Vodafone Wants To Stop Text Bullies
Vodafone Wants To Stop Text Bullies
06/24/2004 01:49 AMSMS text bullying among kids is nothing new. It's been
talked
about for years. Now, however, Vodafone New Zealand and an
organization called NetSafe say they're going to
fight
back against text bullying... by telling bully victims to run
screaming to NetSafe. Just like the typical adult response to
bullying: tell an adult about it, and they'll hand you a brochure
about why you shouldn't worry about the bullies. While it's good that
they're trying to do something, somehow I doubt this will be much
comfort to those being bullied. The one aspect of the program that
could be somewhat effective is that it will allow kids to block text
messages from certain individuals. Still, if a bully finds out that
someone he or she is bullying has taken these steps, it seems only
like to make them bully more, since they know it's having an impact.

Have you checked
your humors today? Not the
gunky jelly stuff in people's
eyes, the
other kind.
Are you
melancholic<
/a>, phlegmatic,
sanguine, or
choleric? Are you a
salamander, gnome, nymph or sylph?
Earth, water, air or fire?
Elf, Ninja, Pirate or Dwarf? (arrrr! buckets
of blood! flagons of phlegm and barrels of black bile!)
If nothing else, the theory of humors adds to one's arcane
vocabulary.

07/03/2004 04:39 PMYou go away for two days and all hell breaks loose. But then again,
who cares - it's someone else's hell, right? Completely randomly and
spontaneously on Wednesday I decided that I'd go up and visit my
family for a couple of days to try and get some mental perspective.
Two days with my brother and beautiful views and use of a car and some
decent food and totally quiet sleeping environments. Terrifyingly
calming. See if you can guess the common feature of the following
photos:
That's right! They don't have any bloody fucking people in them!
Arriving back in London on a Saturday afternoon in Midsummer was like
being stuck in a bloody battery farm after being free range. I'm
finding it harder and harder to deal with all .. the .. bloody ..
morons .. milling around London at two miles an hour, holding hands
while walking about three feet apart from each other, glancing in each
other's eyes longingly and casually swinging their pastel shopping
bags around while behind them fifty or sixty people are stuck at their
pedestrian snail's pace - each and everyone thinking so loud it must
be practically audible, "What the fuck is wrong with you people?! And
would there be a jury in the land who would convict me if I pulled out
a sword right now and ran you all through?!"

12/15/2003 02:05 PM...having callback function arguments that do not take a corresponding
invocation-specific data pointer. You want to have a function that
takes a function pointer, and have your library call that function at
some point in the future if some event happens? Cool! Works for me. I
like those. (Well, sorta, event/callback/async programming is a pain)
However.... the signature should never be: int
register_callback(func_pointer_t callback); Bad! Bad programmer! No
cookie! That signature should be: int register_callback(func_pointer_t
callback, void *extra_data); Or, if you'd rather, take a struct that
has the function pointer and callback data in it, if you don't want

buffers too. For example, ponder a hypothetical (yeah, right) library
routine--let's call it, say, new_form which takes a NULL (rather than
NUL, which is different, but you knew that) terminated buffer of field
pointers. You call it and the fields in the buffer are now part of a
brand-spanking new form. Yay, us. Anything that handles even part of
form and field stuff is welcome, as it's a pain (though I could rant
about ncurses for a while. But not today) to handle. But... what

Stop SQL Injection Attacks Before They

09/12/2004 11:33 PMArmed with advanced server-side technologies like ASP.NET and powerful
database servers such as Microsoft® SQL Server™, developers are
able to create dynamic, data-driven Web sites with incredible ease.
But the power of ASP.NET and SQL can easily be used against you by
hackers mounting an all-too-common class of attack—the SQL injection
attack.
The basic idea behind a SQL injection attack is this: you create a
Web page that allows the user to enter text into a textbox that will
be used to execute a query against a database. A hacker enters a
malformed SQL statement into the textbox that changes the nature of
the query so that it can be used to break into, alter, or damage the
back-end database. How is this possible? Let me illustrate with an
example.

