    And yes, it's quite easy for anyone with a education in CS I'd say. If you can read a manual you can implement google maps.

    Hello,

    May I inquisit you for your current address. The mind polic^H^H^H^H^H^H^H FBI would like to know.

    Please stay put on your current location awaiting anti terrorist-squad.

  3. Re:Hehe, PS3 cures cancer.. on PS3 Client for Folding@Home Debuts, ATI GPU Version Soon · · Score: 1

    It needs to be transparant as a screensaver or something. Also, I'm not sure I'd want my PS3 on all the time either unless it handles heat extremely well. Something we've learnt from history that not all consoles do. Even the old Super NES (NES16) used to choke after a couple of days... I've got friends that fried theirs after heavy-duty playing sessions.

  4. Re:Not an issue... on Biofuel Production to Cause Water Shortages? · · Score: 1, Insightful

    Only problem is, in sweden the environmental fascists have decided we're closing our nuckukulear (or do you spell nuclear nuculear in american english nowdays? :D) plants instead of building new ones. Because we're soo in love with renewable energy sources. That's why they see it as a "problem". God help us. Luckly it's soon time for a new election here..

    Hear the sheeps? Can you hear it? The unmistakable sound of people pulling shit out of their ASSES. Marketing speak from the clueless boards of disinformation.
    Speaking as someone who runs a bunch of sites for a, my firm netting midrange xx,xxx usd this year based on about 2½ years work. This income is from my traffic. Not my super ideas, not my uber talent at coding, especially not my elite design skills. Especially not from me doing web2.0. However, the only requirement from my income is that I work like a hour a day keeping things flowing + make sure servers are up (not like now, when the main hdd in one of my servers is down.. :(( ).
    Digg is ranked #153 in the world according to alexa. That means there are 152 sites bigger than it, and about 3294823094820934 sites smaller. Digg is HUGE in terms of traffic. Traffic equals ad dollars. It is that simple. You can run a highly specialised site on medical advice and get high paying vistors, or you can run a generic flash-game-arcade site that gives a couple of cents per 1000 impression. Regardless of what type of site you run, a visitor equals income.

    Digg doesnt do anything particular at this moment for different users, neither do I. Sure, you can probably increase your CPM if you can direct ads, but it is what makes the site it's worth? No its not. Without traffic any site is NOTHING. It's not about smart ad systems, its not about web2.0.

    It's traffic.

  19. Re:Standards on Do You Care if Your Website is W3C Compliant? · · Score: 1

    If you have defined your standard there's really no reason a company would show to not display it except out of pure malice. I dont see why.

    If the web goes on to XHTML++ that's not even built upon a xml/sgml-like language, a "browser" would still be able to parse a XHTML-page if it was defined as such and built with standards. Just fallback to the old standard.

  20. Standards on Do You Care if Your Website is W3C Compliant? · · Score: 4, Insightful

    A standard compliant website more or less guarantees that your website will work atleast decently now, tomorrow and in the far future. A non-standard with hacks might just aswell not render at all in 4 years.

    I'm not religious about it, but I try to make it as compliant as possible as I go, run your pages thru the validator a couple of times and you'll pick up your errors quite quickly.

    Nowadays, about 60-70% of my pages validates automaticlly on the first try.

    Because they suck ass.

    You can only use the stereo mode while not using the mic, and it's still suboptimal sound quality. And they're quite buggy.. Not a buy I would recommend anyone :p.

    I find it easier to remember keyword shortcuts in Vim's way. Honestly, ctrl-random-char just doesnt cut it for me. Esc for command mode, and then one key. Thats all it takes. Works better with strange terminal emulations too.
