I wonder if Facebook uses only photos where the tag area doesn't overlap. Many of my friends will tag the same person as themselves and their spouse so that person will see the picture. They use the tag system as pure notification. I could

The last time I used the openJDK on ubuntu was version 9.10 and then JGoodies LaF looked abysmal. Well, by abysmal I mean that the openJDK inserted spacing between most components and the sun JDK looked consistent with the rendering on Wind

I also have this problem. I spent a large part of the weekend creating a tool for my developers at work to make their live easier instead of spending those precious minutes with my wife and 8 month old sweet girl. Some argue that we already

I'd like to know what you think about my desktop Java apps, fleitz. Do note that the apps are not fully functional, but that's my shortcomings, not Java's: http://www.assembla.com/wiki/show/jtuils

In a reply above I admit that I did not think about/realize that I was not talking about US citizens. That changes the equation entirely. I never made a moral judgment against these guys. I simply that if they are knowingly doing something

Yes, exactly. I feel I have been very bad at saying that the content should never have been classified to begin with (though due to the nature of how it was gathered it must be), and that it is the protection of our communication security w

Totally agree with you on all points. Good suggestions too. This instance is a little different because they hacked a DoD communication encryption algorithm. Even if this was used to cover up something, how much other data has been sent usi

Well, that IS what I believe. But regardless to what I believe, it is illegal to knowingly publish classified information. The ramifications of doing so with respect to hacking the encryption algorithm could possibly cause far greater damag

Oh, exactly what was it you wanted me to say (EDITED out rude comment). I at least used DH3 - Contradiction: they should be shut down. Weak yes, but I also thought I used DH4 - Counterargument: I think they would be breaking federal law by

If this WAS it, then they should be shut down. I'm not saying the video shouldn't be released or that the contents should be covered up, but the encryption algorithms that pertain to DoD COMSEC are classified and I think they would be break

Neat concept, although the organization of items in a temporal fashion is different from culture to culture. Dr Alice Gaby speaks a little about this in episode 41 of The BrainScience Podcast ( http://docartemis.com/brainsciencepodcast/2008
