  1. Phishing Sites on Netcraft: 5,600 Phishing Sites Since December · · Score: 4, Funny

    I've visited Phishing sites before, but I just don't get it. You'd have to be stoned or something to appreciate their music.

  2. Re:Wish I had it here on Tempe, AZ To Provide Wireless Broadband · · Score: 1

    I used to do technical/billing support for Comcast HSI and I couldn't believe what their customers had to pay.

    I pay $25 per month. I live in Canada, though, so maybe it's an irrelevant comparison.

  3. Re:I Don't See This as Something to Celebrate on Tempe, AZ To Provide Wireless Broadband · · Score: 2, Funny

    I agree. The only purpose of government is to ensure a decent butter-churn in every home.

  4. Re:This is not a troll, but a query... on Practical Common Lisp · · Score: 1

    Ruby is the greatest OO language I know.

    If it had online documentation just half as decent as Java, I might actually use it.

  5. Non-procedural programming on Practical Common Lisp · · Score: 1

    I think my favorite university course was a course focusing on "non-procedural programming." The course was half-Lisp and half-Prolog. Sure, I haven't ever actually used anything I learned in that course. But it was neat. Everytime I write code that involves parsing a text file, I always complain "I wish I were allowed to do this in Lisp." Webprogramming in Lisp would be, um, interesting. . . I've never considered that possibility before. I might buy the book just for help setting that up.

  6. Film Studies on Hardware or Software Major? · · Score: 1

    Make sure you get lots of credits in film studies. I say this as someone who might want to compete with you for jobs in the future.

  7. 64 bit processor more secure? on Microsoft's New Mantra - It Just Works · · Score: 1

    64-bit computers will be much faster. They should also be more secure.

    Why would a computer with a 64 bit processor be more secure, exactly? I don't get it.

  8. Kevin Smith on Flying Cars Ready To Take Off · · Score: 1
  9. Damnit on Utah Governor Signs Net-Porn Bill · · Score: 1

    Damnit! All the best porn sites are Utah based!
