Something similar happens to me, but I have found I can ignore them.

Don't you mean 2038? Or maybe that was a typo. Yeah, in 2038, all systems that use 32-bit UNIX time (Linux, Mac OS X, etc.) will reset, or to be precise, think it's 1901. A lot like Y2K. Year 2038 problem

Even though I don't live anywhere near Australia, this worries me pretty badly. It could have a domino effect.

Was wondering this too. Saw it on Slashdot, as usual.

I suppose this is ready to sticky then. If you want to make those examples, Cloak, it's fine and I'm sure it would be interesting to have a more abnormal language like Lisp on the guide too.

Why would they code their own browser instead of just using HTML? o_O I suppose if the site is incredibly high-traffic, that it could cut down on bandwidth, but otherwise it seems kind of strange.

I saw that happen the other day- The door just opened again. It's just one of those mysterious things that you never want to find out. Homemade floury tortillas give me shivers. I'm not afraid of them, it's just whenever I try to eat one and feel that weird rough feeling it makes me shiver. o_O I suppose that doesn't really count as a fear then.

Interestingly enough, the other day I plugged a USB BT card into my computer and I had to do absolutely nothing to get it to work. I mean, BT is a standard by now, you should just be able to get something pretty generic and plug it in.

= ?

Ruby maybe, but isn't LISP kind of dead?

[spoiler=Chevrolet Camero] And, maybe not big or fancy, but I really like the look of the BMW 1 series. [spoiler=BMW 1 series four door]

Used Tiigon's C++ and Makoto's ARM. :) I think that this is done now, unless someone has some correction to make. If someone would read through this/get someone to read through this it would be great.

I need an example of C++ and then I think I'm pretty much finished. Anyone got one?

...And Nokia, naturally. :) Saw that a few days ago, I think on Slashdot.

I don't really like it, it seems unnecessary to me, and always annoys me when I log on to my parent's Windows machine. Good that they have a Linux client now though.

I wrote almost all the code for this guide in a separate editor. (gedit)

HTML5 also adds <header> and <footer> tags and makes the default doctype really simple too.

Personally I'd start with Python or PHP. (I started with PHP myself but I think that Python is better to start with) Very simple languages that have aspects that can be applied to more complex languages like Java and C++. @Makoto: 1. I was thinking that foreach was maybe too specific (I thought it was only used in PHP and Bash) to put there. I'll get that up. 2. I didn't know that people had that problem. I suppose PHP just does a good job of seperating them. 3. That would be incredibly cool :) 4. I tested the code myself and it worked fine, but I'll let the people that actually know Python argue about that. :P Edit: Added some ~6,000 characters. Enough for today.

Yeah, I took a break from writing it for a few days, will probably finish it within the next 2-3 days.

I think it looks quite good, but there are a few things to iron out. What version of Blender is that? Looks a lot more user friendly than the one I downloaded. That's the unstable version, 2.5. Notice: Unstable. You can get recent builds of it from http://graphicall.org/

Finished a bit more than half of the hood of a BMW 116i in Blender. [spoiler=Screenshot] I think it looks quite good, but there are a few things to iron out.

public function readBook(book) { long long i; for (i = 0; i < 0; i++) { book.contents = book.getContents(); if (book.content == like(sex))) { mail.send(complaint(book, "Poisoning our children's minds"), PTA) } freedomOfSpeech--; constitution.defendVigorously(); //When this line and above line are in the same program, compiler error results } }

Oh boohoo poor Roflzilla. :-( *insert stock "It's even colder here" phrase here* We have ~75cm of snow here. It's not cold at the moment, but it is snowy.

Program Name: Blender 3D The Gallery's User Rating: 9.5 Type: 3D Website: http://blender.org Cost: Free/Open source Newest (Stable) Version: 2.49 Best for: Animation, modeling, games, compositing, video editing, CAD. Uses these file formats: .blend (Also imports many different types of files, including 3d models and mocap, many different video formats, many different raster graphics formats) Pros: Free, open source program that is directly comparable in features to proprietary software such as Maya, Modo, Houdini and in many areas, 3DS Max. The interface of the unstable version as of this writing, 2.5, is incredible and extremely usable, although some people find Blender confusing at first you will find that its interface is incredibly flexible and makes all the sense in the world. The pace of development is insane, and so far the features added in each release have been quite groundbreaking with no sign of stopping. Cons: The stable interface (2.49 as of this writing) is inconsistent in many areas, and there are some big features missing from the stable version like smoke simulation, more advanced NURBS, global illumination/pathtracing/indirect lighting, advanced particle simulation such as SPH particles, good hair simulation, volumetrics, ngons, and a lot of other stuff that is being implemented in the unstable version. Review: Although the stable version lacks many features (See above), it is an excellent 3D program, the only open source graphics program I know of that is comparable to its proprietary counterparts. The interface certainly takes a different approach to what most people are used to, (Its interface is the antithesis of the GIMP) but it so happens that this approach is far better, if you ask me, than even what we normally use. It has many features that people are willing to pay a lot for, such as fluid and cloth simulation.
