I gave this a listen and found it to be quite good, although I think they think some of their humor (actually humour) is funnier than it really is. Anyhow, anyone know of any other good technology related podcasts?
XM and Sirius are definitely cool, but I kind of see it as beta vs vhs. I'd be more interested in a service that doesn't lock you into hardware e.g. this internet radio.
the document format is simply a zip file of xml and meta files. Just run unzip on your file and you'll see. This opens up all sorts of possibilities, including the ability to compare docs via a simple diff, and perform XSL transformations to convert to HTML.
or does that seem a bit odd to bundle it on Fedora? I like Fedora as much as the next guy, but maybe such an expensive solution would be better suited for commercial distribution on a more predictable release schedule e.g. RHEL, Suse Enterprise etc?
I've always wondered why we don't have similar collaboration tools for developing documentation, as we do for developing code. Often when creating design documentation with several other coworkers, we end up using Word and it's a complete nightmare to merge changes. I'd almost prefer DocBook XML and CVS. Anyone aware of a documentation tool that solves this issue?
So does this legitimize music theft, up to the amount of the tax? They should at least give you a gift card at iTunes or equivalent for the amount of the tax.
Stop selling the analog only TVs!. Then wait until the majority of sets are digital before switching.

Yeah I do and you also save in bandwidth (in most cases). I think the biggest gain is a more maintainable web application.
I think the trend in web applications is shifting toward AJAX and we'll see the client taking on more reponsibility in the future. Also, I'm not advocating this design for cacheable content.

You bring up a good point about the implications for search engines. I was thinking more along the lines of dynamic content that is not applicable to search engines e.g. stock trading app etc. Using frameworks such as Hibernate and XStream I can obtain XML from my DB with great efficiency. From there it's just a matter of XSL. And I can deliver as html, pdf, mobile etc. w/ the same XML. I don't think CSS even near 1% close.

Good point about mobile devices, however you could still do the transformation on the client for browsers and on the server for mobile devices and save processing power.

I'm not sure why more web applications don't take advantage of XSLT browser support. It is fast, takes a load off the server and reduces bandwidth. It's incredibly easy too. Check out
If you were to compare Hibernate to EJB, you would be talking about CMP. Spring offers transaction management to fill the session bean gap. I don't think any respectful developer uses stateful session beans anymore.
Hibernate is a high-quality product, but JDO gives you choice.
My experience with JDO (Solarmetric) left me using many of the vendor specific features, and not because I wanted to. Felt more like vendor lock-in to me.
I see this as effectively raising prices for those of us who send rebates, since it will eliminate segmentation. Segmentation is the concept of getting customers to pay as much as the are willing to for a product. Here's a great article on Joel on Software on pricing. I don't see how best buy can offer the same deals after rebate, w/o rebates since they are eliminating the surplus from the folks that don't send them in. I'm also a bit skeptical of the 80% figure.
I'm interested in this type of setup to rebroadcast a station that I can only receive w/ a roof mounted antenna, so that I can get it on my clock radio and other radios throughout the house. Is it possible to broadcast at a power that is legal, yet still have decent coverage in a single family home? Also, would rebroadcasting a station be illegal?
I'm not sure I care how long the print lasts? If it fades, or the quality isn't perfect, you can always print it again in 5, 10, 20 years, with presumably better technology. That is, if we still use printers.

ah that makes complete sense, cares none. and fuck you biaaatch
so he does care some? you lose. and btw, I didn't write it in the first place.
umm by saying he couldn't care less you are implying he cares some, right?

and view the source.. it's XML. All major browsers except Opera support it, AFAIK.
get rid of the "Windows Tax". You can order a dell server w/o an operating system, but not a desktop.

If there are radio shows you like but the time slot is not convenient, record it to mp3 and listen whenever.
This is what I did and I describe how to do it here
the dog ate my homework
ummm you'd get sued, but you could this w/o any hacking.. simple lineout to soundcard.
