schestowitzHm... is this the COLA troll?Sep 16 09:29
schestowitzWIth the same common name?Sep 16 09:29
schestowitzEither way, this site has been a .NET proponent for yearsSep 16 09:30
schestowitzNow they FUD JavaSep 16 09:30
oiaohmSmith is a insanely common name.Sep 16 09:30
oiaohm"Unlike Sun's, there is no particular test that you are required to pass"  How to make a legal department shudder with fear.Sep 16 09:32
oiaohmNo particular test how do you know you have it right.Sep 16 09:32
schestowitz"We keep talking about Apple, Google [phone-wise], and the likes as being special - but their impact on the world is negligible compared to Nokia's." http://www.osnews.com/story/23790/Nokia_Replaces_Its_CEO_Hires_Microsoft_ExecSep 16 09:32

oiaohmBefore writing a piece on that something is legally better sitting down with a legal department would tell them particular things.Sep 16 09:34
oiaohmLike testcases that you can present in court that you blieved you implementation is correct is really handy.Sep 16 09:34
oiaohmParticularly if they are from the side attacking you.Sep 16 09:34
oiaohmJava is way ahead of .net from a legal point of view its not funny.  Anyone claiming that Java is behind is either a failure at doing research correctly or a troll.Sep 16 09:35
oiaohmYes I don't dispute java has some annoying limits.Sep 16 09:36
schestowitzoiaohm: but as I said, I think it's a troll I knowSep 16 10:14

FurnaceBoy'touched' ?Sep 16 16:21
FurnaceBoyMany nutritionists and food industry critics interviewed in recent days have said they don't object to the proposed new name. Instead, they're focusing their energy on the overconsumption of sweetened foods that they blame for the ballooning of American waistlines and the associated rise in diabetes and heart disease. They just want Americans to consume fewer sugars of any type.Sep 16 17:03
FurnaceBoyi kept expecting them to label Michael POllan "food activist"Sep 16 17:04
