Buddy and I went cross-country in it. 74 hours from the western edge of Idaho to Rhode Island. Leaky valve cover gasket--took a quart of oil every 750 miles. Drove on the top half of the gas tank, never shut it off longer than it took to gas it, as there was some doubt she'd turn over from cold iron. We had paid something like $500 cash for the beast. Odometer read ~80,000 miles, but an old registration in the glove compartment revealed a higher number. It had been rolled over, or rolled back.
We were only slightly older than the 8th-graders in question here.
Coming full cirle, then, it's a simple matter of organizational behavior that there be an out-of-band communications channel in Wikipedia for the smallish number of folks who've "done the road trip" together, so to speak.
The only real surprise here is that people seem to think that rules of organizational behavior would somehow not apply in a cyberspace context.
Oh, what a farce that was. To think that they could just push their so-called "Classic Mexico" on an unsuspecting populace without comment.
The real truth is that the formula for "Classic Mexico" was stolen after the 1988 infiltration by the Semi-Conscious Liberation Army, leading to the mad scramble to come up with "New Mexico".
Puh-leez.
So sorry if every license doesn't line up with RMS's ideology.
I taper off from agreement with RMS after a while, as well.
However, he's an important piece of the overall picture.
Kinda like Crazy Uncle Eddie in the family photo; 'twould be incomplete without him.
Seriously: the random bits of agitation are critical to prevent settling into a monoculture.
He makes us think, even if the thoughts fell like a breechload occasionally.
dont you think the timeline and scale of his 'ideas' are blatantly ridiculous?
The fact that he's done stuff like invent JSON and holds a position at one of the top internet outfits means that his remarks are less than 'blatantly ridiculous', to me anyway (as if my opinion amounts to a fart in a hurricane).
He seems to want his name spouted with HTML-5, thats about it. Seems like more of a publicity move than an actual intelligent proposal with any hope of adoption.
This guy is a "Yahoo! Architect" as well as "JSON inventor"
Yet he says, WRT script:
There is only one scripting language allowed on a page. This is to simplify the addition of new languages to the browser, eliminating the need to unify object models and memory models. It also paves the way for replacing JavaScript with a secure programming language. No security would be obtained if an insecure language can be mixed with a secure language. The language is selected by specifying the content-script-type. The default is application/ecmascript.
I daresay if this was merely a publicity stunt, and not a serious list of bullet points from a serious techie, we'd see him entrenching and protecting his poor wee JSON from all those schoolyard bullies.
This may very well be true, but the source is a different topic than the sink.
If it's about the Winboxen, then the story is more about old 'Doze versions collapsing under their sheer craptacularity, or that the network headz are gaining ground against the botnets (maybe).
...but having the mail stay parked with your Gmails, Hotmails, and Yahoo!s helps multiply the effectiveness of the anti-spam efforts.
Friend of mine was laughing the other day when a plea to help a Nigerian came through.
Nothing like a holiday note from a dear, old, !friend.

Anybody else have fun with mail servers configured to drop attachments? Forwarded something from Gmail to another organizational account (AOA) with a.zip and a.tar.gz attachment of stuff to work on.
AOA's utterly brilliant configuration dropped the.zip and allowed the.tar.gz.
I love the smell of bogus security in the morning: it smells like crapola.

This at least will get rid of E x p e r t s E x c h a n g e and p l e n t o f f i s h links for some of us
I don't know how you engineer a system that remains zero-cost and is immune to manipulation by predators.
That said, Google does employ some serious headz, so they may be able to avoid having the searches turn into the equivalent of/. mods.
According to... Jesus, thinking about something is equivalent to doing it.
If you're referencing the Sermon on the Mount, the point was that internal problems are as bad as legally actionable problems.
For example, when there is a disagreement with a colleague, harboring resentment is as bad as acting upon the resentment. The point is to motivate people to examine the causes of conflict and resolve them, not provide a JavaAbstractExcuseFactory.
Judging by the nature of your response, I'll bet you knew that, though.
They were Marxes, not Marxists. Remember, Stalin was a thug, not a Stalinist. The chess piece defends not the square upon which it rests. The difference between theory and practice is greater in practice than in theory. Bread, milk, cheese, capers Should I think about doing some work?
More to the point, you've nurtured her inquisitiveness.
Inquisitiveness is the derivative of "figuring stuff out".
Guess that's why I hate GUIs so much; looking at icons all day sometimes seems like the antithesis of grasping the fundamental ideas and letting them dynamically unfold within the mind.
The substantial difference between what Google is up to and previous dumb terminal applications is one of scope.
If the possible participants/locations for working on stuff is wherever there is reasonable internet bandwidth, then some interesting use-cases crop up:
Keeping a TODO list as a google document that you can see both at home and at work, blowing by the limitations of Exchange server configurations and mixing personal/work stuff
Collaborating on a school project. Tried this actually, and the limitation proved more to be the inability of the classmates to think outside of.ppt boxes than what could be done with Google docs. This was before Google's presentation tool, but, again, the constraints are as frequently the people as the tools.
Sure, the usual cautions about sensitive information apply. But then, aren't we placing a lot of silent trust in Mr. Softy? One wonders if some hidden assertions might not be poorly founded here...

Oh, I thought the review concerned PHP, not VB.
