superbadass site on R/P games, and the religious right's attack on them. it goes into lots of detail but essentially all the "many documented cases" are completely anecdotal, everyone "heard about it on the news" or somesuch. 'sides for a good while everytime a kid went to jail and had ever touched a ouija board or had friends who played dnd it was the games fault.
Isn't this one of the Software packages which has tons of little shortcuts and simpler ways to make code sort of lego block stuff? I am not sure but it seems like it to me when I took a look at it. Perhaps they are protecting their SW-generated code.
Do what the US does to protect the Constitution not too expensive really, just fill a vault with lots of pure nitrogen or helium.... an inch of lead and a couple more inches of steel, hermetically sealed ought to go a long way towards improving those projected life spans.
Well, why not just set up a webserver for the printers you want set up this way? Sounds to me like the whole "standard" is simply going to be that anyway.. But a useful standard would be good. As long as if it's mine I control its remote capabilities.
I like that, how about another thing sorta piggy-backed on that? Why not also allow users to select individuals who they find ususally have comments they want to read, and allow a quick sort by nicknames? That way there would be another level for people to not get lost, besides somebody might be writing a paper on flamebaiters or some such.
Well, I agree we should look into this as a society, however there are pieces of information that not everyone needs to know!!! What if instructions for the ATOM Bomb were public domain... I mean I know this is slightly extreme... but, nonetheless, true... If I come up with a killer Idea, or a program that people will pay tons o money for.... then Whats wrong with me making some cash from that... I feel its morally more right to get paid for ideas than to get paid for stuff. Think about it, manufactured stuff is usually there because someone in a position of power broke subservient people's backs to get their stuff out.
I say that this was a great essay, but it viewed everything from only one angle.
This really, really has to be a mistake or a hoax. Come on, I've read reviews of this book, I suppose if the price is genuine it is a serious "Emperor's New Clothes" gig. Pretty soon, industry analysts and the media are gonna start publicly drooling over it to prove how much they "get it"

BLAH BLAH BLAH.
Isn't this C++ "Builder?"
