  1. Re:Or faking their age on Youths No Longer Predominant on MySpace · · Score: 1

    Yeah, but they were consumers. Of course teens ultimately decide what they consume and are a market force, but that is self evident, isn't it? Marketeers sell them the idea that they are being new and different because that's what they will buy. The OP seemed to be claiming that the coporations 'use' their creativity; but the fact is they just want their money.

    It would also dilute the damages that the other company is seeking, since damages should be finite.

    You must be a teen.
    The people that originated rap were not teenages. It takes becoming an adult to realize that it is actually very difficult to come up with or do something that is new or original.

  4. Extent of Government Computers Infected By Bots U on Extent of Government Computers Infected By Bots Uncertain · · Score: 1

    Who gives a shit about what you know? If they know the bot is in the network they will remove it. Name one company that knows how many bots are in their network.

  5. Re:It's the bureaucracy that's the biggest problem on Extent of Government Computers Infected By Bots Uncertain · · Score: 1

    The biggest problem is that people mention 'goverment computers' with this huge blanket statement. Goverment agencies are not connected to each other (except by the internet) and they are all run differently, with different policies and safeguards. Different sites might not even be connected in the same organization. There may be vulnerabilities in certain areas but they aren't necessarily systemic.

    You nailed it on the head. If you replaced gaming with 'hanging out at the 7-11' in the story you would pretty much have the same result.

    True, I was just trying really hard to find something nice to say about this 'invention'.

  8. Easy to write a negative book on Why Software Sucks · · Score: 1

    Any ass monkey can right a book of criticisms... I would like to see his attempt at a software development methodology that is better.

    It is nice in cases where you are giving the disk away (like in a magazine)... takes up much less landfill space too. I wouldn't be holding my breath waiting for them to hit the consumer market though.

    What other country welcomes more immigrants than the US? Why don't you try to become a citizen of Mexico, or Australia.

    Just like spam, you can take a technical approach, and that can go a far way to defeating it, but as long as there are dudes out there with barbed wire bicep tattoos, backwards hats, throwing up fake gang signs in their bedroom in front of a Sublime poster willing to be duped by the simplest of scams, there's not much we can do.

    Dude, no way i can be duped!!!

    There are mountain ranges where you could do this.

  13. Re:Since when did people get so uppity. . ? on Is String Theory Really a Scientific Theory? · · Score: 1

    This may be true but it is a huge chunk of the physics department. I personally knew a bunch of guys working on things like new detector designs and software to process the data. Theorists would of had tons of data to sift through. It was a huge project, and it isn't like the budget was shifted to some other physics programs.

  14. Re:Since when did people get so uppity. . ? on Is String Theory Really a Scientific Theory? · · Score: 1

    People are pissed because since the SSC was canned getting funding for a physics department is very difficult, and 'silly strings' soak up a large amount of funding and mindshare.

    I agree. We should stop all science not having a direct impact on cancer until cancer is cured.

    It seems like Microsoft is going to take all the legal lumps for transmitting. Apple will just come out with some copy cat and revive their ipod sales.

    I agree. I try to keep a 90:10 ratio at work, 90% production and 10% selfish. That 10% seems to make it all worth it. I have kids and have been at this for 10+ years and don't have time or the desire to code at home.

    It annoys developers too because they are wasting mindshare on some stupid component when they could be improving their skills in whatever language they are working in.

    also it doesn't take a bunch of imagination to join the two sides of the ribbon into a tube. Then you could do something useful with the thing, like pipe air up to a space station. Did you get your phd in the mail?

    Recharging the balloons is a stupid idea. Just send up a new cluster and have some mechanism to release the old ones.
    Also the best way to send up a robot is to use microwave transmission and a lightweight antenna, batteries and solar cells are just too heavy.
