Hah, there are tens of millions of professional developers out there. The majority of them use Windows and don't have a C++ compiler installed. Look outside the bubble ;)

Yeah right, my PC happily sends 2560x1600 picture to my monitor over DVI right now. All HDMI ports I've seen are limited to 1920x1200.

Can be, just seen the number of 125 in some study. By surgeon I meant a PhD doing operations on humans, but I guest somewhere it means a a nurse.

Change is the only way forward. If the Western civilization refuses to accept the facts of life and change itself, it will become just an interesting topic in the history books.

There is a huge difference based on ethnicity. The average IQ for Ashkenazi Jews is 125, while say the people from West European origin have around 100. That's the difference betwe…

My bad.

Well, I'd say any person with a bit of practical experience will understand that the way BBC (one of the most influential medias in the world) policies are set is not by hiring peo…

Get a clue, the Windows setup says something like "Do not install without a license"

What are you trying to say exactly?? iPlayer itself displays a ton of warnings that you need a TV license to use it.

The guys who control BBC are not employes of policy or any other BBC department. The old boy networks in UK currently see the open Internet as extremely dangerous and will do almos…

Right, I'm interested in XYZ, so that is what the top post should be ...

Do some more study before living stupid comments - all Monstanto DNA patents are code fragments from living organisms. This corporation is insanely evil, get a clue and stop defend…

Does it support IE7?

Yeah, a desperate attempt to break independent from the Hollywood/TV crooks.

Seriously? How many 70 year old people do you know? Let say you need to urgently take your child to a doctor and can choose between a 30 yo and a 70 yo. What would you do?

Exactly, nowadays the majority of people in the developed world are "working" in marketing, finance and other useless areas. It would be far better if they just stay home.

Right, on to registering letmeddosthatforyou.com :D

Does this work with https sites? I'd like to stop online banking sites from logging me out every few minutes.

Why? Are you playing naive? Information today is the ultimate power, those surveillance systems are operated by the most powerful people in the world. A guy takes actions against t…

Bill Gates never said that.

It's impossible (without an AGI :) ) to reproduce all the features and bugs in something as complex as MS Word, so import/export will never be perfect. Just have a look at the "sta…

IMHO there are two reasons this is unlikely: 1. MS has always been the king of "on paper" features. That was an important reason back in the 80s and 90s for Word, Excel, PP to win …

"seems totally ridiculous" is a ridiculous argument. Human brain being very bad at estimating exponential processes. Do you have anything more scientific? Any way there are gonna b…

Uff, 1st theory =/= hypothesis, 2nd if the brain quantum computation in microtubules is true, 10^19 computations per kw/hr is not going to be nearly enough.
