> Patrick was just a developer on the green team.
That's funny, that's not what Patrick told me! He claimed that he was responsible for taking a technology that was originally targetted for embedding into smart toasters, etc, and turning it into Java!
In case you didn't know, Java was developed by admitted pedophile Patrick Naughton for the express purpose of scanning IRC chat rooms in search of child pornography!
In fact, as part of his PLEA BARGAIN with the FBI was to use his Java pedophile-enhanced technology to help nab his former pedophile buddies.
To all those who care about our children! Check my facts and MODERATE THIS UP. The world needs to know the TRUTH about JAVA!
The reason why Microsoft OS and mail are attacked the most is simply because they are the most popular.
Everywhere--USENET newsgroups, internal company mailing lists--I see Mac and Linux zealots gloating that their OS doesn't have virus problems.
The real reason why fewer people write viruses for the Macintosh is that it wouldn't spread nearly as fast because Over the past few months, rabid Linux users have become indistingishable from Mac users in their zeal! It is for that reason that I switched my Un*x platform to FreeBSD!

I can imagine thousands of dot-com 3733T 4AK3RZ trying to network to find jobs!
Be wary of hiring people coming from FAILED DOTCOMs, especially those who ONLY have DOTCOM experience.
Why? Because the work they did largely didn't matter! Who cared if the servers could run forever, or if the backups were made correctly? The company probably failed before these "foundation" skills were ever put to the test.
At my company, resumes with only dotcom experience go straight to the trash, and people who came from a failed DOTCOM are highly suspect.
"being stabbed in the back is not a recent dot.com kind of thing."
NO dot-commer was stabbed in the back!
These kids, mostly inexperienced with no INDUSTRY TRACK RECORD volunteered to work at companies with no revenue and no business model. THEY WERE GREEDY AND GOT WHAT THEY DESERVED.
Actually, I'm all for dumping the code test! (And I'm an extra! Not some no-code tech with some ax to grind!)
If it were up to me, the process for getting a licence would be:
- You get a book of rules and regulations to read, which tell you how to operate equipment witout intefering with other services, some safety tips, etc.
- You sign a form saying you've read and understood the rules
You may be quibbling over who funds this "guerilla marketing" where hordes of people give false opinions to companies about the desire to have a mac product...but NOBODY HERE SAID IT DOESN'T HAPPEN.
You see, this list run by APPLE, even tacitly, is very similar to false movie reviews.
I doubt that putting fake users in chat rooms can make a difference.
Most people don't chat on-line. Only a niche of psychopathic loners do. It's not a very interesting market, both in terms of numbers and in terms of economic clout.
APPLE COMPUTER engages in a similar type of deception.
GUY KAWASAKI has an email list, to which I subscribe, where he'll tell people, for example, to write to complain to a small compnay for coming out with a product with no Macintosh support. Hundreds write--most if not all of them would have never even known about the product if it weren't for this call to arms.
So now some small comany gets an unrealistic view of how many customers they're "losing" because they don't support some niche platform and, perhaps, spends money needlessly to support it!
Guy does similar calls to action to tell people to write to some local newspaper because some "what computer to out under your Xmas Tree" article doesn't include Macintosh.
...if he were a member of any other organization where the members dressed up in brown uniforms and marched the whole orgranization would have been shut down!
Why does the BOY SCOUTS OF AMERICA, the world's largest HATE GROUP, get special treatment? (Not to mention special access to our public schools--unheard of for a religous organization--hundreds of square miles of public land, and a congressional charter?

This is FUN!

The people at AT&T figured this one out 32 years ago!
I hope that the company is held responsible for this. It's not completely the fault of the "hacker" who posted the passwords!
If that's so (and I do remember reading that here), why are you talking about an RSI reducing keyboard?
(I don't beleive it, but I thought I'd say it before Steve Job's Zombie Army all posted that)

I have an Extra, and had First Phone (remember that?) and a First Class Radiotelegraph.
Ham radio today is antiquated.
In fact, language inventor PATRICK NAUGHTON developed Java to help him write software to find and download kiddie porn.
Part of his DEAL WITH THE FBI is to use his JAVA SOFTWARE to catch more pedophiles.
Please check out my references and you'll see that I'm right.
I'm not a disgusting liar, but I bet you are some kind of dangerous sexual psychopath.

The BOY SCOUTS of AMERICA, in addition to being the largest HATE GROUP in the country, is now an organized militia, complete with NUCLEAR WEAPONS.
...vandalizing sidewalks. I guess they don't have anything to prove!
I never said I had my hands tied by these policies--I just ignored them! I was humored by them, that's all.
And I've *never* been laid off, in 20+ years of working full time in high tech!
