  3. I know of another mirror... on Lawyers Close Up Renegade Olga · · Score: 1
    But I'm afraid that if I post it on /., it will get shut down, too.

    Oh well, at least there's Usenet.

  8. Incapacitating hiccups? on Researchers Say Drug Can Quickly Block Hiccups · · Score: 1
    Okay, so there might be such a thing, but it would be a chronic case, lasting a long enough time to warrant seeing a doctor, right?

    So, how important would it be for the doctor to have an instantaneous cure?

  10. Re:too bad capitalized are not allowed on W3C Announces XHTML As Its Recommendation · · Score: 1
    Lowercase tags are easier to read. Capital letters don't have ascenders & descenders, which act as visual cues, allowing us to recognize words by their profile.

  11. Redundant. on 3D GUI Project · · Score: 1
    Attempting to emulate a three-dimensional interface on a two-dimensional monitor to be accessed from the three-dimensional real-world (ie mouse, keyboard) is silly.

    Until we can interact with the interface in a three dimensions, this is an exercise in futility.

    ...vague pseudoscience crap...

    Did you read the article from the Medical College of Wisconsin?

    IANAD, but I seem to recall something called the Scientific Method, which is the accepted way by which scientists, collectively and over time, construct an accurate (that is, reliable, consistent and non-arbitrary) representation of our existence. The researchers are in the middle of that process now, so you should probably hold off on your judgements until they're finished. Then, maybe you'll have something 'a little bit more convincing'.

    Then again, maybe not.

  13. Why do you want a degree? on Graduate CS Program For Non-CS Undergrads? · · Score: 1
    Learn the skills.

    Most companies don't give a shit if you have that piece of paper. Read books. Write code. Take classes if that's how you learn.

    Decide what it is you want to do, and do it.

    If you're stuck on the idea of grad school, you're probably doing it for the wrong reasons anyway. Believe me, your coworkers will not be impressed by your academic background. If anything, they'll scoff at you for wasting your time/money.

    I agree that every window doesn't need to look like a browser, but some of the features of browsers are definitely useful in a GUI.

    Having 'Favorites' & 'History' dropdown menus, particularly in Save/Open dialog boxes is great.

  21. They can't use images of people. on MSN Selling Users' Images as Merchandise · · Score: 2
    Even if you hold the copyright, you cannot use pictures in advertising (e.g., an on-line product brochure or anything else that is selling) without getting a model release from any person whose image is recognizable in the photo.

    They might also have problems if an image contains a recognizable physical property, e.g., Disneyland. One of the reasons advertisers pay $1000+ for images from stock agencies is that those agencies have generally already gotten the relevant releases.
