  1. Re:What an Unreadable and Horrible Summary by houghi · · Score: 1 · on A Custom Objectionable Word List Ate My Homework

    My Thesis is about censorship in the media and I would like to talk about the 7 words you can't say on television.

    Bjarne Stroustrup hated C++! Any day now, C will rise again and be the dominating force!

    As long as we are at it, here's the analysis of how the freebsd hackers handles the lb problem

  4. Re:Why? by JahToasted · · Score: 1 · on Extra Daylight Savings May Confuse the Gadgets

    This reminds me of George Carlin's Seven Dirty Words. You can't say Fuck, but you can say Frack. When you say Frack, everyone knows that you mean Fuck, everyone mentally replace Frack with Fuck. But still its ok to use Frack everywhere on TV, while one Fuck will get you into trouble with the FCC.

  6. Re:Engineer's Disease by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 2, Insightful · on Engineer Deconstructs Literary Criticism

    Yeah.

    Why are technical people so prone to it. There was that Paul Graham article (which made me lose all respect for him), not to mention ESR's notable ravings (eg, this "science" article, this "art" article, this lunatic fringe article), and of course the old chesnut of whether programming is art.

    Basically, all these people are talking shit. They think that because they are technical people (perhaps even "scientists") that they are therefore logical, and since those outside the hard sciences are not logical, the techies are always right. Ignoring the fact that they rarely employ actual logic (read any of the articles linked to and find me a perfect logical argument in any of them), this totally ignores the contributions of those who are not hyper-rationalist. Certain people would like to enshrine this obnoxious, arrogant, Spock-like creature as the pinnacle of humanity. For them, I have only my greatest contempt.

    and the BSDers their demon.

    That's a daemon for them.

  8. Re:Who wrote this headline?!? by stoborrobots · · Score: 1 · on Where is the Replacement for the JAP Anon-Proxy?
    (For those of you that forgot what NT stands for, it means New Technology)

    That depends on who you talk to... there are other interpretations to consider

    Anyway, JAP appears to be a recursive acronym (ala GNU or Wine) for JAP Anonymity & Privacy, if you look at the site. So your point is less notable...
