    No its exactly the same, they are both humans who have decided that they do not wish to follow or believe in Islam. Yet Islam claims that its laws should apply to a former follower. In effect the followers are help prisoner of the religion under threat of death if they should decide to leave.

    The Muslim woman who is not currently a fornicatress can only marry a Muslim man who is not currently a fornicator.

    Since they cannot be legaly married they're commiting adulty and may be executed.

  20. Shades of GPL3? on Mozilla vs Debian Analyzed · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Looks like Debian is getting burned by its own arrogance.

    The GPL-3 allows the copywrite holder to place certain restrictions on the licensee's use of the software, for instance no military/weapons use (don't like your stuff being used; Freedom's a biach isn't it). Restrictions on what parts of the code the use may or may not change; requiring links to download the source be maintained.

    Now they being hit, once again, by restrictions the copywrite holders are placing on the distribution: if you distribute software that we own the copywrite to, you must maintain our branding. Sounds reasonable, the application is called Firefox and the logos and branding are part of the application; after all the copywrite holder does have the right to say what's part of application, (certain exceptions may apply in the case of illegal monopolies, and fraudlent activities). The usage restrictions also don't seem out of line with Debain's official logo usage.

    http://www.debian.org/logos/

    Debian Official Use Logo License

    1. This logo may only be used if:
      • the product it is used for is made using a documented procedure as published on www.debian.org (for example official CD-creation)
      • official approval is given by Debian for its use in this purpose
    2. May be used if an official part of debian (decided using the rules in I) is part of the complete product, if it is made clear that only this part is officially approved
    3. We reserve the right to revoke a license for a product
    Permission has been given to use the official logo on clothing (shirts, hats, etc) as long as they are made by a Debian developer and not sold for profit.

    Looks like the Mozilla Foundation is pretty much in line with the Debian usage here.

    So the Debian developers are free to change the code however they want, but they can't call it Firefox and they can't use the Firefox logos.

  23. Re:Certified==Underqualified on What Certifications are Valuable in Today's IT? · · Score: 1

    When I'm interviewing somebody for a position they do have to have something to prove. A cert, depending on which cert, lends a little 3rd party credibility to that. But you're still going to have to convince me. Certs also help where you end up in the pile, If I'm interviewing you for a J2EE position, the bozo with the SCBCD and/or SCWSCD will end up higher in the pile than somebody with similar qualifications. So I don't know where you want to end up in the stack or how competitive you are for jobs, but as for me I want to be the first and last person that is interviewed for a position.
