I think speech should be free, but seriously, how much worse off would we be if we didn't have Nazi sympathizers and other hate mongers?

There's no reason you can't have your cake and eat it too. We have virtual filesystems like proc, why not a 'registry' filesystem? People will still be able to modify config files to their heart's content, with all the benefits of a 'registry'.

I agree. I'm nearly positive they've already sold at least 10 phones, so they're leaps and bounds ahead of OpenMoko.

Yea, this is bullshit. There aren't any tech companies in Massachusetts that Google is competing with for employees. None at all.

Only if you're reading this from 2007.

What the hell, this isn't interesting, it's funny. Moderators these days...

'Company-specific knowledge' is covered by NDAs, which are universally (in the US and most other countries) recognized. If you don't want them to leave at all, compete.

The fact that people still think hashes are reversible makes it pretty clear that they need more than "no, you can't do that".

No hash, even the very worst, is reversible. The reason for this is that an infinite number of input strings will produce the same, finite, output string. See http://stackoverflow.com/questions/330207/how-come-md5-hash-values-are-not-reversible for more information.

OpenSolaris is primarily CDDL.

Lately? I think you're new here...

"VM = interpreter. No matter how much marketing people may want to convince you otherwise. If it's not native code, it's not run by native CPU, but by a virtual machine, it means it's interpreted." Nonsense. A just-in-time compiler compiles the bytecode to native code at runtime. Claiming this is "not native code" is BS.
