I keep saying it on this article... and I don't think I can say it enough. SVN + SVK. 95% of git/hg with all the compatibility and tools support of SVN.
Don't waste your time. SVN + SVK does nearly everything that git and hg do. Git's merging is a bit better, but the distributed bits, SVK does better, and you have the ability to use all the Graphical SVN tools as well.
Pointless argument. The Eclipse folks only developed a CVS plugin - every other plugin was done by another group, subclipse by the Subversion folks. If the git folks can't be bothered, why should the Eclipse folks? The only adoption being hurt is that of git/hg.
Why would I switch from SVN when with SVK I get the best of both worlds? Compatibility with the vast majority of OSS repos, AND the ability to do distributed VC.
Unfortunately, local governments usually give huge tax breaks to corps looking to set up shop - so you lose that ability to bank "found" money and foster local industry growth.
You're just prolonging the effect. Without government constantly pumping new money into the market, you eventually run out. That's WHY we're off the gold standard and are stuck with this dysfuctional fiat currency.
Which I sort of find a spurious argument anyway. The only keyboard I NEVER had to look at was the one on my Audiovox phone with SMS only (back before they charged for SMS). It had a big knob on the 5 button, so I could find that and every other key without having to even look at the phone.
With the Treo and the blackberry, I *HAD* to look at the keyboard, because the damn things are built for tiny women to use, and not 6' giants with meathooks for hands.
So if I have to look at the screen to see if I'm typing without error, then the keyboard might as well be right there too.
It's more to do with being a specialist vs. being a commodity.
With Microsoft being in the the ERP space now, I expect that software quality and ease of use to go up in the industry overall, just so Peoplesoft, SAP and OAS keep Dynamics from dominating future business.
Except for the fact that Garnet is an aging platform that's struggled (and pretty much succeeded) in remaining relevant in the wireless networked world, the Treo family is a pretty swank set of phones (reliability issues aside). I haven't found anything else I'm comfortable with yet, though the Blackberry Storm might just be it. J2ME and all my favorite Treo features!

Well, do it the way your parents did, rent a projector, cook some dinner and invite your friends to your house.
Work is only marginally a place to enjoy - it's work, after all. You should enjoy what you do, but that doesn't mean I have to bend over and let you do whatever the hell you feel like doing. And yeah, I've been in that position as manager before... paying someone hourly, having a conversation with them that's personal and not about work, slowly realizing I'm talking myself out of $15/h. You come to work to work. When your online music becomes a problem, it goes - certainly the tools and data you need to do your job don't go, and if billy down the aisle can do his job with a 20G hard drive and no music, so should you.
Christ I live in Boston, and it can get hot here, but at the beginning of December when I went to Florida, I turned OFF the AC. I WANTED hot weather... why would I want to freeze in a tropical wonderland? I can do that at home for the next four months.
And that's pointless. If you can take several months to slow down your velocity without needing to do high-speed aerobraking, you don't need ANY heat shielding. Great science there.
Yea, but the world didn't figure that out until the battle of Midway and the unrestricted ASW performed against German subs in the Atlantic. When Pearl happened, the US was still building BBs.

This part of the generic EDI strokefest? Every document is standard, but every document standard is unique?
Lol.

SVK. And you get compatibility with SourceForge repos, and tools like TortoiseSVN and subclipse.

Since a pound is 16 oz, you would need (17x6) 7 pounds of meat.
:-)
Since 6 is not enough.
Seriously, that took a second.

I'm still loving my 700p, but it's an unstable mess compared to the 650p I traded up from.
Prove it. Saleforce.com said the same thing until someone came along and compromised all their customers.

A surgeon and a GP/Internist are not the same thing.

Not true. You can chop a finger off and superglue it to the dike.
This is an eerily appropriate metaphor for what's happened to the financial markets the past few months...

Some Peacekeeper missiles were retasked to satellite launch, so your friend is mistaken.
