  1. Indentation on What Workplace Coding Practices Do You Use? · · Score: 0

    Well of course commenting, good function/variable names are essential, but also i find that it helps alot to keep the way you indent the same. For example before I learned python i used C++ and since indentation was not necessary mine was horrible. Then after learning python I came back to some code that I had made before in C++, and since in python you need to have proper indentation I found it very hard to find my way around the code. I had to go through the whole thing and change the indentation before I could figure out what the code was doing.

  2. Um... on Jobs Offers Free Mac OS X For $100 Laptops · · Score: -1, Redundant

    I think that this is a good idea but how many developing countries will actually be able to afford enoughf of these laptops to supply to each child?

  3. Money? on Blog Software Smackdown · · Score: 0

    It is alot of work + money to make your own blog(if its a good one at least.) I was wondering how many of these thousands of blogs actually make more money then they lose? Or do the creators only want the fame?

  4. Nothing unexpected on Linux Claims 4 of the Top 5 Supercomputer Spots · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    Well this dosen't come as much of a suprise to me. Obviously if you're looking for the best computer you will use linux. The only reason people use Microsoft is because they are more familiar with it.

  5. Hmmm on Cray Supercomputers to be Based on AMD Opterons · · Score: 1, Interesting

    I wonder what the governmnet will do with these cheaper, powerful supercomputers?

  6. The battle against Microsoft! on Teach Yourself Unix in 24 Hours · · Score: 0

    I think that the main reason why people think that Windows is easier to use than Unix is because most people are more familiar with Windows. I have a partion on my hardrive and I use windows XP and Ubuntu. In my opinion Ubuntu is just as easy to use as Windows XP, but it is far more powerfull. When i first started to use Ubuntu I found it frustrating because I was not used to using command line, since it is not often used in Windows. But as I got used to the command line I found that I could easily do things using the command line that would be much more difficult to do in Windows. This bookn is great becuase will help people get used to using Unix, and once people are used to Unix then they would most likely choose Unix instead of Windows.

  7. WOW on Taking Linux On The Road With Ubuntu · · Score: 0

    The makers of ubuntu have done it again. A portable operating system that fits in your pocket. Pretty soon you will have the computer in your pocket that you plug into the monitor.

  8. Is it worth it? on Smart Optical Fibers Could Save Lives · · Score: 1, Interesting

    Aren't already 99% of lazer surgeries succesfull? So will it be worth it to buy and install the new technology to make it 99.9%?

  9. Stupid RIAA on Stiffer Penalties for Copyright Violations · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I think copywrite laws are terrible, the only thing the do is punish teenagers who use the computer to get free songs. The artists who write them already have more money than they know what to do with.

  10. A really clever joke... on Wind-powered Wi-Fi Sensors · · Score: 0, Troll

    In Soviet Russia, the power generating windmills come to you!
