he was probably told to get things done fast and cheap, and without training. until of course the company gets sued then they realize 'omg wtf we gotta train'
your customers dont give a rats ass what language you use, as long as it works properly.
the owner has a stick up his ass and has lost sight of the purpose of his business - to make a product that people want to use.
not to have his sticky fingers in his old familiar language circa 1996.
of corporation, military, government, and thus you can see which computers are wedded to more fiercly quite easily.
once upon a time i was in college and there was a philosophy/cs 'meeting'. there is a lot to talk about there, concerning questions of consciousness, what is intelligence, what is thought, what is a human being. if you can replicate human intelligence in a computer then a lot of philosophical debates are solved.
several philosophy professors showed up.
zero computer science professors showed up.
the computer science department was moved from the college of arts and sciences to the college of engineering. the administrators running the department had a philosophy that the school was a factory producing workers and leaders for businesses.
if you ask the advisors what to get as a minor, they all say business. any non technical course is considered a waste of time by students and by many teachers.
although i think they got a bit confused between 'leader' and 'worker', because all leaders need to understand philosophy, and many 'breakthroughs' in computers come from outside of 'computer science' itself.
but in the end i think that is a good thing. we dont want computer science to advance very quickly. it is too dangerous. if it cost 500 dollars to build a self replicating robot that could easily kill people, our society is so backwards and barbaric that life as we know it could basically end.
since they frequently leave the 'it' position unfilled for months at a time, and dont care to hire a full timer for it, i think that any fancy software i come up with will fall apart and leave the whole place in tatters while they scramble to find some asshole who will do 50$/hour work for 8$/hour.
thats why my main tool is a legal pad. plus you never have to plug it in, and can write on it when you are hunched under a desk.
we might get Active Directory but im against that too, because they have nobody to maintain it.
youre tire dof getting blame for stuff so you become nazi BOFH.
if all the admins were like you i 1. wouldnt have any experience in computers 2. wouldnt have been able to learn linux in school 3. wouldnt have been able to solve dozens of problems at work
you sir, are the reason that PCs took over from mainframes.
my idiotic stupid friend, your next criteria will be 'no poor people'.
then lets wait a few years, as stinking ghettos pile up filled by the rejected, the outcast, the unfortunate, and anyone else who didnt fit your idea of 'proper'.
until you have ever been one of the 'discarded' you may not understand the problem.
because scumbag pedophiles prey on children, children go missing all over the world every year, rich business men go to southeast asia to visit brothels of underage prostitutes forced into the profession by modern day slave masters, because 'pedophile' has a lot more connotations than "someone who is sexually attracted to children"... by downloading pictures of those children this person has committed an act; these downloads support the creators of such content, and the creators, without question, are harming the children.
legally, perhaps it is not going to 'work' to 'ban child porn'... due to various reasons.
but that doesnt mean 'scumbag' is not an appropriate predicate for 'pedophile'.
and scumbag pedophile apologists, such as yourself, cannot escape the pain caused
these children, by some elaborate argument
and logical house of cards you build
on sand.
yeah, keep em down in their place

make them know what they are good for. dont want them gettin uppity.
the entire justification for playing quake 5 hours is that we need to learn l33t h4x0r skills so that the poor are given food clothing and shelter, and we are gods amongst men
people hiring their friends, their relatives, telling these folks about jobs opening up, putting in a good word, not hiring people because they dont look 'proper', because they are 'different', etc etc etc.
the problems with people being 'afraid of the EEOC' are infinitesimal when compared to the problems of people being 'afraid they cant get a decent job and live like a human being'.
the eeoc is an underfunded agency that routinely has to pass up the opportunity to defend egregiously harmed clients because it lacks staff.
your job depends on huge defense contracts, and yet you feel free to pontificate on the subject as though you had no bias.
your logic is pathetic, your view of history is idiotic, and your perspective is so skewed its a wonder you can get out of bed in the morning without falling down on your right side.
just dont shoot up a mcdonalds when your wife leaves you man (like in falling down)
when will they go to jail?
oh wait, thats 'different'. they only helped kill 6 million people. they didnt do something terrible like log in after you get fired.
No modern respectable physics group would admit a pacifist into their conferences or allow them to publish articles in their journals. Pacifists are considered traitors in modern America.
Einstein would probably be on a 'no-fly' list, have his phones and emails tapped by the NSA, and maybe be put in guantanamo or charged with 'spying for the chinese'.
Furhtermore, Einstein worked at the patent office when he wrote his biggest stuff; science used to be a hobby back at the turn of the century, not a multi billion dollar military industrial complex.
He would basically be laughed out of the system.
Then again, he probably would never join the system, considering that he may have said 'if id known what my theories would be used for (atomic weapons) id have become a shoemaker'
Slashdot Mirror
and mny other people didthe same with tech stock. you wanna shoot with a shotgun watch you you hit (im all for it of course)
yay 1996

oh sorry, too much 'philosophy' again. lolly lol.
you heretic.
to worry about spying on al qaeda.
after all, there are 300 million americans, but only a few thousand al qaedi's.
and all of those americans might be terrorists!
obviosuly the NSA has its priorities straight: spying on the 300 million instead of the few thousand.
we heard this all before in 2000. drastic shortage! everyone get a CS degree!
its a pathetic, and this time 'rah rah america' xenophobic attempt for industry to get cheap labor.
you dont know.. having knowing... knowlbadgle, of, you know, , you cant type.
who gives a shit? dual gpus? are you fucking insane? gamers need to shut the fuck up and realize they arent the only people on the planet.
fellow from an unnamed agency. 'so waht is it exactly you hate about america? and why are you supporting communism?'
oh wait, that cant be right. private industry is infallible
after all, they invented the internet

it just proves that you dont understand the brilliant logic of linux fanboys
