  1. Re:Dear President Bush on SCO Ordered to Produce Evidence · · Score: 1

    Um...the persona of the writer (e.g. me) is different from the persona of the writer of the letter (who, presumably would be Daryl what-his-face)

  2. Dear President Bush on SCO Ordered to Produce Evidence · · Score: 2, Funny
    GNU/Linux users are terrorists.

    The perverse and atheistic ideology on which this evil is based, called GPL by its fanatical supporters, threatens democracy and freedom throughout the world. It is no less dangerous than the Baathist insurgency threatening our civilizing mission in Iraq.

    More insidiously, it is currently being used to develop WMD's throughout the world , notably in The People's Republic of China that sinister paragon of evil, which incidentally we should now add to the axis of evil, now that Iraq has been bumped off the list, and you need to keep the number at 3.

    As part of the war on terrorism, therefore, I urge you actively to pursue a crusade against this unrelenting cancer which threatens us all.

    Yours anonymously,

  3. Weird thing on stack on Gnarly Error Messages · · Score: 1

    An infrequent error message in the otherwise wonderful T programming language, developed in the late 1980's at Yale. Helas T has not been for over a decade and wasn't ported to many architectures (sparc and a few others, but not X86)

  4. Re:Lists vs. Reasoning on Ask Dr. Richard Wallace, Artificial Intelligence Researcher · · Score: 1

    More simply, I believe many questions can be referred to an underlying math engine (such as maxima, now GPL'd). Thus Alice could answer arithmetical questions, solve some equations, determine the value of a function or tell me something about properties of integers.
