This time with a direct attack on common sense and the bio-system: EU Commission approves import of genetically modified corn:

McBride repeatedly emphasizes that his company owns Unix and, for this reason, enjoys greater trust among customers. Furthermore, SCO, as the owner, ensures that there are no splinter groups of incompatible system variants.
Rarely seen such a compact block of bullshit
It's almost modern to talk about how bad you were at math (I wasn't, I was very good at math - and yes, I really enjoyed math), but when you read James Gosling asking questions about sine/cosine and the meaning of the period definition with 2*Pi, you really scratch your head. Slava Prestov at least sees in this the explanation why most programmers ask really stupid questions about the simplest mathematical problems, when even the big shots in the industry don't understand basic trigonometry ...
