What does it take to file an anti-trust complaint with the EU? Is Opera's filing against Microsoft available?
Tous les philosophes médiévaux ne sont pas ecclésiastiques, faut pas exagérer :) Dante, Wycliffe, Avicennes, Al-Farabi, ...
...Al-Razi, Al-Kindi, Abélard (avant castration), Averroes... Tu tombes dans l'excès inverse!

One of the many reasons why you never, ever want to use anything from MPEG: http://bit.ly/bAybiP A must read if you ever watch or make video

Dante a écrit De Monarchia, traité de philosophie politique; Averroes était andalou comme plusieurs autres.
Je ne dis pas ça pour nier le rôle positif de l'Église; simplement elle n'est pas le end all and be all de la pensée médiévale
The guy to ask is @therealmaxf, and your comments are welcome on the list!
28% de 200.000 ça fait quand même du monde que cette proposition pourrait aider.
Not just H.264 — most of the MPEG stack, including MPEG-2
Bravo à @slatefrance qui réussi à citer Lévinas en parlant de ChatRoulette http://www.slate.fr/story/16803/chatroulette
Can Weave work with non-FF browsers? I tend to use different UAs in different places
Right, but at this point it's mostly source and summary docs. Any plans to standardise?

@james_clark It's essentially a Unix box on which you don't have to configure wifi and USB all the time. It shouldn't prove too surprising.
Ça a l'air intéressant #netexplorateur, ils ont besoin d'experts? :)
Invite-moi, on ira boire des canons au bistro du Sénat :)
Tu veux dire ce réseau social là? http://bit.ly/9MXRQV :)
Tu peux l'interroger sur IDéNum versus OpenID et autres options existantes?
Typing my XML Prague paper as fast as I can so @jirkakosek can typeset it — fingers burning, I need a neural interface!
Tu ne sponsorises pas le sport, tu paies pour voir quelqu'un galérer, et après l'argent va à une bonne cause. Double bonus!

Writing papers for conferences is hard! But the @xmlprague people are so nice that they shame me into doing it. Write, write, write, write!

#xmlprague paper finished! Fingers on fire... Will proofread in the morning and send. Yeehaw!
#cdp je m'en sers un fois par semaine pour rigoler, et l'ergonomie est tellement ratée que j'en ai mal au crâne. À refaire....
Does it render text in simpler SVGs? Does it have a font? Does it work with inches usually? Nothing else jumps up...
And now I've sent my #xmlprague paper in! Thanks @marcosc for the review! Come to the conference, it *always* rocks.
Not quite Inbox Zero, but I'm back to below 100 for both pro and personal boxes (not counting mailing lists of course :).
Interesting: Google Software Update Agent connects to IPv6 addresses.
La Check-List de @lemondefr parle toujours de sites en Flash comme si c'était un plus. Coincés dans les années 90?
Using a word with the wrong definition in mind isn't a grammatical error, but rather semantic. #pedantpolice
Facebook à lui seul reçoit 6 millions de photos par jour. Vos chiffres sont trop bas!

Je me demande si on pourrait faire un site de météo crowdsourcé rien qu'avec Twitter. Ça marcherait au moins pour la neige :)
Bah. This assumes Rails3 -> rails requires i18n -> i18n gem not found. Why can't anyone even approach the quality of CPAN & CPAN.pm? #grumpy
Has anyone used Crowbar http://simile.mit.edu/wiki/Crowbar ? I'm thinking of adapting it to make offline ReSpec possible. Thoughts? #lazyweb

Playing with JetPack. Confused to see my notifications arrive several minutes after I ran the script that generated them...
Flash always crashes, and any browser at that. It's best you find a way to disable it.
You tried innerHTML?
Courage, on est tous avec vous!
Can you point me to the source? Something's fishy there...
get the result as html, not xml in ajaxForm(), and then insert it with jQuery's .html() — should work I'd hope!
That's normal, which is why I'm suggesting to use text, not XML (or call importNode, but careful how you mix it with jQuery...)
Not true, look at the dataType options in http://bit.ly/cFUwtc XML in browsers is hit and miss, really :)
jQuery.get("getXHTML.pl", function (data) { $("#container").html(data); }); should really just work, even with extra bells!
OH "plh and tlr are the most prestigious TLAs in W3C"
Usurpateur! Il n'y a que moi! Tu ne lui as pas demandé quel était son prénom?

