It's about as funny as a joke about how Americans will invade your country, or italians will murder your cousin. Pointless jokes about silly stereotypes do not belong on forums where people try to discuss reasonably about things.

When I had no money, I'd get even $20 software off there. Now I buy $20 software, but I get $900 software off there. In the future perhaps, I'll buy $900 software.

Thank goodness we live in the now. Imagine all you want to do is study mathematics, and people are constantly pushing you here and there because of the color of your skin. Equality really is a great thing.

Getting the html/php code from my offline development tool into the server in an easy manner. I don't want to develop on the server, but I want to update only those files I changed. In an easy manner, not with post commit scripts or so.

I'd never hire a person who was a member of mensa. If you feel the need to get a certificate proving your intelligence, then you're not intelligent enough for me.

You may do Bingo Card Software brilliantly, A/B test everything down to the core, but in the end, no matter how brilliant it is, it's still just Bingo Card Software, and the market is limited. If you pick something else with a much larger u
