"[ubuntu] is the first Linux-based system I have encountered that is tolerable enough for me to use for everyday work. That is a great achievement. But Ubuntu is still rife with design flaws, some of them severe." – matthew thomas, "my first 48h enduring ubuntu 5.04", via henso.com.

d'accord. especially with ubuntu on an ibook.

i hope many developers, especially those of gaim, firefox et al. read this (and generously will accept matthew's own flaws in observation, description and knowledge). because they could still improve the basics of these really very nice pieces of software.

"JoSQL (SQL for Java Objects) provides the ability for a developer to apply a SQL statement to a collection of Java Objects. JoSQL provides the ability to search, order and group ANY Java objects and should be applied when you want to perform SQL-like queries on a collection of Java Objects."

For example, to find all the HTML files that have been modified in December 2004:

SELECT * FROM java.io.File WHERE name $LIKE "%.html" AND lastModified BETWEEN toDate('01-12-2004') AND toDate('31-12-2004')

cloße, but no ßigar.

the text-transform: upper; css definition is very nice. however, it's not very well supported for special cases (like the german ß ligature) by neither iexplorer nor firefox, for example:

firefox is großartig!

firefox is großartig!*

* internet explorer will display "FIREFOX IS GROßARTIG" and firefox itself will drop the last character and show "FIREFOX IS GROSSARTI"

fortunately, a simple additional space will fix the ß-tranformation at least for firefox:

firefox is großartig !
