Which is true. I really hope this happens, it's time for China to start playing by the rules of a real market economy or lose access to the global market. We should not tolerate China subsidizing their industry, at the expense of other industrial countries.
Americans and their political correctness, 'nuff said.
You surprise me, from the comments you made a few days back on the European refugee crisis, I though you were a peaceful person. Now your true nature is revealed. Would you be willing to sacrifice your own life, to save the elephants? Would you be willing to kill another human being yourself, to save the elephants? If your not willing, I don't even know how you come up with this ideas!
Thank God we will always have BSD/Linux.
This is pretty much how life works too!
Not everyone is a professional developer in an advanced economy, I am neither. Some books I've bought, have costed me as high as 25% of my monthly income. Also I am not talking about Tanenbaum hardbacks, I have never bought a book that expensive.
This is my favorite C related documentation online. The first book on C I read was a PDF of K&R, I liked it. I used to think the paperback was way too expensive. Instead I bought C Primer Plus, never read it. Few books capture the gist of a language as well as K&R in as little space. Though Modern Perl and Programming in Lua also come to mind. If they ever make an updated version of K&R I would definitely buy it.
Maybe when binary packages are available for non Ubuntu Linuxes?
I know I'd never get there but this sounds awesome.
I also invite anyone reading this comment, to read the following story, which always comes to my mind in this sort of events: http://www.folklore.org/StoryView.py?story=MacBasic.txt
