Neverless, you should always show respect to non-English speaking people and not be condescendant toward them like a comment in the body of the original post where a guy says programmers who do not speak English are not that good. Wow! What a asshole!...
Agreed! It's especially ironic because they made at least one glaring error in English grammar in their condescending post!
The deadline elevator is a good idea anyway when your system uses LVM or has a RAID. The default elevator tries to optimize I/O request scheduling based on the location of the disk heads. When the system is not reading/writing directly to a physical device (i.e. when there's a software (LVM) or hardware (RAID) layer in between the kernel and the disk), it really doesn't have any idea where the disk heads are and usually guesses poorly. Deadline will make sure as many processes as possible are responsive.
As an architect who frequently evaluates open source software libraries, I'm actually less interested in the size of the community than the activity level of the software baseline itself. If the CM repository is active and the library has enough documentation for me to figure out how to use it in an hour or two, I'll consider it for use.
Of course, a web application has slightly different considerations than a software library, but an active software baseline and sufficient documentation still go a long way...
h4rr4r is correct. You used the phrase "second world," which is a term that originated during the Cold War to refer to the communist countries of the Warsaw Pact. There is no need for you to get defensive and derogatory when someone points out an error in your posting. Furthermore, the current status of the Cold War has no bearing on the meaning of well-known phrases that originated from that era, making your "Move on" comment equally inappropriate.
Maybe we need to start another effort to re-energize the teaching of history and the English language.:)
I use Unison to synchronize data between 5 user accounts across 3 computers, all running Mac OS X, and I'm very happy with it. I set up a LaunchAgent from each of the user accounts to automatically run a Unison profile periodically, and that profile can also be run from the GUI tool if so desired.
The Cocoa interface can be disabled if you're writing a script to run in the background. There is a "-ui text" flag to the command line tool (/usr/local/bin/unison) that will prevent the Cocoa GUI from being shown, and also a "-batch" flag that keeps it from expecting user input. Finally, an "-auto" flag will accept the default action for any files without conflicts.
And no, I'm not affiliated with the author.;)
Calling Creationism/ID a scientific theory is incorrect. Since it cannot be proven or disproven by the scientific method, it is not science but faith. In the words of Wolfgang Pauli, it is "not even wrong."

Seen as "somewhat computer illiterate," read as "Windows."
I know a lot of OSX users that fit that description.
The OP also said "dialup" and "malware" so I still read as "Windows." :)

That's what I did, and have been stress free for years. :)
Stupid choice. I guess I will just endeavor to avoid namespaces altogether.
Does this mean that writing "eval" statements in regular expressions would have to be triple-escaped then?
preg_replace("/oldtext/e", "ns\\\pick_new_text()");
That makes my head hurt.
