Interesting, W3C's HTML validator chokes all over the slashdot.org site but it seems to render just fine in my browser, 186 errors to be exact. (Hence my post)
Don't be so speechless, especially when it's so easy to write non-standard HTML/CSS.
I used to think so, until I looked into the kinds of foo you can work with CSS. There are about Two Million sites that have to do with CSS layout. There's gotta be some variety in there somewhere, don't you think?
With a couple of projects coming up that are going to require complete W3C CSS and XHTML validation (with 1 client requiring just a pure CSS layout)
Now I'm all for using standards, I do my best whenever I can. But, what kind of foolish project woudld REQUIRE standards compliance? HTML and CSS are something that can be written by any school kid, and you and I both know that your average school kid doesn't know the ins and outs of the CSS and XHTML standards, and probably never will.
I understand what kinds of problems this can create, but requiring compliance with an iron fist is like a big red sign saying "Don't use the app, we're too anal"
Can the author name the specific projects which are doing this?
Registrars however may take away your domains for spamming. Possibly backlisting your CC#, getting a new credit card number if you want to keep using that registrar IS a pain in the ass.
This is the same type of law that is currently in place (in many states) for things such as body armor and lock picks. It is perfectly legal to have these things, but if you use them in a crime the penalty is much worse.
Probably drive by wire. We won't become a hydrogen economy for a long time yet. With the recent news about how cheap wind power has become perhaps using the energy from wind power to power electrolysis the hydrogen economy may flourish...
Hipocracy is nothing new when it comes to growing roots.
Hell look at Metallica, they wouldn't be where they're at now if it weren't for distribution of copied tapes (shudder). Then they go and sue the late Napster for getting their music out there even more.
$20 for a metallica cock ring... You know you're rich when you buy a car and it comes with a mexican house boy. - Quoth Lars from a certain flash movie.
Oh yeah, pick up a copy of WinXP Corporate, it is possible to find legal copies on the internet. You don't have to register with XP Corp.
Hardly, I'd like to point out that SQL Server is available at the low cost of $14,000/cpu. SQL Server on an 8-way box ($112,000) can buy a WHOLE LOT of MS Offices. That's just one product, Win2k AS and the such run several thousands.
You obviously don't work for a MS shop:) Not that doing so would be a good thing...

What were they thinking? Now snipers can steal images right off a photographer before they even know it.

Do you not work in an enterprise? We have two 8-way servers and several 2-way. Our company only has ~500 employees.
