  1. Ruby / IRB on Why Johnny Can't Code · · Score: 1

    I was feeling similarily until I discovered IRB (Interactive Ruby).

  2. Re:POSTNUKE!! on Managing Enterprise Content · · Score: 2, Insightful

    That's true.. but we feel that there is a substantial market that are too small to benefit from a complete workflow management system. The problem with most systems out there is that they target those with extremely complicated workflows and extreme amounts of content while neglecting those who merely lack the technical expertise to manage their own content.

    I think there ought to be a classification to distinguish between these two forms of content management.

  3. Content Express!! on Managing Enterprise Content · · Score: 1

  4. POSTNUKE!! on Managing Enterprise Content · · Score: 1

    Try Postnuke!! Coupled with Content Express it allows users to create their content using MS word and post it to the site where CSS takes over to provide formatting!

    This allows non-technical users to manage the content.

  5. When is this on in Canada? on Children Of Dune Tonight · · Score: 1

    Does anyone know when Space is going to air this in Canada?

  6. Re:super mario 3 rules... I think on NES PC · · Score: 1

    You are thinking of Super Mario World...

    That's the first one with Yoshi..

    The cart with all of the older Marios was Super Mario All-Stars.. that was a re-release of all the NES marios for the SNES.. but what Yoshi appears first in the SNES Super Mario World that was a launch title for the SNES.

  7. What about Amber? on Sci-fi Channel's Children of Dune · · Score: 1

    When this was first announced, it was said that Zelazny's Amber Chronicles were to be made into a series as well.. Does anyone have any more information on that?

  8. FINALLY!! on Congress To Consider Age Limits On Violent Games · · Score: 1

    I don't see why there would be such a law for movies but not for video games. Perhaps it would make all those idiots who seek to ban some games stop freaking out.

  9. Backup Compatibility? on New Gameboy Announced · · Score: 1

    Does anyone know if this new one will be compatible with existing gameboy cart. backup solutions?

  10. MOD PARENT UP on Xbox Private Key Distributed Computing Project · · Score: 1

    MOD THIS UP.. I don't know enough about the problem to be able to add anything to this.. but perhaps someone else could build on this.

  11. Re:Eh? on Radeon 9700 Pro: ATI Ahead · · Score: 1

    Interesting what you say about SXs being DXs that failed tests..

    I remember hearing that P60s were actually P66s that were proven unreliable at full speed and were sold as 60s (so underclocked)..

    Does anyone know if intel is still in the practice of doing this?

  12. Re:rarest game? anything besides halo on the xbox on Top Ten Most Collectible Video Games · · Score: 1

    Good call! There is nothing on that system but Halo.. and all there is to look forward to is Halo 2!

  13. SpamAssassin on your mail relay on Jupiter Forecasts 50% Increase In Spam · · Score: 1

    For offices that don't want to install or manage spam assassin on individual clients workstations, nor bog down their existing servers you can run SpamAssassin as a content filter on your incoming mail relay. Info on a mail relay appliance that uses SpamAssassin can be found here

  14. Re:Who still uses structs? Tapestry the way to go on Manning's Struts in Action · · Score: 1

    I love tapestry.. I have tried struts and turbine and hated both.

    They both were too concerned about making it easy to port existing jsp/servlet code to them and as such bring along so much crap for compatibility.

    Also, the documentation for both struts and turbine are ridiculously bad compared to tapestry... and the turbine community is one of the least responsive I have ever had the displeasure of asking a question.

    Overall, the experience of developing using Tapestry is much much better than the competition.

  15. Good for cracks on Reuters Accused Of Hacking For Typing In URL · · Score: 1

    Not that I would partake in something like this :) but often cracks only work on a specific software version...

    Pretty common to hack the URL to get a slightly older version right from the companies website.

    Hard to believe that would be illegal.. although of coarse the cracking bit would be.

  16. Re:well, sure on PCs Losing Out as a Gaming Platform? · · Score: 1

    While I am sure there will be some drop in quality, I like to think the reason that console games are so much more stable is that they can better test the target machine.

  17. Sierra!! on Video Games Assigned as Homework · · Score: 1

    I remember my grade school class rooms use to have a full stock of Sierra adventure games. They were perfect because they were educational without education being there actual focus.

    It's a shame they stopped making games like the King's Quest/Space Quest series (I mean before they dummed it down and went with the icon interface).

  18. Re:Remember the SGI Patent? #@ +1; Informative @# on Crypto with Epoxy Tokens, Glass Balls and Lasers · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I remember a story some time ago about a linux application that rendered ansi text from an image.

    There was talk of pointing a web cam out a window onto a busy street or point it at a lava lamp in order to generate a constant stream of seed data for encryption.

  19. Re:If it's instantaneous... on Experiment This Weekend To Measure Speed Of Gravity · · Score: 1

    Good point.. but then again there is always that quantam entanglement/spooky action at a distance thing with entangled particles what we could use to get around light speed restricted communication.

    I remember hearing that they pulled that off between Britain and main-land Europe some time last year..

  20. Re:If it's instantaneous... on Experiment This Weekend To Measure Speed Of Gravity · · Score: 1

    Not true.. Instantaneous communication would still be possible, the speed of the gravity shielding would only limit the rate of communication ( bit-rate? )

  21. Re:JBoss ! on Who is Using Tomcat or Jetty in Production? · · Score: 1

    I've used JBoss.. it was wicked. Good call..

    I remember reading an article that compared cost of ownership of Tomcat to various other alternatives. I believe it came out pretty low due to it's low speed compared with similiar products ( like Jetty ).

  22. Re:I'll be the first to ask: on Transgaming's WineX 2.1 - Supports WarCraft 3 · · Score: 1

    I thought that WineX relied on binary compatibility (ie. it doesn't actually emulate the x86.. just the system calls)... I think they mean that you could cross compile for another platform and have the system calls emulated for that platform.. but the code would still need to be target at powerpc, etc..

  23. Re:haha.... on Using Your Computer to Repel Pests · · Score: 1

    true.. a wav or some lossly compression format would work fine I bet..

  24. Need Frequency So I Can Create An MP3!! on Using Your Computer to Repel Pests · · Score: 1

    Does anyone know the frequency of sound this thing produces? I want to create an mp3 of it so I can make a more portable version..

    (Ya.. I know they sell watches, etc.. that create the same noise.. but I'm cheap.. )

  25. Standards? on Web Designers Ignoring Standards and Support IE Only · · Score: 1

    Maybe I am missing something.. But if IE is the STANDARD isn't the problem that nothing else conforms to it? If nothing conforms to the W3C standard, it's not much of a standard.. is it?

    I thought even netscape 6/mozzilla doesn't conform.. Years ago their were compatiblity studies published that showed the only fully compliant browser was netscape 4.7 running on a MAC. Given that less than .1% of the population is running that configuration it only makes sense that developers would target the mass of people running IE.
