OT Astricon/Digium Beach Ball Mailing
Just an FYI for Digium. I received a mailing today from you guys which was nice. The price of mailing was ~$1.60 and inside was an inflatable beach ball. Cool, but I tried to blow up the beach ball and the the seam where the part opens to inflate the ball was not connected to the ball whatsoever, so it went right in the trash. I wonder if the sick heat had anything to do with it, was mine just

Orwell's 1984 from Freedesktop,org?
...Originally, packagekit, which is a GUI package manager, wanted to allow all users to install anything without a password. When a bug report was filed, the developer mentioned that they didn't care how Unix had done things in the past. This made the front page of slashdot, to almost universal derision, and RH changed it. In Fedora, I believe it still allows any user to update an installed signed package without asking for authentication. They tried to do that in RH as well, but a bug report was filed, and it was changed. In my less than humble opinion, this is how it should be. A non-privileg...

mysql dates
does anyone know of a way to make the date_helper deal with mysql dates with 00 values in them? I have lots of dates that are like the following: 2005-04-00 2005-00-00 and I need to set null values in a date_select for elements that are 00. These are valid dates in mysql. In the absence of an immediate solution to the above, I''ve been trying to find out how InstanceTag.new works so I can

TO SYMMETRY AND ASYMMETRY-----NOW ADD SUPERSYMMETRY
..., for anybody, who is smart enough to employ set-to-set calculations. Whenever the Washington bureaucrats discover that every "Top Secret" file coded in 120-bit encryption has been hacked by an outsider with 1,024-bit decryption and coredumped on the Internet for worldwide inspection and derision----it's too late! I give up! I'd be happy to discuss hypercubes, set-to-set calculation or any aspect of supersymmetrical encryption/decryption with anyone who can jolt the Homeland Defense boys to attention.

RForum Software Sucks?
(Donning flameproof suit) Am I the only person who thinks that the Ruby forum software sucks? E.g. search only for a word. Can''t search for new posts, can''t search by date, topic list doesn''t indicate when I''ve already read a post, there can be several independent replies to a topic, just to name a few. There are lots (admittedly not Ruby based) of good

Calendar date picker for use with rails.
Howdy folks, As I was putting together a rough form for a rails app, I got to thinking how much smoother (in my siytuation) a little calendar widget would be than the default date picker selects. Does anyone know if such a thing exists ? I suspect it would have to be somewhat designed with rails in mind to populate the right kind of post params for convenient use at the controller end.

"Flavors of Security Through Obscurity"
This was posted not too long ago on sci.crypt... Enjoy... I think the most relevant information is near the top, but it''s all quite good... :-) -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- There is no intrinsic difference between algorithm and data, the same information can be viewed as data in one context and as algorithm in another. Why then do so many people claim that encryption algorithms

FAQ, Documentation, How-to, etc
Nov 19, 2003 To Everyone on this list... What's been suggested for a FAQ and other "much needed information" for such a _HIGHLY_ technical software product has been proven thousands of times in the past few months. Even an untrained monkey can see that, including many geeks. Those that are against it are the very _few_ arrogant self-centered egotistical few that think their middle
