Surely X10 don't manage the technical side of their popup campaign, one of their creditors will be doing that. If they file for bankrupcy protection, I don't think their creditors will want to carry on providing a service which X10 won't be paying for.
WinFS is an object oriented database

CNet on WinFS

WinFS sounds like it is going to be an object oriented database mounted as a file system.
It will have standard filesystem object types such as directories and files, but developers will be able to expand on these basic types to create complex media types and intergrate databases with the file system.
I can't wait, although i don't know what its going to do to my business. It looks like its going to do what our object oriented database does plus more. We better start coding catchup. Maybe if we release a similar product to WinFS in say a year we can corner that market before Microsoft does. Wishfull thinking.
I don't want to go the same way at Netscape...
My company produces web based orject oriented database software that relies on dns reporting broken domains for some important internal operations.
Site finder totally broke my software and we had to send patches to all our clients who all reported software failure on the same day sitefinder was launched.
As a small business what am I supposed to do about big corporations changing the way the Internet works?
Our software is complient with the RFC's, now we have to be Verisign complient too.

my university has 'chmod 644' backups of/etc/shadow for anyone to read. anyone can ftp this of the public unix box and rip the passwords out of the 30,000 staff, student and admin accounts contained within. they could then steal, delete or change every last byte of data on the network. if the admins are dumb enougth to leave such critical files unsecured, how many serious attacks remain undiscovered as well?
you ignorant ass i didn't even give my own opinion in the issue, i just pointed out that Rik has a strong opinion on the subject (not me). if you read the link i posted you'd see what i mean. i'm sitting on the fence on this one, see please don't attack me again;(

perhaps there was a slight hint at sarcasm in my reference to kevin warwick, but we all love him really. he even offered me a place on his course at Reading uni. i decided against.
when i said AI, i kind of meant neural nets, alife, and such things. i admit i could have worded it better. oh well, its a first article for me, better luck next time.
I think the evolution of IPv6 will take place in new networks, for example 3G mobile nets. Over time this new networks will take over the old ones, and one by one IPv6 nets will become obselete and switched off. I'll agree that a large number of networks will convert from v4 to v6, for example academic networks, but most will just fade into the past. Perhaps one day the v4 internet will become a cult network once again ruled by the hackers that invented it.
I'd wager a great deal more than 5% is inaccessible if you count all the home sites locked away behind nat firewalls. Once we all start getting hundreds of IPv6 addresses at home, we'll start to see hundreds more small home/user sites popping up. This could greatly change the structure of the net, once again breaking away from the central information resources we are beggining to solely rely on and start using small independent resources much more.
there was a/. article on it yesterday. bbc radio 4 are rerunning it from january.
personally i don't think it should be compared to the film, for it is not like for like. they are two different medium and approaches to the story. i will go as far to say they have done a wonderful job, sticking very closely to the subtleties of toltiens story line. when i listen to at night, in complete darkness, with only my imagination to guide me, gollum is more terrifying than any so called horror film i've ever seen. quite disturbing.
i got out of bed and had a rant on irc. had dinner with family, then headed too the study to work on my secret coding project. there bugger all else to do, tv is 25 year old xmas special repeats.
i couldn't think of a better way to spend my holiday than coding whilst listening to bbc lord of the rings (i should convert it too ogg vorbis).
I feel Hugo Weavings performance in lotr was very similar to that of the Matrix (playing Agent Smith).
The logical answer is that he was indeed playing an agent, and middle earth is either a patch for the matrix or an earlier firmware revision.

i have something else my palm is in sync with ;)

photons aren't exactly mordern technology. maybe the software and hardware used was high tech, but not the lasers.

maybe someone should take verisign to court for letting spammers use their dns servers.

i'm getting that too. i'm gonna have to use altavista again. like old skool searching style.

Rik van Riel on Kernels, VMs, and Linux certainly has a few complaints regarding this issue!

Its nice too see someone else who has followed his works.
