    Not to mention the government requires all contractors be CMMI level 3 certified which ups the costs a lot..... you pay for the quality of the code... not to mention I am sure the contract includes ownership of the code and IP involved

  3. Re:A new kind of TV...... on Sony Racing Apple To Develop 'a New Kind of TV' · · Score: 1

    Apple has over 1000 employees whose entire job is designing their Apple modified ARM chips. They create the hardware and send it out for mass production....that is how an American electronics manufacturer does it. Design, Engineer, Prototype, Test....then go to SEA, set up a factory, train the workers, and let someone else take all the employment liability of mass production.

    You have no fucking clue what you are talking about. An underwater mortgage is a loan that is still in good standing with the bank but its principle is greater than the market value of the home. That has nothing to do with a person's ability to pay for the home. From my perspective...as the owner of a property that is underwater, it is the fault of the banks for giving loans to people who could not afford them just to get another load to sell to wall street.

    I will cheer when he forces the banks to write down the difference between what the market value and the balance of under water mortguages is so the housing market can begin moving again. The banks fucked it up so they should fix it.

    You're a fucked up bastard. Like all fucked up bastards you are likely using extremism of your POV to mask your secret desire to engage in the activities you claim so much to hate.

    That is just political hackery for the fools who make up the base of the Republican party

  11. Nate Silver on Slashdot Asks: Whom Do You Want To Ask About 2012's U.S. Elections? · · Score: 1

    He did such a good job of analyzing the 2008 election, I would like a good Slashdot interview of him to discuss his methodologies and what challenges he has when performing political analysis... as well as how the NY Times buy-out of his blog has affected what he publishes.

  12. Re:JavaScript... or HTML DOM? on Analyzing StackOverflow Users' Programming Language Leanings · · Score: 1

    There is nothing intrinsic to interpretation that makes it inherently different than any other "style" of preparing a program to run on a CPU.

    Interpretation is just another method.

    What makes JS suck ass is the language construction, not the method of running the code.

    See... what you people don't understand is that when classifying a system of governance, there are different levels of classification.... representative democracy is a TYPE of democracy....thus... when talking about our system is general... we are a democracy... only when someone wants to make a distinction between two different democracies does the fact that we are a representative democracy matter.

    maybe a zoological example.....A rainbow trout is a fish.... when I am holding it and someone asks me what it is... I will likely tell them it is a fish....it is not precise, but it is precise enough to communicate the key details that all fish have in common.
