victimization. Are you even paying fucking attention? Rush tribute bands?!? Are you insane? Rush tribute bands sound like Rush, you dildo. The Pistols are fucking incoherent!
Sid Vicious was a drug-addled sod who gave his last vestiges of self-respect and coherence to a meaningless pursuit of oblivion. He is an aesthetic saint and barely qualified to pick his own nose.
Nirvana was a paragon of songwriting craft and I daresay Cobain would slap you calling him punk. He had better things to do than bring punk to the mainstream, like writing beautiful songs.
Punk was not a sound or a mode of costume; it was an attitude singularly unimpressed with quality or anything else for that matter. A perfect and vigorous nihilism; a generation of cutters. Kurt's depression and suicide exceeds punk in that it is full of significance and tragedy.
No one gave a shit about Sid except for the slow motion train wreck of his demise.
The Pistols were the first to make a regular job of it. They made far more from the payouts the leave their labels than they made selling records. Documented on *the Great Rock and Roll Swindle*, itself a lovely grift.
* I know, they're a glam band, but David Johannson is a total punk and there is the Maclaren connection.
Brit punk takes off at this point.
East coast wing (CBGBs) brings us Blondie and Talking Heads and the dawn of a *New Wave*. God I hated the Talking Heads for that, back when I cared.
West coast scene (whiskey a go-go) takes off after the British invasion: Dead Kennedys, Bad Religion, Black Flag, Minor Threat, Minutemen, Suicidal Tendencies, and a cast of thousands.
The MC5 were a funky, quasi-religious, freak show out of Detroit. Their live album *Kick out the Jams* is the missing link between the American garage scene in the sixties and the NY thing going on under the dusty nose of disco. That sixties garage era gives rise to a lot of the local flavors of American punk. The Northwest had some manky thing, Texas had a scene, Minneapolis, etc but mostly it goes NY - London - LA. Of course, it all leads to the cynosure of punk, the pinnacle of achievement in the punk ethos, the ne plus ultra: G G Allin. Let the flames commence.
had anything to do with what you were wearing. Like any scene it gets full of people telling you how its real one way or another but you could usually tell a brother/sister from a poser. The posers travelled in groups.
You sorry-ass tosser. Like the bizness is any more or less depraved and power mad than it ever was? They were pumping Elvis full of reds and feeding him pussy years before Maclaren got it in his head to mock the game. I feel for you, in your ignorance.
And the generations of talent, of every hue but mostly up-country blacks, robbed of their creative output, a livelihood by their lights, dying penniless, at the hands of a NY music publishing racket from the days of fscking RAGTIME forward. Snap out of it, man.
A non XML grammar/syntax, if accompandied by a decent and documented EBNF description of it's grammar, is much better to base your program on than an undocumented XML.
Except that an undocumented XML file is in an exhaustively EBNF-documented syntax already. Not to mention that the constraints upon QNames mean that the semantics of the schema will be available for disclosure via existing tools even if obfuscated. The same cannot be said for an arbitrary syntax, ANTLR notwithstanding.
(Your moral judgements, not his, are off the table; not denied, merely not involved in this activity. This is where many undergraduates get lost.)
What is the status of this lie in the discourse of the humane sciences? Who am I trying to kid?
It is counter-intuitive that greater responsibility for the implications of one's discourse should fail to invigorate ethics. The contradiction that substantially more of your discourse than previously understood is out of your direct control does not dissolve in this solution. In a very real way it is impossible for your pun to be unintended. The significance of this is not to be overestimated.
It cannot fail to be a discipline which must work against maths, however puny the dents it may make in the armour of its privilege. Derrida begins his career with the pamphlet *Critique of Husserl's Geometry*.
It has been shown elsewhere that an eschatology is fundamentally implicated with an essential failure. How does this raise its importance for us?
It is called deconstruction and not destruction for a reason. We are careful with words. It is the act of disassembling; undoing the bricolage of discourse to reveal something tangible or instructive.
One deconstructs a representation within discourse. You *can* deconstruct female circumcision, although it is easier to deconstruct an armchair anthropologist's discussion of it. (Your moral judgements, not his, are off the table; not denied, merely not involved in this activity. This is where many undergraduates get lost.) It is a discourse about the female body bristling with representative elements. It is fairly the converse of mathematics in this regard.
Hussurl and phenomenology will help us understand how it is possible to deconstruct mathematics, but of all human sciences, the space within which this is possible is most constrained here. It is there if the noema gets your ya-ya, but there is little traction to be gained. As always, the most fertile field is the discourse about the phenomenon.
