  1. Re:A gallery of images on Celebrating Bad Game Packaging Art · · Score: 2, Funny

    I just helped it happen! We killed another innocent web site! :-)

    It happened on my eyes... loading next page was interrupted, upon reload it was already 404 Not Found. You shouldn't underestimate the dark power of Slashdot DDOS! :-)

  2. Re:useless on Why Java Won't Have Macros · · Score: 1

    boolean found = false;
    for (int i1 = 0; i1 MAX_I1 && !found; i1++) {
    for (int i2 = 0; i2 MAX_I2 && !found; i2++) {
    if (data[i1][i2] == x) {
    found = true;
    }
    }
    }

    No gotos, no breaks.

  3. Re:Library bloat on Outstanding Objects (Developed Dirt Cheap) · · Score: 1

    Heh, solution in Java is single line longer:

    import javax.swing.JFrame;
    import xmage.raster.awt.ImagePanel;
    import xmage.raster.codec.PNGInputCodec;
    public class DispPNG {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
    JFrame frame = new JFrame();
    frame.getContentPane().add(new ImagePanel(new PNGInputCodec().read("myimage.png")));
    frame.pack ();
    frame.setVisible(true);
    } }

    10 lines.
    And I agree it would probably be a single-liner in perl ;-)

    About 'bloat'... it's also not knowing how to make your modular.

  4. Mass amnesia or wishful thinking? on Gates on Digital Restrictions Technologies · · Score: 1

    I wonder if everyone has forget the outstanding track of Microsoft's achievements in writing bug-free secure software or is it just wishful thinking? Or both? Do you really believe that DRM implementations will be the first software ever which has no bugs, no design flaws, with no way to go around locks? What if someone invents a 'mod' chip for DRM hardware which turns it off but software still thinks it's turned on? Do you really believe in a perfect system? Do you?
