jQuery is not a control toolkit. The two could be used together.

The problem with this is that they continue to reject a custom software solution, spending MILLIONS of dollars trying to find a generic "off-the-shelf" system to perform a specific task.
Instead of hiring a number of teams of competent programmers, and going through the SDLC process to design/deliver exactly what is needed, they'd rather spending millions of dollars searching, followed by hundreds of thousands of dollars purchasing "seats", and "support".
Of course, they're over-the-top security bullsh|t does as much as possible to hinder the software development process. But that's none of my business...

It's better to concentrate on precise movements executed in perfect harmony, than powerful single tugs. With this in mind, the scientists from the Biomimetics and Dexterous Manipulation Laboratory (BDML) were able to use just six of their 17-gram microTug robots to pull an 1,800 kg car. MicroTug, MicroTug, does whatever a spider can

While many tech moguls dream of changing the way we live with new smart devices or social media apps, one Russian internet millionaire is trying to change nothing less than our destiny, by making it possible to upload a human brain to a computer, reports Tristan Quinn.

freeing them from the biological constraints of the body.
I quite enjoy some of those "constraints", and if death is a part of that experience, then so be it. I cannot imagine a worse death than for my personality to be locked up in some machine, never to truly live.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Fekkit, I'm going to implement MUMPS.Net then (Mumps[^]).

OK, I'll add an even more competitive system: PHP_MUMPS. That will be the source of most WTFs ever.

I'll take that and raise you a pinch of JavaScript (especially the fact that variables are global by default, and that a misspelling will introduce a new global - even MUMPS got that right).
