Could the moderator who changed the title please explain why? Normally I would not care, but now it reads as if I am the film creator. If the titles on HN now have to match the article title, you should just change the posting guidelines.

He home schools his kids, which is inline with what he is stating are his current beliefs. As for the number of degrees, excess can breed contempt. Also, college is a great place to have lots of sex and be exposed to tons of secular ideas.

> If he somehow wins the nomination, expect him to quietly forget half of these crazy promises. If he loses, his political career is over. So he has to go pretty crazy. Here's the real backstory. You have Santorum mixed up with Romney.

Many ISPs in the US are the entertainment industry. My ISP is comcast, which not only owns their own TV networks and sports teams, they just bought NBC. Same thing with Time Warner.

you are confusing 'has a' vs 'is a'. Desktop is a catch all term that refers to laptops and desktops. In the context of this article, the opposite of a desktop isn't a laptop, it is a server.

You are ahead of yourself by a few years. Q3 came out in 1999, which means it was written in the late 90s, so think PSOne and late SNES/Genesis titles.

There was one other programmer who worked with Carmack on Quake 3, John Cash. My point is, even having one Carmack level developer on a team is a bridge to far for most. Yes, you can write huge projects using just C, but you honestly don't
