11/4    I am touring my Nephew around campus on Monday, is there some things
        that he should not miss? He is a Conservative, does anyone know how
        to hook up with the campus Republicans or any group like that? Any
        fraternity members willing to give him a house tour? -ausman

4/02    We use Perforce at work for revision control. It seems to work okay.
        Lately, a lot of the newer developers are saying that Perforce
        sucks and we should switch to Mercurial or Git. I have done some
        searching on the Internet and some others have this opinion. Added
        advantage is that Mercurial and Git are free. However, there would
        be some work to switch for the sysadmins and the developers.

        \_ Soda doesn't have a real IPv6 address.  The IPv6 addresses you see
           in ifconfig are just link-local addresses; any IPv6-capable machine
           will autogenerate these, whether or not it's connected to an IPv6

5/26    Is it correct to call someone the daughter of Puerto Rican

4/9     I've been reading articles about piracy and it's not really an issue
        of there being just two dozen ships to patrol a large area. It
        only really takes one ship, if it's the right ship (an aircraft
        carrier). The Navy should be using helicopters and ship-based
        aircraft (e.g., Harriers) to patrol and respond to these incidents
        and then you only need a couple of destroyers to perform

Email this Story Oct 3, 8:53 PM (ET) LONDON (Reuters) - Imagine being able to check instantly whether or not statements made by politicians were correct. boss Eric Schmidt believes the Internet will offer within five years. Politicians have yet to appreciate the impact of the online world, which will also affect the outcome of elections, Schmidt said in an interview with the Financial Times published on Wednesday. He predicted that "truth predictor" software would, within five years, "hold politicians to account." People would be able to use programs to check seemingly factual statements against historical data to see to see if they were correct. The chairman and chief executive of the world's most popular Internet search engine was speaking during a visit to Britain this week, where he met British Prime Minister Tony Blair and spoke at the opposition Conservative Party's annual conference. "Many of the politicians don't actually understand the phenomenon of the Internet very well," Schmidt told the Financial Times. often what they learn about the Internet they learn from their staffs and their children." The advent of television taught political leaders the art of the sound bite. "The Internet has largely filled a role of funding for politicians ... Writing in the Sun tabloid, the Google boss said the online world has empowered ordinary people with the ability to challenge governments, the media and business. "It has broken down the barriers that exist between people and information, effectively democratizing access to human knowledge," Schmidt wrote.
