  1. Re:Hello World (Newer Version) on Any "Pretty" Code Out There? · · Score: 1

    You're missing some really important keywords like 'implements', 'for', 'if', 'else', 'final', 'abstract', 'interface', 'import', 'package'. To bad, they could make your example better!

  2. Re:Why Gosling? on James Gosling Appointed to the Order of Canada · · Score: 1

    I was just looking through the Java source and it says "// Author: Joyce Hatto" Which should definitely be:

    /**
    * @Author Joyce Hatto
    */

  3. Re:Interesting on Google Denies Data In Brazil Orkut Case · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I think Google isn't protecting any rights, but just being legally right. From TFA: "Google maintains that it is open to requests for information from foreign governments as long as the requests comply with U.S. laws and that they are issued within the country where the information is stored.'" So, no kudos from me!!

  4. Re:I thought something like this was up! on Google Researchers Create TV Audio Analysis System · · Score: 1

    when I last checked with google the results seemed to somehow match te given query..........

  5. great news! on Sun Puts its Weight Behind Ubuntu Linux · · Score: 1

    I've been using Ubuntu for serverside Java development for over a year now and (although there are some quircks) it has been fine! I think Sun putting some effort in it, and the Ubuntu team putting some effort in Java support could only make it better! Can't wait to see what the outcome is!

  6. Re:Misleading Headline on Sun to Release Java Source Code · · Score: 1
    In the eweek article Schwarts is actually quoted stating the license will be OSI compliant:
    If Sun goes down the path of open-source licensing Java, it would use an OSI (Open Source Initiative)-approved license, he added.
    c'mon, that doesn't sound all to bad now does it?
  7. Long term investments? on World's Most Expensive Mp3 Player · · Score: 1

    Actually adding gold and diamonds might be the only way to make sure this mp3 player won't loose its' value within weeks like others tend to do!

  8. nothing new.... on Music Based on Fibonacci Sequence and Stock Market · · Score: 3, Informative

    Throughout the ages many composers (J.S. Bach/Schubert/Bartok), have used the fibonacci numbers in their works: http://www.mcs.surrey.ac.uk/Personal/R.Knott/Fibon acci/fibInArt.html#music Many contemporary composers like Ligeti and Chowning use mathmatical formulas like the fibonacci number as well. So, how is this news... most students in music are supposed to have remembered this from their classes ;)

  9. number needed to form a new family of species...? on New "Hairy Lobster" Crustacean Discovered and Classified · · Score: 1

    Isn't there some sort of minimal number of finds before a new family and genus can be determined?

  10. Re:ndiswrapper on State of WLAN Support on Linux? · · Score: 1

    Yes, ndiswapper.... I've been using ndiswrapper on my ubuntu laptop for over a year, and it works.... partially. If what you want is limited to networking only, cause 'features' like security WPA report to be not-implemented for my hardware. Also, every kernel update I'm force to manually removed the ACX module from the kernel, somehow it conflicts with my ACX100 and breaks my networking. For most unexperienced users I think wireless support in linux is a huge problem!

  11. Re:fix java or give it up to the community on Oracle and Sun Team Up to Provide .NET Alternative · · Score: 1

    There are a lot of nice solutions to the 'classpath' issues you describe. For instance take a look at maven2 with its transitive dependency management. You just tell maven 'hey, my project uses hibernate 3.1'. It will download the requested jars, and add them to the classpath. How much easier should it be?