Plague or no, I am afraid the disease is chronic if not fatal. And if you can still speak of good faith, you haven't been paying attention.
The beginning of the post-modern is to be discerned in the discovery of a flaw in the prior *structuralist* model. Thus, it is often better termed post-structural. This flaw is best illuminated in Derrida's seminal artical Structure, sign et le jeu dans la discourse les science humaine, widely anthologized. The gestalt is a myth. The center does not hold. Meaning is inherently contingent. The humanities are always already merely an exegesis masquerading as eschatology. The play of discourse constitutes its sole remaining value.
These insights are fairly indelible. That many folks don't have the talent for the game should come as no suprise anyone reading slashdot.
Also, you must regard Computer Science as a bit of a hothouse flower, a forced bulb. It has had benefit of ~100 years of language theory preceding and leading to its great adventure.
With you, until interpreters handle le jeu I am ready to condemn post-modern programming to the ash-heap. Post-modern Computer Science, on the other hand, would seem a fertile field. But having read the article...
At what point in its storied past was institutionalized pedagogy in the humane arts not a perfectly subjective game of names and namers? This is why the critique of the post-modern is a critique of its subjects. This is also the reason it has had such a debilitating impact upon undergraduate writing.
Last time I checked, the apparatus of state control was overwhelmingly dominated by federal authorities and possessed of several orders of magnitude greater firepower than that available to the populace; enough so as to make any assertions about this check upon federal power a hopeless anachronism and the worst sort of delusion. *Our government* has any powers it cares to arrogate to itself. The entire system is for sale and we, crammed with beef tallow and alcohol, in a blind thrall of lucre, clamber over each other in our race to sell ourselves. We mortgaged the bill of rights to our convenience some time ago.
Neither does the existence of state militias represent an effective check upon federal power, whenever they were conceived. I merely point out that they satisfy the letter of the absurd 2nd amendment. I know better than to rely on the enlightened self-interest of the gun-owning demographic or our noble National Guard when the feds break down and institute martial law. The only thing that is going to keep your ass out of the American Lubyanka will be to sing. And believe me, sing you will. You pussy, theist, power-mad bitches always do. You would sell your mother for a few more moments of *freedom* at the end of a prick.
And yes, industrial militarism and its products and apparatus are inconceivable developments for any but a race of cowards. Its persistence and pervasiveness is the very measure of the extent of human baseness. Gun *control* doesn't even approach the position I take on this question.
Life is work. Truth is pain. The way of the warrior is death.
A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

In spite of extensive recent discussion and much legislative action with respect to regulation of the purchase, possession, and transportation of firearms, as well as proposals to substantially curtail ownership of firearms, there is no definitive resolution by the courts of just what right the Second Amendment protects.
Mixed reality and immersive projection technology can use CAVE-like virtual rooms with fog walls, making them effectively "virtual virtual rooms".
The preceding sentence is effectively unintelligible without immersive technical jargon technology.
What the fsck is *mixed reality*!? Immersive projection technology is obviously cooked up because *fog screen* is just too mundane. *CAVE-like virual rooms with fog walls*!?! And the topper: *effectively virtual virtual rooms*? Both sides cancel leaving an effective semantic value of null.
. . . but I find it ironic that we are using knowledge taken from modeling one of our creations (the Internet) to understand ourselves.
Ironic? Isn't rather the most natural thing in the world? A terrific and largely unexamined consequence of the technical revolutions of the last century is the distortion and exaggeration of the commonly accepted, but false, dichotomy between synthetic and natural systems. The concept is a legacy of Aristotelian categories and its undertow makes itself felt throughout Western philosophy.

As of 4pm CDT there are eleven comments on this article. The FSF naming hoo-ha posted two hours earlier in the day has broached 100 times as many comments. That is 2 orders of magnitude more interest in the semantics of alternative OS naming than in the erosion of fair-use and the digital land-grab. Lessig is an *optimist*.
Agreed. But they already are getting scriptable and google was first off the block.
You can't really syndicate content without a receiving syndicate. In fact, the semantic web dies without a more push oriented model and quality aggregators like google are the only environments in a position to provide it.
They are already moving off advertising as a revenue base. Companies are paying them to aggregate and screen content for their intranets and portals. The economies of scale will bring this to your screen much sooner than Mozilla will bring you an XHTMLv2.0 page. You pay google to let you troll their synopsis of the web or you take the time to troll your own. And it'll be free if you're willing to accept corporate sponsorship of your results.
