  1. Wounded knee on World Reacts To The Worst Mass Shooting In U.S. History (cnn.com) · · Score: 1

    Pleas stop saying it was the worst. There were many native American massacres.

  2. LAnguage on Interviews: Ask Perl Creator Larry Wall a Question · · Score: 1

    Do you think there is a language more powerful than perl?

  3. These Tests were Unfair a long time ago on Pearson Credential Manager System Used By Cisco, IBM, F5 Has Been Breached · · Score: 1

    Some time around 1996 I was trying to get MCSD and they failed me by no more than 3 points 8 times on the last test. I had bought nearly every book on the subject. I have lost faith in these tests. There was even a question asking me if i'd suggest using Microsoft products or not to a client.

    I think they just didn't want to give me the certification. I even asked to challenge it, and I was told I could only challenge a question.

  4. These IDE's just get int the way. on Google Previews Android Studio 2.0 (sdtimes.com) · · Score: 2

    ADT and Android Studio just seem to get in the way for me. Many times, i've been troubled trying to compile apps with ADT and Android Studio. I used to have to create the project with ADT and Load it into Android studio sometime.

    android create project straight from the shell just works better for me. Ant compiles quickly, why compiling with Android Studio just takes forever. Even this new gradle thing doesn't seem to work well. What is gradle supposed to buy me? I just want it to make, not download a bunch of crap first.

  5. Twist some USB cables that have been unshielded... on Ask Slashdot: What Is Your Most Awesome Hardware Hack? · · Score: 1

    Fire fire fire...compliments of bnb... Here beavis...

  6. Brick Machine on DEFCON's Latest Challenge: Hacking Altruism · · Score: 1

    I've always enjoyed having a computer that's off and not even connected to the network, and watching people trying to hack my computer, while I'm fake typing and clicking. They seem to wonder what I'm doing and walk around to try to get a glimpse of my screen....

  7. flashboot on Ask Slashdot: Preparing an Android Tablet For Resale? · · Score: 1

    Lookup the flashboot and adb commands from the ADK. Also download the adb driver from the vendor.

  9. Modern Weak Languages on Perl Is Undead · · Score: 0, Troll

    It probably has lost popularity because all of these newbies can't handle a more powerful language, and have to go back to basic like languages. I could do lots with little code in Perl. Python looks like a BASIC with some c and perl features.

  10. Microsoft Redwest - No office space on Ask Slashdot: Where's the Most Unusual Place You've Written a Program From? · · Score: 1

    At Microsoft Redwest, vendors don't have office space. I saw many people working on the floor in halls. Others in the lunch room. You were expected to work from home. Some like me were good enough that they would make office space. Sometimes vendors would gather on the floor in their lead's office.

  11. Blue Moon Rendering Toolkit on Pixar To Give Away 3D RenderMan Software · · Score: 2

    Anyone remember http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_Moon_Rendering_Tools? There was a free version a long time ago.

  12. No Note Taking on Ask Slashdot: Best Way To Take Notes In the Modern Classroom? · · Score: 2

    At Cal, they used to give us the notes to the class so you spend your time thinking, not taking notes.

    Delete your profile Control Panel->System->Advanced system settings->Advanced -> User Profiles -> Select and delete.

  14. Question - Pragmatics on Interviews: Ask Physicist Giovanni Organtini About the Possible Higgs Boson Disc · · Score: 3, Interesting

    In regards to the discovery of the Higgs Boson, what is an example of a practical application of this discovery. I find that physics is best explained with real-world examples.

  15. SVN on Ask Slashdot: How Do You Track Bugs For Personal Software Projects? · · Score: 1, Informative

    TortoiseSVN is easy enough to setup to run without a server locally and works great.

    I for one welcome our microgravity flourishing worm overlords!

  17. Dinosaurs Break Wind on Methane Producing Dinosaurs May Have Changed Climate · · Score: 1

  18. Sledge Hammer! on How Do I Get Back a Passion For Programming? · · Score: 1

    I took a sledge hammer to a server and all my friends did too, and I avoided computers for a year, and learned automechanics. After that I re-found my passion for coding, and broadened my view of the world. I'm glad I did it.

  19. Xss on Facebook Cookies Track Users Even After Logging Out · · Score: 1

    Tracking non fb sites is easily accomplished via xss where a partner site adds a script reference to javascript in facebooks domain. This means the the site you visit must allow fb to track you.

  21. COBOL vs. Data Entry on Smithsonian Celebrates 50 Years of COBOL · · Score: 1

    There is a fine line between Cobol and Data entry. I wonder what the data / code ratio is for cobol vs. other languages.

  22. Add liquids to charge batteries on Gasoline From Thin Air · · Score: 1

    Can't you simply add liquids to re-charge the battery? Whats the ratio of electrical fluid energy vs. that of carbon energy?

  23. Tar Ball on NSF Gives Supercomputer Time For 3-D Model of Spill · · Score: 4, Funny

    They should make a big Tar Ball containing the build of the software they write that performs this analysis.

  24. Lynx Browser on Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx Benchmarked and Reviewed · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Last time i checked, gmail is the only major web site that works with Lynx. I make all my AJAX web applications Lynx compatible, and you should too. Any word on when lynx is going to support Java applets or Flash swfs? I can't wait until they release Duke Nukem Forever.

  25. Tar Balls? on Gulf Oil Spill Nearing Loop Current · · Score: 1

    Maybe you can gzip all of the tarballs or better yet, bzip2.
