  1. The patent was filed in 1995 on Net2phone Sues Skype · · Score: 1

    That predates ICQ et al.

  2. SUN's stock price up on X17 Solar Flare Sends 2B Tons of Plasma at Earth · · Score: 1

    Think there is a connection?

  3. How about Coke Machines and TVs too on Help Wire Remote Laos Villages · · Score: 1

    Are there any other trappings of western culture that those poor Laotians do not have? Poor things.

  4. To a hammer, the whole world looks like nails. on The Empire Stumbles · · Score: 1

    However, hammers just bang nails. They don't offer sociological theories based on events at the construction yard. I suggest that you go back to the movies, or TV, or whatever it is you do, and resist the urge to share your image of the world with the rest of us.

  5. XSLT is to XML what SQL is to RDMS on Going from Perl to XSL? · · Score: 1

    That is, it is a powerful functional language which gives great control over XML data. I contend that, if you do it right, your XSL code will be cleaner, easier to maintain, and faster than the same written in Perl.For one thing, XSLT *forces* you to output well-formed HTML (or XHTML). Perl will let you write whatever you want. Second, although it is a "functional" language, it has borrowed features from OO languages like C++. For example, one can "override" templates with custom implementations.
