Today’s evil headache was caused by something as simple – yet annoying – as a two HTML form elements having the same name (but different types and uses in the form). The lesson learned is that if a field in a form is submitted but contains nothing – check if another object in the form [...]

A man and his sister, who sent unsolicited junk email to millions of America Online customers, have been convicted in the first felony prosecution of distributors of spam in the US. Finally, the US is beginning to put spammers behind bars, thank you.
To Mac or not
Nov 4
So, I’ve been wondering if I should by a Mac. Windows works for me, but causes a fairly large number of headaches. Linux is nice for server use, but I’m not nerdish enough to get a desktop running. With the many positive reviews, switching stories and others I was thinking of going Mac.
