So let me get this straight... Sun's COO is saying that the most important thing in software is beer? Well, good to see that Sun finally has its priorities straight.
Lutz was in command of the alternative to those bright, shiny websites: an expensive, aging global distribution system (GDS) called Galileo.
Actually, all of those bright, shiny websites (Expedia, Travelocity, and Orbitz) rely on a GDS (Sabre, Amadeus, Worldspan or Galileo) to provide their content.
Re-read the post. He did go someplace else, and spent $25,000 on a drug that would save his life. The only reason he can't have the drug (and, I presume, can not have a refund either) is because the patent holder is blocking him from collecting it. I don't think the patent holder has an obligation to help the man - but I do think that he/she/they have an obligation not to deliberately conspire to murder him. If they just stepped aside, he'd live. If they take action, he dies. Maybe not murder, but at least manslaughter.
Of course, I'm assuming that everything he posted is factually accurate and there are no other facts to consider - if this were a trial, I'm sure there would be, but based on the evidence presented so far, juror #6 is leaning toward the death penalty.
Fortunately, according to
Charles Fitzgerald, Microsoft is about to put the rocket scientists who do AJAX programming out of work when they release their new AJAX development platform, so there will be plenty looking for Postfix admin jobs.
Not only that, but you'll probably need to pay for an upgrade to your OS, then upgrade the browser, then install a special "AJAX ActiveX control" just to view the pages. And... somehow... there will be thousands of pages that can only be viewed with MSAJAX...
I've never gotten news coverage for adding "//" before an 'if(condition)' statment.
Well, it's obvious that you "hackers" don't know what you're talking about. I tried using this so-called "hacker technique" to hack into a password protected website, but changing "iexplore.exe" to "//iexplore.exe" did nothing. I guess Microsoft has found a way to defeat this hacker exploit.

I agree. When people stop respecting the intellectual property rights of recording companies, morals have already gone out the window.

No, no, no - they've already banned TCP/IP. In China, their internet is entirely HTML-based.
I gotta tell you - if the patent holder (Chiron?) was indicted for attempted murder, and I was on the jury, I'd vote him guilty.
