Your claim that putting AdSense on a domain without first publishing some content is against the Google TOS is unsubstantiated. In fact, Google actually advocates publisher to monetize their unused domains with the Adsense for Domains progr

What’s the premise of your assertion that Google had a better case than this guy did?

I could not understand why they placed yahoo under ‘Telcom’ industry. In my opinion 'Technology' is the most closely fitting category.

While some of the changes like dropping register_globals and introducing UNICODE support were long overdue, the others make me fear they’ll eventually end up rendering PHP a Java look-alike. The essence of PHP is simplicity and getting thin

It’s akin to saying that If you don’t have a degree you are more likely to be an entrepreneur because your odds of getting a good job in a big company are very slim. I would have agreed with you had Bill Gates, for instance, never been to H

In a nutshell, could it be argued that kludges are fine as long as the programmer? • knows the exact location of the hacks. • Is aware of the repercussions and is assured that the system can get away with the kludges for the time being with

I don’t begrudge Google continuing it’s march up the popularity. I don’t see anything wrong with that. I don't find it troubling either. At least not right away. It would be troubling if 1) Google uses unfair means to increase it’s dominan

I have always had a feeling that McKinsey is hyped. I am amused that the bought into the hyperbole that Web 2.0 is. Especially when the noise around Web 2.0 is dieing down and the dust settling.

Agreed. The key is to avoid slavishly following a rule. You should not shy away from breaking a rule, provided you have good reasons for the violation. First learn what the good rules are (as applicable in majority of cases) and then learn

What beats me is why so many Americans are against the H1B while barely anyone bats an eyelid at the Diversity Visas. I assume it would make more sense for the US to cut down randomly allotted Diversity Visas and lift the bar on H1B . Or p

If you force a `definition` of a term to explain every possible characteristic, nuances, and exceptions of the term, you are unlikely to come up with something meaningful and useful. When you make a statement in everyday conversations, it i

When you are just starting out with a shoestring budget, developing the product is the most important thing on the to-do list. Business skills are certainly desirable. But since the company is operating on limited budget, those skills canno

Contrarily, I would have surprised had it been hacked through a vulnerability in PHP. For two reasons. 1) as the custodian of the forum software, I wouldn’t expect them to keep a vulnerable edition of the software in the production server.

Ruby on Rails is not a CMS. It’s a framework. While it’s true that the line of demarcation between a framework and a CMS continues to blur, it’s still important to be able to tell one from the other. Conceptually, the two are discrete entit
