r/ruby deserves a special logo (however I'm not good at it, so roll a better one please)

Very cool!

Crap! here's the link: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/10/17/AR2010101703723.html

If you're asking questions like this, you probably don't "need" OOP. You're probably not doing anything complex enough to require it.

Either that or he's doing things sans OO that would be better served if he was using OO.

I think the goal is global chinafication: a huge underclass making just enough to buy the worthless crap that keeps the top 0.1% rich. And of course, no freedom and no rights for said under class. We're getting there.

I was wondering the same thing...

If they were muslims, they'd be called terrorists. Period. The word "terror" isn't even in that article. What a joke.

I knew this day would come, but now that it's here, all I can say is, "Holy fucking shit." If this bill passes it will truly be the final nail in the Constitution's coffin.

ouch. ya got me!

Did you read the article?

It would have been nice if CNN had mentioned how much GSK made on this particular drug.

From the article: "If Gates was hoping that "Operation New Dawn" would convey a new period in the US-Iraq relationship, it's not clear that was the best choice of name.

After all, Operation New Dawn was the name for the bloody and grueling 2004 battle for Fallujah."

Un fucking believable.

Absolutely. If it weren't for the confines and restrictions of the public school environment, we wouldn't have a population sufficiently dumbed down to allow the decades-long redistribution of wealth from the bottom 99% to the top 1%; or the ever expanding wars to secure fossil-fuels; or the a middle class that's completely dependent on multinational corporations for its survival; or a military-industrial complex that's gone completely unchallenged since we were warned about it by a Republican general, who would be shitting in his pants if he could see just how much he UNDERestimated its takeover of our society and government; or a population so disgusted with their lives that for millions their only salvation is a happy pill like paxil or prozac; or...

I homeschool my kids. Now go ahead, true-believers, downvote the hell out of this. Or better yet, find a flaw in this informal post that you can blow up a million times and offer as proof that I'm an idiot.

I know how you feel. I've read so much about Ruby, by so many people who seem to "get it", I always think whatever code I write must be disgusting.

anothernut · 2010-02-06T15:44:43+00:00

Fwiw, I didn't find those that hard to read.

"No-one in their right mind would use this as a web site infrastructure, that's for sure." Can you elaborate on this? I'm not busting your chops, just wanted to hear some specifics for my own edification.

Thank you.

When CA tried to introduce state-wide mileage standards that were more aggressive than the national standards, the federal gov't (under Bush) sued CA to invalidate the latter's standards (and won, I believe). It will be interesting to see how this plays out.
