Development time, anyone?

I've used PHP for years. It was good.
But if I take a look at my code from then:
... that looks like it was designed by a pack of drunken
monkeys.

Yes, I was not a good programmer back then. But as time passed by, I grew up and saw that PHP sucked, even as I tried to use some development standard, I got no help from PHP.
Then I started to use Rails. Oh my god, how happier I am now. How coding flows better.
And just to say I'm not fair comparing a framework to a simple language, I've tried CakePHP and it is plainly ugly (compared to Rails).
I'm yet to try Symphony, that may change my mind. But I really don't think so.
And finally, about performance, do you have like thousands of users? DO you really need scalability? Then use Java.
I've made some servlets in Java a long way back. It was scary. Then I discovered PHP. It was a lot faster and happier.
I've started to feel the same about PHP (spaghetti code anyone?). Then I discovered Ruby on Rails. Now I'm happier, my intestines work better and even my skin looks healthier.
Just kidding, but Rails, after you've learned it, does a job much better then PHP (I've even tried Cake PHP) and things are done a lot faster.
No politicians here in Brazil are plain dumb and have no idea of what the internet is. Unlike Al Gore which created the internet our politicians are plain dumb.
Here if you want a high speed connection (cable or ADSL) you must contract the cable or telephony company and also a content provider. This content provider is the one who should give you the content of the internet, not the server hosting that.
Even though many people showed that traffic never went through the content provider, Anatel (National Telecommunications Agency) thinks we need to pay some people for the work they don't do.
So please, take Lula and a bunch of brazilian politicians with Saddam.
Yeah, he should be in prison for life. And in his cell, he should have a television playing Sponge Bob Square Pants (or put your choice of stupid cartoon here) 24/7.
There is Savage, which I ran better on Linux than on Windows (and so, deleted my windows version). It is free (as in beer) and fun (for a while at least).
There are also a bunch of shooters (noiz2sa and rrootage, and others from the same programmer) which are very nice too.
There are emulators for linux (mame, vba, psx...)
Also I have made a psx controller adapter to my parallel port, which works out of the box, and in windows I had to get drivers, not signed by MS.
So I don't think Linux is that much behind in games, unless you only want to run the latest blockbuster.
Mozilla also wants to see the changes Debian makes on Firefox before they hit the users.
Imagine that Debian put some malicious code on it's Firefox package. All Debian would have spyware or trojans as if they were using IE. Who would be blamed? Mozilla, of course, because you are using Firefox.
I can't imagine running any other distro on a server. Why does a server needs X? Most distros install X by default. This sounds like Windows to me.
You say you can't run anything new in Debian. You certainly don't know the bauty of the apt-get suite.
Anyway, easier, just upgrade to testing.
When I got mad at Woody for it's old packages I moved to Gentoo. Took a whole lot of time to have a system running. After a while I went back and moved to testing. It is working fine for me.
I recommend the PC site
www.programming-challenges.com
which has a judge just like uva, but it has a better interface. You send your source code and after a few seconds you get a message (OK, no, and maybe a few info on no's).
well it is not imoral nor illegal. He just showed that MD5 has become weak for today's computation power (or his brain power).
Too bad you use MD5 for your work. But at least he showed that MD5 is weak before anyone do something which could damage your work. And thus give you time to select another encryption/hashing method to secure your work.
Or would you rather learn that MD5 is weak the painful way?

There is the PLEAC (Programming Language Examples Alike Cookbook) which uses (or should use) the same examples for many programming languages.
Many languages are close to complete the provided examples.
Then you should take a look at railsday.
Nice apps there. Written in one day.
I have to disagree to 10 and 14.
10. I hate Java (it sucks).
14. I'd rather use Debian, Gentoo or Slack.
The rest is fine by me.

I beg to disagree. There are lots of lectures notes and there are a few videos of the lectures.
I saw a 50 min video of the Linear Algebra class and I understood QR decomposition. My professor took 3 100min classes and I couldn't get it.
In fact a lot of courses have close to 0 material, but it is absolutely not useless.
A friend told me it is also on Pornotube or something.
Wouldn't larger tubes be easier? Or even more tubes?
Anyway, you can sell GPLed programs. You just need to provide the source code.
And anyone who buys it, may redistribute freely.

Wow,
how many tubes do you need for that?
I've seen this done with a mirror. Worked well for an arm.

Now this is what I call punishment.
Or maybe, just a picture of goatse.

This is what Mozilla is trying to prevent.
Heh huh, backdoor!

I'd like to see some ISO 14000 code.

Yes, in Brazil we have a president who lets his comrades go away with hundreds of thousands of ill gained US$ in their underwear.
here in brazil we play soccer with coconuts
It is said that whichever n you start this function, you'll eventually get to n = 1.
Even tough nobody's been able to mathematically prove that.
