If the colour can be translated to information then yes. Say no pit =0, pit=1, blue pit = 2, non-blue-colour=3. We go from binary to quaternary. It then goes to whatever base when it can distinguish between different colours. I won't even get started if it can tell the variable depth to x resolution.
Oh lord. I hope you don't really mean to imply that proprietary licenses are somehow simpler to comprehend, with fewer gotchas, limitations, restrictions, and loopholes than free software licenses. If so, then I seriously doubt you have ever read a single proprietary license in its entirety in your life.
Or played for a public audience. Why don't we have the radio giving announcements before every damn song that "... recording is stealing..."? Huh? it is the same thing.
And who invented and used the first prototype helicopter? The Aborigine? Oh y'mean that boomerang thingy? HA! next you'll tell me it takes a imagination and understanding of physics to create such a device. We know they don't have any of that!
Nah, in Australia, you just pull them outa fallen trees. It is 'cos of we are on the underside of the earth and the Coriolis effect curls the bark that way.
I understand the logic why the calculation returns 1; however it would be more logical to return 1 + 2. Just if you added "1 + apple", you should get "1apple." That would both errors would cause more problems though, so perhaps an error such as when you add strings to integers?
Surely the correct way to do this is to have Clippy pop up and say: "You are trying to add a number (in Cell A1) and a text field (in Cell A2). Are you trying to:
If you see gpl code and have an epiphany "Ah that is how they do it!", then write code differently to achieve the same result it is derivative? If they change the name of the variables sure. But changing the code process to achieve the same result...
That would be like gpl-ing the 'if' statement. Then because someone didn't want to use a gpl-ed statement, they used a compare statement. The 'compare' is a derivative of 'if'?
Damn it, I am disgusted with Windows. Now I've gone and made it easy for them. Gah. Cos Microsoft stalks me and waits for words of wisdom.
*I am not a programmer, (No Shit Sherlock!) so use of statements is only an estimate of programming terms -- probably C but I don't know. I'd probably have been more precise to use pythons print statement vs a direct I/O stdout statement, but that was getting even further out of my depth. I believe my logic stands though.
I suspect the compare statement is a derivative of if any way, or is unusable without an if statement. Substitute with more appropriate commands.
Yeah, my wife and I discussing this problem decided that all drivers should have to take a defensive driving course at least every 10 years to keep their license (That is only every 2 license renewals). It is about the only way people can get it through their heads. And the police should damn well follow them too! Emergencies an exception.
That said, I'm due for mine.:) They are rather difficult to find out in rural Queensland though.
Do you have a source for this info? is it industry wide or a USA thing? I've found a number of forums via search where people allude to this phenomena but no concrete info.
Ease of use && great window management && great default clipboard && convenient && decent foundations && nice programs && eye-candy && nicer fonts && few malware plagues && reasonable cli by default...
I'm sure I can come up with a few more reasons to use a linux distro but I've probably covered my priorities two or three times over in that list.
I'm being tempted to use a BSD but I bought the wrong hardware to use with either PC-BSD or FreeBSD. Maybe once I get a second machine going, I'll setup a BSD server. That should be fun.
I do prefer the GPL to MIT, but only to keep greed in check. Of course, there is no way to enforce a donation. sigh.
Substitute Scribus for Inkscape as the option, and it works better. I love Inkscape but it is better at creating images, rather than DTP. Bar the clip art and templates, I prefer Scribus to Publisher as an occasional home use flyer creator.
These things are relative; have you seen the documents non-technical people produce without Word? *shudder* you think Word is bad, you should see what I can do with gedit.
One bottle? Damn you're cheap. That's at least 3 bottles worth, price not withstanding. They are the wrong sex remember. You're trying to screw them some how.
I'll change to the other side of the argument re 'teh internet tubes' once it can demonstrate to me that most guns aren't designed to inflict damage. They do what they are designed to do well.
Computers are designed to share information/data. They sometimes do that well. These arguments are about whether either device should be allowed to do what it is designed to do --- except in special circumstances such as the military regarding guns.

oh noooo. That was measured with lasers!

I'd doubt they had read the summaries.
Yeah! GPL is biological! ah...

Tex, LaTex etc do "basically a lot of text, a few tables, and a few graphs" a hell of a lot better than Word does.
Yes, and so is most of the world of Word.
A profession doesn't a professional make.
I have known substantial numbers of outsiders perform professions as well as or better than those trained in that profession.
Having a profession just means
I'm sure everyone knows someone who does the first without the second.
Oh. Heh, I thought everyone could hear those. We are supposed to be unusual?
I like crowds but have the same frustration you do. My wife tells me I'm going deaf, but I reckon i'm picking up more noise than normal.
Sure. Randomising the hardware works in linux favour.
Imaginary Property can only be copied, not stolen. Not only that, but the only way to use Imaginary Property is to copy it.
