WinFS Gets the Axe

More than that !
Microsoft implemented it in NTFS to be compatible with the Mac FS. I don't think any application made a good usage of it... I know some viruses used to hide their code in there.
AFAIK, NTFS can support metadata too. So in theory NTFS is quite good but on the field it cannot ever compare performance wise to the modern FS available on linux.
If you are French and commit a child abuse *outside* France, you can still be legally prosecuted in France. Even if it is legal to do it in the a foreign country.
Why can't it be the same for outrageous basic human rights violations ?!
Traditional smoker excuse... Cigarette has killed most of my family members so I know this one.
It is a really easy answer. Apply it for *anything* from the terrorist who drive a packed plane in a tower to an heroin addict who kill someone to be sure to get his fix. They just see the life differently, we can't blame them !
So no this kind of irresponsible answer is not valid.
From the same thread again from Linus, he doesn't spare us of a weird view about what science is !
It's like real science: if you have a theory that doesn't match experiments, it doesn't matter _how_ much you like that theory. It's wrong. You can use it as an approximation, but you MUST keep in mind that it's an approximation.
A theory is the best explanation we have for a set of facts, a hole in it doesn't make it suddenly "wrong" if we don't have anything more accurate. (cf weird cosmologic constants and things like that).
A theory beeing an approximation, it is always true.

Damned ! I managed rookies for some time now on java projects... They don't even know what is a computer anymore ! Round tripping to the DB, what is the problem ? Allocating 1GB on the heap, so what ? sorting then filtering a collection, it works no ?
Learn an assembly language, what is a microkernel, how a compiler works and just forget about it the next day and you'll be way smarter than the average developper that have no clue about what they are doing.
My adaware checks are irrelevent since I switched to firefox.
I'm still convinced that it is mostly a question of volume... It takes time to develop a malware, easy math :
should I spend time to develop my evil software for 74% of the ie/win32/x86 or the 11% ff/win32/x86, the 4.5% mac/ppc or the 0.6% linux/x86 ? (stats of gootz.net)
This fact is not relevent to say if linux & mac are more secure but less targets.
Longhorn will offer "the first part of NGSCB: Secure Startup,"
"Secure" as "Secure for Microsoft" you mean ?
The only interesting part has been implemented: don't be able to run/being interoperable with third party OSes.
You need a specific router ? take an old dusty forgotten box, 2 NICs, install a routing specialized linux distro. Tune it at will : there are plenty of iptables scripts available on the web for every game.
IMHO, it is cheaper & more versatile.
earth is not flat : it is probably an illusion, images are fake ! I'm sure ! the Bible never said it was a sphere.
People get burned for that nowadays you know ?

I started to play from scratch 5 months ago dedicating around 1 hour per day for go.
Now I beat gnugo with no handicap more then 50% of the time.
On KGS (http://kgs.kiseido.com/) I'm 14 kyus only. Gnogo is around 12-11kyus on the same scale but I think the last stones are compensated by the fact I subconsciouly know which patterns gnugo are unable to handle.

It is a special law on the subject.
I don't really agree on this one...

Don't say to an Eclipse afficionados that it is IBM dependent or you gonna be bashed.
See Read my lips: Eclipse is independent.

I just read a earlier a long string of bashes around java & Open Office and then this item about Eclipse.
...
Let me tell you this.
A furiously anti-java, C++ist, debianist friend of mine tried it and found it cool for his C++ development !
It is a living demonstration that all that religious wrath around java is a non-sens.
Compared to the usual "Java is slow, Swing stinks, it closed source for playmobile developers."
Eclipse is fast, GTK native, full open-source with a very well done plugin architecture
You even have a full GCJ port for the zealots :
