Well, it was implied. Why else mention 'Eastern Europe'? Do we ever mention geographical location in other articles, as in "this startup from the Eastern US has..."? Nope, we don't. Here, "Eastern Europe" seems to have been included (in com

I think it would be a very good idea to make such scripts for other distros as well, and to test the living hell out of them. Your installation procedure is your biggest problem (just look at the size of the thread here), and you should fix

You must be quite young. To me, what defines a good relationship (in terms of having a partner) is not necessarily that what you have in common with the other is a strong desire for stability, family life & kids. I've seen people get ma

Tax competition might be a good thing, but creative accounting just to dodge taxes isn't. Not in my book, at least.

Well, it's nice if a US citizen would have that opinion... but I'm not a US citizen and I would prefer the Internet to not be under US government control. Imagine if it was the Chinese government that was in control, or (for the sake of arg

TLDR: The V8 engine can't (supposedly) encode Unicode codepoints that are over 16-bits in length, because it uses the UCS-2 encoding.

Ok, fuck - it uploaded but now it's recoding the file. Sigh. It'll be at http://www.veoh.com/watch/v40542469qRZG8NMn once that's done. I'll now proceed to upload at DepositFiles.com, using the university's not-as-fast-as-I-thought network

Would love to, but am at a university network and will go home in less than 20 minutes. If the Veoh doesn't work, I'll upload to depositfiles.com, so you could grab it from there and then torrent it? I agree that it's probably is the best s

I thought of YouTube, but the 15 minute barrier stopped me. So now I'm uploading to Veoh.com (at 45% as we speak) - it should be done shortly, I'll post the link once it's done. Hopefully they don't want to re-encode it. In that case, I'll

Not everyone who has kids in their mid-30s gets a kid with Down syndrome, and not everyone who has kids in their mid-30s does so because they were partying.

In my late twenties I spent three full years smoking weed everyday. I didn't build a career in my 20s, I just fucked around because I didn't know what I wanted to do with my life. I smoked weed and partied. I had a long-term relationship in

I'm very impressed. Can you post some more examples online, some non-technical PDFs for example? I'm curious how well it does 'generic' PDFs (for example magazine layouts).

I'm wondering if it's really a good idea to have such wildly differing requirements be fulfilled with one just proposal. Let me elaborate: you're asking a potential bidder to be fluent in information architecture, and back-end development

I see your point, but wouldn't that concern vanish the moment IE updates silently, in the background, without the user even noticing? If that would be the case, they would start out with an outdated IE, but be automatically updated to the m

Yeah ok ;-) The programming part itself is a whole different process, including a lot of communication with the customer. It is not really the end of the process in that sense - it's the last process in the big overarching process.

I am a programmer, but I am not a programmer. The problem is, 'programming' as such is the end of a process. That process begins with talking to a customer about his or her idea/business problem, and asking questions and (basically) doing c
