I not able to come up with politer wording yet I'm downvoted. Total discrimination.

Terrible analogy.. Your wife complains about you being away so you tell her to shut up becuase military families have it worse? Yeah... when my kids are hungry, I'll tell them to quit complaining because some kid in Africa is worse off

Don't make me think... I should be able to copy and paste without any browser tricks or viewing the source.

So I have to click a mailto link rather than letting me copy and paste the email address? I don't have a mail client set up on this machine. Good one....

I read the Oracle complaint in full (unlike you). Some of the staff at Oregon were modifying software config on production servers which totally circumvented Oracle release procedures... Oregon would not lock down solid requirements... Stak

Change "rich white tech workers" to "Mulsim" or "Indian". People move, things change, if you've got a problem with white techy folk driving house prices up then I'm sure you also have a problem with v

I used to work for Accenture as a technical consultant. Having read both complaints, I'm on Oracles side more than the Oregons. On so many big IT projects I would see the client constantly change requirements, be very vague, change s

Yes, that is exactly what Apple did with the iPhone. They wrote the interface then tested it over and over again and made optimisations on every iteration.. This was before it was released to the general public. The article is talking about

Interestingly, Grainger are using an off the shelf ecommerce platform called hybris. I imagine they made (or got someone to make) many modifications to its extended functionality though.

I don't see how this is in any way related to my comment?

Not everyone is you. I enjoy a wonderful and varied diet since I moved near the coast in Australia... some days I would just rather not have to eat though (various reasons). For these days, why not use Soylent?

I'm not arguing about Balmer, I'm saying that Bill's decision is probably nothing to do with Balmer or the state of the company. Why don't you re-read my original comment? Here; I've highlighted the key parts for yo

Your comment is based on absolutely nothing aside from a little Balmer bashing. It's unlikely that he's selling because he thinks MSFT will under-perform, he's selling because he doesn't want the stock anymore therefore

Java Enterprise, Spring, JMS, Messaging and a couple of large Java based ecommerce platforms although I spend more time actually leading projects than I do writing code now. Most good Java guys that I know take around £500 - 700 per day in

Maybe you need to read what I've written. I know that I'm not part of his world but I at least understand there is a world outside of what I do. He just thinks that everyone here is the same as him and what he does must be the onl

Here is some short and sharp advice for you: Quit this startup crap Get a job at a large consulting firm e.g. Accenture (you will get to work with smart and highly motivated people) Spend time working on big enterprise projects getting paid

Most people don't wake up in the morning with the urge to fight someone, a lot of people do wake up with the urge to have sex. Sex, like voilence, will always happen. We need to find a way to work with what we've got rather than t

Sex is part of human nature. It used to happen before Humans invented the notion of marriage. The church is trying to stop something that is intrinsically a part of us, that is a bad strategy and is actively making the world a WORSE place.

I hate these kind of arguments. What OS are you running? If you trust your OS vendor enough to run their binaries as root then you shouldn't be too worried when they screenshot your machine every minute and post the images online so yo
