Comment Re:Only 53% of South Koreans claim any religion (Score 1) 286

The only thing theyre "behind" in India / China is evangelism. Theyre not exactly the sorts of countries where you come out and say "hey Im a Christian"; the government and culture tend to look rather poorly on it.

American Evangelical churches have money to burn, and are mostly the ones, who are behind this sort of nonsense. This sort of stuff is happening in many other countries too, including India, China (albeit in deep secracy), and many other Asian/African countries.

Comment Wow (Score 5, Interesting) 284

Wow, ssh tunneling, and a few command line options , and screen, that's your ultimate SSH guide ?
I am impressed, not!

How about
- ssh master connection, for svn+ssh ?
- ssh agent forwarding
- opening ssh ports using knocking
- auto blacklisting with something like sshblack

I think the above are more advanced options than the ones mentioned in the article, no ?

What's with all the negative comments ?
My initial impression seems to be, this is very fast as compared to 7.0.1. Good work Firefox team, some of us still appreciate your hard work.

Now only if my company would switch from the horrible HP Quality Center to Jira, I would be set.

Comment Pascal v/s C (Score 2) 487

When I first started learning Pascal, I had a real hard time wrapping my head around the concept of a Pointer, and struggled with pointers and related concepts like linked-lists etc. throught out the time I had to use Pascal. I was using the Schaum's book on Pascal.

But under 'C' it felt somehow very natural and easy to understand, never had a problem with 'C' pointers, and data structures. R.I.P. DMR, your book really opened my eyes to the wonderful world of computing.

Who modded this insightful ?
As if every single person in the world has a unique name, that they can trademark and sue everyone else for using it without their consent...(unless you're named parah salin of course), Secondly are you supposed to monitor all social networking websites to check if some one else is using the same name as yours.
