The above two answers my question.Thanks.

A question about the source code of Proprietary software

Posted by AbyBeats on Friday October 15, 2010 @11:26AM
from the self-post dept.

Why cant the source code of proprietary software be "decoded"?Isn't the computational power and technology at the moment capable of accomplishing such a task?If a software is closed sourced then is there no means to understand the code behind it?A software being closed source absolutely guarantees that no one can see the code running it?Note:I am not a programmer or a technically sound person,I...

Nice site to keep track of what you are watching and also to get some feedback.Animes are less Indexed I see,To know what all animes are airing check out:http://animecalendar.net and to get an anime Database of all animes check out:http://aniDB.net

Also Check the screenie out:http://img191.imageshack.us/img191/6247/screenshot010zl.jpg

It is not "discontinued",it is "Completed".There is a difference and lots of series are shown as "Discontinued"

Overall a really nice site and I am gonna stick with it. Also if possible dont add advertisements,instead try a Donation bar for one month after going live.If the service is cool,you never know,you maybe surprised :D

An offtopic question if you dont mind.When should we think of switching from a VPS to a fully dedicated server?I have a forum with around 3k members and vBullentin and the forum will grow further rather fast in next two months.

Don't change who your are.Take a Job and do stuff that fits you.You will be more productive and best at what you do like that.I am a completely dis-organized person.I sleep when I feel like it,I do stuff when I feel like it etc...So I chose freelancing which suits my style and I am a happy man. "Its not becoming like someone else,its accepting who you are" Good Luck
