Just what do you base this pile of shit on ? Living in both Europe and now in the US (oh yeah "America" is a continent; not a country) I see how american football is just as patriotic as "real football". Major sports have been about money for a long long time. Think about the 10 million pound transfer fees in soccer; all the olympic sponsors; it's no better or worse here. Consumerism is everywhere; learn to live with it buddy. I've lived 15 years under soft socialism; that's much less fun... I'd really appreciate if one of these "america sucks" advocates explained why the US is so much more evil than any of the other industrialized countries.
Puhlase. The US is imperialistic at worst. Comparing it to Nazi Germany shows that you neither have the faintest clue about history nor have any respect who suffered a lot from the Nazis.
Well; yes and no... Did you see this part in the article..my team and I noticed a couple of years ago, in analyzing packet traces of IE's connection setup procedure. Microsoft might have fixed this since then; I'm not sure.
I agree that a slashdot editor should've verified that IE still behaves the way the article says, but you don't expect me to do the same first thing in the morning before taking a shower.
Americans are not 55-45 on most of the issues that are mentioned in the article. More like 95-5; just think about how much vote Ralph Nader got last time. (I'm not suggesting any correlation between voting for him and supporting the free state, but I hope you get what I mean). Additionally people who are for princliples like that tend to flock to metropolitan areas; not exactly Montana. Nice idea to think about, but I'd much rather petition my local representatives.
Damian was illustrating advanced concepts in this article. Things are not going to get more complicated if you are a mid level perl programmer and never cared about zero-width positive look-behind assertions. Other good news is that perl6 is not expected to be production ready for at least 4 years; you have plenty of time to become a perl wizard.
are they going to use MySQL where every sensible IT person would use Oracle or some other non-open DB ? Functionality, price and opensource-ness should be a few of the things Peru considers when making a decision. Linux beats Windoz in all of these departments; there's really no need to require open sourceness.
If you are the tech lead and is tasked the impossible just speak up. Blaming buffer overflows on PM-s is questionable at best... I have experience with both technical and "clueless" project managers. The key with non-technical ones is to win their trust so they ask your opinions before committing to any projects. You can try to intimidate them with detailed technical description, to get the point across that they "don't know shit":-)
What if MS tells the truth and most of their security is really through obscurity ? No sane judge would make them release the source code then; there is just too much code and too many security holes to fix. Consquently MS will have its "corporate security". IMO the only possibility is to force open APIs or sourcecode in newly realeased products starting X years from now.
Are you actually able to use Java with Galeon/Mozilla ? My only gripe with them is java applets causing a core dump every 15 minutes. For java only hotjava works for me.
I'm sure it's true what you say but work can be modeled by a realtime system much better, so you might be much better off by working on more than one thing at a time...

Of course you can calculate the MD5 checksum for every file, but you seem to miss the bigger picture. Taking the Linux kernel as an example:
1. You check on ftp://ftp.kernel.org/ the MD5 checksum of the kernel you want to download.
2. Find a mirror and download that kernel.
3. Calculate MD5 on the downloaded file and compare it to the checksum from ftp://ftp.kernel.org/
The problem with music files is that even if you start from the same CD so many different wav->mp3 converters can be used that it's impractical.

Information theory is about streams of data that you do not know before compression. You can compress anything into 1 bit like this:
compress(x) = if(x==PI) {1}
else { "0x" }
Mod parent up !
There is an OSS project I can contribute to !
How would a winning party in any country change the election laws and make them more fair if they just got them majority ?

If it's small enough you can store the file in the inode.

That'd make 4 zeros the non routable barcodes...

The only challenge I see is moving Earth to an outer orbit so that a year would be 100 days.
I love how MySQL describes itself as implementing an extended subset of the SQL standard.
ps: Why was the parent post a troll ?

Very very interesting. Do you know if the slides are available too ?
