The psychology and social structure of a bunch of disparate programmers who are not on your payroll is a pill just too difficult to swallow, and one that is usually farmed to the bottom of the 'lets do this' pile.
Are we all just difficult pills? Or are we the cure to the boring workplace?

Change the spammer's email environment before it changes you.
Have an email option solely for communication and not for commercial transfer or for selling things.
I guess people/business wouldn't go for that.
So in the future when I dial a phone number, all of a sudden I will be sent to a phishing device asking me for my credit card and social security number? The future is looking up!
Phishing has gone extreme and so have the tactics.
The other day I walked up to what I thought was my bank and looked in only to find an empty lobby with a server and phone switching system behind the counter.
Wikipedia is a free, online encyclopaedia. It uses a model of information where anybody can contribute. Although this leads to some vandalism and some disinformation, almost always an accurate and knowledgeable viewpoint prevails. The project has brought thousands of intelligent people devoted to its cause.
Why should Wikipedia be penalized or criticized for telling the truth about a bad company that exploits its workers and the taxpayer at the same time?
We need more truthfulness and facts in this world, not BS spin and PR from company spokesmen.
"At one point Brown's cryptographer hero Robert Langdon explains the Fibonacci sequence -- a mathematical progression that involves adding a number to the two numbers before, so that 1 is followed by 1, then 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, etc. That sequence, when repeated and substituted with letters from the alphabet, spells out the cryptic message.
"The first letter is identified by rewriting the alphabet stating at the first letter in the alphabet, i.e. for the first letter A When 21 is reached the code reverts back to 1, etc., and repeats that until all the letters are substituted," Smith wrote.

Nice, but those aren't the actual letters in the brief. I'm looking through the brief now to find the actual letters since the editors nor poster could get it right.
Well I guess it would truly be a miracle if someone can break this code!
Reverse the first part to get 'codesmith' and take away the word 'a' & 'exists' from the next few letters
This leaves you with 'Jaeotpcgream' which you will use later.
Take letters on the keyboard next to 'qwfkadpmqz' to get 'asriseonas' which is then combined with 'Jaeotpcgream' to form 'jaeotpcgreamasriseonas'
You take out the words 'to raise a scam' then throw away the rest of the letters.
These words are then rearranged to form the sentence:
'A codesmith exists to raise a scam.'
This card is not a full-blown id chip implant, but it is the first step.
I would be weary of the tracking of these cards.
You start people out on a mandatory ID card, then move to mandatory carrying of the card at all times, then you move to tracking the cards remotely, and then your actions/movements are no longer 'free.'
The winner will get a fancy laptop. We haven't picked the exact one yet, but it's going to be a good one- we're not cutting corners. You'll be able to choose from a MacBook Pro or else a bleeding edge Alienware laptop.
If I win, will it be pre-configured to tri-boot XP-OSX-LINUX?

Consuming coffee has become as ubiquitous as saying 'yes' to your boss. People consume it everywhere, at almost any time.
By default, coffee has become the 'yes' drink when trying to pursuade, second only to Jack Daniel's.
I tell people I bought a 360 for Oblivion. But I really bought it for the ladies of DOA.
When playing DOA, do you use an off-brand joystick?
I tend to send around 300 to 400 emails a day, and that would drive me insane.

As always your contributions help to continue the devlopment of this great opeating system
I suggest a spellchecker, it bears worth repeating.
I remember doing a spyware search and removing Alexa since it was deemed spyware.
You can read this page to figure out how to configure it, or if you can just remove it altogether which was much easier to do.

It's true.

Wiki has drawn a number of activists, like yourself, who have more interest in a given agenda
My only agenda is to discuss the truth, and I admit I am not always right.
From all I have read, Wal-Mart is not a great place to work.
Steve wants Windows applications to run like crazy on his hybrid platform but to look like crap.
I have seen it and, well at least it does run like crazy...

Yeah it was strange, even when you figure it out it doesn't make a lot of sense.
Only a British historian/naval buff would get it.
How can Microsoft invest heavily in china when everyone knows they are better at making windows?
