@mdenny Worpress and Drupal don't reall have the same functionality though... they're both good at different things
-
@mdenny HTML4.01 is still the best, unless you prefer XHTML (as I do), then XHTML1.1 is the bomb!
-
@mdenny TinyMCE. More well-known, and I find the UX nicer/lighter.
-
@mdenny I think it's transformative enough. A judge may disagree.
-
@mdenny Indeed, clearly derivitive. I believe some derivitives should be protected, like this one. We'll see what courts say.
-
designmeme: @mdenny @singpolyma Consider allusions in film. Not possible if you can copyright things the way the.. http://tinyurl.com/cuuzn3
-
@mdenny @_singpolyma is also owned by me. BTW, parody is *not* protected in Canada.
-
@mdenny @designmeme thinks that the artist has added value not present in the image it is clearly based on. I agree.
-
@singpolyma keep in mind that adding value is not at all the legal test. :)
-
@mdenny Not sure, because it's relatively subjective. I guess that's why courts decide, but they get it wrong too often.
-
@tieguy I'm aware of that. I was having trouble making clear what I know is allowed and what I think should be. In this case it's borderline
-
@mdenny depends on the AP. Some corps are nice about licensing, some are downright impossible. Agree with when in doubt, ask.
-
@mdenny it seemed reasonable to publicize at the time. Of course, "designers" are a loosely defined category in the first place.
-
@mdenny never said design/UI is unimportant, only that implementation matters as well, but some people seem to think that pretty crud is ok
-
@mdenny that sucks. Perhaps I'm happy I don't play ;)
-
@mdenny fixed-width is fundamentally broken. There are no "minimum screen resolutions".
-
@mdenny Without CSS you should *definitely* be legible/not garbage. It's mandatory. Without JS too.
-
@mdenny pearl or perl?
-
@mdenny it's sillyness like that which caused my to install tinyproxy on my home PC
-
@mdenny what's with the prefixed '.'? Is that to prevent the #fixreplies problem?
-
@mdenny what do you like about them?
-
@mdenny indeed. I read books on my phone. Dedicated readers are silly :)
-
@singpolyma ah, I'll be down soon.
-
@singpolyma possible hints for what's up with Tron? http://www.program-glitch-esc.net/
