    GROWN ? Boy, if we are talking about the 'web', it is on the brink of ascending into supernatural dimensions, growth and 'lore' wise.

    It has become a connection that binds us who are all over the world, it has become a revealer of truth that uncovers the hiddens in the doings of wrongdoers, it has become a place that chinese and canadian and namesoever teenagers come play in, it has become a place where we can find anything in, it is reshaping politics, nations, lives, even inner thoughts of people.

    'It' is actually 'us'. We are the web.

    During the course of history, people who did great service to 'the people' have always been acknowledged 4-5 generations after, and even after they died. This was generally due to short-sightedness of community those days.

    But we are living in a more cohesive, more in-the-know and connected civilization these days. So it is natural that good things are recognized in their due time.

    and avoid them like hell. Anything done under such debatable license, and anything done in conjunction with microsoft, i would avoid like hell.

    Microsoft is not trustable in my opinion, in regard to freedom of anything. This is no 'j00B micro$oft eviLLaZ' type of thought - it is based on practical reasons : microsoft have never been a trustable ally in matters related to openness, freedom, and it is fat chance that they will - with all those shareholders.

    So, i would avoid them like hell, and advise all my colleagues to do so always.

  16. Perl, Linux, small business, and a little php late on Choosing Your Next Programming Job — Perl Or .NET? · · Score: 1

    Choose this pal.

    This area is a booming area, and it will boom continually as it is being adopted as the basis for open standards, and open business. heck, oscommerce is becoming a genre of 'programming' by itself, with oscommerce coding specialists out there.

    this avenue will guarantee that in future you will be able to choose from hordes of similar job offers, WHEREVER you want. and you can do contracts over the internet too, more than .net route.

    .net is generally preferred by big companies or businesses, which, by the nature of business are smaller in number than small businesses. this limits the job offers in number, and you will have less options. and i bet in such positions work stress will be higher, as these companies tend to be in a corporate manner due to their size.

    go the perl way buddy. apparently this is gods' gift to you. go and play half life after work hours.

    with a population close to 1 billion ?

    we have had the same misperception here. industry was pumped up, economy was pumped up, it became a major economy in region and europe (turkey) but situation did not change for around 40 million of the 60 million population.

    winners are always the big capital, they dont share the wealth. they do not invest much. even if they do invest the employment they are creating is pitiful compared to a plan that encourages small enterpreneurs. funding a space programme is similar to that - just creates very high value business at the hands of who already have the money and profits them further. it does not distribute wealth.

  19. Seems like a ruse for marketing to me on Every Vista Computer Gets Its Own Domain Name · · Score: 1

    just resembles the times when the hardware industry (mobo manufacturers, graphics card manufacturers and cpu manufacturers) 'invent' or 'reinvent' some technology and switch to it, making the mobo, graphics cards and cpu you bought 1 year ago due to 'upgradability', obsolete. so they force you to change all stuff in your box and force sales.

    this very much resembles it. 'its better if you change them all' or implyingly, 'you have to change them all'. which is definitely something that came out of 'marketing' serpents.

    i always say this; marketing, human resources divisions are the ones that totally mess up companies. marketing divisions mess up companies' reputation and credibility and clients, human resource sdivisions mess up companie's employees.
