12/30/2004 12:55 AMAP - Ohio State didn't miss starting quarterback Troy Smith a bit.
Justin Zwick stepped in for the suspended Smith and threw for 189
yards and a touchdown, and Ted Ginn Jr. and Lydell Ross each scored,
leading No. 24 Ohio State to a 33-7 victory over Oklahoma State in the
Alamo Bowl on Wednesday night.

for the roll out for 0.1.0, and enjoy Parrot's crunchy object-y
goodness! Enjoy! And yeah, I know--constructors, destructors, objects
that masquerade as other PMC types, AUTOLOAD (or other fallback method
providing mechanisms), cross-type inheritance, and multimethod
dispatch would all be nice. Hey, you take what you can get, right?

12/24/2004 12:45 PMLauren wanted to visit her Mum on the farm for a few days before
Christmas. The world is well into its pre-Christmas slowdown and I’m
coding away on Zeppelin these days, which doesn’t require much Net
access, so I said OK. So I’m sitting in front of NetBeans except
when I’m out pushing the kid’s sled down the hill or visiting with
the cows. Zeppelin, like most software, has lots of layers, and I
haven’t fiddled with the bottom-layer APIs for a while. Except for I
did, added this trivial little method that Couldn’t Possibly Go
Wrong, but (arrrrgh) no JUnit test to be sure. Which cost me the best
part of a day of debugging a completely incomprehensible application
full stop because down at the bottom level there was an
args[0] instead of
args[1]. To all those who
sat in rooms at one point or another this last couple of years and
listened to me drone on in a superior tone of voice about the extreme
importance and Karmic excellence of unit testing, you are now entitled
to one large snicker in my general direction.

An R-Rated Trademark Dispute?
04/19/2005 04:16 AMThe MPAA really does get a little crazy when it comes to over-reacting
on intellectual property issues. Their latest move is to send out
cease-and-desist letters to sites that host fan fiction -- not because
those made up stories use characters, places and themes from real
movies -- but
because
they use the (trademarked) MPAA movie rating system. That's
right, if you happen to label your story as rated G, PG, PG-13, R or
NC-17, you'd better watch out, the MPAA might come after you. Of
course, they seem to ignore the fact that this system has become
common around the world, is
hardly taking anything away from
the MPAA's own system (if anything, it
enhances it), and also
is useful in keeping age-inappropriate stories off the screens of
those who shouldn't see them.
