"...permission to record be given for people who have physical disabilities (such as deafness) that would prevent them from learning the material by hearing it a single time."
I'm not positive about this, and I'd have to check, but I think that if I played a recording to a deaf person, he wouldn't quite pick up on the things he missed during lecture!
...thus prolonging the debate, "Is it possible to be branded the 'Godfathers' of a movement, and have nothing to do with that movement?"
I mean, Goth is something that sprung up long after July 1983, right?
From what I gather, bauhaus weren't dark because they liked the idea of slitting their wrists and longing for the 17th century, but rather because they thought that dub was really cool.
What would make you think Radio Shack would have answers? Has their slogan misled you? You know, the one often misheard as "You've got questions. We've got answers."
Turns out that's not really the slogan, it's just being misinterpreted through slight of tongue on their part and your subconscious saying, "They didn't just say that!" But they really did just say that.
The slogan is actually, "You've got questions. We've got Assholes."

You probably went out and bought one of those "This is not a Fugazi T-shirt" t-shirts, didn't you?
The list of available tracks is just a little thin for those obscurists out there, but I think it will be a great place to buy music sometime soon. Like when you can find stuff from Portishead's "Glory Times" release. Hmmm... That album is made up of mixes of "Glory Box" and "Sour Times." They should have called it "Sour Box!"
I'm not so sure that mod points are the way to go here. I think it would make more sense to have the ability as a moderator to just add a small embedded audio file to his post that makes that "ba-da-ching" drum sound that denotes a punchline. Then if it's just bordering on funny, you could follow that with the sound of a man coughing in the back of the room.
I know that I'm the one with the first post to this article about buying a Kona Nunu, but I agree that there can be fun in coding. But I am also an advocate of not spending too much time on any one thing. Now, on to a more direct response...
"I will say, though, that I don't find writing C++ to be much fun compared to something like Lisp. The creativity I feel when writing code is degraded, not heightened, when I have to take care of menial chores like memory management"
OK, the only Lisp experience I have is from an AI course in college, but isn't taking care of all those damn parentheses a menial chore? Personally, I like wrtiting web stuff in PHP. It makes stuff like setting up a DB connection and doing something with it so trivial that you don't have to concern yourself with it. It leaves you with tons of time to do all sorts of cool stuff with you easily opened connection. For non web stuff, at the risk of running into flameland, I like writing apps with Java. The 1.4 jdk offers a huge advancement in speed, and the swing set offers better handling of the windows AI than the microsoft languages. And it's portable!
That's all I got. It's Friday night and I'm posting to/., after telling the submitter to go out and have fun. Shame on me. Off to dream about the Kona NuNu that I want...
Actually, when I was job hunting that's exactly what I did. I'd written my resume in AbiWord and converted it to StarOffice 5.2 (OO.org 1.0 wasn't released yet). From both of those, I would print to a.ps file, then use a command line tool, I don't remember which (ps2pdf, I think), to convert to PDF. I sent out many resumes as PDF, for none of which did I receive a response. But I blame that on being a relatively inexperienced software developer in the dead city, Pittsburgh, not on the fact that I was sending PDF's.
At the time I sent a submission to Ask/. asking all the HR folk & hiring managers out there how they felt about recieving resumes in PDF format instead of the oft-requested MS Word. Someone from/. replied to me saying that they would posted, but wanted to make sure of what I was asking. I confirmed, and they never posted it.
I moved to a linux desktop with openoffice.org about a year ago, and I used Evolution in place of Outlook. I thought it was great - or least that's what I kept telling myself. What I really found was that it was great to feel like I was cool for using those things, but in all honesty, it sucked. Nothing worked well together. I couldn't copy text in one app and paste it into another. Evolution didn't allow me to change my email font - it required changing the default HTML view of Gnome. What's more, sadly, much of the world is still using MS Office. Sure, openoffice.org can open and even save in documents in office format, but they're not perfect. Formatting gets all screwed up and this causes big problems for things like, say, resumes.
Step away from the code!

C++ on Pocket PC?
·
· Score: 3, Insightful
Look, you're going on a trip. Leave the pocket PC and the C++ code behind. Go to your nearest bike shop and pick up a shiny new Kona NuNu for about $650 US and go hit the singletrack. It will do you some good. Remember, there is life outside of your pocket PC. Trust me, this is the best advice you can recieve, lest you look back in 40 years and see that you spent your life doing anything but living.
It takes great pics and has full manual override for everything. Physically, it seems to be pretty sturdy. Strong metal case, and the LCD has a plastic screen over it - you can't directly touch the LCD screen. It uses Compact Flash cards, and comes with 16MB. Crucial sells 256 for about $65 US and 128 for about $32 US. I can't get exact prices since their site's down for "scheduled maintenence."
Here's some reviews (some of a70 (same camera, but 3.2 megapixels)):
All you motherfuckers are gonna pay, You are the ones who are the ball-lickers. We're gonna fuck your mothers while you watch and cry like little bitches. Once we get to Hollywood and find those Miramax fucks who are making that movie, we're gonna make 'em eat our shit, then shit out our shit, then eat their shit which is made up of our shit that we made 'em eat. Then you're all fucking next. Love, Jay and Silent Bob.

Are my Windows installations vulnerable to this one, too? If it's really that big, then it probably won't fit through port 135 even if I leave it open, right?
It's not just meteors that get compared to volkswagon bugs, those little things are used in all kinds of analogies.

It may be overkill, but they sell an underwater photography case for it.