On putting 'I'm gay' on a
tongue-in-cheek mock-up of a business
card (and all the bloody grief it's
causing)...
12/24/2004 01:02 PMSo I've been trying to respond to the thread about my apparent
obsession with going on about my sexuality (note - they're talking
about this) that's manifested
over at NSLog(); except now all my comments are getting bounced for
'questionable content'. I've tried removing all the rude words from
what I write, but god knows it's hard, and it doesn't appear to be
doing any good. Before anyone goes running at his head suggesting that
he's blocking comments like this to avoid debate, I should point out
that I've been having problems with the MTBlacklist questionable
content filters recently, so I'm not implying anything. Instead I
thought I'd just post it here, with all the rude words back in... Feel
free to post your own thoughts about this stuff either here or over on
his site... But be nice, eh?
If what you're doing here is warning me that by having my
sexuality on a card I might give out to people might stop me getting
jobs, then thank you very much. Clearly by my age I wouldn't have
figured that out already.
Figures suggest that people who don't meet their partners at school or
university tend to meet them through work. Clearly this happens by
complete coincidence - two people (let's say they're straight) are so
conscious that they must not be flagrant about their heterosexuality
that they avoid all mention of it for years until they happen to bump
into each other at some kind of 'straight bar', recognise their
attraction suddenly and fall into each other's arms. Clearly there's
absolutely no assumption that it's okay to flirt with each other at a
Christmas party or whatever. Clearly no one talks about what they did
at the weekend if it could possibly be construed as to make any
reference (direct or indirectly) to whether they're gay or straight or
not. So they wouldn't say that they'd cooked a meal for their
girlfriend, or go to see a film with their boyfriend. Clearly they
wouldn't say out loud that they'd had a birthday party for their
3-year old son. I mean all of these things would be shouting from
the rooftops about their sexuality. They may as well be standing
outside your house with placards or rutting like Bonobo monkeys on the
photocopier.
And quite right, I think, they should be ashamed of themselves -
fornicating with their partners at home! Giving birth to children!
Socialising with their family! Getting married! The shame. They make
me sick.
I can honestly say that I'm stunned by your statement that you cannot
see the difference between someone feeling the need to make it clear
they were gay to avoid discomfort and awkwardness for themselves and
their colleagues, and the fact that straight people simply don't need
to do that stuff. Straight sexuality comes up in conversation a dozen
times a day - by association, by reference, however.
At no point during my piece over on plasticbag.org or here have I said
that a gay person should 'go on about' their sexuality. In fact quite
the opposite. As far as I'm concerned, getting it out of the way early
means that the whole thing becomes less of an issue - not more. It's
about everyone knowing where they stand, so that they don't say
something crass in the office like, "Oh that photocopier is so gay"
while someone over the other side of the room feels it like a kick in
the head. It's so that the gay individual concerned doesn't have to go
through this whole long drawn-out tentative process with each member
of staff as issues of boyfriends/girlfriends, what you did at the
weekend, what you think about some piece of the news, whether you
fancy that bird in accounting come up in idle conversation. Because
that stuff is bloody difficult and infuriating and frankly I'm not
prepared to go back to a time where I have to go through all that
bollocks every time I happen to meet a new human being.
All of which misses the point. I don't make a secret of my sexuality,
but nor do I tend to make a big deal about it. Most people who read my
site have no idea that I'm gay. They find it a 'surprise' when they
find out. I wish that wasn't the case. I wish that they weren't
assuming that I was straight. I wish it wasn't an issue at all, but it
remains one I'm afraid. I could bring my sexuality into my site all
the bloody time if I wanted to, but I don't. I think I've struck a
good balance between making my sexuality clear and then getting it off
the table to talk about other stuff. And if you don't like that
balance, well frankly tough. I don't care whether you like it or not.
I'll be damned if I'm going to treat the rest of my life like my
teenage years and live in fear of 'being found out'.
I should also point out that you've missed a hell of a lot of
qualifying language from my post as well. I mean the very title
includes, "In a happier world...". The text itself calls it a
"Tongue-in-cheek-ish slightly-bored early-evening version of what I
would kind of like my business card to be like." I stand by it - if
anything your reaction makes me want to use it more - but it was never
meant to be anything but a throwaway offhand happy and less formal
card that I felt represented me accurately. It's true that I don't
think that the normal separation of life and work is a reasonable one
- that I think that we should act according to our principles in both,
that we should care about our work all the time, that it should
ideally be a passion and as much of our personality as things like
your sexuality or nationality or political beliefs or whatever. I
really care about my work and don't just see it as something that pays
the bills, any more than I think my sexuality is just about something
that happens in bed with a friend. But just because I'm not as willing
to distinguish between the things I get paid to do and the things I do
because I think it's the right and proper way of operating in the
world, doesn't make it reasonable for you to conflate two words on a
mock-up of a business card with a form of big swinging-dick
sex-obsessed radical queer activism!
Oh and somewhere along the line you also make some comment about how I
seem to have a lot of respect for myself, and I'm beginning to think
that's really where a lot of this stuff is coming from. If you find me
personally annoying or offensive then just say so and we can talk
about that like grown-ups. Seems at the moment that the only person
fixating on my sexuality is you.
