  1. Digitizing DVD's on Hollywood Dealt Setback in California DeCSS Case · · Score: 1

    Recent experimentations with tv tuner cards have shown that quality captured and encoded through s-video or composite channel, is close or equal to as the one on original cd. There havent been any talks about how someone will prevent this sort of piracy.

  2. Re:open this box on A Well-Chilled 750GHz Feasible Within 5 Years · · Score: 1

    So you are assuming that each second has 31709.792 cycles. I am not sure if the same rules apply to transmission of quanta of magnetic flux so you may be a bit wrong there.

  3. Re:Get a clue timothy... on Perl for System Administration · · Score: 1

    I disagree with this. We have actually built complete ordering and tracking systems solely in perl. If the organization defines the standards which have to be followed then the readability, standardization and maintanibility as well as testing and Q.A can be performed without any major difficulties in any language. Object oriented features and mechanisms in perl follow the OO principles, it is people who dont bother reading documentation that wind up saying java or pascal are better just because that is the enviroment they are used to working with.

  4. Bridging gap between sys admin and programmer? on Perl for System Administration · · Score: 1

    I think you are missing the whole point. There are obvious reasons why programmers dont crimp cat 5 cables, and there are obvious reasons why sys admins dont work on full life cycle project development, start mixing stuff, and you ll end up in a mess. Segreggation is important.
