And I've yet to see a codebase where it was not consistent at least on file level.
The project I'm working on right now (with a team of 8 others working on various parts and several people working bugs) has variation in indentation and line breaks. (K&R, 1TBS [my favorite], and even some Horstman) It's simple for me to read the code because it doesn't matter if they use spaces or tabs I can still see the differentiation. Many of the files have combinations of tabs and spaces (I have whitespace characters enabled) depending on who last touched that particular method to fix the bug related to that file.
I mainly program in curly brace languages for a living and I have to say, I wish most of them had collection loops similar to the higher level languages. I end up coding each() methods by hand so I don' t have to deal with for(i = 0; i some.length; ++i) {}
Because not everyone uses the same indentation as everyone else. If indentation rules need to be worked out before starting a project, you're wasting more time than a language where indentation has no meaning.
If you consider the XBox a PC... I guess that's one. But for "some x86 PCs are locked down" to be factual or a counter-point there's gotta be more than just this one instance.
Cows are fattened in massive pens, on grain, standing in their feces.
What you just described is a field pasture.;)
Seriously though, if a cow standing in it's own feces bothers you, I don't know what to tell you. I grew up in a rural area and I can tell you that many farm animals walk around in their own waste. Local farm markets and "natural" food shopping will not change that. There was a chicken coop that we tore down and the floor was chicken waste 3 inches deep over concrete for "free range" chickens. This was a 40 acre farm used for a few local houses with excess going to a co-op. Not huge by any standards.
I do love how you argue that the cost of food is no excuse and use subsidization as the reason. You know subsidies come from taxes, potential other spending, or potential tax reduction? All it does is hide the cost of the food and distribute it to everyone in the country.
Would it be considered hosting the file if you generated it at the time of request? When a request comes in, you build a "website/XML file" that contains those links. You aren't actually hosting a file, just generating a web page?
It's a possibility... if nobody is looking for an alternative. Look at alternative power today. If people weren't all up in arms about oil, the research money wouldn't be spent on something we didn't want (because we have oil...)
States Rights. The "Union" wanted to impose Federal law on all states and The Constitution set up States to be like little countries with no trade restrictions and a common defense force. The "law that broke the camels back" was the slavery issue, but it was more about the States being able to make their own laws and letting the Federal Government do what it was intended. Protect the States, protect the People from the States, and resolve disputes between them.
When the southern states seceded to form the Confederacy, the Republicans decided it was an act of treason and rebellion.
Perhaps you can read up on the Civil War a bit yourself.
I am so sick of fucking skeptics. There are plenty of reasons why the President would need to speak to the entire country, immediately, that aren't "kiss your ass goodbye".
Re-election campaign? I'm having a hard time coming up with a reason why everyone would need to be informed at the exact same time for any particular message. They used to do those announcements at my former workplace when they were cutting jobs.
Not that I'm disagreeing, but why would you need 'null' and 'undefined'? I think it leads to easily to trinary conditions. If your object is empty, undefine/delete it.
It also has meaningful white space (ala. Python) That's a non-starter for me, personally. I already have fun times with people deciding if they want to use tabs or spaces in their code. To make them meaningful just adds another pain in the ass.
To be perfectly honest, I don't think it makes sense to confuse integers with boolean values. If you want it to be not 0, use (something != 0). Is it really that hard to say "if (myValue != 0) {...}" instead of the somewhat cryptic "if (myValue) {...}"? Is myValue a undefined? Is it 0? I find it interesting that people who use a strongly typed language accept that an int can also be a boolean.
Coming in January, my brother, father and myself will be driving about 16 hours to Florida because both my father and brother want to avoid the TSA. I'm going because they'll be driving past my town and I figure they could use a break from driving. I've done that 16 hour drive when I was younger, but now I couldn't imagine.
There are buses and trains here... but they are the most uncomfortable (hard plastic seats), and unpleasant (cramped and or standing room only) way to travel unless you get into the long distance rail/buses and those aren't normally reserved for daily commutes.

It's really not that bad to work with the differences in formatting. I thought it would be a nightmare, but it has generally been a non-issue.

Excessive ending block braces tell me there's probably a good chance of refactoring some code.

...some x86 PCs are locked down..
Really? (Genuinely curious if you have a link for that...)
The only problem is that some people don't care if it stuck. The charge is usually more than enough evidence for them.

I'm sure you probably could... wasn't it Colbert that was talking about Anonymous PAC funds about a month ago?
...I will not responsible for my actions.
So you are the CEO?

You know there were northern slave owners too, right? The Civil War was taught to us as a war on slavery, but there was much more to it than that.

It doesn't matter what angle you look at a Pontiac Aztec, it's still as ugly as it was when they first rolled it off the line. (?)
