Naturellement, the Aristocrats.

South Park does the "Aristocrats" joke. (WARNING!
Windows Media file,
very very not safe for work.) "The
Aristocrats" is a long-lived comedians' in-joke--or, rather, an
extraordinarily filthy joke that's not really a joke. (Gilbert
Gottfried
knocked 'em dead with it shortly after 9/11.) Now it's
going public (sort of):
Penn Jillette and Paul Provenza are making a
movie featuring over 100 comedians telling their own
versions. The
South Park version linked above is "not even
in the top 5 for dirtiest." Yikes!

When was your first PHP?
John Coggeshall: Sitting in a darkened smoke filled room...
I was almost out of money but a friend of mine told me she [PHP] was
good for a trick or two and didn't charge much.
His comments on Perl, Java, and Visual Basic are really
good. You can read more of this over at the PHP-

Companies Who Can't Take A Joke, But Can
Push A Lie
Companies Who Can't Take A Joke, But Can
Push A Lie
02/12/2004 02:16 PMIt's no secret that, on the internet, if you don't like something and
try to get it taken down, you're only going to draw a lot more
attention to it. However, corporations still haven't gotten this
message. They seem to get especially annoyed at parodies, complaining
that people might be tricked by them. Here's an article that takes
these companies to task for
not being
able to take a joke, while at the same time having so-called
"independent" organizations that are paid by them set up advocacy
websites that are nothing more than a front for the company or group
in question. In other words, companies get upset about advocacy that
goes against them and try to force the sites down, worrying that
people will get "confused." At the same time, they're hiding the fact
that they're behind these other advocacy sites (which, some might say
is confusing readers, as well). As the writer of the article points
out, even if they're right, they're doing themselves harm by not being
upfront and honest about these sites: "The more successful the
strategy in the short term, the more it will eventually corrode trust
in the long. People persuaded by such sites will feel betrayed when it
becomes evident they were duped. And it won't even matter if the
pseudo sites have truth on their side: when a messenger is exposed as
an impostor, their credibility is destroyed." Another example of
short-term thinking from corporations that do them much more damage in
the long term.

For Sun , Microsoft Settlement Is No
Joke
04/19/2004 11:03 AMWe may miss Scott McNealy's jabs at Microsoft, but the money from the
recent settlement will inject new life into Sun, which badly needs a
transfusion. Many of us are just now coming to grips with the most
serious implication of the April 2 settlement between Sun and
Microsoft: Scott McNealy's keynote speeches just got a lot duller. The
Sun CEO has made a career of his stand-up routine over the years,
entertaining thousands with such classic zingers as calling Windows
the "giant hairball"; Active Directory, "Captive Directory"; and .Net,
"Dot Not" or "Not Yet." And, in case of computer crashes, "Call
1-800-CTL-ALT-DEL."

04/01/2005 05:24 PMJust foolishness. The XML Binary Characterization Working Group has
issued their
f
inal report which recommends (surprise, surprise) that the W3C
produce a “Binary XML” specification. Elliotte Rusty Harold
nails it. I
don’t care if anyone wants to go off and produce their own data
interchange format, binary or not, open or not, standardized or not,
mapped to XML or not; as long as they don’t call it XML. “Binary
XML” is an oxymoron. And I should point out that the people at Sun
who are building a binary data format with a mapping to XML are
calling it
something
else entirely. These Binary-XML people are charging headlong onto
the top of a very long, very steep, very slippery slope.
[Update:
Further joy. I see that this poorly-labelled table asserts that XML prevents both
“processing efficiency” and “forward compatibility”. Glad to
hear it.]We can finally joke about beheadings...
