Why would anyone use this over DotNetNuke open source? Maybe because they don't want to pay for a Windows license? Or because they might want the database and the application server to reside on separate machines?
Oh no - it's everyone's favorite oxymoron, the Macho Programmer.
You're right, "no classes" is fine when you're writing a device driver in C. "No classes" is no problem when you're doing a Lisp project for your Intro to AI class.
But not having classes sucks when you are trying to build a large-scale web app with several developers, design contracts, reusable code, and so on. In that case, no classes does in fact mean it must be crap.
It's been a year since I deleted the New York Times from my news media diet, and I haven't looked back (pardon the mixed metaphor). I was willing to forgive them for Jayson Blair nonsense, but Judith Miller's warmongering lies masquerading as journalism seriously damaged its credibility. And with the Times' caustic, perverted coverage of the Duke Lacrosse rape trial, any last shred of integrity they had in my eyes went out the window.
The Times has discarded their long tradition of conscientious news gathering in favor of making money, and it shows. At least we know how they paid for their shiny new skyscraper.
The problem is that China, as part of getting the Games, promised to allow transparency and that visitors and reporters would not be censored.
As annoying as the Bush Administration's typical "screw you, we'll do it our way" attitude is, I think I prefer it to the Chinese method of promising something and then ignoring the promise later.
Agreed, 100% - glad to hear someone else say it. If it's not Jim McKay narrating an event, it's not the Olympics as far as I'm concerned. And the John Williams tune is no replacement for the original Olympic theme song. I wonder if Olympic promoters will ever connect the decline of interest in the Olympics to the crass commercialization of them since 1984?
By "TheRestofTheWorld," I assume you're excluding China, Russia, and India, all of whom are quickly growing their militaries? And that being the case, you're not exactly "TheRestOfTheWorld."
Paying taxes isn't stupid if your government provides worthwhile services. And if it doesn't, it probably because you have the kind of culture where people think it's cool to avoid paying taxes.
That is exactly, precisely the same experience I have had, and it's working just fine for me. I bought VMWare 6, and now have Ubuntu and Windows Server 2003 (for development) available when I want it. Not to mention that while Vista itself uses a fair bit of memory, it allocates and uses memory for programs very efficiently. And the ReadyBoost feature is not just a gimmick - it actually speeds up memory access and eases up the paging hits, even with my $19 2Gb memory key.
Right, because no company ever makes vaccines for anything, ever. I can't imagine that anyone would want an HIV vaccine, so it must have no commercial value.
How big and heavy would the rover's motherboard be if you did the whole thing with wire-wrap? And has it occurred to you that for applications that require a lot of movement and some substantial G-shocks during reentry, wire-wrap might not be the best choice?

Maybe he knows the guys who send me resumes claiming 20+ years of J2EE experience.

I stand humbled by your brilliance. If there were a Nobel Prize for malicious pranks, it would be yours.
Pry them open, remove those awesomely strong magnets, and stick them all over some douchebag's Hummer.
Icebergs don't sink. I feel bad for your home-schooled kids.

It's well known that the FBI used satellite imagery to observe Ted Kaczynski, a.k.a. the Unabomber, before arresting him.
So... you're saying that a current social breakdown is underway in the United States, and it's due to "Sex And The City" syndrome?
You might have something there.
Supporting Cynthia McKinney? Which policies of hers do you admire, the "assault a cop" policy or her "constantly play the victim" policy?

Maybe the US should follow China's lead and just ignore its responsibilities under the WTO altogether.
Actually, titanium scratches pretty easily. Like a steroid abuser in bed, it's strong, but it's not hard.
Wow... for a moment, I thought I was reading Digg.

Corollary to this: the quality of protection provided by PeerGuardian is about to get a lot better.
The criminal justice system rewards Bush? How?

You're asking for sources from someone who can't spell "indicted?" Don't hold your breath.
He'll most likely leave us hanging.

Then those "many people" are pretty stupid. Growth and capitalism are orthogonal concepts.
