Well actually it is not as easy as it seems, because each page had a design of its own. I mean, writing a crawler to go through Google's results list (or any other service that indexes pages) is quite a simple task. But the problem here is that apparently members could customize their journalspaces which means that unless the HTML output was standardized, it would be hell to try to get some sense out of each page.
No, wait, you must be joking. I presume you are joking, it's April's fools in Europe already. Where exactly did you get the 51% number? Of the "physical scientists"? How about metaphysical ones? How about self imagined ones?
When asked for proof scientists will say those things? What scientists? That is just plain aberrant beyond any drug induced reason. Evolution is supported by fossils, by the genetic drift, by gene flow, by artificial hybridization and one of the most important, by speciation.
How the hell can anyone get from evolution to creating life in the lab?
ZOMG RLY? WILL DO KTHX BAI!
I believe that the only thing wrong with/. is allowing people like you to post around. But that is just me. Ow wait, I have mod points. Mod me down, but I enjoyed doing this. (no I haven't modded and posted in the same thread. yet.)
Separation of code and presentation can be done by using a templating system. Smarty is a popular one, although it's often criticized, and there are a lot others around as well. FastTemplate, although old, is also a choice.
Most of the frameworks mentioned above are built fanatically on MVC, so this separation is imperative.
Not to start a little argument over PHP and Python, but you're comparing apples with oranges here. You are saying that PHP is insecure, its semantics are undesirable and so are its standard libraries, database interfacing, interpreter and performance, and then you come along saying how awesome Django is, disregarding that actually you're comparing a language with a framework.
There are a handful of decent PHP frameworks out there, with others coming along, which you can take and compare with Django, but please don't bash the language because you don't like its semantics, you have something personal with it or you didn't take the time to choose a decent framework.
Regarding the database interfacing support, I beg to differ, I believe PHP has been supporting a large number of databases for a longer while than most of the other web scripting languages out there today.
I don't know about that, i haven't seen anything on TV regarding that, but OLPC is regarded as "just an expensive toy" within the Senate and the Parliament. Members of those houses can easily beat Ted Stevens with stupid affirmations. One of the counter-arguments for OLPC was that the entire country needed to be wired so internet could be provided. Weird thing is that the OLPC laptop has a wireless card.
Anyway, politicians are just a load of crap in Romania, just like everywhere else. I guess hell would freeze over if they ever had any idea what are they talking about.
As a side story, the president and the prime minister are in a bit of war, and they both try to cancel each other out.
Uh, what? Fuck that shit. I live in Romania since I was born and the level of technical education is nothing close to high. Most of the IT professionals I know are either self taught, either have gone to university to another country.
But what the president said it's true. And you should have seen the "WTF did that dude just say" look on Billie's face.
Actually, IE7 is THE solution. Don't confuse it with Internet Explorer v7. IE7 is the best tool a modern web developer can have. It's a JavaScript library that automatically convert standards compliant modern CSS to IE 5+6 workarounds so you can code your pages using clean W3C-compliant CSS2+3 and XHTML and your pages will work fine in IE 6, IE 5.5 and even IE 5.0. It's magic!
I don't know what you've been smoking, but I want that too.
You don't want to fork your project, keep it for your bloody self... How could the code be free if you prevent it from evolving in various, now unthinkable ways?
Short answer: No. Not-so-short answer: A-a. Long answer: Nope.
Regardless the computing power you need to firtsly understand *all* the chemical processes behind a life form (take a bacteria for example). Which is impossible with today's, or for that matter, this century's science.

Totally agree. When I work the last thing I want to do is manage the interface. As along as it stays the hell off in a corner, compact and not randomly grouped, it's good. When it spawns 12 damn windows all over the screen I feel I could curl up and die.
i couldn't find a way to get photoshop to resize an image and preview what the image was going to look like.
Image > Image Size. To preview you can do whatever you want: save a copy, save for web, print preview.
Seriously, I'm a relatively recent 24/7 Linux user but I tried to use Gimp on Winnie as well for a pretty long time and I can only come to this conclusion: Gimp's interface is brain damaged, it lacks usability, it's not made for speed editing. No graphic designer will want to waste time looking for a function buried deep down in a weirdass menu.
Ow, and has any of the Gimp makers ever tried to work with Gimp and a few other programs (say, two) in the same time. If they did I guess their fingers started bleeding, just try and you'll see why.
I'd really want an open source tool I could work with which would resemble Photoshop's functionality, but there really are no options (no, GimpSHOP does not count either, it's just not fast and clean enough). Photoshop is just one of those rock solid, good software applications, and there's nothing anyone can do about it.
Explain everything in simple concepts, ditch unnecessary ones. For example I found out that people tend to always confuse hard drive space with memory, so I chose to simplify things a bit, dividing everything in two main categories:
1. Components which cost you a lot of money and you get in touch with them rarely
CPU, RAM, mainboard, etc
2. Components which can be easily upgrade-able and you bump into them most of the time
HDD, optical unit, video card, etc
I used this approach when I explained how a computer works to my uncle and he has never asked me anything computer related since. It must be working...
