Oops, yes I did. Talking about ignorance... -- although I guess it's more general incompetence in this case :-)

You mean segue, right?

Though a thinking segway would be pretty cool! Especially if I could build one using Lego Mindstorms...

    Hey -- at least time you bothered with a segway. This is just lazy
    and/or ignorant.

    And you will have changed the thread subject for all the poor
    GMail users now -- they will get confused about where to find the
    old thread. ;-)

    To still answer the question you pose: "The real problem is not
    whether machines think, but whether men do." (B.F. Skinner, via
    Civ4). Having dealt with semantic web technologies quite a bit I
    tell you it is mostly dreaming. If you want to deal with Java
    errors, grab PMD and Findbugs.

    Dear All,

    Wouldn't it be nice if my PC starts thinking like us and solve our Java 
errors?

    We all know that AI is giving machines the ability to become  better.
    The highest goal in this direction is to give computers the ability
    to think like the human brain. With IBM moving in this direction, it
    is not a distant dream anymore.

    I wanted your opinion  on this aspect and how could Java and C/C++
    help in making this happen?

    Jitesh Dundas

    Yes, Kevin. This is the walled garden thread, don't post anything that
    hasn't been cleared with the management. And never ever consider
    changing the subject line, otherwise you get into trouble with the

    Of course, the whole idea of a GUI came out of Xerox PARC, it was never
    Apple's invention.
    The GUI was actually invented as a better way to interact with the (then)
    new Smalltalk language, ironically one that is now restricted from
    apple's
    "walled garden"
    Even more ironically, Objective-C is basically a C/Smalltalk hybrid (the
    memory safety of C coupled with all the blazing speed of smalltalk -
    what's
    not to like!), so it makes sense that C would also be allowed.  As for
    C++?
       That's anybody's guess!

    Hey Rakesh,

    No offense,but I just wanted to give my opinion.Anyways,please don't
    reply to this question.

    I still think your conversation should be technical but I guess people
    are enjoying this..
    'One thing though,apple is really really good in bringing out good
    stuff..

    Please excuse me for the inconvenience.

    Hi Jitesh,

    its considered a bit rude to hijack someone else's thread.

    Please start your own to discuss the wonders Apple has bestowed upon
    us.

    Cheers

    I agree with this reply. Why are we not talking about the innovations
    that Apple is bringing out. What about the beautiful GUI that Apple
    has and which Microsoft just copied..This is what changes business&
    the way technology evolves..

    We don't discuss about such things, but just plain old business stuff
    sometimes....

    One good question here is to see how Apple takes its inventions and
    creates a Revolution..

    COULD WE EXPECT THIS FROM APPLE?

    Any ideas?

    I absolutely think that people are giving Apple a harder time than
    they would other companies because these people have projected
    ideals
    on to them.

    I disagree. You know what would happen if Microsoft tried some of the
    stuff Apple has been pulling off? You wouldn't hear the end of it!
    Jobs rules like Bill Gates never did. Mind you, Apple traditionally
    has been able to do their monopoly game simply by being small enough
    for nobody to care. That is no longer the case however; call it the
    price of success. Apple is bound to get a taste of this, especially
    as
    they seem to prefer fist-fights rather than shaking hands.


    So thats my point - Apple is what Apple does and its really no
    different than most companies (it wants to make money by cornering a
    market and locking in users). A lot of you guys (not everyone, just
    the people really, really horrified at Apple's hypocrisy) just can't
    face that and need to vent rather than just stop buying the
    products.

    Again I think you are attempting to stereotype and oversimplify,
    meaning none of the replies since your OP really sinked in as viable
    reasons. It's not about venting but about protecting consumers (even
    those who do not know they need it) from a mono-culture where you're
    told what to believe rather than think on your own. That really has
    nothing specifically to do with capitalism or betrayal, just plain
    common sense. After all, history is full of examples of what happens
    when you stop asking questions and just blindly follow.
