  1. Re:I look foward to listening to it in full! on Father of Java, James Gosling Unloads · · Score: 1

    I've never got it when it comes to SQL databases. It's like, why? Just give me a hash table and a shitload of RAM and I'm happy.

    This is a stupid statement if I ever read one. No wonder he left Oracle.

    Amen.

  3. Re:The PNG thing isn't that unexpected on Introducing the Invulnerable Evercookie · · Score: 2, Informative

    That's something different.

  5. Gift cards on Target To Sell Facebook "Credits" As Gift Cards · · Score: 1

    You don't seem to understand the concept of a gift card. They have always been fake dollars.

  6. Re:"Postville" is the current generation on Leaked Intel Roadmap Shows 600GB SSD · · Score: 1

    The summary also fails to mention that there are 320GB Postville drives available right now.

  7. Re:Tool use is widespread on Tool Use By Humans Pushed Back By 800,000 Years · · Score: 1

    Well, some birds do design their own tools (kind of) to attain a certain objective.

  10. Re:Unity3D not threatened. on Adobe Evangelist Lashes Out Over Apple's "Original Language" Policy · · Score: 1

    Are you sure? The page you mentioned says: "JavaScript and C# scripts are compiled to native ARM assembler code during the build process."

  11. Re:Tools on Perelman Urged To Accept $1m Prize · · Score: 1

    It's still a bit faster than the average speed of Formula One in Monaco.

  12. Re:Uh oh on Venezuela's Last Opposition TV Owner Arrested · · Score: 1

    Then we airlift out the foreign workers and after giving the locals an hour bomb the living sh*t out of the oil fields.

    Yeah, freeing the world to death. That strategy has worked so well for the US in the last 60 years.

  13. Re:Thats ok , as an XP user on Internet Explorer 9 Will Not Support Windows XP · · Score: 1

    Just because a corporate intranet is accessible via public IP, it's still sitting behind htaccess and/or other login protection. For all intents and purposes it is *still* an corporate intranet in form and function.

    That's called extranet.

  14. Re:Don't forget page load lag on Ars Technica Inveighs Against Ad Blocking · · Score: 1

    but because my browser was waiting on ad.doubleclick.com I was stuck looking at the top banner and that was pretty much it.

    Honi soit qui mal y pense.

  15. Re:When? on PayPal Freezes Cryptome's Account · · Score: 1

    Have a look here:

    "Google Checkout is available to U.S. and U.K. merchants. [...] We're working towards making Google Checkout more widely available."

  16. Re:When? on PayPal Freezes Cryptome's Account · · Score: 1

    AFAIK Google Checkout is limited to the US

  17. Re:What Happens When ... on Privacy With a 4096 Bit RSA Key — Offline, On Paper · · Score: 3, Informative

    The paper key seems to contain 4x4 x 22x22 = 7744 bits. So can't tear it in half but almost.

  18. I told you so on Caltech Makes Flexible, 86% Efficient Solar Arrays · · Score: 1

    I commented on the submission yesterday and explained that the summary is wrong. But it seems noone bothered to read it.

  19. Re:Keygens on The Awful Anti-Pirate System That Will Probably Work · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Most of them are false positives. I think it's mostly because keygens and malware often use similar executable packers. But there are conspiracy theories that the AV vendors get paid for flagging keygens.

  20. Re:Lemme be the first to say on Anatomy of a SQL Injection Attack · · Score: 1

    Use perl, but do it because it has a plethora of usable ORMs.

  21. Re:Payback period? on Fuel Cell Marvel "Bloom Box" Gaining Momentum · · Score: 1

    What you're missing is that alternative solutions like diesel generators don't come for free.

    Terrorism isn't an act of war. Never was, never will be.

    I like this version even better: "In theory, theory and practice are the same."

  24. Re:How about databases? on Australian Judge Rules Facts Cannot Be Copyrighted · · Score: 1

    I don't know about the US but in Germany and I think the rest of the EU, the "sweat of the brow" rule applies to databases.
