| Feb 20, 2010 at 2:19 | comment | added | OverloadUT | And what is the meaningful difference between a piece of software that outputs HTML files and a piece of software that renders a GUI? At the low level they are EXACTLY the same: machine code. At the mid level they are EXACTLY the same: programs being run on my computer. Only at the end-user level is there any noticeable difference at all, and even that is only an interface difference. Why should the interface of an application determine whether or not it's a valid question? | |
| Feb 20, 2010 at 2:17 | comment | added | OverloadUT | So the geographical location of my computer will change what website I should post my question to? Do you realize how asinine that is? | |
| Feb 20, 2010 at 2:07 | comment | added | random | Depends on if the server is local (SU) or on a farm (SF). But running a website is greyish leaning to black. Would still vote to close. | |
| Feb 20, 2010 at 2:03 | comment | added | OverloadUT | So you're telling me that if I had added one sentence at the beginning of my post saying "I am going to run this software on a server I physically own" then it would be okay? | |
