It wouldn't be a matter of needing to be a state but of wanting to be a state. Right now only about half of the population of Puerto Rico wants the island to become a state so statehood is not going to happen. But if that number were to sud

It could be argued that the moral, political, social, and economical repercussions of not having political representation are far more expensive than the cost of federal taxes. Right now about 46% of Puerto Rican voters would happily make t

"It's obvious from your post that you have invested a great deal of time in python and you are terrified that Node is going to take away your livelihood." No it's not. You're just making one hell of an assumption.

Metro apps can be HTML5 and JS, or C#, VB, and C++ with XAML. But the HTML5 apps are not just web pages. The JavaScript interacts with the new Windows API just like any other supported language can. It has access to system devices like stor

Because Microsoft makes money by selling operating systems. If mono takes off then Microsoft can't make money by using .NET to sell operating systems.

That is true but also irrelevant. It places blame and provides an explanation but it doesn't change the result.

They both have brackets and colons. How much more similar can you get! Joke aside, the first time that I coded in JavaScript I treated it as if it were a dynamically typed Java. Pain and suffering and confusion ensued.

I made the following angry rant on reddit. I think that it also fits here. The idea that .NET is going to be replaced by HTML5 and JavaScript is absolutely ridiculous. The only people who can make that claim are those who don't really know

You're taking the word ecosystem out of context. 1. I am not comparing .NET to the web. That comparison is impossible. The web is an abstract entity that .NET is part of and .NET is a software framework. 2. I am comparing .NET to HTML5 and

Mac Dashboard widgets are the equivalent to Gadgets on Windows. And Windows gadgets are already made with html and js. I don't see why anyone was surprised to see Microsoft continue with this tradition. And I don't know how anyone who has a

You've got a good voice so you can do the narration yourself. And you look decent so you're not going to scare little children away. But you've got the intensity of a hyperactive geek who overdosed on Froot Loops. Don't take this the wrong

The last version of Java was released in 2006. Since then Microsoft has released two new versions of C#, two new .NET frameworks, two new versions of Visual Studio and a plethora of new libraries. People buy so many C# books because there i

RMS is an idealist. Torvalds is more of a pragmatist. Quote from Linus: There are "extremists" in the free software world, but that's one major reason why I don't call what I do "free software" any more. I don't want to be associated with t

I had a pair of those. They're the best headphones at that price range but I didn't love their sound. The bass was too high and the higher frequencies weren't there. And the pads flaked after a while. They broke after I sat on them by accid

I vote for Freedom Software. It has a nice ring to it and it removes the ambiguity.
