Endo 26-Jan-2012 [6556] | It looks reliable to me about technical stuff, like network protocols etc. It may not reliable about history or science because there are subjective ideas or uncertain facts.. |
Geomol 26-Jan-2012 [6557] | I agree, Pekr. I use Wikipedia a lot the same way. To get a quick overview, and as Reichart say, to be able to begin to ask the right questions. I also often use the external links and references at the bottom of most pages. |

Henrik 1-Feb-2012 [6560] | Regarding Wikipedia, I just finished this interesting podcast, where Dan Benjamin and John Siracusa discuss Wikipedia and why they think it's built on the wrong foundation. Siracusa was misquoted on an article that he wrote for ArsTechnica, but was unable to change it incorrect citation in Wikipedia (it has since the podcast aired been changed): http://5by5.tv/hypercritical/52 Starts at 72 minutes and 30 seconds. |
Henrik 19-Feb-2012 [6561] | Speaking of VLC, VLC2.0 was just released, with an entirely new UI (at least in the Mac version): http://www.videolan.org/vlc/ |
Gabriele 20-Feb-2012 [6562] | Yeah, the old UI was horrible... this one is... well... what is the word for "worse than horrible"? |
Gregg 20-Feb-2012 [6563] | Abominable? ;-) |
Pekr 22-Feb-2012 [6564x2:last] | OSNews "tweeted" about the new language for web development - Opa - http://opalang.org/ |
Some usefull UI concepts, which might be forgotten with the decline of WebOS ... unfortunately WebOS is going under the Apache open-source wings, so hopefully some good ideas are going to be reused elsewhere - http://ignorethecode.net/blog/2012/02/21/steal_webos_features/ | |
