RE: Languages/Applications/Platforms that should go away
I note that all of your alternatives are Microsoft. You're not a double agent, are you?
IMO, notepad is in the wrong column. Every version of it has been broken in a
different way. Fehrinstance, the XP version, while it finally has
search&replace (an age-old problem), refuses to show a status bar when wordwrap is on,
doesn't actually put anything in the status bar (as far as I can
tell), and puts in extraneous newlines when copy&pasting with
wordwrap on.
I'd replace Notepad with Fireworks and add a "Notepad -> SciTE" row.
Also, I don't really see why C should go away, and I've never
understood why dotNET is such an ideal replacement. I am (naturally,
IMO) suspicious of languages not designed by open standard. Anyway,
medium-low level
languages will always be necessary for writing the utility programs and
suchlike for new platforms and architectures. At least to write the
high-level's compiler in, anyway.
My actual additions:
.doc -> .rtf
.gif -> .png
Internet Explorer -> any other browser

RE: CSI blows us away
sends MasterPlanSoftware and brazzy to their respective corners
... anyway, back on topic. Owing to some quirk of history, my IP address specifies my location down to at most a couple of buildings, given a reverse DNS lookup. I suspect the hostname given by rDNS may even be specific to the room. Something to do with the uni being an early adopter of that new-fangled interweb thingie and ending up with an entire class B or somesuch, I guess. -
RE: Book shop wtf
Same setup here, XP Pro. My laptop's screen won't go over 1024x768, though, which might explain the difference if yours is wider.

RE: Book shop wtf
lolwtf, your "AAAAAAAA..." tag is stretching your posts horizontally (but no-one else's), in Fx3β5 at least. Quite frankly, I can't be bothered scrolling sideways to read the text that gets chopped off as a result. Might want to re-think this "cutting off your nose to spite your face" business.

RE: PHP, the Enterprise, and copypasta?
@Aaron said:
Haskell? Show me one worthwhile application written in that.
Well, there's a version control system, a tiling window manager, a Haskell compiler whose output can rival gcc-compiled C for speed, a perl6 implementation, even a first-person shooter. I could go on.
Oh, and it's used by Credit Suisse, Galois, Nokia, and BarCap, among others..
@Aaron said:They've barely managed to hack together text-based I/O.
Hahahaha. That line makes it perfectly clear you're arguing against something about which you know practically nothing. I think Paul Graham would say you're suffering from a bit of a Blub paradox. -

The security guard and police were being total jackasses and wasted the time of the police and everyone else involved (including the poor guy's family). This was their fault and IMO they should have been heavily fined. If they doesn't like the 5th Amendment, they shouldn't live in the US - there are other avenues they could have taken instead of this blatant disregard for sensibility.
Fixed that for you. -

If not, they're using the same system. It's made all the more annoying by how good they tend to be in general. -

"how does a mathematican make a cup of coffee".
He could find one of his co-workers -- this'd be a co-mathematician. But, in maths parlance, co- means inverse, so he could feed theorems to this inverse mathematician 'til he produces that cup of coffee. Simple! -

There's still absolutely no reason to go out of your way to use bubble sort in an industry situation. Any serious programming language will provide a sort() function, and failing to use that is gross incompetence. -
RE: Stupid QA Tester
IIRC, AcornOS had "dialogs" appearing as sub-menus. As in, hover over a menu item, dialog appears to the right of it, move the pointer into the dialog to click on things, hope you don't click anything outside the dialog by accident or else the menu'll disappear, half-completed dialog an' all.
Maybe I'm remembering wrong. Re-reading that, I'm starting to wonder if it could really've been that bad...
