a quick google for the researcher the article focuses on shows that he doesn't publish. his main credits are online opinion pieces, and the closes thing to a publication i found (the second page of the google) is a.doc file on his labratory's webspace
if anyone can find anything peer-reviewed by this guy, i'd be keen to see it
Interesting - you suggest working for someone, i would suggest consulting as a project lead. There are lots of small(er/ish) companies out there that want stuff developed, but don't have the exprtise to deal with a development contractor.
What these companies want is someone who knows the subject domain, knows the industry, and can be the company's representative when dealing with developers.
Bad developers give bad adivce to clients who don't know good and bad. Someone who can say "I've done dev for a decade. I know the tech, I know accessibility, I know IA, I know UI, and I know about business needs." can contract as the small un-savvy company's goto person to developers.
in order to calculate rad/sec from kph, wouldn't the diameter of the thing have to be constant? the article gave a rough figure, but my guess is that it's not constant
amen. the article is bunch of bollocks. he writes (summarizing) "php is suxorz because it's possible to use it poorly).
boo hoo. don't teach people bad techniques, and all the issues he mentions with php disapear. and apache? what, all he said is "i don't like it", but didn't say why.
ummm.... You answered your own question, didn't you? The like to Google's "work arounds" seems to be the answer. These aren't work arounds, they're specific steps for authorizing your site with the AV software. Just make your own document similar to google's and direct customers to it.
Yes, but it's not $225 its 25,000 Yen. I doubt the US/Continent/UK price is going to be $225, it'll be $199.99 or $249.99. $224.99 is a really odd price.
you'd be surprised. when i lived in japan, i found that most everything cost about the yen equivalent to what i'd expect to pay in USD. A $1000 laptop was like 11,000 en.
ha! that's a written policy where i work, and since management *refuses* to understand how it works, nobody else does it.
they all send attachments willy nilly, and *i* get in trouble for reminding people we have a no-attachments-use-links policy
:) i used to teach english to native japanese speakers, and that's really not any different from trying to explain bayseian spam filters to my non-technical boss.
pictures help, metaphores help, madlibs help
by madlibs, i mean things like "think of [concept] as like a [cute noun (bunnies, kittens, etc.)]"... draw funny pictures, and connect them up with arrows... you can't over simplify enough, and the more fun you make it, the easier time the audience will have following you
remember that 9 times out of 10 you aren't explaining it to these people because they need to understand, you're explaining it so they have confidence that you know what you're doing and that the outcome will reflect well on themselves
It'd be pretty annoying if you came back from a run/heavy night's drinking (delete as suits you) and accidentally drank the backup of all your MP3s and pr0n to rehydrate you...
or, when the new guy has too much to drink at the office party, mistakes the file server for a urinal, lifts the cover...
i'm writing it in ruby... it's kind of my 'let's learn ruby!' project... i haven't decided how to handle all the peek/poke/call stuff yet, since obviously the memory addresses are completely irrelevant... one option would be to give the more common peek/poke things named procedure statements, or i could just hardcode all the old apple ][ memory addresses to their functionality:)
I can understand banning VOIP. Not that everybody's going to like it, but it's at least rational. They're in the business of providing telephone service, after all.
maybe i don't understand the issue, but i see it like this: if you're using their phone, you're presumably paying them for IP services on that device, right? so even though voip is a "conflict" for them, you're still paying through the teeth for high-bandwidth IP functionality on the phone, right? so they'd still make money
my favorite feature of the Apple ][ was the built-in BASIC on the rom, and man, you could do *so* much stuff with that basic...
i've actually been getting back into it, and i'm writing a BASIC interpreter in my new language of choice, and i've been picking up old applesoft BASIC manuals on ebay... really fun
once you've got them looking pretty, you should let users play with them via some fun BASIC program you've written
Passive: The boy *is riding* his bike to the store.
Active: The boy *rides* his bike to the store.
the first example is active voice in the present continues tense; the second example is active voice is the simple present tense
passive would be "the bike was ridden by the boy to the store"
in passive voice, the object (the noun acted upon by the verb & subject) takes the first position in the sentence, making the subject unnecessary (eg the bike was ridden to the store)
i've got a buddy, i do the css on his contracts (because he won't admit he doesn't know such a simple language), and he helps me with the class definitions for my own projects, because he's got *heaps* more experience than i in that department
I've never understood the attraction of Vim, maybe someone could explain.
okay, i haven't read the other comments to you yet, but for me it's like this: vim is *not* my editor of choice for most things, but when i'm ssh'd into my webservers, it's the easiest, simplest way to make minor tweaks... vi.htaccess, type type type,:w:q, done and done
it's simple and straightforward, which is all i need for tweaking.conf files and similar tasks
credit where credit is due: Microsoft BASIC (1977?) was awesome. Apple licensed it, and all the Apple ][s came with AppleSoft BASIC, which was MS BASIC with a new name tacked on. And that BASIC rocked.
and in palentology, the names are mostly SFW... in botany, that's clear out the window... as an only borderline NSFW example, i'd point you to genus mammillaria

The *real* quesiton is: will they come with a special version of T9 text entry for editting httpd.conf?
nah, write a sub that can returns text for an int... once you're up in four digit land, doing it programatically is way better than a static array
That's the whole article right there.

damn, technoextreme for the win; nicely done. two gold stars for your nerd card.

she's is a contraction - she is: eg she's going to the store for some milk
