"I hate the sun!" is goth-speak for either "I think I look better witout a tan." or "I don't like it when it's too hot."
I can tell you: She doesn't hate you at all. She just think you are a dork. Because OF COURSE she would die without the sun, everybody would. That's not what she meant.
Strong left-brainers and strong right-brainers don't match. She think you are a boring nerd and you think she is snotty. Probably neither is true.
If you haven't done so yet, check out Lighttpd! An incredible fast and feature-rich yet minimalistic BSD-licensed webserver! My favourite part is that it runs PHP inside one or several minimal FastCGI-daemon(s) which can be placed on any host, so Lighttpd will act as a load-balancing frontend serving data from several hosts running only PHP (and no webserver at all)...
For instance, trying to deal with things like hierarchical structures, or joining on having identical/similar children, is a nightmare in SQL.
Oracle (and maybe some other?) databases implement a SQL extension (the CONNECT BY syntax) to handle this. It's also available for PostgreSQL using the hier-patch. Hopefully it will make it into the ANSI standard sometime because it's really useful!
Say you have a table with the columns "id" and "parent" (which is a foreign key to the id-column). Then you can get a tree by using:
SELECT * FROM $table CONNECT BY PRIOR id=parent START WITH $id;
It will also append an extra column to each row called "_level_" containing the "depth" of the row.
As the name suggests, Verified Exec verifies a cryptographic hash before allowing execution of binaries and scripts.
This can be used to prevent a system from running binaries or scripts which have been illegally modified or installed. In addition, Verified Exec can also be used to limit the use of script interpreters to authorized scripts only and disallow interactive use.
I've been looking for something like this for Linux some time ago. Anyone here know if it exists?
Since I started using triggers, checks and functions/stored procedures when modelling my databases I can no longer understand why people use MySQL.. PostgreSQL is so much better than MySQL in every single way I can think of! Looking at the MySQL TODO-list I will take a look at it again after 5.1 is released but until then I consider it a toy. At least for applications more advanced than a personal blog..
Please. MySQL is a good SQL database for SQL newbies but it doesn't even support the most basic things that are required for more advanced projects.
In any well designed database you want to move the data-logic to the database where it belongs. You can probably live without statement-level stored procedures and views, but MySQL doesn't even support foreign keys, triggers and checks which are essential when you need to make sure your data is consistent.
In the future, when recommending a database to someone who is talking about Oracle, MsSQL, Sybase etc, please point them to PostgreSQL instead of MySQL. At least until MySQL v5.1 is released because there's where they plan to implement these features.
Maybe this is a good way to promote P2P broadcasting? PeerCast is an Open Source (not sure about the license but the sourcecode is available using Subversion) P2P broadcasting system which works great! I've not tried broadcasting/viewing videostreams, just listened to radiostations, but it has support for MP3, OGG Vorbis, Theora, WMA, WMV and NSV streams. Very easy to install and use, it's just a single executable!
You just point it to a streaming source (for example your own IceCast server, a WMV stream which you have access to or your favourite internet radiostation) and the stream is available on the PeerCast network for everybody to listen to or watch, just pointing your favourite player to a http://localhost-URL.
That's "hear, hear." Think of the children. Please.
You think that's a bad typo? Check the pictures on THIS page.. Some religios fanatic morons doing a small demonstration outside a gaycafé in Stockholm during the Pridefestival... LOL
That page is now my browser's startpage. Very cool project!:)
If you're doing it just to get a share of the (in-)famous Swedish girls I can tell you that almost everybody in Sweden can speak English (although the Swenglish pronouciation can sound somewhat funny *g*) so that's unneccesary.:)
Sure, gay rights is a big and important political question right now because gay people are being politically opressed but homosexuality in itself is not a big thing, that's what I meant.
I'm openly bisexual myself and I just hate it when they make a big thing out of homo/bi/trans sexuality, like it's supposed to be sensational or chocking or something.. Get over it, it's no big deal..
That said, I love seeing gay love (I'm not talking about sex this time) in movies, when it just happens and they don't make a big thing out of it.. It's unfortunatly very rare in the westen world, but in asian movies (at least japanese and korean) you sometimes see gay/lesbian lovers and it's just there as a part of the plot and they don't focus on it anymore than they would have done with a straight couple. Beautiful!
I'd really love to see a fun lovestory adventuregame like Monkey Island but where Elaine is a guy (or even better, a transsexual) but they just ARE without making it a "gay-game"...
You really can't compare Qt with GTK because Qt is more like a development platform/framework than a just a GUI-library. WxWidgets is much closer to Qt than GTK will ever be (and it uses GTK for GUI-drawing on X11), but Wx is nowhere as mature as Qt at this point.
I started to use Wx for an application I'm working on, but it was impossible to even get a decent looking TreeView/CList with checkboxes which resizes in a sane way. After much frustration with Wx I switched to plain GTK in which I could great a GUI the way I wanted to, but now instead I have to look for external libraries for everything like sound playback, database connectivity, networking support, regexps, and much much more. It's like hell to support on several platforms.:P
If Qt-Free was avaiable on Windows I could stick to Qt-conventions and support the application on all platforms with just a simple recompile.
but a co-worker was going to empty the database logfile of really critical Progress database because the filesystem was almost full and we needed a few more hours than we had to be able to expand the filesystem.. The logfile is called "pas.lg" and is in the same dir as the database file "pas.db".. I think you've all guessed by now that instead of ">pas.lg" he wrote ">pas.db" and saw it the same millisecond he pressed enter, but too late.. His face turned white and I had to take him out to have a cigarette to make him not faint while telling the other co-workers to immediatly restore the almost 24h old backup. We lost a customer on that one.

Stealing GPL code is taking from the poor and giving to the rich. Reverse Robin Hood. Simple as that.

Could this possibly mean a sequel to the System Shock franchise?
Wait until tomorrow and you will find out.
Please stop! You're making it harder for legitimate pirates also!
Hear, hear!

red for Republican or blue for Democrat

Shouldn't that be the other way around?
Now I understand American politics even less..

Not me either. I go outside. That's the best part. ;)
I saw Kraftwerk live just 3 days ago, fucking fantastic show!
Hard industrial music, lots and lots of black coffee and cigarettes.
