Two roads diverged in a yellow wood And sorry I could not travel both And be one traveler, long I stood And looked down one as far as I could To where it bent in the undergrowth
Then took the other as just as fair And having perhaps the better claim Because it was grassy and wanted wear Though as for that, the passing there Had worn them really about the same
And both that morning equally lay In leaves no step had trodden black Oh, I kept the first for another day! Yet, knowing how way leads onto way I doubted if I should ever come back
I shall be telling this with a sigh Somewhere ages and ages hence Two roads diverged in a wood And I took the one less traveled by And that has made all the difference
This guy at work noticed I was using firefox (he's an IE user), and said, slyly, "You know, there's a couple of really bad security holes." Good think FF fixes their holes faster than MS.
They do explain how they get the wild west in the midst of this future time...
Earth is very advanced, other planets were more recently settled than Earth. The farther the planet is from Earth, the more recently it was settled. Joss showed this by having the "outer planets" be a bit untamed. Also, being farther away from Earth means being farther away from the government and police, so that's where the bad guys tend to be.
As it turns out more people however actually run programs than write them, so platform portability is in fact more useful.
As it turns out, Java apps are so slow and ugly that hardley anyone uses them.
First, What the heck do you call an industry standard? By your conventions, I coud say: "Look at those Penguins, abandoning the industry standard for desktop OS's (Windows) and making their own (Linux). To me, industry standards are not owned by a single company.
Second,
Java and.Net (although both have VMs) have two completely different goals. The primary goal of Java VM is to be "write once, run anywhere." This is not part of.Net's goals..Net's CLR was made 1) to implement code security 2) to increase productivity by taking care of plumming issues such as garbage collection 3) to reconcile the disparities between languages
You forgot Greasemonkey. that's my fave after Adblock and Flashblock.

ROAD LESS TRAVELED
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth
Then took the other as just as fair
And having perhaps the better claim
Because it was grassy and wanted wear
Though as for that, the passing there
Had worn them really about the same
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet, knowing how way leads onto way
I doubted if I should ever come back
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence
Two roads diverged in a wood
And I took the one less traveled by
And that has made all the difference

Now that's a Frost post.

Wasn't this what the Patriot II Act was supposed to do?
I bet this guy's a /. reader.
All your code are belong to us!
Dude... it's a series, they all have "Garage" in the title.
alive and iteresting + dinosaur and scary bird = real life Jurrasic Park!
...not! Check you're threshold :-
Scary, but I don't think it could ever happen in the good old US of A
... or Interstate Exploder

I stand corrected... cell phone games. Yeah, Java kicks C's butt and Sun kicks MS's.

Second,
Java and
What a slippery slope MS is headed down!
