  1. whoop de fricking doo! on Gov't GSA Office goes MySQL · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    MySql wins a contract! lets post a story on slashdot! Why not post a story on why MySql is such a steaming pile of dog shit and how anybody in their right mind would use PostGRESQL instead?

    Yeah, check out the foot note on the author

    wonder which platform he's rooting for? The article was a piece of shit anyways, a few screen caps of the IDE's doesn't make for a good comparison of frameworks.

  3. It all depends on your existing skillset on JSF vs ASP.net · · Score: 1

    I'm a .net developer, and while I'm sure it wouldn't be too dificult to transition to the Java language, I think I'd have the most problems adjusting to the tools. As I'm sure a Java dev would have issues transitioning to .net. I wouldn't know where to start, what IDE should I use? how is remoting/RPC implemented? What build tools, source control systems to use? and so on... .net and java are pretty much mutually exclusive techs, so most of your developers are going to be experts in one or the other. If you havent hired resources yet, then it may do good to see what the market is doing.

    You mention portability as a big concern, IMO its pretty overrated, and very seldomly implemented. if you suddenly find yourself switching platforms, then someone screwed up somewhere down the line in planning. Just my 2 cents.

    Hey mod, eat my shit for modding me offtopic, you're gonna get torn up in meta-mod because you don't understand the question.

    How bout this: The reason why html sucks is because its almost impossible to write an html parser that will write to a device context without having a windowed app.

    Anyone know how to render an html string to an hdc?
    I have a serious question for any ATL developers out there... Are there any good free libraries/code to render html to an hdc *without using MFC*? I've seen plenty of examples that use afx.

    The caption "Chris Moyles is the BBC's most popular podcast" should read "Chris Moyles is a fat cunt with no discernable talent".

    I dunno if I would mod that flame bait, judging from the pic in the article, OP seems pretty informative to me. Really gives meaning to the phrase "has a face for the radio."

  11. A new tier? on AJAX Applications vs Server Load? · · Score: 1

    I'm not the first person to have this idea, but this brings up the question: do we need to define a new tier e.g. something like a presentation services tier? I think so. I'm not going to go into it because its pretty self explanitory; but honestly I don't think ajax is going away and if you are going to make asynch. calls in this fashion, you need hardware to back it up.

    By the way, if the poster is going to put "good but not great" in quotes like the summary has, he better make for damn sure that exact quote is in the article, do a search on the article, no hits. This paractice of paraphrasing in quotes whithout mentioning to the reader has gotten out of control. If I see quotes, I expect to see that exact literal string in there.

  16. Submitter Needs to RTFA on CNN's Game Over On The 360 · · Score: 5, Informative

    when he said "good but not great" he was talking about the games, not the system. Poster needs to learn how to read, very wrong statement.

    But when it comes to must-have games, the Xbox 360 falls short. While there are several good - and even very good - titles that will be available at launch, there's nothing truly great.

    Start plotting the massacre of the east coast branch. You should have plenty of time to do it. 8-9 people, if you secure all the exits and have body armor and fully automatic weapons e.g. M-16, AK-47, you should be able to take everyone at the east coast branch out. Problem solved, west side prevails.



    Seriously though, why the hell would you ask slashdot a carrer question?

    How is SSL completely irrelevant? "Sniffing" can be done anywhere someone gets a toehold in, be it at the client, server, router, proxy, whatever level. There's a lot of hops from a client to its destination, and each of these hops exposes its unencrypted packet.

  21. What the hell is this ho talkin about? on Why Microsoft and Google are Cleaning Up With AJAX · · Score: 1

    Before AJAX, Web apps would have to work around the lack of something like drag 'n drop with check boxes and multiple clicks, resulting in multiple steps that quickly become laborious and time-consuming for users.

    If you want to get an idea of some cool SQL improvements, check out the

    LINQ (Language Integrated Query) project for c# 3.0. Some cool stuff tht i never really thought about.
     
        For example, their select statements go backwords ie from table, select column1, n2, n3 etc... Seems kinda wacky at first, but it makes sense since you really should know what table your'e selecting from before you specify the columns.

    ex.

    public void Linq3() {
            List products = GetProductList();

                    from p in products
