Think of others when you name your files
07/21/2004 01:09 PMThis is not a technical story about Linux file names, but a brief
thought about names we choose for files we have created ourselves, and
how even the best file name you choose for yourself can become
meaningless when you share that file with others.

than 30% of them are blog entries......

You Still Want The Old Files, Right?
You Still Want The Old Files, Right?
04/07/2005 05:31 AMLike many others, I too have been surprised by this bug in Windows'
file explorer, where "replacing a folder" really means "merge the two
folders" instead. Thankfully, no files were lost in the process,
only a slightly confused human being who was surprised to find old
files still lurking inside the folder.
Unfortunately, I now have
to find a special location in my memory to keep this little fact
whenever I operate a Windows machine.

Source files from ftp.gnu.org
10/28/2003 11:07 PM
As announced in this CERT
advisory, it has recently been discovered that
the ftp servers for GNU software were compromised back in March,
although it is not believed that any of the source code housed there
was affected.
Fink relies on MD5 checksums when downloading software, and we have
had
no reports of incorrect checksums in Fink packages. The Free Software
Foundation is in the process of verifying the integrity of all of the
source code distributed from that ftp site. As of this writing, the
source
code for the following Fink packages have not yet been verified:
autoconf2.54,
emacs21,
gprolog,
groff,
guile16,
help2man,
jwhois,
libtool14,
libosip1,
sed,
slib.
It may be difficult to install those packages at present.

Group
wants P2P files to pay. "The Content Reference Forum is hoping to
create a kind of intelligent file that can be distributed through
file-sharing networks like Kazaa, Web pages, e-mail or almost anywhere
else online. Instead of containing a song or movie itself, the file
would set up a process that automatically delivers files in the right
format and potentially triggers an automatic payment system that could
be changed moment to moment by the content distributor." The P2P
aspect looks bogus; why would I share one of these reference files?
Why would I try to download legitimate content through Kazaa? If I
want legitimate content I'll go to the official source.
Putting together PDF files
Putting together PDF files
06/17/2004 08:21 AMThere are times when you need to combine multiple files from diverse
sources into a single PDF file. In Windows or the MacOS it's easy --
use Adobe Acrobat. Sadly, Adobe hasn't deigned to put out a version of
Acrobat for Linux, but there are a number of Linux utilities available
that enable you to quickly and efficiently combine PDF files. This
article looks at three command line utilities: Ghostscript, joinPDF,
and pdfmeld. Each does a good job of combining PDF files, and they all
pack some interesting features.

three PDF
files you can download regarding Celebration III show hours, floor
plans, booth prices and so much more. The interesting thing is that
additional vendor passes cost $90 on pre-order and $105 at the event.
Vendor passes for Celebration II were the same price as a three day
pass. So it looks like this will be the price range for a typical four
day pass to Celebration III.

12/02/2003 12:32 AMChipmaker Atheros files paperwork to have a public stock offering:
News.com's Richard Shim reports that Atheros filed papers Nov. 26 to
raise about $100 million in an initial public offering. The company
had nearly $50 million in revenue in the first nine months of 2003
compared to $16.5 million in the same period last year, while that
period's losses this year were about $12 million versus $16 million
last year. Before Comdex, competitor Broadcom launched a broadside
against Atheros's chipsets with the Super G Turbo mode turned on for
108 Mbps speeds. While Broadcom says the complaint isn't directly
connected to Atheros, but rather with out-of-standards hardware in
general, Atheros is in the target because of it was well-known the
company was ready to launch its IPO....

Following previous posts on
Sunjit the Chicken Man and
An
drei the Dog Boy, several BB readers emailed me their favorite
references to wild children raised by animals. For example, this
site
talks about France's Wild Boy of Averyon, "a remarkable creature (who)
came out of the woods" in 1800. The text comes from a great book
called
The Forbidden Experiment: The Story of the
Wild Boy of Aveyron, by Roger Shattuck. Here is one naturalist's
observations of the Wild Boy:
"When he is
sitting down, and even when he is eating, he makes a guttural sound,
a low murmur; and he rocks his body from right to left or backwards
and forwards, with his head and chin up, his mouth closed, and his
eyes staring at nothing. In this position he sometimes has spasms,
convulsive movements that may indicate that his nervous system has
been affected.
There is nothing wrong with the boy’s five senses, but their
order of importance seemed to be modified. He relies first on smell,
then on taste; his sense of touch comes last. His sight is sharp; his
hearing seems to shut out many sounds people around him pay close
attention to. Nothing interests him but food and sleep."
BB reader Andy Scudder also points us to a
transc
ript of a NOVA documentary called "Secret of the Wild Child." And
then Alberto Gaitan sends us to
FeralChildren
.com a comprehensive clearinghouse of information on "isolated,
confined, wolf and wild children." Perhaps it's time for a big screen
remake of the 1977 TV series
Lucan?
