Computer Technical Notes

當笑話看多之後…

笑話看一次兩次還會笑,但是同樣的話題不斷重複出現時,你就不會想去理他們了。

喔,我指的是「這次是So-net惡搞無名?」這篇。

等下要做的事情先寫出來好了,以免到時候都沒做 =_=

  • 洗澡 (…)
  • 用 XMLHttpRequest 把一部份的架構實做出來,最重要的部分是先將 XMLHttpRequest Proxy 生出來,至於認證與 custom CSS 甚至 custom template 可以晚點在做。

Eric Raymond 對 GPL 與 BSD license 的看法

上看到 對於 的看法:Eric Raymond talks about GPL and BSD licenses

原文在 Eric Raymond talks about GPL and BSD licenses 這篇文章裡,這段說明了他的理念:

Basically, we don’t need GPL. It’s based on the belief that open source software is weak and needs to be protected. With it, we continue injuring ourselves, cutting ourselves from the economic benefits of BSD license.

簡單來說,他認為在 Open Source Community 裡, 好。

PS:如果你不知道 是什麼人,請參考 的說明:

便宜的墨水匣

Testing Cheaper Printer Ink,轉錄了 的報導:Entrepreneurs Offer Cheaper Printer Ink

事實上現在印表機很便宜根本賺不到什麼錢,都是靠墨水匣在賺。有些公司更是直接光明正大的想勒索你,像是文中提到了目前這些廠商的惡行:

At the same time, the big companies are getting stingier with the amount of ink they are putting into each cartridge. For example, when H-P eliminated one cartridge that had 42 milliliters of ink and cost $29.99, it replaced it with another that costs $19.99 but has only 19 milliliters of ink.

雖然貴,但是目前這些雜牌的相容墨水匣列印品質還是沒有辦法跟原廠的比:

But cheaper cartridges are far from perfect. The price is often considerably lower, but consumer watchdogs frequently decry the quality of alternative ink, complaining that they can result in streaky printouts. “Shop around for the best cartridge prices but be wary of off-brands; we have found brand-name cartridges to have better print quality overall,” Consumer Reports recently cautioned.

我想到之前 好像也有推出相容墨水匣 (還是碳粉夾?) 搞過 ?怎麼沒拿 的試看看?(我記得還有「如果你用我們的墨水匣造成你的印表機故障,我們賠你一台同等級的」的宣示?)

Update:「夾」->「匣」

Update:「享樂所擬」->「想勒索你」,錯字滿天飛 :~

IBM 的超級電腦

報導了 自己擁有一台強大的超級電腦了:Largest Privately Owned Supercomputer

依據 的數據,這台超級電腦的速度是目前第一名:TOP500 List for November 2004。(資料好像有點舊,我記得前陣子有看到破 100 teraflops 的新聞,不過我不太確定…)

Anyway,不管怎樣,這台的速度現在應該還在全球前五名,所以…

雖然很機車,不過是事實 :p
