  1. Re:and then... on Google's Patents Reveal Strategy To Beat Microsoft · · Score: 1

    In 2020, the mind-meld crowd will be bashing Google and how they don't get it [mind-meld], whilst pissing on old-school /. journalism.

  2. Re:favourite toolkit? on Graphics in Science · · Score: 1

    In my current lab, we were using matlab to do a lot of the plotting, but now I've switched to matplotlib, a python library. It's so nice to have a full language at your disposal, and drop into the graphics as a simple module when needed. Before, I used Sigmaplot a lot but now I appreciate the power of a programmable interface.

    Anthony Lane from the New Yorker. He's IMHO, the best reviewer, or at least the most skillfull at snark.

  4. Three-paneled view already in Thunderbird on Microsoft Office 2003 - Reviews, Overviews, Issues · · Score: 1

  5. Re:before you compare on The Australian Broadband Disaster · · Score: 1

    It costs more to install bacause of lower population density, and the example of things better in the USA are often only based on local or regional prices, and not on national prices. ... true. However, don't forget that australia also has the highest urbanisation rate in the world. The land is large but most people are found within cities (Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth).
