  1. Re:Transcript of podcast: on Podcasting Censored by Government · · Score: 1

    Hmmm so the reason for all these tabloid article descriptions isnt only ad imprints, its to make ridicule of those who forgets to RTFA?

  2. Re:It's called ECHELON boys and girls on NSA Data Mining Much Larger Than Reported · · Score: 1

    Echellon is only about winning contracts for american corporations and knowing how to corrupt UN delegates and foreign politicians.

  3. Re:Oh, he probably does. on NSA Data Mining Much Larger Than Reported · · Score: 1

    But the donkeys and the elephants are owned by the same circus, and the elephants will not snitch on the donkeys because the donkeys know about the peanuts.

  4. Re:The second comment in the blog has it right on The Differences Between Red Hat and Novell · · Score: 1
    Thats just what THEY want you to beleve. When you have unlearned some of their programming I can explain the truth, you are not recpetable yet.

    /Real math comes from the heart.

  5. emacs! on Learning Java or C# as a Next Language? · · Score: 3, Funny

    Choose whatever language you like as long as you use emacs.

  6. Re:Good Article but... on ZNet interviews Richard Stallman · · Score: 1

    +5 Funny I dont know what kind of moron you are by that expression is an oxymoron.

  7. Re:It must be "beat up on Wikipedia week" on Wikipedia Founder Edits Own Bio · · Score: 1
    The hype market must move on, new buzzwords to (over)use.

    In other words, its just so 2005. And since we are on the internet quality is binary, so it has to be smeared by all means possible, or you are so 2005 too.

    I say /. is shoving maturity, editors seams as ignorant about geek stuff and overexited by article negating headlines as usual journalists are. This tabloid wannabee needs a gossip section for this crap.

  8. Re:Standardisation is nice but... on MSIE To Adopt Firefox Feed Icon · · Score: 1

    Hmmmm I thought it was "Rapid Simpsons Spreading".

  9. Re:Might want to get the website up first... on The Return of the Commodore? · · Score: 1

    But... Thats the wrong kind of basic, it should be Basic 2.0 ofcourse.

  10. Re:Poisoning the logs on EU Approves Data Retention · · Score: 1

    Im thinking more like bittorrent over smtp.

  11. Re:Haiku Commenting? on How to Write Comments · · Score: 1

    You could write the code twice, one version that's readable (,debuggable and expandable), and one version that is runable on your target system. Then add test code to show that both are equal in function (keep the versions in sync) You need to afford having the target code fairly modular and you need a system capable of running the tests(emulator/devel version of target). The tests aren't realy needed but quite convenient when hunting for bugs.

  12. Re:Why do we need a remake? on The Prisoner To Be Remade On U.K. TV · · Score: 1

    They have to take liberties, lots of liberties. The world is diffrent today, the message has to be tuned, the styling has to be tuned, every detail has to be changed more or less. As long as it keeps the spirit Im happy. (But they will probably do stupid stunts like those who rewrote a discarded 007 script calling it Mission Impossible or make a soap opera of it.)

  13. Re:Should not require notes on Is Wi-Fi Ruining College? · · Score: 1

    I borrowed someone elses notes or fucused harder on remebering what was said and written. What I should have done was of course reading the books and use the presentation to get the tricky stuff, but I was too lazy and used the presentation to guide me in reading only the most important pages in the books. Either way, taking notes distracts the learning.

  14. Re:Research? on Research Group Pushes to Ban Skype · · Score: 1

    Sweet, I love recursive reasoning.

    Ah, a real-doll for rural customers.

  16. Re:Echoes of Redhat on IBM Releases Cell SDK · · Score: 1

    The "unsupported, experimental" is just FUD to keep their customers on RHEL.

  17. Re:A Beautiful Mind, socialism and cooperation on SAP Exec Disparages Open Source As IP Socialism · · Score: 1

    I treat it as feodalism, where the land/IP owners taxes the pesants/consumers into powerty.

    Lets also claim democracy is a totalitarian goverment style Ill bring this evidence "Democratic Peoples Republic of Korea"

  19. Re:Exactly! on Vatican Rejects Intelligent Design? · · Score: 1

    Fake christians, they amuse me, how they can miss the Love, Peace & Understanding message, substituting it for Control, Hate & Fear is unbelevable. Jesus was a hippie!

  20. Re:Talk to those that wrote it down? on Vatican Rejects Intelligent Design? · · Score: 1

    Who cares, the author obviously realized those stories confused people and made sure second edition was written(NT). But beware, there are lots of third party addons in that one too. No need to hesitate on readiong it, even if third edition is in the making and it will probably not be out before Duke Nukem Forever.

  21. Re:No AGP! on Nvidia Launches New Affordable GPU · · Score: 1

    If you invest in a balanced computer you don't need to waste money on constant small upgrades. On the flip side you might be able to hack that card into a 6800 (when its so old that you dare it)

  22. Re:Why Change? on Fatal Flaw Weakens RFID Passports · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Buzzword compliance.

  23. MACRO, FILTER, UDF, PARAMETERIZED VIEWS on How Would You Improve SQL? · · Score: 1
    Standard way to make abstraction layers. I think they exist under names like: parameterized views and user defined functions. Nested selects are hairy to debug when they get long.

    Note that the layers exist only before the query optimizer, no extra performance cost beyond that.

  24. Re:another longhorn? on The Microsoft Singularity · · Score: 1
    Any OS needs apps to hit. No previous built-from-scratch had any chance of gaining critical mass of apps, the backwards compability was needed. But now, the open source flora is finally large enough for a built from scratch OS to take off. The porting work would be huge [1] but it would be possible.

    [1] Depending on the definition of "built from scratch" implementing API's to make it enough unix-like would speed up the porting.

    I hope you get my point, even if Im explaining it a bit messy.

  25. Stop the presses! FALSE ALARM! on Microsoft Plans Deliberate Xbox 360 Shortage · · Score: 1

    You're right, nobody in the marketing business has ever said something to confuse the competition, and microsoft has never ever lied, ever.
