Yep, some tools just suck, until you find that it really is better to have the right tool than using your hammer for everything. In the web world, wordpress is like the first php script you wrote and told all your friends (from your basement), "Hey I connected to a mysql database." Joomla is your first attempt at making it better. Drupal is when you finally get smart, it is the toolbox you always open when you want to get work done.
Now that the Drupal core is going to incorporate a lot of the Symfony2 framework in version 8 it is going to rock even more. This is another reason I like Drupal, they aren't afraid to shake things up rather than just piling shit on top of shit (wordpress/joomla).
Their fanboi's whould buy an apple product even if it was made from the dry shit of Steve Jobs. I hope they get a big fat lawsuit when they dare copy Amazon or Google small form layout.
We wouldn't have all these other fucking car brands here in 'Merica, but cars would cost $100K each, wouldn't have hoods and the fuel tank would slowly fill with sludge forcing you to buy a new one every few years.
I remember in the 90's when all the apple fanboi's were OS8-9 is the greatest and my power-pc mac is so much better than your pentinum running Linux.
I laugh everytime I see someone using any apple product, knowing that they paid too much.
In the 1990s, three University of California scientists allegedly developed and patented features that have become integral parts of what we today know as the "Interactive Web" -- including online video, image rotation, and search bar autocomplete. Eolas Technologies (a company owned by one of the scientists) and the University of California are suing several major companies -- including Internet heavies like Adobe, Amazon, GoDaddy, Google, and Yahoo, and retailers like Staples and JC Penney -- that allegedly employ these patented features.
Please show me where these "scientists" actually invented something. Online video? Ever hear of something called TV. Image rotation? Really, isn't that just an application of a matrix transformation. Search bar autocomplete? Isn't that just navigating some kind of tree like data structure and displaying the results. I just can't see the non-trivial innovation in these examples, maybe if I had no clue about math or computers, sure, but there is nothing here remotely outside the norm.
Maybe we need to rethink who we are labeling "scientists" in this day and age. Seems our standards are pretty low.
Put the parameters into an indexed array and let the script that deals with the data sort it out. Much simpler and less likely to be exploited because you aren't doing calculations based on the input data.
I don't think you understand the vulnerability. By the time the POST parameters get to you, they may already be in a hashtable. For example $_POST in php.
I don't need a reminder on what to get, I need a reminder on what I forgot to get. Let's say I'm baking bread and I put down that I need flour. However, I forgot that used up my yeast when I last baked two weeks ago and I forgot to put that down on my list. The "you forgot to get" feature would look at my past purchasing history and tell me, hey you might want to check if you have enough yeast since you last purchased yeast 6 months ago. Maybe even it could see if a phone is currently located in the house where you live, is one of your families phones and send a text message asking them to check and see if there is any yeast in the cupboard.
However, I really think a majority of software patents are STUPID and COMPLETELY FUCKING OBVIOUS.

You got that right

You cannot trust the government.
Yet, all cars pretty much look the same.

Truly depressing because with the unknown you just never know what you are going to get.
Everyone doesn't own one, nor does every body want one. I'm waiting for the second gen of the Google Nexus.
"But Trolls live under bridges." Yes, but at least those trolls you can kill with a sword.
Better not piss her off Mark.
Your money has already been spent before too. Guess it is worthless.
Because you love writing web sites in C?
are they going to charge me twice and if they do, is Microsoft going to sue them for patient infringement?

If the only choices are Apple and Microsoft.
Because Paul Vixie says so, and we all know he is always right.

Brushing their teeth with a bottle of Jack?
when "let's shrink the size of government" republicans propose more and bigger government.
Seems to have worked ok for them.
I completely agree. Fuck the applehole fanboi moderators who won't believe that Apple isn't the perfect company they pretend to be.
Oh so long ago when it sold itself for $$$ to whoever that company was. The bus has been running it over ever since.

Sounds like an opening for a black hat to compromise a Ford vehicle with some mal-ware.
