New? No, absolutely. If it were so, any cancer would be a 'new lifeform'. BTW: why do you want it to be 'new'? What's the real motivation behind? Please answer!

Simplicity is easy to build. Simplicity without drawbacks is hard to build (to verify only in the long term). There has been found a term for that phenomenon: its spelling seems to be: wisdom. (They even wrote a book about it, the most

If you ask (really) seriously, then yes. But if you only need some drive: the only part of us which really goes down every year is our body; all other things are able to increase, if you continue to train them.

If some explodes so rarely (like him), at least he has to do it special! (I liked it.)

Do you know the whole story? PDF has not been created by users, but by a company. Only now we have seen it changing into an ISO standard. (Originally, Adobe only wanted to see it universally used to sell their PDF writers: please read for

Thinking of it: so PDF maybe stands for (Hidden) Proprietary Document Format? (In the sense of: you will never ever be able to desire all of our features we are continuously adding to our Take-Over-The-World-Document-Format?) I'm confused.

I don't like voting at all, since it favors the democratic dictatorship of opinion. So, the positive thing about voting is: stupid or nonsense comments can be marked as such. But the negative thing remains: sometimes the truth (read: realit

I'm so happy this happened, because this will finally save the world! (Not) (To all non-US folks, like me: if the US were really so important as they think to be, it would suffice to save them, and all of the world would be safe and happy.

Wrapping your mind around OO (simple or bad or good or perfect as it might be) may be much harder than create some home-grown, intuitive dynamic dispatching solution. The only difficulty with the above approach is team working. In a team, y

(Not directly related, only some annotations:) New ideas easily win over any sort of ambition: But cities are too distracting for really new ideas: In order for them to happen, you need the quiet of some sort of island (in any sense). (BTW,

Starting from your question, you seem to prefer girls. Anyway, girls are better, and guys are better, too. If you start to prefer a specific gender, you always exclude the other 50% of talented people.

It's really ingenious, except for the fact that the 2 wheels are side-by-side instead of balancing each other automagically (in some other strange, and surely 'too simple', arrangement).

I didn't mean it this way (but in a much more abstract way) -- but even here it seems to be true: If you really would understand the complex things (you mention) the same as the trivial ones (you mention), then you would be able to rememb

Humans have spontaneous thoughts, allowing us to build something in our mind first, and then trying to build it concretely. (So we can think to build computers, but computers can't think to build humans...) Neither animals nor computers wil
