The beauty of the IDE now-a-days is NOT for the variable type deduction, but for the intellisense. THAT speeds things up tremendously in the COM/.NET world.
Ok, so if the program is smart enough to discover that it's a cracked copy of itself, why doesnt it just not start up and prevent the user from using the cracked copy.

Kinda like spamming - the more you have out there the better the chance of getting paid. And this way, you can find out who to invoice.

Well, the author should have used a better name for it anyway. The code sample more of poor naming example rather than an "or" vs "our" issue.
I was laid off and my position moved to Canada last year
Being an enemployed Canadian in a similar situation, I can sympathize with your loss. I will personally visit said company and discuss this issue with them. Please respond with complete contact details and job description.
linux is already installed and i prefer postgres. i'm missing the Xchat kuz my linux box is for _real_ work. Winderz PC for gaming and pissin' around. MSVC6 is really quite nice and I prefer it to vi with g++.
An XML parser should handle both of these valid situations seamlessly. The XML parser should also perform the document validation, not the application.
The application using the parser should receive the same view of the information and should NOT be accessing the XML directly. The application should concentrate on doing application things. The XML parser should concentrate on the XML manipulation. Be it a structured language with API's or an OOP language. Application layers do wonders.
Scenario: loud mouth archy. student running a trivia script in IRC. Pokes fun at those that can't answer questions.
So, to "level" the playing field, I built a quick & dirty mIRC script that calls a COM object to query a database and automatically/notice 's other channel members the answer for the question. I also switch it in to auto-answer mode when he isn't around. Works _decently_ so far, but mIRC crashes often when calling the COM object. Likely buggy COM implementation in mIRC or i'm using it wrong in the script kuz my test client doesn't crap out.
Meh. Anyone hiring in Canada? I could be doing much better things than this in my "spare" unemploymed time.
I won't use any M$ software or anything related to it for the rest of my life if your Grandfather would like to donate an initial $2.4M and up to $800k for up to 10 years therafter to my private bank account. How's THAT for a deal!!
I started out on a few of the smaller ones & then ran into Nucleus and just stuck with it. Alas, I can't remember any of the names of the smaller BBS either except for one i frequented in Manitoba called CompuTech.

JAVA is not a true competitor to ActiveX in the sense that Company M makes car X and Company N makes car Y.
JAVA: is 1 language, many runtimes for different platforms with different vendors.
COM/ActiveX: is 1 technology/standard (not language) that allows interoperability between code generated from different languages & compilers/linkers. You can use a COM/ActiveX DLL generated by Delphi with MSVC++.
sh*tty back up capabilities (Can't backup if someone's logged in, can't force someone to logout...)
That is strange. Not sure how yours was setup, but if you checked files out for developing, it was irrelevant to the ability to backup the VSS database - same with being logged in. We were logged in 24/7 to our VSS DB and the backup of our VSS DB was always successful.
However, if you were backing up source files from a machine while VCC 6 was running, it would keep locks on the VCC generated class browser index file (and one other i thnk) so they could not be touched but which was also not required for backup.
I love the Dorf series and was looking forward to more crazy shenanigans - "Dorf on Autoracing" was my favorite. "Dorf on Evolution" doesn't seem as exciting.
i was reading comments the other day/week in some story where a distro was mentioned that was designed to boot from CD and doesn't require the HDD for anything, can someone tell me what the name of it was?
I haven't had the pleasure of reading Dune yet(yes... a/.'er that hasn't read it...for shame!!) so perhaps I should and then draw up a matrix showing the similarities.
Amen to that. It's glorified text delimiting. The hypewagon got us, but the "human readable" bit, I think, is the real kicker. no longer do we need to use smaller & more efficient single characters to delimit, we can use a whole word & "write" out a chunk of data fairly quickly. Also, using a whole word lets make the data self-describing. So, yet again, we sacrafice efficiency for bloat & useability, but that may make it more efficient in the end, who knows!

Anyway, thanks for mentioning CORBA for that particular point.
ok. I'll stop buying Strawberry Shortcake stuff if you do.

I'm not sure if below is what you are getting at - please elaborate if not.

The worst thing about cordless phones are the SHITTY NiCad batteries. Stick Lithium Ion packs in 'em and I would bet most of the problems disapear.

No, almost all the posts are tripe...
I wasn't aware that Statler and Waldorf read /.
HAH of course, me only being familiar with the DB side of things, failed to notice there's an 11i appserver or something. My boot is tasty. :)
