Ughn.... That's got nothing to do with introspection, that's got to do with a fucked service.
Introspection is not reealy as usefull for hitting mysterio servers as figuring out how to talk to it, but really if your going to use it to say "What order are you structuring your struct_cluebats" then surely it's better than just guestimating. Not philisophically different then ack/nack on port 80 to see if it can http?(even tho 80 may be spambo-9000 protocol server)
And yeah goons do write stupid software. What's new? Introspection is a functional.... and well understood concept, get over it.
Introspection (self describing-ness) is a pretty usefull thing in RPC type thingies. That does not mean one has to trust it.
One may trust the RPC interface of a news grabbin webservice to describe it self, and it doesnt really matter if its a little goofy, because the client will just not work. No real harm, just like a dead web page.
As for financial (etc) stuff, presumably the usual hashin' and SSL'in and generalised encrypyin' is going on.
You've got one of the leading mojo's in Linux Kernel development prettymuch being interviewed by "the people" here and answering Q's etc, and you decide to lambast him as a "whore" because people are actually interested in what he has to say. Note that Linus, RMS , ERS , A-Cox or any of them pretty much have never(as far as I remember) have shown up in here, so that's a pretty nifty thing IMHO
And for christ sake, promoting interesting responses what Karma is for you idiots. (and Karma cap stops it going nuts). Get a life.
Probably because Comic book artists also "Eat Food".
Seriously. You got to make a crust somehow, and comic books are not really ultimate bucks world.
Still if he returns full time to comic books , fine, as his comics are among the best.
Indeed. I haven't seen much of the Squee ones, but a buddy of mine , who is a "comic book artist" (read "welfare" here) turned my onto JtHM a while back it was dark , evil and reeeally funny.
zip fwd two years and where all sitting at a mates house watching nick between counterstrike matches and said comic artist almost leaps through the ceiling when he notes that this amusing wierd cartoon we just saw was the great Vasques himself.
No Troll, I just told you why it isn't stealing. Fer fucks sake. And regarding only doing Open Source because no one will buy it : Specifically -> Fuck you.
It's an interesting concept, (and a strikingly Libertarian one actually... Who needs police when you have a posse?).
Anyway, It reminds me about the old days(well early nineties anyway) of IRC when I used to op on one of the more family channels and occasionally some a/s/l retard would come in asking for cyber or whatever. (Click name F2 - kick F3 - kick ban F4 kick ban winnuke!).
It sometimes came to the ops attention that there where "kiddie pr0n" people on the networks and sometimes they would DCC this crap to kids and the like. There where also a bunch of kids who would invoke the whole ping / dcc flood etc nightmare on newbies and stuff.
After a while a whole bunch of the more technically literate among us started to fight back, invading pr0n channels, gathering evidence, and getting offenders server banned etc. On one occassion it lead to a raid by some US cops on a particularly bad offender leading to some apparently nasty child abuse being uncovered.
None the less we where told to refrain from vigilante behaviour by the server ops, and for me that spelt the death of IRC as since we felt obliged to do as we where told, it only left the assholes with the weapons to do the attacking
I do not intend an analogy with gun laws, since when human life is concerned , I feel it's best left to real cops, but with the sort of "emotional" damage that malicious skript kiddies and pr0nsters can do, sometimes fighting back really seems the thing to do.
Except that it aint stealing. It's sharing. I agree that compensation is nifty, but not necesarry. Why would I develop open source software in my spare time? Cash? Food? No. It's love!
Anyway I'm drifting here. The point I want to make is that stealing is only really stealing-bad if by taking something that person who originally had it didn't have it post act. A-priori it can't logically be called stealling unless I grab the box , delete his copy of his hard drive and split for it.
People really need to get there morals in order and stop cowering to corporate fucker mentality. Really, it doesnt help you or I at all, just some fat fucker suits who pay us coders penuts anyway.
Which is of course why you can configure your server to need a machine specific hash. Thereby eliminating the spoofable haxorable IP addy stealable notreally a protection at allable IP lock and make it a machine lock.
BiNG! Lose a point bro. It depends on the pipe one gets. At least around this neck of the woods, you can get a 2meg (or better:) pipe or whatever and possibly be paying flat for the switched carrier , but as far as I have seen the chumps upstream will still whack you on a byte charge.
Hehe. It reminds me of when I was a kid, and confronting my father on how on earth the big guy was supposed to visit EVERY child on earth
It was simple, I was explained; Santa travels so damn fast that time and space warp right around him and he just kinda surfs the curvature of spacetime into every chimney in town
Of course it's a pretty silly explaination that really has nothing to do with relativity at all, but for a six year old I believe it worked for me.
Absoulutely. The reason we should be worried is that the "Right to Read" (see RMS's article somewhere on FSF. He's often a bit of a nutter, but that article is required reading IMHO. It was Required reading in my Journalistic Ethics class btw). The ability to fairly access literature and research is fundamental to the progress of the modern world. Everyone (where physically possible) should have access to books and literature to encourage technological, spiritual and economic growth
This is at odds with "DRM" tech and god forbid if this tech ever really takes off it's education for the rich and serfdom for the poor.
The issue is not that theres a bug as such, because as as software developer I know that bugs just happen as in "That's life folks" , *but* that it's a dangerous bug and microsoft have not fixed it despite continuing to sell it.
Bad analogy dude. The problem is *current* browsers have the problem as well. You perhaps *could* blame linus for the current one having a hole.... or RATHER you could if he knew about it and didn't do anything, as in this case Microsoft is. Boys and girls, if anything goes wrong it's lawsuit world here, because as far as I can see , keeping it a secret someone is about to get his shit fucked up is being NEGLIGENT.

Unless you are goddam warrior and can program WITHOUT alt-13! Huh? HUH! (SHOUTSHOUTFUN)
And of course goddamn pop under advertisements in EVERYTHING....
Or for excitable SHOUTING win-gnuts

would be a reasonable winner-dows analogue.

He nearly wet himself!
Indeed good sir!
Perhaps "Read the friendly manual"
or "Read the full manual" or maybe even
"Really tasty fruit mix?!"
It's best to avoid swearing like a fucking trooper.
Why is that post redundant? It's a rather interesting bit of info actually and it's spot on target.

Sure you could decompile it.... That's the beauty of writing your kernels in python ;)
Actually contradictions do exist! Boing! One just appeared right then. Read some books.

And MDI. For me that's always been the clincher. It's nice to be able to be able to organise windows like that.
Oops I mean .. communists go back in time to start unions.
Point stands tho despite my "leftist" spelling mistake
