In a biting post to the Gnome usability mailing list, Torvalds said 'This "users are idiots, and are confused by functionality" mentality of Gnome is a disease.' Later, in another post, he added 'Your "fixes" are actually removing capabilities that you had, because they were "too confusing to the user"'. |

OpenOffice.org shows open source's failings? (Dec 13 2005 20:35 GMT) - In an opinion piece at The Guardian, OpenOffice.org user Andrew Brown challenges the belief that open source automatically makes software better. Citing a range of bugs and problems with the office suite, Brown argues that the only reason OOo is improving is due to the involvement of large companies like Sun -- not because of the community. Is he right, or is OOo unique and incomparable to other open source projects? |

Thrust Reversers a Non-Starter (Dec 13 2005 20:34 GMT) - Stories such as this keep making mention that the thrust reversers on the Chicago plane that overran the runway at Midway did not deploy properly, according to the pilot in command. That's really neither here nor there. Thrust reversers, in perfect conditions, might reduce the required landing length by a maximum of 25%. Conditions are never perfect. In all likelihood, assuming the pilot is correct, the additional time the thrust reversers might have been in place would have caused the plane to crash into the road traffic less hard, but it wouldn't have stopped this crash. |
