But you're corect anyway. Lerdoff replied here, and i basically take back what i said about him.:) The submitter, however, will just have to take the brunt of it.
Things like educating people as to where building a house is *not* a wise choice to make - whether due to earthquakes, hurricanes, tornadoes, floods, etc.
That's why i added the word "preventable" in the last reply.:)
If it is preventable, we must know about it, most likely *where* it hits.
And to answer your point, assuming there are no choices, responding to one over the other is merely the emotional response saying "stick it to 'em!", but perhaps not shared by people affected only by the other disaster.
However, I'll assume that this was meant as a mild form of disagreement. I.e., that you think that terrorism deserves more resources because of its source and the choices of its victims.
Yes.
Additionally, do you (or anyone else) think that the victims of natural disasters wouldn't want steps taken to mitigate those natural disasters? I suspect you'd find a more unified front from those victims than from the victims of, say, 9/11.
True. But the people who are affected by preventable natural disasters, which are generally confined to specific places, (usually) have a choice to be there, and (usually) have a choice to leave there Terrorism, however will follow the people, and thus gives victims much less of a choice. So, where choice is removed, the government steps in. And that, IMHO, is as it should be.
Remember, *my* government is spending *my* money, to protect *me*. I want to help others as well, but not when they have the ability to make a choice and avoid the natural disasters in the first place.
"The Web is pretty much broken, we can all go home now," Lerdorf said somewhat sarcastically to the capacity crowd. "Luckily most people don't realize that it's broken."
Header "stupidity," as Lerdorf referred to it in Apache HTTP Web server, can also be the root cause for the broken Web.
"IE is completely broken in so many ways," Lerdorf said.
This guy is an idiot. PHP is a nice product though, if anyone can get past its inconsistent function naming schemes.
He also states:
"You have to filter everything and then poke a few holes to let things through, "Lerdorf advised.
He *just* learned that? Oh my, that's scary.
"If you can fit your problem into what MySQL can handle it's very fast," Lerdorf said. "You can gain quite a bit of performance."
MySQL is made for speed compromising to act like a database where it does not break its own convenience. PostgreSQL is a database which will compromise for speed, if it does not break the database.
From someone who obviously is suprised that to secure something you need to make a safe-house and then be strict about what gets in, it seems that he missed the point on the MySQL/PostgreSQL thing.
Maybe by the next conference he'll grow up and state the new revelation "You have to use a database like PostgreSQL and use a warehouse schema to allow faster reporting."

Nor was this a "slam". PostgreSQL is not made for specifically web use. If anything, Lerdorf merely publicly demonstrated his own immaturity.
The Yahoo! library for perl which has some really nice desktop-looking java (folder views, containers, tables, and so on). They definitely have put time and effort into the experience. Making the libraries available, was very nice too.
The only real issue i have with Yahoo! is privacy. They seem to have no backbone when served with a request for information.
Ultimately, these people are still running Windows. And Microsoft has been caught in the past. They could just add more undocumented features in their browser and make it more stable or whatever.
The pull of Microsoft is it's stability and the way everything fits together. Another online app might not be enough on its own to challenge Microsoft anywhere.
Then again, as we move further into the Internet age, and the people are more and more Internet oriented, it could be people will specifically want online apps, or dumb terminals just to play games.
With a new computer of moderate performance costing about $300, the price for fixing a computer should be much less. Though, businesses don't have that option, so small business support may be the best, assuming they ahve not signed someone up yet.
For home help, the issue aof liability can loom over your head, and then the complaints over who lost what data. And, being you enter their home, there are a host of issues that come into play. Or at least, that's what kept me away from doing something similar.
The galaxy, named IOK-1, is so far away that the light waves that reached Earth depict it as the system of stars existed shortly after the Big Bang created the universe 13.66 billion years ago.

Quick look, wow lots of sources. So, i checked one. Number 6.
Um, this is a bogus story. Sorry.
ActiveX should be dead and burried by now.
Perhaps you mean ActiveX on untrusted sites. On an intranet especially, or certain trusted sites, it can be invaluable.
Another ActiveX exploit. *yawn*
If you want to be safe in IE, turn off ActiveX from untrusted sites. Hasn't this been known since day one?
News would be if ActiveX was tested and found to be safe.
Heh.
Of course, Stallman will ignore that message, because Martian is not an open source language.
In other news, Richard Stallman slammed NASA for using GPL code, but not allowing everyone to pilot the robot or go on space mission.
In a statement released today, NASA has responded by offering to send Stallman to Mars.
I read the article, and had that opinion.

Wow, that is *completely* different than what the article states.
:P
*phew* i was beginning to wonder..
Than again, you have a lower id than me. You *must* be telling the truth.
>>If anything, Lerdorf merely publicly demonstrated his own immaturity.
>I'm pretty sure that inventing PHP demonstrated that pretty effectively.
Hey, i'll give him credit for creating a language that appeals to so many people. I've coded i it myself for a while.
He is defnitely capable, just seemingly immature or something.

I guess i never actually paid attention to that.

However, there are lots of other serious issues that also demand our attention.
The source of a disaster, and the choices of the victims come into play as well.
There's a _hardware_ interrupt for that! :)
Introvert and extravert are the most common matches. Just like Guardian/Artisan (SJ/SP). This is basic Jung (and MBTI and Keirsey...)
Seriously, this is news?

If they make a bionic eye, will it be able to take pictures?
Wow, Linux in the antipods, who would have thought?
You haven't actually read the proposed law, have you?
The proposed law has to do with the congress and agencies, not the president.
Why does everyone need to code? Keeping more people away from it is a good thing, which will raise the overall quality of code.

Amazing how it is just taken as a fact.
