This whole thing smells bad. Probably both a civil liberties nightmare AND a huge "I smell dolllars now" chance to profit from the 9/11 attacks. Tell us why you need to do this. Be specific. Another case of slashdot editorial silliness.
Once again Katz whines about the obvious. Maybe the problem is that nobody in the media has a fsking clue. They're nothing but shills for the political machine. Look at the anthrax coverage. The FL anthrax broke at the same time as the bombing started. The media effectively ignored it, citing "not wanting to start a panic", and "no evidence it's related to 9/11" 2 days later, it gets a sidebar and another day later, Wolf Blitzer is apologizing for not covering it.
Good luck using the 4th ammendment here. It won't work, chump. You got 3 choices: 1)Leave 2)stay and put up with it 3)oranize a union and strike. I don't see "whine to slashdot anywhere on the list.
The last thing that MS wants is for the user to see a bunch of pop-up warnings each time XP and MS servers talk to each other to validate/snitch registration information.
I think it's great that there is going to be a standard Basic for Linux. Now I can run all my old Quickbasic and GWBasic programs. Oh, it said Base, not Basic. Nevermind.
"If aircraft are flying over the area, signals that the basestations are sending into the air will be scattered on contact with the craft; the sensing equipment would then receive this information, thereby detecting the presence of the aircraft"
Correct me if I'm wrong, but by the time the "aircraft are flying over the area", it's a little late. They could also put microphones at the cell sites and detect the bombs exploding.
All code must be commented.
Anyone writes code without comments spends a night in the box.
No programs will be written in Quick Basic.

Nobody codes a long jump in MASM by pushing the CS and IP on the stack and doing a far return

Friday is backup day.
On backup day, you burn a CD of your work files, put it in your desk, and turn in last fridays backup CD.

My name's Karl.
I'm the lead programmer.
It's my job to keep order in the software developement group.

Just who are you being an advocate for? Do you own a Tivo and feel screwed? Or are you just mindlessly raging at the machine? I don't see any outcry amongst Tivo owners and I certainly don't want the likes of you speaking for them.
Both of them used async logic, were designed in the 60's and were quite successful, especially the 8/I. This is just another stupid "history repeats itself" article that Slashdot excels at. All digital circuit designers are aware of async logic and it's limitations.
Where did you get this information? There is no arsenic in computers and as far as I've heard, there's no objection to the lead in the form that it's in. Do you actually know of landfills that won't take electronic equipment?

Isn't this just the perfect example of what Katz was whining about a couple of article back?
Once again, the moral compass of geeks everywhere pontificates about what's wrong with the world in general and the media in specific.

and don't forget it...
Obviously, you haven't
Why why why should we give a rat's ass about this.
Everyone was riding high 6 months ago, now it's a bunch of whines. Ya can't have it both ways.
Someone who could spell?
Thank you. I was wondering the same thing.
Is the way I like to look at this.
Or better yet, go to http://geraldholmes.freeyellow.com/index.html And hang out with your friend Gerald.

There will be alot of cheap wireless gear dumped on the market. Lots of hack potential.

Like I did when I was a boy.

Once again, I'm nearly moved to retch as a self-proclaimed "advocate" tries to speak for a group that he doesn't know or care about.
I think you're right.
Just who are you being an advocate for? Do you own a Tivo and feel screwed? Or are you just mindlessly raging at the machine? I don't see any outcry amongst Tivo owners and I certainly don't want the likes of you speaking for them.
It says clearly in the manual that they will do this. If you don't like it, don't buy it. Must be a slow fsking news day.
