  1. Re:But what about... on Storing Data For the Next 1,000 Years · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Good point. Also, in 1400 years there may no longer be any humans on earth to read the tablets you store so you might want to lock a human or two in the vault with your data.

  2. Re:New Rule! on Widespread Keyboard Failures on OLPC's XO-1 · · Score: 0

    Will Widespread Keyboard Failures Doom OLPC's XO-1?

  3. What is a "sourcing"... on Sun May Begin Close Sourcing MySQL Features · · Score: 0

    ... and how, exactly, would I go about closing one?

  4. Yay! on Neal Stephenson Returns with "Anathem" · · Score: 4, Funny

    I was reading "The Baroque Cycle" for so long that when I finished it, there was a noticeable vacuum in my life. I struggled to remember a time when I *wasn't* reading "The Baroque Cycle" and searched in vain for something as dense, interesting and clever to fill my newly idle hours. I hope I speak for many others besides myself when I express hope that the new books compare favorably in both mass and density (and thus volume) to the old.

  5. Isn't Taiwan the good China? on Nuclear Nose Cones Mistakenly Shipped to Taiwan · · Score: 3, Funny

    Isn't Taiwan the good China? At least that's the impression I've pieced together from the back of sugar packets and Tom Clancy novels.

  6. Re:bears a hearing? on Why Don't We Invent That Tomorrow? · · Score: 2, Funny

    A friend of mine fondly remembers serving on the same ship with your pirate friend. Sometimes, when he closes his eyes, he still hears the ARRRRRing.
