No notice is okay if the creditors are coming in to repossess the furniture...
Seriously: Employers walk you out to minimize sabotage. In my book it's okay because too many idiots have given them justification. The people griping about how unfair it is that you are supposed to give notice but the employer can treat you like dirt just are full of crap.
If you DON'T WANT TO BURN BRIDGES, give notice... If you don't care, don't give notice but remember that you never know when your old boss may be your boss again at a different company. (Looks at temporary project managers)
You TOTALLY MISSED garyisabusyguy's point. You are making the 'former employer' the bad guy instead of the true cause, the bad law.
Get rid of the law and people usually do the right thing (try to save those precious artifacts)... As it is now, the law is pretty much guaranteeing their destruction.

In the 60's (with SLIDE RULES) NASA built the Apollo program and put men on the moon. Today we can't lift our own astronauts into space and NASA's 'move ahead' plan is to play with Legos. Pathetic
What WILL cause all of our digital data to finally be lost is media degradation. Every piece of data ever created will eventually be lost because the media it's on finally fails and someone forgot to copy it before hand. (That or the sun engulfs the Earth before we finally figure out that we have to get off this planet)
His position is that the data format is what will prevent data recovery - I postulate that as long as there are bored nerds that perceive a challenge, the old can and will be reverse engineered.

Doesn't that make them trip and fall when the weight in their hands gets too much?
It probably won't get as far as a judgement, Apple will probably pay him something to make him go away. WELCOME TO THE WORLD OF TORT.
Anyone can start a Wordpress site, he's selling the brand and the following. I have several blogs and they are alot of work.

They seem to have forgotten: "Developers developers developers... developers developers developers... developers developers developers..."
"It's effectively impossible to launch a sophisticated Web project without making extensive use of JavaScript and AJAX dynamic loading."
Yeah, that's why my (extensive) web infrastructure has ZERO javascript in it....

The world is a horrible place because of the US blah blah...

(Ignore my "don't" in the above sentence. It made sense in my head but not so much in print.)
Put copies online and see how fast some nerds don't decrypt it....

Same way the TRS-80 fans do.... Take an old drive with an adapter and read it off once and transfer it to new media.
Ira Goldlang's site (trs-80.com) has TONS of old software done that way.
Get rid of the 4 regulars because they are driving everyone else off.
