  2. this is so not the way to go on Would you Warranty Your Email? · · Score: 3, Insightful

    why does evry problem in life have to be solved by creating a free and open market?

    I for one think that there are some things that can not be solved simply by attaching a price tag to it.

    do you want to polute? how much money do you have to buy pollution credits?
    do you want to send email? how much money do you have to buy a warenty?
    do you want to get laws passed how much money do you have to "lobby" with.

    sigh...:(

  14. Re:Get the F out... on UK to Put Monitors in Every Car? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    it would be possible to filter out things like that.
    or example:
    Traveling in the bus lane for more than 5 minutes.
    or staying above the speed limit for more than 15 minutes, or failing to slow down for a speed zone.

    I totally agree with you that this would be a total bullshit invasion of privacy, I am just saying there are probably lesss problems with actually implimenting it than you let on.

  20. I would use java on Drawing Graphs on Your Browser? · · Score: 1

    first the word "ENTERPISE" is a pet peeve of mine.
    exactly what does it mean?
    as far as I can tell, its supposed to mean high end software with every feature possible and a much lower than average bug count.

    but that dosen't tell you if ie5 is a large enough target market, and itdoesn't tell you if a plugin is acceptable to use.

    If you have 100% control over the machines you will be installing on then yes ie5 is an aceptable taget.

    it is always acceptable to expepect the user to intall a
    plugin if
    1. your software is a useful AND
    2. your software will be used many many times.
    don't expect a user to install some fucking plugin to visit your site once.

    as for the technical aspect.
    I would use java, based completely on the fact that I know how to use java.
    there would be a huge learning curve for me to use flash, or SVG....but I'm not the issue.

    go to the guy who is going to do the coding and ask him what technology they know best.

    then use it.
