His birthday, if you read the article, but the summary refers back to something that's not been stated. Did anyone even read this submission before posting it?
The summary was so infuriating that I actually clicked through and found an interesting article.
Much more of this meaningless bullshit in my RSS reader though and I'll dump Slashdot out and go back to not visiting the website for years at a time.
So maybe we could have enjoyed an accurate submission saying that Berkeley have reported an advance over the already-reported finding, confirming an already-reported finding:

Darknets are a concern. What is the link with the Deep Web? The only connection seems to be that they're both unindexed by search engines.
I thought the article might get to the point by the last page, but it was still talking about child protection and terrorism (in company databases???)
I had wondered whether this confusion was down to an incautious academic, but the doesn't seem to suggest it: http://ai.arizona.edu/research/terror/
"Having at last gotten Linux to run satisfactorily on my own PCs" - so you struggled and you want to foist it on others?
Leave them using Windows. Hell, be nice and buy them Windows 7!
Either that or get them a pretty looking distro (Ubuntu) and some unsupported hardware and have them build a driver from source, or better still recompile a kernel, then offer 'stick with this or go back to Windows'.
Tl:dr: Ubuntu... for two weeks until they get pissed off and hate you for it
You don't need to get your friends to join Google Mail to send them messages from Google Mail.
If you'd actually read and considered the OP, instead of jumping into the discussion with sarcastic comments, you might have understood this.
Earlier the article in the (UK) Daily Telegraph had a headline about his having let of a firework.
This contrasted with CNN quoting some US senator saying it was a 'quite sophisticated explosive device'.
The more I hear 'pop and fizz' the more credit I give The Telegraph for being on the money... except that they seem to have retracted it now (?)
There's Frank McCabe's talk at SRI.
Of course SRI are just obscure academics, right? What have they ever supported that became mainstream (apart from the Internet, the mouse etc.)?
I made the article. I'm nothing to do with the language authors, but had come across their language before and thought that it should be properly documented for the non-academic crowd in light of the coming argument over the name.
Android phones? Johnny-come-latelies. The Nokia N95 was massively superior in many regards at European iPhone launch (even compared to its later 3G re-launch), but Europe doesn't really consider technical capabilities in what's 'cool'. Nor price (the N95 deals were also much better).
Thanks for the posting guide. May I offer some advice in return? In order to understand a post please consider what it's replying to. You said:
It's the equivalent of saying that Germans have no right to comment on the actions of Israel because they once tried to exterminate the Jews
I explained why it wasn't the equivalent at all.
If you want a sensible decision of whether the Americans must still be held responsible for restoring the Shah, and for arming the Iraqis in the Iran-Iraq War, DON'T GODWIN!
What was the party called? The Jewish United Western Homosexual Pigdogs Alliance? [...] That's simple bigotry on your part.
Hmmm, yes, this was certainly coherent.
I don't remember the United States having been through a regime change comparable with losing a war, partition and reunification. Could you let me know when that happened?
Except that the populace have voted for a second candidate against the one supported by the ulama before.
I hardly think Americans are in a place to criticise in any case, having openly supported the Shah's ousting their first ever democratically elected ruler.
The government is democratically elected. It is not a free democracy however because all candidates have to be approved by the ulama. The ulama are not democratically elected, and also oversee adopted or doubled-up functions normally attributed to government. Dude.
I don't like the term 'Anti-American' or 'Anti-Iranian'; I like most American people I've met and most Iranian people I've met.
I don't like either of their flawed democracies and I don't like the undue influence of either of their fundamentalist religious movements.
Slashdot Mirror
His birthday, apparently. Wouldn't know from the summary. Did anyone proof read this submission before posting?

When did being able to distinguish these basic technologies slip away as the kind of basic criterion necessary to get a story posted on /.?

I'm ready to take a 'redundant' to support this. OP, learn REST. This is a pretty good API. Sorry you haven't adjusted to the Web way of thinking.

Not the first time it's been on Slashdot. Typical Sunday 'editing'.

People from Ghana are Ghanaian though
No, I still want to see 'hello, world'. Your link doesn't have it right either.
I don't know where this 'hello world' everyone is talking about is, but it sounds awfully friendly.

It's this thread again. Did something change since last time this was discussed?

Ah, sorry, that's what a 'firecracker' is, right?
