  1. Re:Money talks on U.S. Senators Pressure Canada on Canadian DMCA · · Score: 2, Insightful

    So are other countries like Britain and australia. Pray tell me, why are their own laws insufficient for them? After all britain and australia have had lived with those laws for decades. When US did not bow to the world's request that they get an approval from UN to attack Iraq, stating "we are responsible for our own security.", why should other countries listen to US?

  2. Ahhh... the joys of travelling on American Airlines Is Third Company To Share Data · · Score: 3, Funny

    Actually,, legally... technically... TSA has not broken the Law. Yet.
    But then it was was only natural that the Big Brother will pry out our travel details from the cold hands of Airlines.
    My only worry is my partner working as an agent in TSA and finding out that i travelled to New Mexico without telling her for a fling with my.... THAT would make me sue TSA.!!!

  3. Re:Oh man on Builder.com Writers Outsourced to India · · Score: 1

    Agreed. Seems for USA, free trade= US subsidized products outselling local products elsewhere. When other countries wise up to US tactics, it's time for US to challenge them in WTO. Approve Kytoto USA !!! I dare U

    There was already an advt. along the same lines at ninemsn TV (Sydney) in 2000. where a husband asks his friends to produce late working in office sounds while enjoying beer. It even included a vaccum cleaner sound.

    Read the blog. Good one. But then americans have always claimed they invented the rail engine, airplane and submarine! No surprise in that

  9. Change the business model on Industry Threatened by Innovation at the 'Edge'? · · Score: 5, Insightful
    The business model of the past is changing just like Alvin Toffler predicted.
    Communication will increasingly become cheaper/free. What is communicated matters more than how you communicate. So, in near future we will see a flat rate for communicating using Landline telephones, mobiles, broadband. Iam talking about convergence as people use a variety of devices to communicate and a variety of modes of communication (wired, wireless, IR, etc). The industry will fracture so fast that Verizon will be flat-footed before it can say cheese. Traditional companies can hope to survive only if they change into content providers soon.

  10. Re:India may dominate space... on Fatal Fire at Indian Space Center · · Score: 0

    If US didn't support pakistan, it would have gone under a day later. So, stop supporting future Saddam Hussiens and wake up USA! Democracy and Replublic are for ALL. Not for US alone.

  19. Free Trade according to US... on A Thoughtful Look at Indian Outsourcing · · Score: 1

    Free Trade according to US: 1. ALL countries should import US goods without imposing any import duty. 2. ALL countries must use imported GM grains for planting their crops without any protective tarriffs. 3. ALL countries must beg America for funds year-after-year. 4. ALL countries must have McDonalds and Pizza Huts without restrictions. All conditions must be met if US agrees to a Free trade agreement with other nations. Unfortunately (for US) other national leaders are also as smart and intelligent as US leaders are. These national leaders and citizens will not allow their countries to be raped by US to fulfill US needs. Since these countries have now woken up and are fighting back, US of A immediately wants to outlaw these countries. CHange the rules when the game turns against you! Fine! We too know how to do the same. Try knocking on Europe in 10 years from now. US enemy is not Iraq, China or India. It is Europe! Remember that you morons. Don't fight fate.

  21. EJB is REALLY Bitter on Bitter EJB · · Score: 1, Interesting

    I do agree with the title of the Book. EJB, especially EJB 1.1 and EJB 2.0 are def. very HUGE specifications and as hard to learn as UNIX. You have 1000's of choices which lead wayward programmers easily. Contrast this with M$FT which provides a clear Roadmap and expands complexity slowly to grasp them easier. EJB is like being pushed into the Q Continuum when you are a mere biped and not an omnipotent. It is too huge for you.

    Why is that whenever something technologically advanced comes out of India like the Moon Shot, or Simputer people always say indians should concentrate on basic needs like food, clothing...?
    Is it a bias against india as a whole?
