If you are running an emergency service on Windows, you are an idiot. The EULA says that it should not be used when lives depend on it, and ambulance dispaching would certianly count. And if Quickbooks didn't work on whatever the dominant operating system of the time was it wouldn't be bought.
I think the regex syntax change is aimed at reducing the line-noise quality of regexes, as well as making them more expressive. The interpreter change is mostly aimed at pooling the skills of the Perl, Python, and Ruby communities. Even if it looks like a lot of effort now, it will pay off a lot later.
Number 2 really isn't desirable. The overhead would be quite painful for a lot of programs that need realtime performance. Also, clearing ram is desirable sometimes, such as when a program fails to maintain an invariant and then goes into an infinite loop. If the variable is persistant and nonvolitile, we have problems. Also, some data *shouldn't* be persistant, like passwords.
Ok, I'll bite.
The oil company drilled a borehole next to the volcano. When the borehole exploded it provided a vent for the mud to flow out of. According to This site the oil company was not following standard operating procedure designed to minimize the risk of this kind of event.
the bill survives committee intact. Do not contact your Representative or Senator to ask them to support the bill until after it makes it through committee! Otherwise you could be supporting a bill that's completely different from what you think it is.
Health insurance is more efficent if more people purchase it. If you don't require everyone to get it, only those more likely to become sick do, driving costs up.
Antiglobalization has been around for years. Also, I think the Trusted Computing Platform is a good thing overall. It lets me prevent an OS hole from opening up my files. It doesn't help DRM that much. It lets me avoid keyloggers. It works on all platforms. The issue is that micrsoft is trying to confuse it with NGSCB/Palladium, which is evil. Look at this site from IBM for more information.
The McCoy automatic oil dispenser is very simple. It's also very hard to come up with unless you know how it works. It's a simple, nonobvious invention.

But do they regulat the Bible? Genocide, rape, incest, human sacrifice, the list of nasty stuff goes on.
That's because sony got people to click 'I agree' before busting the computers.
Lisp, J, O'caml, Erlang, Smalltalk all look like safe languages to write in. And yes, they have operating systems in Lisp.
CS is the math. SE is the engineering. 3D stuff I think would be an art of some sort.

Why bother? He should just roundhouse kick it shut!

I read her books, and they turned me into an anarcho-syndacist. Because that's what the society at the end of Atlas Shrugged is.

If you really cared about software quality, would you be using windows? After all It isn't man-rated, it isn't really thing-rated, and we don't claim that it's worth a good G*dDamn for anything at all, at all.
You're comparing apples and oranges, my friend. The school doesn't offer abortions, and kids don't need permission to take aspirin outside of school.
How would attacking the husband make the wife look bad?
We wish it would go away as we pick up after it all the time.

Oh, come on. MMIX beats all other instruction sets hands down! Now we just need to get it into sillicon.
AllofMP3.com is paying the royalties. All the artist has to do is ask for them from the licencing authority in russia.
How many lusers will buy the upgrade edition, then after it crashes buy the full edition? I think MS will get a lot of bad press from this.

I don't think juries take kindly to the LART defense.
Anyone can set up DNS records to point at your machine from .xxx
Now we know what's with the Mold in God's Eye!

The constitution disagrees with you.
