Right on. Look at doctors and lawyers. Their respective codes of ethics are not fool proof either. The person in the article made a conscious choice not to report the possible illegal activities to the local authorities. It would still be up to the moral compass/situation of the individual.
Good points, however a public "hissy" match will not accomplish either goal. It will further portray either goals as immature or outlandish, not suitable for the business environment.
I agree that and the incredible dynamic nature of the industry, makes most predictions past a year, seem moot. Take most social networks/trends today. Who could have fathomed these technologies about ten or even five years ago. There was an article in Business 2.0 a while ago, mentioning someone working on a program to write its own code based on a set of requirements. If this were to succeed in the next year (unlikely), all of the current projections would go out the door.
I've had great success using PEAR DB Objects and Smarty templates for my new web app (blatant plug): http://everythingfreight.com./ The abstraction that DB objects have provided has been a goodsend working on ISP with older versions of MySQL. The caching features of Smarty have helped out a lot, but caution should be used when learning the security implications of the actual cache files.
I used to have the same qualms of any hosted application, until our company switched to Postini. After using that service to offload all the spam traffic to a different server and filter all of our mail with their processing time, I have yet to find a real downside. It all comes down to what your needs are and if you can live with the possible negatives of such a hosted application.
Interesting. Its part of our group policy in synching all Document and Settings to the file server. All Favorites/History/Documents are all synchronized when you close out. We are using WinXp for the workstations and Win3k3 for the server. Easy to backup and easy for our sales people to sync up on the road (VPN). (Note: To avoid being modded down for saying something positive about M$, we also run our firewall/web/database on Linux..Yay! Go Penguin!).
Why doesn't someone just sue then and stop whining? Its bait and switch? You purchased the service with no known cap. You exceed the magical cap and are cut off. Someone should just get an ambulance chaser on their side and voila.
for my family and my dollars to leave this cesspool. Beach tags at the beach for $5/$10 a day? 7-8 dollar cheesburgers on the boardwalk without fries? Ocean city used to be a family friendly destination, but its turning into a playground for the rich. Now a network that monitors all of its visitors? No longer family friendly in my book. Its a shame to see this place degrade in such a short period of time. I've been going down there since I was a kid. Not anymore.
And CD Burner companies, and VCR companies, and harddrive companies and microphone companies and camera phone companies. YouTube is a tool. They are complying with existing laws and all take down notices.
I haven't posted on Slashdot in a while, but this is somewhat important. I couldn't agree more with the parent poster. I have therefore written the following email to all my immediate family and friends, declare my intent to boycott all Sony products.
My Email is as follow: " Enough is enough.
Sony BMG (Music studio) just put a "Rootkit" into some of their music CD's
Of course none of the traditional news outlets are covering this story.
A rootkit, is a program which is very difficult to detect (most anti-virus software will miss it), because it essentially hides itself from the rest of your computer's systems. It is a program which is traditionally used by evil hackers to gain control of your computer and either prevents it from working properly or spies on you.
In Sony's asinine attempt to "prevent" music piracy, they have decided that they have the right to take over your computer in the process and monitor your every action.
Fortunately, they depend on consumers to fund their evil business model. So from this point on, I will not buy, purchase, or recommend another Sony product for as long as this continues. We as consumers do NOT owe Sony anything. They do not have the right to monitor our every electronic action. "

Duke Nukem is still not out yet.

Eh. Your argument does not hold any value. A properly trained X team can run rings around a Y team in terms of working code produced.
So take the child outside. Works for me and my young one when he is throwing a fit.

Google has reported an unprecidented amount of queries for the search term "Sarah Conner" occured today.
For my SMB, the easy ability to replication my database without any other addons, was a key reason for using MySQL.

And as a addon-question, what about a small business/corporation? Are there any central management tools?

"Lies! All Lies! Firefox cannot be hacked! Lies!".
Thank you for your support.

So move. Save the other 10% of us the hassle of hearing about the "Sky is Falling" every five minutes. Check. Got it. Thanks.
Suv= Bad.
Big House=Bad.
Cable TV = Bad.
Thanks for the tips! If you don't like it, do something about it. Move to another country. The grass is always greener there.
Posting on Slashdot continously, is going to do what exactly?
Try and not use the "We" so sporadically throughtout your messages.
