  1. The idea is familiar (in Finland) on Your House Is About To Be Photographed · · Score: 1

    The company Igglo did something similar for Finland.

  2. Do you believe in this? on Finding New Code · · Score: 1

    I do not. Most of the code is just not of that quality, uses wrong dependencies.... Is not generic enough, is not written in the language I like, etc, etc. Its one thing to have some quick sort or eigenvalue algorithm written right ONCE. It is quite different with the 99% or everything else.

  3. They reinvented my idea of year 2001? on Microsoft's "Immortal Computing" Project · · Score: 1
  4. Some advices on Advice For Programmers Right Out of School · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Whatever you do, try to undestand the root of the problem, the larger picture, understand why certain thing need to be written at all. What is the place of your component in the whole. What the whole do.

    Its very easy for a programmer to bias toward "cool" things. With some experience thinking on the problem you solve you will start to get the pleasure of doing things in harmony with the objectives of the whole system.

    Do not try to learn too much: programming is such a field that one need to learn ones own way. Try to be open to new things, intuition will grow with years of experience.

    Programming is highly intellectual work and is often rooted in deep insights to larger extent than on logical reasoning.

    In other words, try gather your own wisdom. Perhaps, its greater asset for programmers than remembering numerous patterns and idioms.

  5. Re:Two subnets in Windows Home on the same interfa on Vista's 'Next Gen' TCP/IP Stack · · Score: 1

    The problem is how to setup it thru control panel. One network uses DHCP, another one static IP...

  6. Two subnets in Windows Home on the same interface? on Vista's 'Next Gen' TCP/IP Stack · · Score: 1

    Interesting. I have tried to setup two subnets on the same physical interface (WLAN) in Windows XP Home... (wanted to have localnetwork + internet): no way - only one network at a time! A friend of mine (network professional) told me that its possible but very hard to do. Is this going to be solved in Windows Vista? So, what is this talk really about? Why Windows users even need to know about subnets let alone shaping traffic?

  7. Where it destines... on Linux Kernel 2.6.14 Released · · Score: 1

    I just wonder where adding new features will lead Linux (or any other actively developed OS). Aren't there any conceptually simpler ways on the horison to help support all that hardware? Are there any new OS architecture ideas
    not just extensive growth? Are there any good ideas for the silicon side as well? I do not believe CPUs need to be
    that complicated...

    It's great Linux stays on top of the hardware complexity race, though. As I said, I just wonder...

  8. Re:Super patent on Amazon Patents User Viewing Histories · · Score: 1

    Another good idea is to create independent worldwide patent-like system which will be able to store knowledge with datestamps and use semantic web for retrieval. All common (non)sense will be already there, providing prior art.

  9. Super patent on Amazon Patents User Viewing Histories · · Score: 1

    It's time to file a superpatent which contains a method
    to generate any patent with given stupidity level!

    (oops. Delete this please or I'll loose millions!)

  10. ISP point of view on Dealing with Intruders? · · Score: 1

    We receive a lot of intrusion reports but usually they are due to some worm activity from our users. We notify (if possible) a user but almost always do nothing else.
    However, usually it works.

    Nowadays people are accustomed to letters claiming they have a virus so probably some of them do not read
    such letters any more.

    We do not close outgoing port 25 either.
