I never saw one of those, but I think statistical filters are quite good at stopping spam right now. they are the best toos so far and the only that lasted more than 1 week after spammers detected its existence. It's a great idea with a good and not so good implementations. It's also not a deifnitive solution, but makes life in hell a bit easier.
Baaaaad name. Decimals are not floats. Floats are binary, decimals are decimals. How do you call decimal numbers (full presition) in that lang.? Currency? Digits? Anyone?
And the damn thing is, you end up with piles of crap in your memory on boot-up that you never will use, but they include "Just In Case" so if you do fire up apps they appear to just start right up, unlike those clunky competitors products.
I feel that exactly when I load a KDE app in my Gnome desktop. The stupidest game takes 5 or more second to load while it's loading DT and all the KDE stuff. I think it's the way to go, load on demand.
Free Software that is available for free in China empowers individual citizens to do whatever they want. They can opress the masses (if they are part of the opressing regime) or fight for more freedom. It's up to them. Giving linux or openoffice to chinese govt. does not exclude individuals who might want to use it.
As a coder I can assure you that working on somebody else's code is frustrating because you allways say: "I would have done this differently". Most rewrites I think come from there, having the idea of a better implementation.
So every company aiming to sell linux desktop solutions will use gnome to avoid paying the qt developers for the license? You can't sell a program binded to qt without paying? What propietary software in novell and others trying to insert in their linux desktops?
I got Knoppix to boot the PC I run at work, but my home PC does not boot Knoppix. I get to the point it starts the XServer, then the screen gets all black and the CD unit stops making noise and the light blinks in a repetitive pattern. The keyboard does not work and I have to hard reset the PC. I tried sending the noscsi and the noagp arguments. Even the expert mode, with no changes. Before hanging, the PCI video board seemed to be detected correctly as well as the monitor.
I used to have HTMLTidy inside (Allaire or Macromedia's) Homesite as the default CodeSweep to turn everything to XHTML 1.0 since 1999 or 2000. Just pressing CTRL-ALT-F.
The same bug will be present in 1.1 final. It will not be fixed until 2.0 (hopefully) and I'm sure it's present in 1.0.3.1 which is not beta. So don't tell me to fuck off.
I was not disagreeing, just bringing up a point I thought was relevant. Of course you must be vigilant. In the low bandwidth era (arpanet?) UNIXes and BSD's and VAX's used to have well known bugs companies didn't patch until they had a critical mass for the update to be released, and even then sysadmins didn't update the systems for number of reasons. So human behavior is critical.
Remember that millons on eyeballs catch more bugs than a few. Some parts of the linux code (not just the kernel) have been around for years and have been reviewed by huge amounts of different kinds people. OTOH the windows code is only seen by the MS guys and they seem to rewrite big parts of it from time to time. Also they mix kernel stuff with windowsing stuff. I guess all that IIS and IE code inside win nt kernel hides some serious bugs.

I run windows XP using bochs, so it affects linux, right?
Confirmed on today's 1.7 mozilla suite.

I don't criticize the tutorial. I criticize the language.
Decimal numbers are called floats in Ruby.

This article is a bit obvious don't you think? Who didn't not know that whole mass mailing business is based on how easy and cheap is sending e-mails?

I ran Knoppix at home and I got a kernel panic while loading the X server. That didn't happen at work, or at home with Redhat 8 and 9.
In that case, I won't study in that school.

If it breaks, you can call some RH engeneer and he'll help you.
If you have to stay up allways, then you need that red phone.

With 20 tabs open it still only reaches up to a 14MB memory footprint
And what do you do with the rest of your GB of RAM?
> The crazy thing is, CSS support is the least of IE's complaints. The security holes are a bigger one.
Yeah, and their holes don't comply with W3C either. They suck.

Just pressing CTRL-ALT-F.
In any case, I'd start by making voting compulsory.

OpenOffice.org 1.1 has compatibility problems with its own format, too. See Bug 16128

Sure, condoms and generic drugs...
Education is cheaper (in the long run) and it's even useful for other stuff, too.
Google runs FreeBSD... Say no more. :-)
