"Once you leave the UK you realize that most of it is very old fashioned and conservative. It needs to change and modernize, but will have to be dragged kicking and screaming all the way." -yep, i'm hoping this referendum has shaken the apathy out of the rest of the UK for change. They can't even reform the house of lords because of all the old fossils not letting go of the past
sounds a bit like the way microsoft and apple do business, the 3 E's - so why should they get away with it and not car dealers after all the market should be open
well, that GUI probably exhibits all the same worries about the "UNIX" way as systemd is supposed to regarding "do one thing........" and you can't enhance it with use of scripts...
The "no" campaign had a difficult task because Salmond was been making a load of promises with nothing to back it up e.g. saying they'll have sterling currency union even though he's been told by UK government it won;t happen, auto acceptance into EU etc etc
so they've had to refute these claims so it comes over negative. Salmond has created the emotional cry for independence where the No campaign have had to use the intellectual approach which always loses against emotions because a lot more people make emotional decisions rather than considered ones.
Moving the nukes to a UK port will have the same effect as leaving them in Scotland except Scotland site is a good one for escape to the atlantic. There are more worrying things coming out of the "Yes" campaign than location of nukes.
its all down to a bunch of whiners who might have to learn something new so they trash it without really understanding it. They should read this until they understand it http://0pointer.de/blog/projec...
COBOL has been a dead end for more years than i care to remember and yet it still lives...... I got my first experience of a proper DE in the mid 80's with MicroFocus COBOL's workbench, it was brilliant, it sped up development and you could create programs starting at the Working Storage section, the first inline debugging i'd ever come across.. ahhh they were good days.
i understand that but i'm talking criminal acts with a specific victim. i still hold that if the information is true and in the public interest then it should be out there. if the patsie is caught doing illegal things to get this info he/she should go to jail.
no-one should get off on a technicality if the illegally captured info is actually true and correct, it should be used and the person who did the wrongful capture should be seriously penalised in some way.
of course it was bad interpretation. "Survival of the fittest" and "selective breeding" are not eugenics (which was a popular idea in the US and other places before hitler). Darwinism, as you want to call it as a derogatory term, does not say anywhere that you exterminate a particular population. Hitler supporters want to call it Darwinism rather than the antisemitic genocide that it was. Your view of darwinism is about as credible as creationism.

thats the current state of affairs but i don't think it'll be that in a few years time

but its still not the "do one thing...." UNIX ideal. i'm still waiting for my systemd to break and kill the machine, its not happened yet

Scotland might lose all that oil if the Orkneys/Shetlands independence movement ever gets going..

is that with or without a GUI ?
I take it you don't use an GUI desktop at all then
"Meanwhile, khakis are $25 and a polo shirt is $15. It's simple math, folks. 40 is less than 300 by a wide margin. "
so you are going to wear 1 shirt and 1 pair of trousers all year.... yuck

repeat that to me when you become a victim of a serious criminal act and you see your perpetrator get off on a technicality
no-one should get off on a technicality if the illegally captured info is actually true and correct, it should be used and the person who did the wrongful capture should be seriously penalised in some way.
