  1. Re:Google can be more specific on Is Linux Documentation Lacking? · · Score: 1

    I guess that would not be to hard for any person willing to read the manual page of find. This manual page is very helpful in using this particular problem as an example:

    To ignore a whole directory tree, use -prune rather
    than checking every file in the tree. For example, to skip the
    directory 'src/emacs' and all files and directories under it,
    and print the names of the other files found, do something like
    this:
                                          find . -path './src/emacs' -prune -o -print

    There is lots to say about documentation on Linux, but the find manual page is not a good example.

  2. Re:This is stupid on Mozilla SSL Policy Considered Bad For the Web · · Score: 1

    This sounds great. But please don't use alert boxes. People gave up on reading them.

    The way the message is displayed in Firefox 3 makes that people are reading them. But the message itself is not clear.

  3. Profit? on LSI Patents the Doubly-Linked List · · Score: 1

    Profit comes only if the companies you sue think or the judge decides your patant holds.

    In the Netherlands, where I live, patents are given without any checks on the claims. When you apply you should do the checks yourself or try to convince a judge afterwards.

  4. Re:But no privacy in the land of the free on German ISP Forced To Delete IP Logs · · Score: 1
    freedoms (e.g. speech,press) are more limited in countries like Germany
    Salvance, can you give some example of why speech and press are more free in America than in Germany. I am curious to what is more limited in Germany, or a country like Germany.
