It's a quick thought, but what we could do is the following: Have a wiki-like site, where the community update source information about news items. On the items pages, they also make links to news articles on the web. Along with this there

I agee. It's also more important that scientists don't involve themselves in politics, especially when politicians are looking to use science as a basis for what essentially is a political decision. When the two get muddled it gets messy.

When it comes to decision making, the managers should be more like customers, or representing customer's demands. The customer's demands are usually less technical, like they want something 'fast' or 'not to break' or 'cheap' or 'easy to u

I think this is mostly a case of someone who develops for Linux, but prefers to develop on his desktop instead of a development server that is close to the production environment. This results in requiring the desktop to be closer to that

I usually start with a small project, sometimes something I've implemented before. The first thing I do is start from a Hello World example, and then expand that with features to get to the program I want. I do these features from example

Which basically means you need to do encryption in a manner that doesn't look like encryption, inside of something that's unencrypted. For example over DNS, inside of HTTP, or other protocols designed for moving code like RPC.

I took one in high school too, it was a choice between typing and woodwork. Most boys took woodwork, I knew I would need it for computers one day and I'm glad I did. I also don't have problems with the characters that were not part of the

I spoke only Afrikaans for the first 6 years of my life. The simplification still affects me when speaking English, mainly the examples mentioned in the article, especially with regards to tenses. I still sometimes make mistakes with 'do/d

Awesome, when building crystal radios out in the sticks as a kid, getting my hands on a suitable crystal diode was one of my problems. The other problem was getting a crystal earpiece. I guess a rather complicated way around that would be

These things come in waves. I remember in the early 90s when organised piracy was rife. There were courier groups transferring data between BBS systems, between countries, usually committing various kinds of telephone and bank fraud in th

I've been a visa requiring foreigner for about a third of my life, and I have found that apart from being nice, humble and unassuming the best is to dress conservatively, be clean and just basically look like you are too conservative to bre

It's very good, keep at refining it. I also think you're bang on with the UI layout. You're certainly onto something here. I'm sure you'll have a million little feature requests, perhaps you should use somewhere where people can vote on

Thanks for mentioning that this is happening in South Africa, since I recently got my mother a land line there. That said, her laptop is so bad and used for so little that it would be funny to see them trying to do anything with it.

That's generally a good strategy for beating the crowd at speculating. The problem is knowing when you are following or beating the crowd. The other problem is timing it right. Normally when 'everyone knows' that tech stock, property, or

I have been thinking about solutions to this, to get a feeling for how things will work out in the future by itself. Technology allows us to replace manual labour with machines, but it also can create jobs for other things we have been str

I think a better way to describe it would be to say that in order to make sure you earn an average salary, you have to be above average at something, and more so than in the previous century.

I'm all for donations from outside of the US, I'm also for voting to have fewer than 7 out of 10 of the Wikipedia board be from the US. I think this is important for the neutrality of Wikipedia, perceived and real.

To me, this is a bit like people complaining that the feds seized their car that was legally rented from them, by their dope dealer. I'm not surprised that people used the service for legal means, but I am surprised that people can expect

It was, but I'm sure the protest mob will still hate it. However, there is grain of truth in it. When the US passed the UIGEA it created huge opportunity in Europe. US export restrictions on cryptography has also been good for Europe.
