When you ask your employer that 'why' question, what comes next? Suppose the address book API's were unknown to both employer and employee; the employer might say 'go ahead and write the core component that will manage just a list of names

Maybe pay someone to hand out cards to homeless people on the streets of big cities. A google-like bus shuttle to get people to/from every month or two, since you will likely cycle through people rather than retain them for a year.

Dude can grep wikipedia and has parents that can talk about topics in a deep way, or provide resources to him on topics that interest him. Most parents would do the opposite and restrict internet access for starters, let alone have the abil

Is this an application that will run on your own web servers, or do you intend businesses and individuals to install it on their own machines? If the latter you might consider whether your business can flourish under a GPL license with the

I've used nagios and before that, ganglia for some monitoring. I've been looking into cacti lately for monitoring qmail message status and an asterisk installation for the number of active channels. Many of these systems use rrdtool and eve

Its not that theres a conspiracy its just that sometimes when you have a structure in place its hard for it to change or improve. Does the US government even have a group of people working on just that topic? Surely the three main branches

I thought of the free software based Asterisk PBX too. Maybe a modern interpretation is that the face represents someone making a poor comment as they disagree with someone, basically spewing dial tone!

The other key concept is that after some clients upload to a specific sub path area that is authorized for uploads, the clients can use a query string option on a GET request to list out files in that area. I suppose the website owner could

Here is one way to approach the transition, starting today. If you can leave Asterisk running somewhere and you already have say a domain name that you use for a blog or personal website, then you can point iax.domain.com to your Asterisk a

I agree its important to separate out the concerns of office productivity with these individual world viewpoints that people possess (either more aspergers-like, or more towards a social bent). Even if kept bundled I credit those with asper

And the engineers are brought in to meetings limited with what they can say; if the truth has a hard edge, its the sales persons job to smooth it over. Essentially, the engineer or tech is handcuffed.

AOL paid him $100 million for winamp, and he refused to sell out to the point of placing a desktop icon for aol during the install. Version 3.0 became bloated, and so v2.9 was released as a more stream lined version. Some other projects lik

Yes, the GPLv3 drafting process had something like this. Implementing this in a firefox plugin that logs into a web highlighting service might be a clean way to go about it.

Supposedly you're not supposed to switch to dvorak too quickly, like within a 48 hour period like I did. It kind of scrambles your brain a bit, and I lost my ability to qwerty for a moment there. With time I started typing quicker in both d

For a moment I was confused about what this was about, because a slight misspelling takes you to an illegitimate site RefreshThings.com that I went to first by accident.

The new approach may be okay so long as the book is accurate. All too often school boards default to a more error prone book, due to a connection to a specific marketer. Feynman on school books: http://www.textbookleague.org/103feyn.htm

Compare that to the shuttle design where lives are on the line and the software has to just work. The microsoft spec approach is really to just ``wing it''

If MSFT as a company reaches a survival point where they have to release free software, it would be a nice touch for the code to be readable, well-written and nearly bug free.

One thing I always liked about the Arcades was that in general, companies like Sega and others would put out machines that were far ahead of the home consoles. The average person simply couldn't afford it, and therefore did not mind droppin

Maybe a better one would delve into defining/tutoring some S-expressions with an introduction to Common Lisp? It could go on for hours.

Has anyone asked Austin about his thoughts on releasing GPL clients? Theres no doubt he has a passion to continue massaging world-data and refining the simulator design; I think if he knew users would still purchase binary client and data
