I always thought it had one or more activex controls lurking around -- because of its other-browser incompatibility. I'm glad to know that there is more than one way of making my web app utterly incompatible with anything but IE.
Thank you for proving my point. If I ban cell phones in your workplace, I have now eliminated from the number of potential security risks the people who aren't willing to smuggle phones in to work in their colons
Any person who wants to get information out of your company normally IMHO will be willing to put the phone in their rectum. Any person who takes information out otherwise is doing so accidentally OR incidentally ("Hey, how about we take this photo of the crew in front of the plutonium purifier?") My point, again, is that you are not making it difficult for those who want to smuggle info, you are making it difficult to those who don't want to smuggle info, but would do it nevertheless. Got it? Sorry for the misformating.

If I'm adamant in my intent of copying/smuggling out some information from the place I live, I will put a Nokia 7280 up my ass (less than 3cm wide), take the photos/send them out, put it back there and voila. Ban or no ban. Trusting and treating your employees well works better.

That's the question: I even resent calling pugs "a toy Perl6 interpreter". I think it's a serious project, optimized for the fun of its committers. And watchers, like me. But it works a lot and it's teaching me a lot of stuff I didn't know. Being fun is not the opposite of being serious, that is to say, being fun is not the same of being frivolous.
Nor the GFDL nor any the CC licenses are _really_ Free. They impose onerous (more onerous than the GPL's) conditions on the licensee of the text. More: there is no real, tangible distinction between "document" and "program". A LaTeX file is a text or a program? And a PostScript file? What happens if I pick some algorithm expressed in PostScript (supposedly a "document" format) and convert it (creating a derivative work) to C++? If the "document" was GPL'd, now it is safe to put that algorithm in GPL'd code; if the document was GFDL'd or CC-by'd, then you would be out of luck.
It's not wrong nor counterintuitive to GPL documents. This only means that you are making easier (as it is for software) to correct errors, make additions, and in general transform (like tranlating to your native lingua) the document.
As a matter of fact, as the GFDL is a veeery evil license, the GPL is IMHO the better way of licensing a document.
is stale software. Bit rot guarantees that all users will migrate from error-free, real stable software, to new-full-of-bells-and-whistles but error-ridden software in 0 time.
projects some of us have to work on. I *do* enjoy programming very much, but I also get stuck in boring stuff waay too often. And yes, I need to put food on the table for me, wife and 2 kids.
Let's see that: "S" is a small and not very rich scientist, which just invented the cure for AIDS. "L" is a (obvious filthy rich) lab that goes on charging $1000/people-month for AIDS continuous use drugs. "L" pays the Pedia $500k to shut "S"'s information. "L"'s discovery is shut down. Obviously this is a simplification, but there exists a lot of equivalent scenarios. You are forgetting that 5% of the population control 95% of the wealth.
in your system, a rich person with the intention of keeping some information secret can pay to maintain the information out of the encyclopedia (possibly by disseminating disinformation). Very bad.
The GPL can prevent vendor lock-in because people can study the code and resolve compatibility issues if any.
Not in the sense that anyone can pick up the code and be a competitor - although it is also permitted under the GPL, it is not what prevents vendor lock-in.
Yes, in that sense also. Now, if nessus competitors keep selling "gnessus", with their (competitors') contributions and additions, then nessus is the one who cannot incorporate such additions. And yes, the other poster who said that now "gnessus" will have a lot of community involved, is right too -- the market (even the FOSS market), as the rest of "nature", abhors a vacuum.
one DVD occupies at least 2x10x10cm = 200cm3 unless you pay a lot of people to stack them neatly. Your 20 billion DVDs would occupy a volume of 4000 m3 (a terrain of 40m x 100m with 1m deep of DVDs)
Because old stuff can be overwritten when you fill the whole disk. As I mentioned in other posting, data writes are Real Fast in log filesystems, but data reads are Real Slow.
The biggest problem of this filesystem (link is missing from the original posting) is that it's Not Really Ready (among other important stuff, mmap() is not implemented yet).

But I still disagree on the (probability of the) existence of the "Accidental/Incidental Spy"... and that was my point.

on why chromatic considers a perl6 interpreter "a frivolous project".
Beats having to put up with her tormenting day and night. :-)
Coins will be made of plastic (the rfid being the way of authenticating them) before 2020.

seek & search times are a bitch on those.

Even with a "cleaner", I bet any block is more blocks of access away in a log-structured fs to read than in more conventional types of fs.

Actually, it's faster-to-write, slower-to-read.
