[QUOTE=joshSCH;390650]Hmm.. I believe you are forgetting one thing.. Scientists are more intelligent than you. The logic you propose is not exactly what scientists are saying.. all you have basically done is state something, and then refute it.

i cant get the video but consensus seems to be that it was good for him. it would seem that he had enjoyed it. question though. isn't the equipment of a thirteen year old a bit small to satisfy a grown woman?

@ezzeral >yield further estrangement.... i find this a bit strange. and at the risk of "yielding some estrangement" myself i have to ask what you are trying to say. if she was kicked off for no reason does she not have the right to find out what was going on? …

luckily i used to play chess so i can just sit still and concentrate. Although i must say that i, too, think better when i pace up and down. I think it is better to sit when you work on code because then you can draw or write as the …

I suppose that this is the wrong place to voice critique of php but does the lack of good php books not make php a bit of a nightmare. i have been on amazon and all the books have a review or two which says something about typos or misleading …

i am not a fan of josch but i have to repeat what he said. for almost anyone who knows how DNA and evolution (sub that into mutation and natural selection) works it is difficult to belief otherwise. they fit together so perfectly. look at the process and look at …

it seems to be that most agree that the sheer speed of c++ does not make it more suitable for games. the real problem is rather that neither java nor c# has the libraries for games that c++ has been accumulating for decades. does this mean that once one of …
