Copyright could be a noun, adjective, or verb. Fines could be a noun or verb. My first impression was that New Zealand was copyrighting something. I'm not sure why headlines have to have each word capitalized--I'm not even going to read the summary.
The Learning Perl book always showed more than one way to do it but usually advised that the boss might not go for some of the clever examples and that readable code was a laudable objective. I understand that with Python there is often only one way to do something. How about Ruby? Is it somewhere in the middle? And would forum regulars eventually try to rewrite your code to nothing or would they tell you how to improve what you had which almost worked?
Has anyone gotten these to install and work together with a reasonable amount of effort? I can get the Sweets desktop package to work, but all I see is "no file found here" type errors when I attempt to run Scratch from this environment. I guess I'm the first person in history to ever attempt this. I would have expected it to be commonplace, but I'm willing to follow behind someone's snowshoes on this. Thank you.
I didn't read the article, but the bloopers keyword in the subject reminds me: in the last one or two centuries we had National Geographic, Ripley's Believe it or Not, and the Guiness Book of World Records. Our analogue forebears would know viscerally that there were women with discs in their lips the size of coffee can lids; they might have believed thirty percent of the Ripley's books; and they would have photographic proof that the heaviest twins went riding on motorscooters and the tallest man could look down on a "no parking" sign.
If this is aimed at me, I was just trying to (over)simplify why an incandescent filament in a vacuum worked so well for a century or so and why it has been so much trouble to make leds work as well in standard fixtures. As to stupid and need, someone felt the need to reply, so I'm sorry to feed his desperation.
A good example was the pornolyzer. At some point, it was tweaked so that every Dirk Diggler was fondled so there was not much of the original sentence left. Before that, the profanity was more like an Easter egg than a creamy spread.
Incandescent bulbs will scorch one's fingers. What part of the led or circuitry is so sensitive to heat that cooling is such an issue for led bubs? Would placing the circuitry in a vacuum help at all?
Is this statement in any way related to CMU's Mach kernel used by Apple for OS X? That is, maybe the poster is musing that if the BSDs were not BSD-licensed, CMU could not have made Mach, and the only Apples in existence would be Mac OS 9 computers in museums?
But wouldn't a better post be along the lines of: what if CMU could somehow renege on the Mach kernel? Where would Apple be, then?
Slashdot Mirror
Could you elaborate? Was there a lighting incident in 1976 that only you remember?
Why is it not DISCOVEROR-AQ ?
This 1998 paper on skipping seems to be free to read--at least in my country. It's not fun reading, but maybe you can skip some of it.

Be cool if they mentioned in the summary where in the world the action was taking place.
...and Robin laid an egg.
Does this discrepancy only exist for Polaris? Do all other stars give the same results for both measurement methods?
Thanks. That would have been a better summary than what we have, I think.
1838 would seem to be wrong, but maybe someone should check the article and write a summary on it.

The trick now is pedagogical.
Pedagogical! Won't someone think of the children?

I figure my scheme will lose $15.9 B a year, but I think people might go for it.
...unplug the freezer.
It's okay. They diffused.

Yeah, that damned Overrated mod. Why do you hate posts? They should all be modded up!
...from where it was aimed.
One litre of water is 0.999975 kg at 4 C.
I understand that there is no connection between the litre and the kilogram.
