    That's funny; I use GIMP daily and I've always thought I was very much looking forward to the single-window interface on my multiple-screen non-virtual desktop environment. I guess…

    Ideally, would you write your web application using one language, or ten? And that is how it's relevant. Any developer who can't grasp this concept has no place working for a compa…
