Me too. I am totally burned out on technology. Maybe one of these days I will get a cell phone. My buddy taking a picture and sending it to his GF was pretty cool.
Are you some kind of idiot? In a few years some other guy will be in this guys position and will have a different take. When I say fragmented, I mean 100 different domain controllers and methodologies, and ever changing management.
You sound just as bad as the MS apologists. The fact of the matter is you can deploy decent solutions in either open source or closed source, and if you know anything about IT problems in govt you would realize that neither will cure the disease that ails it. You open source guys sound really needy more than anything.
It has also blown up several rockets and caused other havoc.
Why is this? Because 99% of these systems were done in closed source. If they were done in open source than open source applications would be blowing up pipelines and rockets.
Too true... i came off of struts and tag libraries to.net and it was/is a much better environment. I am not sure what the state of the art is in Java any more but I am glad I switched.
Classic ASP is a horror from hell and I think soured many from using MS web solutions.
Calculations suggest that a total nuclear exchange with the USSR during the hight of the cold war would of killed only a third of the worlds population. 'Survive' is a mighty broad term. Would it be possible to eradicate the entire human race?
The flip side to the dumb arbitraryness of govt work is that you will never get in trouble if you follow the rules. This guy should of just billed the extra time to set up printers and been happy he had a job. What an idiot.

Interesting that at the time Clinton was called a hero for killing a pork barrel project.
a black hole is a convienient place to put colliding hardons
ghey!
before I knew what a nerd was we enjoyed listening to Kraftwerk. I guess that makes me old.
Well duh, it's not like NASA has phds in a machine shop turning out turbines for a rocket motor. It is common sense that they 'outsource'.

Really? What is it? I thought the VS teams job was to promote the use [and purchase] of VS and not prop up Windows sales.
Ummm right. MS would make a ton of money porting VS to linux.

Govt. IT is highly fragmented. It took 20 years for DOD to switch to all-diesel. How long to switch to open-source?
Wouldn't a small business just have it hosted somewhere? Having your own server is so 2000.....
We run 50+ applications on our server instance with no problems. ASP.net is nowhere near as fragile as the old asp.

MS also had the fastest java runtime back in the day. It isn't suprising that there .net compiler is also very fast.
Okay you have convinced me....
I for one welcome our cousin-fucking overlords!
Its easy for geeks to take the moral high ground since nobody would ever sleep with them much less get married. Here's to knocking off a peice!
By your rational marrying your sister would be okay if you never met her before (adopted, whatever). Pretty creepy if you ask me.
I would fuck his cousin too but necrophilia is illegal.
mods, use your points here
Maybe because it is not on the news.google or news.yahoo pages any more? I don't see how you can call this disinterest.
A certain percentage of the population has a high resistance to radiation damage. Radioactive contamination won't wipe everyone out.

I call these 'Heisenbugs'
What has also been missed is that recumbants don't perform very well in the mountains.
