“You have no idea what that October was like,” Roberts has told teammates. “I have not had one day since that game when someone hasn’t come up and thanked me. Not one day.” – i’ll not only thank him, i’ll buy him a beer [Sub req'd]
-
couple of folks pointed me to this, and they’re right – it’s a very useful, and very rational, take on patents and other mechanisms like copyright, trade secrets and so forth
-
weird – why is Maine in with Alaska and Hawaii as states whose area codes aren’t available? could it be because the entire state is still covered by a single area code (i defy you to find that somewhere else these days)
-
Rafe agrees
-
“Finally we have Steven O’Grady of Redmonk doing one of his trademark Q&A discussions. Its great stuff, and though he does try to walk a fine to not offend Microsoft (one of his customers)” – interesting, it apparently reads as less harsh than i thought
-
brilliant response from Mr. Walli; would love to see the patent wiki idea take shape – anybody needs help with that, let us know
-
notes from the dynamic language on the JVM session at RedMonkOne – big thanks to Andrew for documenting this
-
BBTF’s Bullpen Mechanics Discussion :: Let’s talk about Arm Slot–A video review of Jonathan Papelbonmuch as i like Papelbon in the bullpen, the prospect of him getting hurt is terrifying
-
not a surprise – Mark’s not a fan of patents; unfortunately, in today’s system, vendors are more or less obligated to pursue them
-
very solid list of community building tips
-
“JavaFX Script opens the possibility of using JE in an embedded environment and so I thought it would be interesting to verify that it all works ok.” – Mike’s right, this is pretty cool
-
half a dozen folks pointed me over here, and honestly, i can see why – cut and paste don’t work? seriously?
-
“Pure open source software businesses are orders of magnitude less profitable than their closed source brethren even as they close in on them in terms of the number of customers.” – i know many people will disagree, but i just can’t see margins holding up
-
Dalibor’s summary of JavaOne – was *excellent* to meet him, just sorry i didn’t get to hang with mjw as well
-
lots of interesting news from the Red Hat Summit, it would appear
-
had a presentation on this at RedMonkOne – will have to track it with respect to adoption
-
this would be interesting
-
Zimbra’s a fan of the Exchange, it would seem
-
some new cool UI bits from the Nitobi gang
-
” ‘Shipping is a feature too’ – I wonder if Stephen will add that to his list of ‘feature’ posts.” – Alex beat me to it
-
here’s hoping his advice is heeded
-
interesting. i might have to try this – i’m more a Zawodny style presenter at this point
