Indeed. Or to take TFA's argument one step further, perhaps the gubment should give Microsoft money so they could make an operating system that was secure.
You won't be able to notice the vast improvement in Ubuntu's desktop experience over the past six months by browsing screenshot galleries of 9.04 or looking at new feature lists. What I'm talking about is that elusive slick-and-speedy feel you get from applications launching fast, windows moving around without jerkiness, and everything simply being where it should be in the user interface.
Not being able to run Outlook, Internet Explorer and Messenger is a feature, not a bug. Besides, think of the inevitable buffer overruns happening in the proctable - hilarity ensues!
When your mind is very very quiet, just watching your hands work. You could be changing your oil or knitting or chopping vegetables, it really doesn't matter. It's the stillness.
...had to write code in a hot dusty room for 20 days with temperatures near 107F (~41C); having nothing to sit on; a 64 Kbps inconsistent internet connection; warm water for drinking and a lot of distractions and interruptions...
I'll go you one better - I once had to maintain Perl code.
I was promised poniez. And a flying car. And electricity "too cheap to meter". And vacations on the Moon. And a Larger Penis. And a Whistling Yo-Yo. And Hot Chicks. And a raise.

Meanwhile, the Supremes rule on questions of law, not amounts of damages, so TFA asks a silly question and gets a silly answer.
So all developers are ipso facto mentally ill? It would explain quite a lot.
I miss the SGI lava lamp for just that reason.
Could we have a poobah or a caliph or sultan or something, please God, anything else for a change, plz?
No, that's YourSQL.

That's PEW PEW ridiculous. I can PEW PEW PEW stop PEW PEW whenever I want PEW PEW PEW to.
I can't wait to see the looks on their faces at the ISS when the backhoe shows up.
Wow! That's not a job, it's a bad acid trip!

And why exactly are we throwing millions of page views at these racist fucks???
Also, they failed to mention that while you're wearing one of these, it causes your mouth to move out-of-sync with the words you're saying.
