| I go to Berkeley and I hardly see people showing off their "knowledge" in my 4.5 years there. Every one in class is afraid to ask questions, to speak up in discussion, and aren't attending the class to prove the professor or the TA wrong. If such people with intellect know everything, then why are they in school?
Perhaps my opinion is biased but I know I don't go around gloating the fact that I take so many units per semester, or that I have two degrees, or that I'm a TA and such, etc. I don't see people who do that either. Perhaps these people inflate their performance, which is understandable if you are in a major with a lot of competition, such as biology. But in other majors where curves don't matter, then well I haven't seen much. In terms of universities being best of the best, those are all influenced by rankings put out by U.S. World as well as what industry says when the come to various universities to recruit people. Perhaps much of the hype comes from people who don't know the real truth and only see things at a superficial level. I don't see what you mean by "Is it possible that such places just leech off the few who do carry intellect?" Institutions only leech of the few who carry intellect from those willing to do research, who are willing to teach. But majority of people go to industry upon graduation and do not do that much to enrich the school in the sense of leaving a legacy as what I think your question implies. |

| Owners of an infamous file sharing group want to acquire control of Sealand such that they can establish a nation without copyright. So, will a nation ever come forth and not have copyright? | |||

| Just choose a school where you will like where you will be at--since it is your home for the next two years. UCSD is a great school and I've many friends who go there. If you don't like Berkeley or Stanford, don't go--you will get the same concepts in Economics if you went to any other school--you might not get the "prestige" that comes with the school. Some students select Berkeley or Stanford based on name sake, in that they will use the school's name to get a good job. But keep in mind, your school may get you your first job, but it is what you do at your first job that determines whereelse you will go in life. | |||

So, after taking a psychology survey for my psych class I'm taking this semester, this image greeted me 
*shudders* What other disturbing pictures have you seen? |

| Where are you taking micro-econ? An environment like that is usually found like a community college...or during finals |

| I don't think Java as a delete operator. The closest thing you can get to running the garbage collector on demand is to call it via System.gc() | |||

| I've used WebCT, Blackboard, and now this thing called bspace. It has a nice interface for humanities related classes but it is virtually useless for, at least, computer science classes. One CS class tried to use it and that project failed so badly that the class abandoned it 4 weeks into the semester in favor of a homebrewn system. | |||

| I don't believe it is installed initially though. I remember installing 10.3 and I had to use the utility CD to install a package with all the compiling tools. | |||

It appears PHP5 has a lot of new file system naviation and manipulation functions. However, because I'm running code on a PHP4 server that I have no control over. Are there PHP4 equivalent functions? I'm having trouble searching google because I'm getting PHP pages that show how to use UNIX  |

| One of the major reasons why I haven't defected from Windows to some Linux distro is dealing with hardware issues. I had to help my friend before getting support and well, it is a pain. Even setting up network support on PS2/Linux was a pain because the drivers that came with that version of Linux did not support my network adapter. When you can't get network support on Linux, you basically have a dead operating system.
I still use Windows because it hasn't pissed me off enough like everyone else. I don't get the errors people get, I don't get the crashes that I hear so much about. Windows installation is nice because I know where things are installed. When I install something for UNIX, well, I'm not sure where it goes  Supposedly if I use --prefix to fix and explicitly state where I install my things, I will know where it goes. However, if something else assumes where program X is installed and I don't remember where I installed program X, I'm in trouble. Installing programs for UNIX is superior to Installing programs for Windows in terms of automation. However, when the installation process breaks down because of obscure errors, well I get frustrated because I don't even know where to begin because usually the error message from the compiler is obscure or worst yet, it segfauls for no reason at all (scrollkeeper-0.3.1 )
I guess what it comes down is to patience. HH has more patience with Windows than with Linux, and hence his apprehension to Linux as a whole, in my opinion. |

| Package managers work when it has the software you want and Cygwin's package manager doesn't have everything. Cygwin is a bad example I know but it does demonstrate the shortcoming of a package manager. Other issues is keeping software up to date--SPIM's current version is 7.3, while the copy in Ubuntu's package manger is 7.2.1 |

| HH, Azureus uses non-Sun GUI elements--this is why you have to update a bazillion things when you update Azureus
I feel Java is better suited for the business environment than the home environment. In industry, the object oriented nature of Java helps mitigate problems that arise in a multi-programmer environment of a company. This helps reduce the number of bugs that could potentially crop up, which is tremendous savings for companies as paying software developers is not cheap. A lot of what you have programmed MathOnNapkins seems you've done so yourself. As a result, you feel very restricted in what you can do and well, I do agree with you. C/C++ is a much more powerful language because you can do so much; but at the same time it does has it drawbacks which I believe are equally as bad as Java's. Closing up memory leaks in C/C++ is a pain and I have the backing of 200+ students who just experienced that this past weekend. Also, don't forget that Sun designed Java to make it more productive for the business environment, not the individual user. Many application-level programming is developed using OOD--find me a large company that develops application-level programs without OOD. Enforcing types allows better security (what was the last Java virus that made headlines?). Computers nowadays are so fast that the "performance hit" caused by using Java is made up for the security and productivity it brings. I do agree with MathOnNapkins that Java applets are horrible invention. |

| I need to clone my Windows Boot Partition from HD1 onto HD2 so that I can swap out HD1 and replace it with HD2 as if the boot partition was always on HD2 to begin with. What is the best program that I can use out there to do it? Or is there a process I can undertake? Through recommendations, I want to avoid Norton. I'm having difficulty finding an open source solution as the only software I know related to partitioning is gparted--but that is not what I want (I don't think). Credit will be given on the PS2/Linux server HD1 is going to move into. | |||
