He knew he wasn't supposed to do it, he was warned not to do it, he did it anyway. He pled guilty.
If he didn't read his contract that's his problem. I also find it very unlikely.
Why is this on slashdot?
Possibly to serve as a warning to others? That might be his whole purpose in life.
If anything, Obama's election proves the current mindset of Americans (social welfare for everyone granted by big government.)
Odd perspective... I was thinking that it was more of an indication of the rejection of a government by the corporations, of the corporations, for the corporations.
They may refuse to listen, but I pray that one day their hearts will open to the gastronomic glory of Our Noodly Creator, who maketh the snow to fall on Mars like the Parmesan of Redemption on the Holy Meatball.
Aw man... I skipped lunch and now you reminded me how hungry I am.... mmm... meatballs...
p> #5: From a feudalistic standpoint, you would go from being a subject of a crown to a citizen of a country
*snicker* Please... anyone who's lived in a commonwealth country will tell you that the "subject of a crown" BS is nothing but a formality. You know, kinda like American representative democracy. *duck*!;)

I'm born in Britain, I've lived in Canada most of my life and I've spent a lot of time with Americans (Even have an american HS diploma!). I'd rather be as subject of the crown than American any day.
Americans spend a great deal of time talking about freedom, Canadians actually are free.
I think the Iranians hate their own government more than the US government, by a lot.
That is certainly true of all the Iranians I know personally... (However none of them actually lives in Iran and one of them actually fled the country)
Was hearing the term 'crotch of her panties' repeated copious times by Nina Totenberg when reading the SCOTUS arguments a few weeks ago. Seriously, I think was the raciest thing ever broadcast on NPR. Very surreal.
So the tyrants of Iran are blaming this whole mess on the American media, then they're tying to placate the protesters with American media? A movie trilogy about a bunch of people banding together to overthrow an evil tyrant no less. Nobody could draw parallels between things like the dark riders and the police riding motorcycles beating people with clubs.
The sense of irony is weak with the Iranian dictatorship...
Or the Iranian leftist media just managed to *WHOOSH* the evil overlord.
1) Poor UI - what he is talking about? Windows CE is a mess.
It's all relative... I've been playing with Android on my Freerunner and while kind of sexy for a handheld technically it's not going to win any UI design awards.
In fact I'd say that for non-technical users (the majority of the market) it's got major usability issues.
My favourite Tick episode is where he gets flu and, for some reason, has to fight a version of himself made out of snot. He wins by snorting it into himself and sneezing it into a dimensional portal. Nice.
That is by far the oddest usage of the word nice I've seen all day.

I live on a gravel road. This is nonsense.
I live in Canada, we have snow here, not heavy frosts.
I'd really be interested in seeing what POS software they decide to bundle
You Linux fanboys are all alike! When POS software comes bundled on a Windows box, you're all "I don't want AOL" and "Who the $&!# is Netzero" or "Bonzi Buddy is stealing my identity" and you whine about having to "uninstall" it. But as soon as it's on Linux you're all excited about it!
I'm sure that as long as the POS is not a POS everyone will be happy.

Oh STFU, you religious nut.
Actually... I'm an atheist and I was referring to a slogan on a popular poster. Hope those meds work out for ya...

Uhhh, does this mean the Unified Process is dead?
Well it's been brain dead for ever... pulling the plug would be merciful.
The patterns book significantly predates JUnit and Eclipse, the communications person clearly focused on his work for IBM.
I had not noticed any issues on Friday at all so I was rather surprised by the news reports about net slowdowns. Adblock FTW!

I happen to have a digital projector in my living room that I use for entertainment. Stop making assumptions, you know what happens when you do that.
I get promoted to manager?

Perhaps you should get out more.
should we be cherishing them and making sure they don't see Janet Jackson's nipple?
I will vote for anyone who dedicates themselves to protecting me or my children from Jackson family body parts.
You might want to change you position on this topic if you ever escape from your cubicle/office/suit & tie.

SO, NASA is going the way of Mythbusters - from an organization devoted to scientific inquiry into one that just blows things up for kicks...
What mythbusters proves is that being curious can be fun... especially if you have a budget and an explosives license.

Perhaps we could roll a new Ubuntu sub-project: Blubuntu
Sure would beat the turd-coloured default edition...
Absolutely, I especially hate the way it makes my thighs look big.

So... just like Ubuntu only blueier.

If the USA can't, maybe they should outsource to India. India's a democracy and they have far more voters than the USA ;).
Shades of "Stand on Zanzibar"
The answer of course is because I have no friends.
