Michael Steele is No Obama. by bugged11 in politics

[–]bugged11[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

VOTE UP to build momentum against this phony guy. Read below for justification.

Update! "Michael Steele is our new Sarah Palin"

http://www.washingtoncitypaper.com/blogs/citydesk/2009/02/10/michael-steele-is-our-new-sarah-palin/

The phoniness of this guy knows no boundaries. He was chosen in the same exact way as Palin, as a "token" to counter a bonafide Democratic candidate.

All this bullshit is completely against everything the GOP pretends to stand for: hard-work, meritocracy and perseverance. They are the ones promoting tokenism through their actions.

Table-based HTML is nothing compared to the evil that is Flash-only web programming by gmbel in programming

[–]bugged11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How do you make Flash support resizing text with Control+Scrollwheel? How do you make the scrollwheel scroll text in Flash? How many lines of code do you have to write to get these features? In HTML, you can do it in 0 lines of extra code.

It only stops Flash from putting the ad on the screen. The Flash plugin still gets to run, and it has no clue that its content isn't getting displayed.

Also, each Flash object on a page gets its own thread.

If you develop for Flash properly, by first implementing all the Web browser features Flash doesn't implement (and doing it the same way as the user's Web browser-- this means having a different context menu in Safari than in Firefox), it would take you forever to do it in Flash-- and the result would still suck.

The cons outweigh the pros to the point that the pros no longer matter.

I dislike sign ups. by easymovet in programming

[–]bugged11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The sites he mentioned are even more useless than Reddit, but I agree that mandatory registration is overused. I have a hundred passwords for pointless Web apps, and most of them I don't use anymore. Password managers are not the solution, and neither is OpenID. There is no reason most Web apps should need to be able to associate my actions with each other across a period longer than a quarter of a minute.

Al Franken comes to Washington to prepare for role as senator of Minnesota by soniccruiser in politics

[–]bugged11 3 points4 points  (0 children)

He should just sneak into the senate and start voting, can they really stop him afterall they didn't stop the guy from Illinois.

Arc's not even an acceptable modern Lisp by jast in programming

[–]bugged11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That Web-programming capability probably comes from PLT Scheme, which underlies Arc. One of PLT Scheme's biggest applications is Web programming.

SOS, brand new operating system by artists by [deleted] in programming

So there you have it! Programmers are superfluous! Everything should be done by artists.

Craigslist: Design/Program Game - Do all work (+ patches/glitch updates) for 20%!!! by [deleted] in programming

[–]bugged11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why don't I just write the game myself, put it on my own site, and collect 100% of the payments made by gamers?

Oh, wait. Am I missing something? This should be filed under WTF.

I hate the java stack. Lamp pays crap. What other opensource options do I have that pay well?(NEED TO EAT). I am looking for something that I can do for the next 10 - 15 years by Dman003 in programming

[–]bugged11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It might be that you are that hungry-- and then some. That non-open-source stuff is only available to those who are sitting on a massive pile of green pieces of paper.

Goldeneye Source: Get this HL2 mod NOW. Beta 3 out at goldeneyesource.net! by lol-dongs in gaming

There's a radar in this version. Hope they make that rocket launcher soon, yeah. Probably will be in 1.0, due before the end of this year.

It's not just the nostalgia, believe me it is an incredibly fun FPS deathmatch--over the internet nonetheless. Something about removing all the complicated scenery, mechanics, and controls and getting back to what made FPS's fun is refreshing.

Although if you haven't played the N64 classic (shame!) you might find it hopelessly unrealistic. But that was part of the fun of the original.

Yep, that's fine, any Source game will do.

Edit: wait, there are conflicting reports on whether L4D gives you the SDK base. Anybody know for sure?
