grazulis - william s. burroughs - cutup machine
Topic: Technology 4:41 am EST, Mar  4, 2003

I have found that this cut up engine has some interesting properties. Properties which were probably not forseen or intended by the authors.

Use a mouse to drop a Requirements Document, as written by, say, a member of the Sales staff into the upper box. Then visit the CPAN site, grab a couple of relevant Perl modules and drop them into the bottom box. Activate the 'Cut It Up' button, grab the results, drop it in to your source code file and fire up the Perl interpreter. Voila! you now have a well structured Perl program which conforms to spec.

Sometimes you will have to try it a couple of times. It seems to work with Bugzilla reports, too. It doesn't seem to work with lisp since it has trouble keeping the parentheses balanced properly.

Obese men eat up their IQ points - theage.com.au
Topic: Miscellaneous 4:13 pm EST, Mar  3, 2003

] Being overweight is not only bad for men's hearts - it
] also makes them less intelligent. A study of the
] intelligence of the obese has found that being seriously
] overweight reduces intelligence in males, possibly
] through its effect on blood circulation in the brain.

I'm just a cyantist not a scientist, but I don't know if I buy this. I know plenty of obese men who are crazy smart. Maybe they'd just be even smarter? Whoa.

Stupidity should be cured, says DNA discoverer - New Scientist
Topic: Science 4:02 pm EST, Mar  3, 2003

Fifty years to the day from the discovery of the structure of DNA, one of its co-discoverers has caused a storm by suggesting that stupidity is a genetic disease that should be cured.

Watson of "Watson and Crick" provides undeniable proof that intelligence cannot be measured on a single graduated scale.

Radebaugh: The Future We Were Promised
Topic: Arts 4:01 pm EST, Mar  3, 2003

Welcome to the exhibition of rediscovered works by the mid 20th century illustrator A.C. Radebaugh.

A very cool exhibit, soon to open in Philadelphia, displaying lots of futuristic graphic artwork from the 1950s. Flying cars, urban airships docked at skyscrapers, and more. This stuff is almost propagandist in its technological optimism.

[iSONEWS] I have been convicted of Copyright Infringement . .and its NOT funny.

My name is Glendon, that link above should fill you in on what happened to me back in Nov of 2000. I'm posting this to answer questions i hope you would have about this case/trial. I used to be as deep in the scene as possible until that happened. I would like to warn you people who can be rather ignorant (as i was) to what is really going on around you as you 'happily trade warez'. I'm open to any questions you have, and please ask, because you really need to know, this is no joke and by far not worth the consequences!
