If only CAN-SPAM were 1/10th as effective as the do-not-call list. It's strange: I didn't sign up for the do-not-call list, but the number of telemarkters calling has still declined rather sharply. On the other hand, spammers, in the face of legislation, have apparently decided it would be better to send more spam than ever before.

The evidence doesn't really support your claims. There are manypeoplehackingthe iPod every day. There are entire sites about it.
The iPod works seemlessly with Microsoft Windows. Apple even ported their jukebox program over to it! Does that really sound like a company whose motto is "Interoperate And Die!" Jesus.
Why is it that you're lambasting Apple for this particular decision (heavy-handed though it may be), but you haven't raised your voice in protest over their lack of WMA inclusion? Oh, right...they have a vested interest in promoting their own file formats...WHICH IS WHAT THEY'RE DOING RIGHT NOW!
Look...it's hard to laud Apple for this (though some people are trying). I'd much rather have had them do nothing. But really...who cares? Real was stupid to try it.

bwahaha...ok, wait a second
Unfortunately, the machine knocking down McCain is funded by the democrat party. Those calls made in South Carolina were not funded by George W. Bush. There were funded by prominent democrats in the area.
I'm quoting this so that you'll get a chance to re-read your own comment. God...it must be an exciting life to be a higher-up in the democratic party: it's all "assassinate this" and "push-poll that." You really think the democratic party in South Carolina even gave more than a cursory glance to the mudslinging between Bush & McCain? You still believe it was some anonymous, secretive democrats when Bush himself was eager to hit McCain's "soft spots" in South Carolina?
No, never attribute to malice (at least, democrat malice) what can far more easily be attributed to Karl Rove.
Similarly, get rid of all your OS-9 era employees. Face it, it was NeXT that aquired Apple, not the other way around. The OS-9 people that failed to bring your company into the 21st century should be working elsewhere.
Ugh. iMac's shipped with OS 8.6. It was us classic diehards that kept the company alive during the various next-generation OS debacles in the mid to late 90s. OS X could still benefit from some UI concepts that were introduced a long time ago in the classic Mac OS.
Look at it this way, you have an xbox/ps2 that you want to get online and have also been looking for an easy way to listen to your iTunes music on your stereo. For $129 you get a bridge that will allow you to get your console online and an audio out to pipe into your stereo.
This is actually exactly the first thing I thought of when I started reading about it. If it can work with existing wireless hardware, I think it'll do very, very well (for example, I have a wired Mac, and a Netgear wireless router. If you go from the Wired Mac -> Wireless Router -> Airport Express -> Stereo, as well as Cable Modem -> Wireless Router -> Airport Express -> Xbox, it's one heck of a device. And I don't see why you couldn't.)
But at the end of the day it really makes no great impact which way these things go. At the end of the day there may or may not be legal abortion, but your rights such as free speech WILL be eroded.

Well, there are plenty of open source content management systems, but some people still pay for some that are closed source. And some people pay for those that are _open source_, but not free.
You know why? Because most of these open source content management systems suck. That's what MT is banking on: that their very inexpensive software will do more and do it better than other free software out there. We'll see if they can deliver the goods.
There was a lot of similar bitching when Apple started to charge for iLife 04. But plenty of people have bought iLife 04. Why is that? Because, for people who aren't cheapass bastards, software that's elegant and works well is better than software that's a little bit cheaper, and works poorly.
Now, I'm not completely disagreeing with you: as the MT license gets more and more expensive, for a greater number of users, it starts to look a bit more foolish, and my argument about software that's "a little bit more expensive" is less compelling, since at this point it's a lot more expensive. But we'll see how they do.
It's only a little more than a 100k. However, in defense of the user, the file is called "Microsoft Office 2004 Web Install.app", implying that the bulk of the data will be downloaded and then installed. Still, it was a stupid, stupid thing to do.
You might want to check again. At least, in the browser I'm running, setting a custom stylesheet with everything on display: none will still download all of the content - it just won't display it.
Try it out. Change everything in your custom stylesheet to
body {display: none}
You'll get a blank page, but I bet the status bar will reflect that images and the page are being downloaded.
Um... but if id is an integer won't your first line fail completely?
Actually, it won't - at least not in MySQL. Even if your ID column is some kind of an INT column, putting single or double quotes around the ID into the SQL script will run without any error in MySQL - even from the command line.
$array[key] First we have to check if 'key' has been defined as a constant
define(key, 'blah')
But, if it's not a constant, PHP converts it into a string.
If you loop through an array a whole bunch of times and do it throughout your script...yeah, I'd imagine it'd impact performance (although I'm not sure if it would do so significantly)

Do you also think largely? Or would rather think big?
So, if I run modified AGPL software on an intranet site, I have to release my modifications to the entire internet? What a puzzling license...

Most likely because
$array['key']
'key' is most definitely a string.
