of you that can be anyone or anything at any time. That is why spiritual teachers profess that love is the answer, because otherwise you wouldn't want to put your heart and soul into the world around you long enough to learn more about how people really are, how things work, and how to meaningfully exist outside of the tree.
No. We're already in the Matrix. What we're talking about here is a Matrix inside a Matrix. Its kind of a neat concept, and kind of meshes with the whole idea of the age old "tree of life" concept, where this ephemeral god concept is the head node, which branches to child archangel nodes, which then branch to angels, which all fan-in to a single child "heaven" object, or love-area. Some of the angels "fell", meaning their head nodes became the heaven object, and instead of this interesting god-angels-heaven circle, the branching continued, ultimately leading to the creation of this universe.
I would point out that we as consciousness-seeking race are busy playing god, and creating universes, such as can be found in games, puzzles, stories, religion, books, mathematics, science. And those developed in precisely that order. Games is to god, as puzzles are angels, as stories are to people, as religion is to angels, as mathematics and science are to god. Its all one big recursive refinement loop.
It has been a while since any party held a true loyal majority, like during the of times Reagan and FDR. Meanwhile the independents and swing voters keep both well under the dedicated 50% that is so cherished by fanboys from both sides.
Its a lot of people. The lower IQ countries tend to fall behind. Imagine when all of Ethiopia gets online. I can imagine it being somewhere between AOL+USENET and LOLcats

I would say that generally Republicans draw more votes from average technical ability/intelligence/income (Joe Middle Class). Democrats tend to draw more votes from either extreme,Joe Working Class and Intellectuals, and the former group including the majority of people in the US who haven't used a computer yet. So if you have a more complicated voting system set up, the lower end of the intellegence/technical/income are going to have significantly more mistakes, people scared away because they don't like computers, etc. The median is 100, so there are just as many people out there in the 60-80 range as there are in the 120-140 range, and particularly the males of that range will not ask for help and just turn it in or walk away to avoid embarrassment. If 2% of your voting population is getting frightened and embarrassed away, thats a pretty major upset.
I live in Georgia, I've used those Diebold machines, and I know people who just the thought of using a computer sets them edge, and they all are dixiecrats.

You designed a recursive irrelevancy algorithm there, unknowingly calling yourself out as well.

Netbeans became popular because Eclipse used to suck. This situation would bother me if we still were stuck in 2004. :)
