  1. O'Reilly has been offering this for years on O'Reilly Opens Online Tech School · · Score: 2, Informative

    This "school" has been around for at least two or three years. Same partnership between O'Reilly and the University of Illinois, same courses, same cost, same certificates.

    They just rebranded it "O'Reilly School of Technology."

  2. Re:Damn them. on UPN Officially Cancels 'Star Trek: Enterprise' · · Score: 1

    > Where are the fucking smart tv producers and network directors, they all quit?

    They're working on Battlestar Galactica.

    Seriously.

    It's an odd, odd world when Trek gets prematurely canceled and Galactica is the best sci-fi on TV in many a year.

    Now if they'd just bring back Buck Rogers and Erin Gray in that electric blue catsuit ...

  3. Re:Ruby still needs ISP support on Rolling With Ruby On Rails · · Score: 3, Informative

    True and true.

    There's one host that looks promising: http://www.textdrive.com/ -- It's run by Dean Allen (wrote TextPattern), David Heinemeier Hansson (wrote Rails), Matt Mullenweg (wrote WordPress), among others.

    Not astroturfing -- I co-lo elsewhere, and almost wish I was willing to do the virtual host thing again to try it out.

  4. It's not a spelling mistake, it's a trademark on Google Tidbits · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I had heard awhile back that "Google" is so named because you cannot solely trademark(TM) numbers or words expressing numbers.

    Is this not the case?
