I decided that TV rots brains, so now, I have two televisions in my home and neither of them are plugged in.
Bah. Quit talking the talk and start walking the walk. Get rid of the televisions. If it rots your brain and they're not even plugged in, get rid of them.
It's not the hiding of addresses that is the problem. It is that spammers (and the ones in China seem to be a very determined lot) come up with ways to automate form submission. In my site's case, they automated pulling up the form, taking all the hidden variables and submitting the form with those variables. With the old formmail.pl, it was easy--you just submitted to formmail.pl even if the address was hidden. With my little hack, you had to get the hidden variable from the form displayed and submit it within five minutes. Spammers have deemed my little bodybuilding site worthy of their attention.
The form can and will get hijacked, even if it isn't formmail.pl. I have a form on my site that includes a hidden number generated when the page is displayed. Unless that number is included when the form is submitted, it times out (it's not just a time value as it's XORd with other stuff). Even this form gets hijacked. Not as often as the old formmail.pl did but it still happens. If it can happen to a little bodybuilding site, it can happen to you.
I am always amused at the resistance there is to every single improvement that will make a really good Linux desktop possible.
Very amusing...for about two seconds. There wasn't any resistance, just a simple question: Why? I am amused at your resistance to answer that simple question.
Hey, I know! I'll start a project to replace/etc/passwd with interpreted COBOL. Don't question it. Just accept it because it's new, right?.
Yeah, things were going so bad that Clinton and a Democratic Congress spent than the previous year for each of those two years. Something the Reagan and Bush administrations failed to do even one out of twelve years. Yeah, that's pretty bad (by Bush standards).
how many times have you searched for something on google, only to find that the search engine spammers have taken over almost every top 10 result?
Err, never. Even searches for porn images are still pretty useful (as useful as porn images are, I guess). Dozens of non-porn searches a day and always useful.
Back in my Disney days, we had the luxury of waiting until we found that 1% (back then, people really wanted to work at Disney Feature Animation). Then we got a manager who decided our standards were too high. It wasn't long before people scattered to other parts of the company. Sigh.
Funny thing about laws, they're not just passed by the governor. There is also a State Assembly and a State Senate that were involved. Nice troll, though.
In a word: options. Not the worthless dot-com variety but tech job options. If a job becomes unbearable, in a big city I have more options to work elsewhere. In Fresno, I'd have to hate life or move (I'm originally from the area so I can beat up on it a bit;-). Given the number of times I've changed jobs, having options is better for me.

That means Halle Berry qualifies as a motor. Vroom!

It doesn't beg the question.
Sure it does.

If he can convert the new Metallica album into music, I'll be impressed.

Not having a job means you have the time to do things for yourself instead of your employer.
End of article. What amazing insight. Move along.

Escrow is completely different than being available during production.
As a rule, no major studio will rely on a tool without access to the source code. The risk is too great.
Did the source code to Maya suddenly become available?
Ignoring the misuse of the phrase "beg[ging] the question" for the moment...
No need to.how many times have you searched for something on google, only to find that the search engine spammers have taken over almost every top 10 result?

Metallica, to nobody's surprise, was unaffected.
Is modPerl still actively used as the preferred way to get scalable web server performance?
We're using it. It's big advantage over PHP is that I write Perl code instead of PHP. Sorry but I just don't like PHP itself.
How about programmers that know how to plug leaky code?
Another option is administrators that know about Apache's MaxRequestsPerChild directive until the leaks are plugged?
Don't blame the tool for the faults of its users.

What wouldn't I give to have a window and a door! I sometimes hang awake at nights dreaming of having a window and a door.
I am working in a noisy, small cube lit fluorescently and can see no windows or foosball. Joel's place sounds pretty bionic to a schmuck like me.
Thank you for your keen insight.

Close but here's the ethical way:
No running, the family is happy, lotsa $$.
Okay, maybe throw in a TiVo.
You obviously never had to do a double blind test with a WAV and a 192kbps LAME MP3.
Nope. Just using iTunes.

My Limp Bizkit and Britney Spears collections are compressed down to zero bits. This won't work for everyone, though.