Hah, funny, I wrote "onlick" too just an hour ago (and then spent a while wondering why it didn't work).
In many countries you have access to Wikipedia but nothing else (as is the case here in France).
Since it's a lifetime wireless connection you only pay for once, I suspect that's the reason, yes.
A 30k flw c'est de la curiosité, à 3k c'est de la proximité. On clique plus facilement.
When I say "awesome" too much, I have this thing I do: I stop saying it and be awesome instead. True story.
Windows Phone 7 looks impressive http://bit.ly/cpfVUO but if it ships without syncing with Macs it's DOA. I wonder if it does #widgets.
The official Windows 7 Phone site is down... http://www.windowsphone7series.com/
Opera Mini already serves more people than there are iPhones in the world, I think they can handle it.
9€? C'est du vol. Autour de chez moi (XIè/XXè) il y en a plusieurs proposant la même formule à moins de 6€...
Is there a decent authentication solution that works with Rails v3?
Yeah, that would be the ideal solution, but atm they announce partial network sync (no music or video), the rest windows-only...
Au pot de la @fondapol hier soir, des discussions très intéressantes, à refaire!
If it didn't foster some level of hostility, it wouldn't be a good @simonstl article :)
J'ai trouvé cet article de Télérama pas mal du tout http://bit.ly/9lTXs4 Je deviens vieux ou il a été publié par hasard?

A raytracer in XQuery. Gotta love it. http://www.xqsharp.com/xqsharp/samples/raytracer/ (via @michaelhkay)
You should have it in Prague next year!
You're right, as a (now former) Things user I share your concern that @culturedcode doesn't seem to care about securing it.
@vpecresse Merci pour le tract dans ma boîte sur laquelle est inscrit "Pas de publicité"!
What's the general feeling on site? Defeatist or hopeful?
I know (and like) the policies, but I was more wondering about how the base is feeling, with it being a tough election and all.
Bah. Wanted to go to bed early. Started Writing. Now it's 3am. Damn you interesting stuff to think about!
Be careful though, last time I had a pre-flight nap I woke up ten hours later, long after my flight had arrived :)
Alarm clock? Phone ringing? That's what I use when I have trouble going to sleep...

LiMO is just trying to find reason to continue existing — no one cares about them.
Heh, a Jetpack extension I played with two weeks ago and uninstalled since is still sending occasional Growl notifications saying "test"!

You should hold sessions in Paris, see if it works.
Android manifests are bizarre: all elements in null namespace, almost all attributes in a defined ns (android:label, android:icon, etc.).

It gets worse if you play with <base href>. Shame, it would be really useful.
10.6 was the first time that I upgraded my Mac OS other than with new hardware. It will be the last. About as stable as Windows 98.

Sexy! Little bug: it doesn't work when you've scrolled down (the menu is positioned at the top of the page).
@ndw I betcha it doesn't! Scroll. Click on navigate. Close navigate. Scroll elsewhere. Reclick. Oops. Also, scroll while navigate open. Oops
Saw Synecdoche, New York. Madly inventive at times, very sad.
I don't have time to look at into the details, but I guess it's because you're positioning it "absolute" instead of "fixed".
I have fond memories of Win98, it's the last MS OS that actually worked, even though it did crash lots.
One from Many: VISA and the Rise of Chaordic Organization, Dee Hock. Great story, essential questions. This book really speaks to me.
I remember getting into a spat with you over that very zombie, and frankly I likewise can't seem to figure out why oh why...
The Flex source isn't the most readable piece of code, either.
Are you coming back to #xmlprague again this year? I'll try not to jump around too much :)
