bengunnink··on Quantum Theory Proves That Consciousness Moves to Another Universe After Death
No it doesn't. You're a liar and a fabulist, and your pseudo-scientific blog postings don't deserve recognition. Stop spamming crappy blogs on a technology site.
bengunnink··on Help I think I'm getting screwed over
You are apparently incapable of expressing yourself with anything resembling proper English and spelling; perhaps this is the core of your problem?

Our legal system is biased toward those who can persuasively argue their case. If you can't do that, then you need to hire someone who can (e.g., a lawyer) instead of asking strangers on a public website.

bengunnink··on The JVM situation
In summary:

1) Language X sucks. 2) Runtime Y sucks too.

Boo freaking hoo.

Q: Is Verizon FiOS blocking traffic from Windows? A: No.

Ask yourself which is more likely: that a major ISP is blocking traffic from the dominant operating system, or that you've configured something incorrectly?

FWIW, I don't think there's going to be too many disruptive structural changes, so there's no reason you can't start building based on 2.3. Depending on what features you do, updating might be as easy as doing a search&replace on certain class names.

bengunnink··on Ask HN: any alternative to MS word as a word processor?
Seconded.
bengunnink··on China's next-generation Internet is a world-beater
Yeah! Allowing Chinese censors to triple their productivity!
bengunnink··on Ask HN: Twitter or blog?
That depends. Can you say what you have to say in 140 characters?
bengunnink··on Patchy - A bittorrent client for Windows
Using a barely-maintained .NET torrent library, of course!

I would find Patchy a compelling choice for Windows if it was a frontend to, say, libtranmission.

bengunnink··on Password Manager
Keepass (http://keepass.info) KeepassX, a multi-platform Qt port (http://www.keepassx.org) Password Safe (http://passwordsafe.sourceforge.net)

All three of these write to a single database file. This means that sharing the database would require having file available via a network share, _or_ keeping it in version control.

bengunnink··on Why doesn’t anybody copy Apple?
If you believe Apple, people copy them all the time.
