What is the history behind the .NET platform's origins? I would say that j++ was meant more to be a Delphi killer as a lot of programmers were moving to Delphi to get an easy UI system like VB but “real programing” like C++ without all the pain of C++. I don’t think killing java come about until after Sun started give Microsoft legal problems, java was not an issue in those days as it was no little used. |

What's it like to program without eyesight? So you are saying the only reason for a blind person to program is to get the "logic rush", e.g. you are saying that disabled people should not be able to earn money! |

How are minimum system requirements determined? Mostly they are meaningless these days as you don't know what other software will be doing on the system. |

What's the rationale of not simply disclosing the license fees for a commercial libary or tool? Maybe it becouse they don't want me as a customer - if I have to talk to a sales person to konw the price is reasonble, I am likcly to look at other options. |

Should ICT professionals be warranted professionals? I think of BCS being for IT management not in an IT company - rather than for programmers. |

I'm a Subversion geek, why should I consider or not consider Mercurial or Git or any other DVCS? Merging is still hard if lots of refectoring is being done that conflets with each other! DVCS just automate the process of doing the common simple merges |
