Encryption can not be solution to this, because, (I understand) the discussion is about employees themselves copying data 'they have legitimate access to'.
Securing data against piracy or stealing data by authorized users is much more difficult than securing against unauthorized users.
Ajax is around for quite some time and has been reported as one of 15 important tech concepts that might rule 2006. Google has demostrated how to use Ajax and so on.
I sincerely want to understand if there are any pitfalls. Is Ajax win-win for all of us? are there any security or any other concerns? What could be an argument against Ajax?
One day in Contract Law class, Professor Jepson asked one of his better students, "Now if you were to give someone an orange, how would you go about it?"
The student replied, "Here's an orange."
The professor was livid. "No! No! Think like a lawyer!"
The student then recited, "Okay, I'd tell him, 'I hereby give and convey to you all and singular, my estate and interests, rights, claim, title, calim and advantages of and in, said orange, together with all its rind, juice, pulp, and seeds, and all rights and advantages with full power to bite, cut, freeze and otherwise eat, the same, or give the same away with and without the pulp, juice, rind and seeds, anything herein before or hereinafter or in any deed, or deeds, instruments of whatever nature or kind whatsoever to the contrary in anywise notwithstanding..."
My experience says that Indians speak/write english better than citizens of many english speaking countries. This is one of biggest advantage they have over China. 'Vast pool of english educated people'.
Publishers like Wrox, O'Reilly etc had already established offices in India for editing and proofreading.
That is very insightful comment. Good you brought this up.
It is really interesting to follow this thread here, since, I have also faced this dilemma as Software Architect. Most of the times, I prefer to put the facts on table and allow the whole team participate in decision making process. The members are allowed to wear different hats (Mkting, Finance, Project, Process etc).
There is Racism in Canada, way higher than that of US. One of the best excuse they have against immigrants is "You don't have Canadian experience".
One of my coworker was always facing discrimination because of his skin color. All his talent, knowledge, experience was overlooked in front of a white chic, who was miserably dependent on him for performing her duties.
Having stayed there, I have seen numerous examples. Canada is hell for Immigrants.
Your concerns about clean water are valid, but space program has its own importance and place, that can not be stopped because of some domestic problems in some corners of the country.
In fact, space program helps to solve these problems in many ways.
1> It gurantees news channels that can bring awareness to masses.
2> Weather satellites play important role for forecasting.
3> Creates a huge entertainment industry (marketing, advertisers, graphics designers, cable manufacturers, operators, actors, musicians....) that can afford spending some resources to tackle poverty issues.
4> Opportunity to market technology to third world.
IANA Mac user, but, isn't there Word (or Microsoft Office) for Mac? What is difference between Word on Windows and Mac that prevents those notorious macro virus?
Highly paid lawyers were sitting around a desk grilling my manager about what this software would be used for.
Not necessary. Guess, this is a far fetched possibility/conclusion.
We have used (and I believe, tens of thousands of others as well) FOSS products and happily using them without any fuss (of lawyers). I know army of perl, php, jsp, ruby developers who start installing Linux on friends computers without a trace of doubt, forget about the worries of lawyers.
This is FUD, and definitely speaks of special cases. Some big companies might voice their concern in this manner, but who cares. FOSS was never dependent on them.

Does anybody know this, and comparison between risk of tumour vs risk of accident (using mobile while driving)?
You don't know that? :-O..Oh My Gawd..
Sure. Use google earth to see her right away:)
Yeah, me too!!!
Trouble is, 1.7 is float, and number of penis I have is an Integer.
*ducks*..(hey no need to duck today.. )
Man, you know an OS that is 6000 years old!!
Makes me feel, I am living in era of human whose skull was found!!! ;)
What exactly this means?
Depends upon VC's vision about technology whether it is in phase A or phase C of the famous Hype Cycle

I disagree. Bosses are clueless that they are assholes and need to be told. Try that first..:)

TIA for your answers.
An old joke for your reference..

Now get your head out.

the Carleton University web site must be impressive :)

Yeah, and you could view all the p0rn for free.
P.S. By any chance, do they need moderators? I volunteer... I volunteer...

Definitely not. Yesterday they have read this on slashdot and today they have acted.
I guess, the author wants us to see a huge potential of Ajax, that will be realized in 2006.
Yeah, it took additional 50 ms to close the tab.
Overall, good summary!
On a serious note, China and India have more than 2.4 billion people. Spreading Linux/FOSS there is always welcome.
Not necessary. Guess, this is a far fetched possibility/conclusion.
