  1. Re:Remember AT&T on It's Official: MS Office 10 Subscription Version · · Score: 1

    how many of those phones needed to be replaced after a year?

  2. 70 hours is typical on Greenspun on Managing Software Engineers · · Score: 1

    as usual phillip has a lot of interesting things to say about detail. as a designer/business owner, i have found that remianing flexible at the start of a business (not using architects to lock an entire space down for example) can help when you have found that your assumptions are entirely wrong. also, 70 hours is never entirely productive but necessary none the less in just about every "profession". a large portion of time is used simply to organize one's thinking so that the productive time is used well.

  3. Re:tcsh? I wish they used ksh or bash. on Review of the BSD part of MacOS X Beta · · Score: 1

    bash is used on osx server. i can only imagine it's available under osx.

  4. Re:I'm voting for Bush on Should You Vote? · · Score: 1

    trusting a politician... that's a good one. having worked for the republican party, i can only say you are very naive. vote on issues, and don't even consider "trust", or god forbid "morals" (a moral politician, he he he)

  5. yah, i can do that button hole thing... on New Singer Sewing Machine Uses ... Game Boy · · Score: 1

    i was looking for a sewing machine a few years ago, yah for me, and their were some pretty nifty computer controlled machines available for a reasonable price--sewing machine wise. singer also produces satellites btw.

    the moved to phrick

  7. cobalt and solaris on Sun Considers Switching Cobalt to Solaris · · Score: 1

    as a user of various cobalt products, i think that the move to solaris is great. why? the ability to transition up the server food chain as necessary. additionally, while linux is stable, cobalt's user interface generally messes things up! similar to deploying linux, stability and security rely upon an individual or in this case an interface. i generallly like their products, but the interface sometimes screws things up and you pay a premium. this is a great move business wise, it gives sun a use for their older sparc II's, while potentially gaining new markets and facilitating upward mobility. i hope they support or allow customization, which cobalt currently does not.
