Ugh, I didn't realize how weak their future plan is. This whole search thing is a total traffic-generating ploy. They don't even plan on keeping it after they go "live"...
Check this out: The Company has developed a substantial privacy-based information site with thousands of links to privacy issues, news, books and organizations. The company is constantly updating and improving this site and when it is ready for proper launch it will replace the existing search-based site as the home page and central focus of the web site in February, 2000. At such time, the existing search-based web site will be retired from service.
give me a break...

Sounds like a great idea, but where's the money? If there's no registration, there's no established user base. If there's no advertising, where's the revenue? At least most IPO-crazed vaporstartups at least have an idea of making money down the road on advertising.
Anyone have the inside scoop?

yeah, but in the past N years the Linux TCP/IP stack has been rewritten from the ground up something like 7 times. At least as of NT 4 (I don't know anyone working on 2000) the stack was the same code that was written for win3.1

Germany is a major industrialized country. But the US is bigger, and although this has been used to the detriment of other countries recently, the US has shown remarkable (scary?) ability to influence policy decisions abroad.
So, what can we in the USA do? Any suggestions?

Although they do release the source to NT to select partner schools/companies, I've heard some people inside MS say that they would never release it generally because they are embarrassed at how sloppy/messy it is.

UNIX is really just a way of organizing an operating system, rather than an OS itself. The essential features of UNIX (user-process-shell-kernel architecture) will probably be in use as long as there is a command-line anywhere on the earth.
Since it's so much more versatile than an all-in-one GUI approach (like win9x but not really like the original NT architecture) it's unlikely to die out as a concept even if every single currently existing UNIX maker goes out of business.

The only thing I ever use the SprintPCS WW for is to check my account balance and minutes used/left. This is a huge time saver, since it previously required me to talk to a dumbotron "customer care advocate" and wait on hold. Ick.
On the other hand, the damn thing doesn't work half the time, giving all kinds of arcane errors.
Sure, I once spent $3.50 browsing through amazon, but it would have taken me about $5.00 just to enter my address and credit card number. thanks but no thanks Sprint.

This seems like a sweet development, but I've got SNET ADSL service hooked up to a SpeedStream 5660 ADSL "modem"/router that claims to have DHCP, NAT, etc etc hooked up.
However, I have not been able to access its features to get it set up for home newtorking. I think this is related to the special trip the phone company people took to my house in order to "configure" the box before I could touch it.
Anyone had any luck setting up real home networking in this kind of environment? Will these same problems plague the new cool stuff coming out of Motorola?

Except that in many vision applications the difference between two interpretations of a shape-image is a handful of pixels or less. There's af amous dept. of defense challenge that involves making the shapes in a box full of tools. The difference between finding a hammer and a wrench instead of a giant hammerwrenchthing is extremely small.
My hope is that one of those techniques would prove workable...

I always thought the road towards solving the Go problem would be in the graphics analysis space. People who play go well often talk about seeing shapes and patterns, much more so than someone who, for instance, has mastered Chess. It would not surprise me at all if you took a Go board, and thought of it as a B&W image and performed standard AI-like graphics analysis on it (edge-detection, boundary analysis, etc) you'd find someting interesting.
Anyone know if this has ever been tried? I'd love to but I just don't know quite enough about either go or graphics...

I KNOW that I saw a page somehwere describing how to do something almost identical in Apache for PHPLIB (the package the Kristian excellently maintains, btw). Alas, I cannot find the URL now, but if someone could post it, that would be great.
I think it used mod_rewrite, but I could be mistaken.

As a matter of fact, Catalyst Recruiting doesn't believe anything about Programming or HTML. Or system is 100% dynamic, chosen entirely by our users. Thus, if you see a skill like "HTML Programming" in the list of choices, that's because other users have put it on their resume.
We don't make any editorial decisions about these sorts of things whatsoever.

Whoa. I've never had a post so heavily moderated before. Sorry folks for pasting the text. I just got high speed net, and when I was on dialup I used to find I was unable to get the text of most links, since the/. effect would take the site down. BUT, last thing I want is to antagonize anybody, so I'll refrain.
And I just noticed the +1 bonus, sorry about the abuse, not my intention.
Cheers,

I hate to go off-topic, but since the seems to be directed at me, I thought I'd weigh in with a $.02 for my company.
Catalyst Recruiting is not a recruiting agency, we are a database company. We maintain a database of candidates for jobs, and provide employers with advanced search tools to find the candidates that best meet their needs. Thus, we do NOT promote anybody to anybody else, rather we provide an information service.

A lot of closed-source companies in there fighting for Linux rights. Good to see...
