    Did you actually just phrase that to insinuate that the evil constitution is attacking the innocent patents system?

    Jimmy Carter got Hamas to agree to peace talks and to accept Israel as a state.

    amazing what can really happen when people just "do" what needs to be done.

    I really don't give a crap how it gets done if it gets done right, and I don't suppose they should either.

    Tools are meant to be used when they help, not just because they're there.

  11. Doubtful on ICANN Takes a Step Toward Ending Domain Tasting · · Score: 0

    There was news recently that the George W. Bush Library foundation (whatever its real name is, I'm unsure of) was having a great deal of difficulty with domain name squatters who had stolen every possible website they would want to put his library's web page on.

    and the worst part: they're all democrats and refuse to sell, and will likely populate those web pages with actual content.

    This move is likely an attempt to give them the boot so that the government can steal those websites.

    Someone should perhaps forward the word on.

    If that backfires it could force all of those squatters to actually put web pages up there for all to see.

  14. Re:No Moral crisis here. on Kraken Infiltration Revives "Friendly Worm" Debate · · Score: 1

    Ever seen "I am Legend"?

    using virus-like code to fix virus-like code is scary as hell at best.

    Seriously there should be a heck of a lot of discussion and testing BEFORE letting something like this out in the wild. There's enough zombie computers out there that introducing something like this could spark a "genetic programming" style artificial intelligence, constantly seeking out exploitable computers and eating them up. Given that most of the computers out there are unsecure, and some of those carry your personal information in some database, I would say that this is a very bad idea.

    Nevertheless, do try it out on a separate network. I am curious.

  16. Yes. on Metallica May Follow In Footsteps of Radiohead, NIN · · Score: 4, Insightful

    If they learn to adapt to the world, then they deserve to survive. it takes a lot to admit that you were wrong and I'm not going to downplay that.

  17. Re:C/C++ is dying! on Are C and C++ Losing Ground? · · Score: 1

    I find it hard to believe that C is more popular than C++, unless you're counting most usage of C++ (which doesn't take advantage of what it offers over C) as usage of C and not C++.

    which is understandable, but it's a bit like not counting a ferrari as a convertible unless you've let the top down in the past week or so.

    Beat you to the punch, BadAnalogyGuy.

    As long as the information is still there it's not censorship.
