  1. I took this survey and the question was misleading on Canadians Find Traffic Shaping "Reasonable" · · Score: 1

    I actually took this phone survey. When they asked about traffic shaping, I told the interviewer that the question was extremely misleading. At the end of the interview, I emailed the polling company to express my alarm that they were using such misleading questions. I would recommend others who took this survey do the same.

    Yep. Imagine the datacenter power savings alone... and reduced CO2 emissions...

  3. the bottom line on Siemens Develops Multi-Purpose Surveillance System · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Every time I hear about software that boasts of correlating mass security data and gaining knowledge from those data, I see the big smile on the General Sales Manager's face. Yes, it's "good for the software industry" but imo, it's the classic "bill of goods".

    It used to take 6200 lines of code to get the job done, but now I'm using Rails exclusively, and it takes 62 lines of code...

  12. .xml .pdf would work for me on Fulfilling the Promise of XML-based Office Suites? · · Score: 1

    Our customers generate contracts in .pdf format. Later on, they want to generate reports. These reports go back to the database and (for a second time) transfer from the *RDBMS* paradigm to the user paradigm.
