Slahsdot is pretty consistently in favor of the general concept of copyright. It frequently (and still pretty consistently) opposes particular details in some implementations.
Strictly speaking, it's sudo privileges, not root privileges. If someone's willing to type his admin login password into a Java applet, there's probably no saving him anyway.
No, these are the same people who show up whenever the military tries to recruit, by whatever means. They don't care about the means, they just hate the military.
The people in the article, perhaps. The people commenting here, no. At this point, all you have left is putting words in people's mouths. Why do you feel so compelled to construct their opinions and arguments for them? Can't handle what they're actually posting?
someone who only shows off his skills by hacking together a quick version from memory without doing any checks
Why do so many people insist on reading this into AuMatar's argument? I don't recall seeing him say programmers should roll their own; in fact, he says a programmer generally shouldn't.
What I would value far more is not someone who can regurtitate his college days where he memorised line by line an algorithm that you shouldn't be using anyway, rather, someone who can hand code any given algorithm as and when he needs to, when he hasn't previously memorised it
So, it seems you would toss out everyone he would, and then some.
There must be more to the female mate selection process than wallet size, or in about 10 generations, we would become a society of investment bankers (who are doing quite well even with the meltdown).
Yes -- it's not necessarily a search for the superlative case, just that not having resources to provide for a family is a strike against a man in this evaluation.
But a book is a lot more accessible than the instructor at three AM the night before the exam.
I have had times where I emailed the instructor at 3am the night before the exam (or due date, or whatever), and got an answer in time to use it. Meanwhile, I'm still waiting for the book to rewrite itself to include the answer to my question. Maybe I'll have to wait until I can buy the next edition?
it is no guarantee that you actually learned anything other than how to pass the exams
Which is still more than can be guaranteed about the guy with no degree
The longer you have been out of college, the less important the degree becomes anyway. (past experience takes precedent over everything else)
When you're looking for your first job, OTOH, you have no past work experience, and if you don't get a first job, you'll never have any past work experience.
And some people might call you a cynic for dismissing personal experience with human suffering with some set of statistics selected to push your predefined agenda.
Right, if you want to cut down on such suffering, the last thing you should concern yourself with is how prevalent it is...

Nah, it's really nothing new. We've been playing perl golf for how long now?
Cursive is being demoted from necessity to art.
There's always grad school.
I think GP meant bubble as opposed to insertion.
I'd like to take this opportunity to ask why everyone acts like Al Gore is the one who originally proposed AGW.
As it turns out, that 3-5 percent is not trying to make rules limiting the other 96's marriages.

Funny... local law enforcement keeps on coming to us.
AFAIK, the ARRL does not publish a book called the "Ham Guide," so I'm leaning towards "yes, you are making it up" >_>
A few days, actually.

Then auto-hide it.
Fact indeed. Losing connection to the file server should not make other windows unresponsive.
BECAUSE WE'RE SO DRUNK!
Not quite "omg ponies," but close.
You'd be surprised.
While the decision is yours to make, those who deliberately misinform you about that decision do you wrong.
If only I could assume the guy behind me knows to drive this way.
With that qualifier on there, tailgaters definitely are an issue.
My favorite is one of the computer labs at school, where the workstations are named after trees: maple, oak, butternut, redblack, splay, avl, etc.
And the undergrad server is wopr.
