  1. Doing work or at work on How Many Hours Do You Work in a Week? · · Score: 1

    Is the question how many hours you spend at work, or how many hours you work at work?

  2. Look at YAPC for inspiration on ApacheCon On The Cheap? · · Score: 2

    Yet Another Society(YAS) has put together the Yet Another Perl Conference for a couple of years now, which is low cost perl conference. It might be worth looking at what they have done with Perl and see if it could be applied to Apache.

    A Gauntlet coin-op arcade machine to be precise.

  5. Re:I wish... on Using Fractals To Classify Music · · Score: 2

  6. Re:The FBI are just looking out for us right? on Court to FBI - Full Public Review Of Carnivore · · Score: 2

    Are they though? The important question here is how many of your rights are you willing to give up for greater security? Where is the line for you? How much of what you do/say/write are you willing to let fall into the government's hands?

    And one final question, just how effective is all this snooping? Great, you can catch the stupid terrorists but are they really the ones that we need to be worrying about?

  7. Develop the unit yourself on Linux & Education - How To Get It For Your School · · Score: 1

    That's right. Offer to put together a unit or a class or whatever on the topic you want to get more attention. Then offer to present it to the class yourself. It may not immediately get the topic into the standard curriculum but it will defintely get it to your class and teacher.

    And who knows, offering to teach a class or two may win you some points. Be sure to work with your teach on the plan though, you are going to need some help in designing an effective plan.

  8. Re:DB Alex Brown on Interview: Larry Augustin Finally Answers · · Score: 1

    I believe that proceeds from the sale of stock is consider a capital gain which, I believe, is taxed seperately from the rest of your income. The tax rate for sales of stock held for a short amount of time do indeed approach 40%.
