It's pretty obvious to me. They clearly are impressed with the quality of the Apache Software Foundation applications, so they figured that if they joined the club, they'd be allowed to see the source code.....
Out of curiosity, what is the best way of getting a tech/comp/programming job in Norway nowadays? It seems to me that they used to be very CV/resume/certification focused for a long time, vs actually having experience.. Do you see that changing at all?
I'm asking since I currently live and work in the US, but I'm considering moving back to Norway in a few years, and whenever I check in on the job market over there, I haven't seen too much of interest yet (which could also be that I'm focusing on Bergen, not Oslo).
Did you try the POC exploit in TFA? The whole point of it is that you see a javascript link that doesn't say "hahahahURmine()", but "externalLink()" or something like it (which doesn't appear to be alarming), and the page you end up on, says www.google.com in the url bar, but you are NOT on google.com, but on usgovernementwantsyoursearchqueries.com and now all your queries belong to US.
I hear ya! I just emailed one of the authors, Paul Thissen (pthissen@mn.rr.com) to show my support. Right now, the bill is in the Governmental Operations and Veterans Affairs Committee... If you're from Minnesota, I'd encourage you to send them your thoughts...
There's a TON of sientifffic evidance that counterdicts this, obviously flawed theory, and that PROVES beyond any doubt that intelligent falling is just as valid and should be taught as a valid theory right next to this supposed "fact"
That's NOTHING! I have a perfectly nice and simple spreadsheet that Calc opens in a few seconds, and Excel STILL hasn't been able to open, after 2hrs of trying and trying..
Here, I'll attach it.... (let me know if/when your spreadsheet software can open it.)
God, I hate when games for linux are only available two full days after their windows counterpart. If linux is EVER going to be a viable gaming platform, we need to demand that it's available at the same time as for windows..
Ahhhhh, one day I'll be able to make a statement like that with a straight face....
I'm a judge in [some foreign country], and would like some training on the global IP rights of US companies, and to join Bushie's "war on piracy".. Anyone know where I can sign up? Do they offer night classes?
Also, older CRT projectors may have some issues. (I have a NEC 6PG hooked to a MMPC in my basement that I'm always a bit worried about when messing with settings in X. (In theory it should be ok with bad sync rates, but there have been cases of people blowing some of the circuits.. )
Sorry to have to break it to you, but just because the people you voted for spin it a certain way, doesn't mean you have to believe it... I'm not sure if you are a liar, you're too trusting, or just simply brainwashed. In either case, nothing I'll say will change your mind. Maybe this link will, though.. Note the date, and this section: Specifically, FEMA is authorized to identify, mobilize, and provide at its discretion, equipment and resources necessary to alleviate the impacts of the emergency (emphasis mine).
I hear ya! I almost got fired for insisting on using the word "visits" as opposed to "users" in all my metrics. Basically, my boss wanted to show the marketing people pretty graphs showing that "This marketing campaign webpage has been seen by x amount of people", which was total bullsh*t, especially since she REFUSED to discard hits from within the company (which I did tally a few times, showing roughly %10-%20) . She also came up with very impressive "cost savings" numbers based on the following formula:
"cost to receive a reqest by phone for a catalog/manual/brochure, print it, stuff it it in an envelop and mail it to a customer" * number of raw hits to PDFs = "amount of money I've saved the company".
Utterly insane, but she did save the company "millions".
I've sent this this URL to several "not very technical" people (a bunch of biologists), even sometimes forgetting to tell them that that they should install the GTK+2 package first, then "The GIMP for Windows" one. I doubt you'd think of yourself as "not very technical", but just in case you are, I'm pointing this out specifically for your benefit . The "not terribly technical" people that I forgot to mention this to, and that tried to install only "The Gimp for Windows" got a reletively nice dialog box telling them to go back and also install GTK+2, which 100% of them managed to do completely on their own!!! (and none of them complained about it being a "pain in ass")
A real story:
The corporate browser standard was IE 5.5 on Windows 2000, so naturally the intranet dev team and the contractors they hired create a slick-looking portal that only worked in IE 5.5, and only on IE5.5. There were a few people on old windows boxes that couldn't use it (even IE5 didn't work, and even a particular build number of IE5.5 was shown not to work), some mac users in the graphics dept, all the engineers on unix couldn't use it, but nobody cared (it was a company standard after all), until the CFO got himself a new computer with IE6 on it and raised hell because he was shut out of the Intranet(partially due to some really stupid attempts at "browser sniffing"). So what do they do? They spend a bunch of time, and even more money tweaking the thing until it works in IE6. As a side-effect, Opera with a spoofed useragent was now allowed on (never did try Firefox w/ useragent spoofing), and it mostly worked (looked like sh*t, but it worked), but they also ended up changing the look and feel a little (something to do with chromeless windows and css positioning), so that it didn't look as good in IE5 anymore.
Try going to ANYONE involved in that fiasco (except, perhaps the intranet manager with the small World View and asinine opinion that they might as well only code towards IE5.5 since it currently was the corporate standard) that they should "do business" with anyone selling "IE only" products, and see if you can get that by the CFO, the product control, the steering committees, etc. You'll quickly find out who's LOW on the list of products to consider. And yes, I would like to know what company the great-grandparent post is talking about, 'cause
Step 1: Create popular, mission critical software that every business will want to install Step 2: Insert sneaky vulnerabilities Step 3: Sell bugs to 3COM Step 4: PROFIT!!!!
As much as I would love to claim Linus as a fellow Norwegian, I can't given that he's from Finland. (And If I did, like MikeMacK does, I'd be worried about a bunch of angry drunken finns tracking me down, looking for somewhere to stick their knives...(Not that all finns are drunks, or knife weilders, but I'd be worried nontheless...))
Cause then i could convince my boss to get me one

You are wrong (and probably an ignorant little Coward as well). There are many definitions of marriage, and most dictionaries include same-sex marriage in their definition.
The hategroups wanting to "protect" my marriage are, in my oppinion, are of the same ilk as neo-nazis and the klan.
They had a mag card reader like this at my college's computer room, except their problem was that they forgot to hoook it up to the button for handicapped people, so just hitting that would not only unlock the door, but open it for you as well..
Wouldn't do it for a database, but for most other stuff, we run many (sometimes 15+) vmware instances on each physical, 4-8 CPU box, and one our vendors was just caught off guard when they confirmed that the pr cpu licensing scheme they stupidly employ ment that we could install their software on each vmware instance, but only pay for 8 licenses... Bad for them, but good for us since they will be supporting 15 "installs". I think they are seriously going to reconsider their licensing in the future..
Try Kimdaba http://ktown.kde.org/kimdaba/
The single most useful feature sounds similar to the "KeyWords" feature mentioned above. It's got a few predefined categories, but will let you define your own, and that combined with using EXIF data, will let you very easily (once the pics have been categorized) do things like: Show me all pictures taken in Norway on July 9th.
It doesn't care about the folder structure (you point it to a "root", like/mediafile/photos), has some pretty decent "Export to HTML album" and some rudimentary editing capabilities. (uses KIPI plugins).
