It's the little things that make it. (Nov 30 2004 23:30 GMT) - The current iteration of development on a project at work is code review, refactoring, cleanup, and bug fixes only. This is a nice break from hard care implementation with really tight deadlines, I must say. So over the next few days I'm looking in depth into the code documentation. Yes, it should be done as you write, I know that, but we really couldn't afford the time (and knew we were scheduling it for right now anyway). So |

Review of 'XML Hacks' (Nov 30 2004 23:30 GMT) - TBR writes "Like the other books in this series, 'XML Hacks' provides a wide range of Tips, Tricks, Techniques and other good things (not all of them beginning with T). Featuring a veritable who's who of well-known XML authors and experts, (including Micah Dubinko, Rick Jeliffe, Jason Hunter, Michael Smith as well as editor and lead author Michael Fitzgerald), this is a book that is grounded in day to day practice. Organised into seven chapters, the book opens with a series of introductory hacks that look at dealing with XML documents, from how to look at an XML document in a browser to how to style a document with CSS to testing documents on-line and off-line. The final hack in this chapter shows how to use Java to process XML documents. No previous Java knowledge is assumed, and the hack walks through the process of how to install and configure Java so that jar files can be used from the command-line. |

www.timmyjnr.id.au - site review please (Nov 30 2004 23:29 GMT) - Quote: "on the homepage, is grey rather than the normal background, with titles in white. Was it this that you were suggesting be white instead?" Yes thats where I mean, think Adrian means same area also. For example- Not sure how you would do the titles, but as you mentioned maybe these could be grey. |

What you voted for, Part II (Nov 30 2004 23:29 GMT) - …many of the losses that the citizens of the United States are suffering at the hands of the Bush Administration are quiet, sordid little behind-the-scene affairs that don’t necessarily affect major segments of the population and therefore don’t get much publicity. The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB), the final arbiter of disputes between the common working guy and gal and their employers, has been a significant venue in this game and now, reversing long-standing policy for the third time this year, has moved by a partisan 3 – 2 vote to effectively strip temporary workers of their union bargaining rights…... |

Scott Thill's Take (Nov 30 2004 23:28 GMT) - Thill is Salon's columnist on independent publishing. He starts a recent column with this wrap-up of the post-election state of affairs in Bushland, which strikes me as a concise summary statement for anyone who has had their head buried under the pillows for the past month: "America recently decided -- and on this point, let's be crystal clear -- that it indeed wanted another four years of George Bush. And even if my man Greg Palast is utterly convinced that the 2004 election, as in 2000, was decided ahead of time by pervasive voter fraud and election commission corruption in more than one state, this election shouldn't have been close at all to begin with. Bush is, without a doubt, the worst president America has ever had, something it should have been able to figure out if it weren't so deeply involved in the alternate reality fed to it by the scandal-ridden New York Times, bankrupt network television, MTV, and so-called news outlets like CNN, MSNBC and Fox. |

Netscape FireIE? (Nov 30 2004 23:28 GMT) - According to /., AOL has started beta testing their new Firefox-based version of Netscape, and it contains a little surprise: the new browser allows you to choose between Gecko and Trident, the rendering engines used in Firefox and IE, respectively. As usual, I'm ambivalent. The geek in me says 'cool'. |

Beauty Is Pain (Nov 30 2004 23:28 GMT) - Are you a guy? Have you ever wondered why girls do sometimes whine a bit more than guys? Well, I recently realized why. And it is actually not just because we have to put up with you guys. Last two lunch discussions have for some strange reason involved hair growth in one form or another. |
