  1. Expando button on Microsoft Vista User Interface Guidelines Published · · Score: 1
    This is an awesome name for the little Advanced >> button on some dialogs. From the guidelines:
    "Consider cleaning up your dialog by using a More Options "expando" button, so advanced or rarely used options remain hidden by default."
  2. Re:"Tiger-Cats"? on Red Hat Founder Offers Help in Apple vs.Tiger Lawsuit · · Score: 1

    I think Mac OS X should quit the feline naming scheme and jump to a Canadian Football Leage naming scheme. It would be impossible for Longhorn to compete with an operating system named "Mac OS X 10.5: Roughriders"

  3. Googlebot/2.1 (+http://www.googlebot.com/bot.html) on Is Google Breaking Their Own Rules? · · Score: 1
    Try this:
    % telnet adwords.google.co.uk 80
    GET /support/bin/answer.py?answer=9653&topic=65 HTTP/1.1
    Host: adwords.google.co.uk
    User-Agent: Googlebot/2.1 (+http://www.googlebot.com/bot.html)

    This will let you see the webpage as intended for the Googlebot! For best results, I recommend you set your browser's user-agent to "Googlebot/2.1 (+http://www.googlebot.com/bot.html)"

    Glazed Lists - list transformation engine

  4. Re:My Favorites on What are Some Essential Java Libraries? · · Score: 1

    You can use Glazed Lists without Swing. All you need to do is grab an EventList for use in a JSTL forEach tag.

  5. You're a geek, but it's a cool idea. on Best Live Linux For Christmas Giving? · · Score: 1

    You're a geek, but it's a cool idea.

  6. Subversion on Home Directory In CVS · · Score: 1

    Installing the subversion server is a bitch. Especially if you're not already running Apache 2.x. As for the client, it's not being maintained for OS X any more on Fink. So if you have OS X and you want Subversion, it's a huge pain in the ass. But the program itself is cleaner and nicer than CVS. I just wish it came with my Mac.

  7. ARMS RACE -- viruses will just need to use port 80 on Should ISPs Be The Little Man's Firewall? · · Score: 1

    This will just cause application developers to use port 80 for everything. They already are for WebDAV and SOAP. And then virus writers will use port 80 for everything. IIS worms are great! Write your own! Closing ports doesn't solve the problem. It just ties the arms of application developers.

  8. Re:Core JAVA on Seeking a Solid Java Textbook? · · Score: 1

    The CORE series rocks. It is an excellent resource for Java and "how do I .. . ." in Java. We used it at the University of Waterloo for our first year programming courses and we had much success!

  9. WebObjects on Panther Server to Include JBoss · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Does this mean an end to Apple's own J2EE server, WebObjects? It's been stuck at EJB 1.1 and I would like to see Apple abandon that in favour of value-added JBoss services.
