Yet at the same time, you come to understand the hardware issues in a more and more straightforward way since with Linux (and GNU) you have the possibility of helping yourself.
I fail to see the value in "understanding the hardware issues". I want to watch Battlestar, not pretend like I'm at work.
That shell script is a good start. You have to run it after each boot, since it modifies a cryptographically signed plist. (If you're interested, you can figure out how to use OS X's plist utilities to change the plist's cryptographic hash)
No, that was a pretty crappy "fix". I want my "Unsorted" folder icon to open a Finder window, like it did in every other OS X release before Leopard. Not a 500 item long list of files. I currently have a shell script set up to change a plist file and kill/restart the Dock at boot. I haven't been interested enough in changing the plist's cryptographic hash, so OS X won't "fix" my changes at boot.
I dunno... why should there be perpetual ownership of property.
This doesn't answer my question. I am a voter. I want to know what I am getting out of granting, for example Disney, the exclusive right to copy and distribute hundred year old cartoons. Convince me.
It might as well be. There have already been two copyright extension acts, and the Supreme Court has decided that there is no upper bound on the number of extensions. Yes, perpetual is the right word.
No problem. My intention was to parody the kind of person who wants to stop the spread of knowledge. Mexicans were an easy "target" for my "character", since they are already a hot topic, and people who complain about them discredit themselves in my mind.
Yes, the site is a great idea. Mankind is destined to visit the stars, and Mars is our second step. A manned mission to Mars has the potential to provide us with limitless knowledge about the origins of life, and can provide practical experience that can help make traffic to Mars routine.
My only concern is that NASA won't be blocking foreign nations from visiting their site. I, for one, don't want my tax dollars paying for Mexicans to learn about Mars.
That's a pain in the ass. Why bother implementing something like that, poorly, when SQLite does it already? I have a life, and sometimes it needs a small database. It doesn't need to write a small database.
No, he's completely wrong. A relation is a subset of the Cartesian product of sets. And one can form the Cartesian product of a set with itself. For example, the plane is realized by the product RxR.
Nuts to that. The true significance of the halting problem is to demonstrate that a class of problem exists for which no solution can ever be provided even with infinite computation.
The halting problem (alone) doesn't do that. You can model Turing's oracles as computations at limit ordinals, and a single oracle is sufficient to solve the plain old halting problem. Then again, the argument can be adapted to show that oracle machines have insoluble problems. (And that there is no last ordinal, and that uncountable sets are bigger than little omega, and so on).
A program that depends on Goldbach's conjecture for its validity over all inputs isn't particularly absurd. Have you never written a program that decomposes natural numbers into a sum of primes? Never? Wow, you must write pretty boring programs. Additive prime decomposition is a straightforward way to partition a space for combinatorial problems.

So what if it is "simple entitlement"? Why should we grant copyright holders perpetual monopolies?

I remember that. I was 12, and despite having a Falcon 3.0 and Doom 2 playing 486 SX/33, I thought those nerds were stupid.

Yes. It got boring after Lito killed L. Death Note needed more Rasengans, and maybe some Devil's Fruits.
RRRRRRRASENGAN!

YAML Ain't a Database. You're thinking of YAAD.

If that's your only complaint, you should switch.

Unbounded and infinite are not synonyms.

Only if you max out the RAM.
