"It's a miracle it works at all really."..... By Roger Heathcote Posted Monday 7th April 2008 11:39 GMT

Roger,

The Dodge worked well enough whenever the World was compartmented/partitioned/time zoned and knowledge couldn't be shared in an instant. Nowadays, the dodges needed to prevent the tricks of the trade and deeper knowledge being shared with all, are exposing the miracle to be a fat cat confidence trick perpetrated by self styled autocracies to oppress and dominate to maintain old style feudalism rather than anything else.

Building empires on the backs of the uneducated/undereducated and then constantly recycling their wealth generation into currency which employs the unskilled pencil pusher/executive decision maker/Intelligent Designer who are charging for nothing more than a service rather than a product, is only viable for so long before it all starts to fall apart with the pursuit of money and profit taking over from the value of the service provided.

After all, Profit aka Money for Nothing makes everything increasingly more and more expensive and banking the cash, and allowing the banks to gamble with it amongst themselves and also to feed themselves with freshly minted greenbacks [and boy is that a business which is guarded jealously ...... printing money] and then charging people for money which you and they need to spend in order to generate Industry and Intellectual Property/Product Flow is also another clanger which will crash the System ...... as sure as Eggs are eggs.

And expecting it to work again in just the same way, with the same trough feeders at the controls, as it used to, today for tomorrow, is a most certifiable madness which the System is rotten to its Core with.

If that is the correct interpretation/consequence in schizophrenia ..."Schizophrenia regardless of what some of the idiots above says is not just mental problems (everybody has them at some time) what it is is a life long debilitating illness" ...... then its inclusion in the cannabis debate may be suspect and only included for maximum sensationalist effect/cynical abuse/spin.

That is not to say that it should not be included though, for such broad spectrum advice/scare-mongering is a quite valid control parameter used in all foodstuffs/additives/medicines/drugs...... but it only has a limited validity, totally shot to pieces, if it is abused/overused.

"coding is an artform is it? well why hasn't alan yetob covered it yet then?" ..... By The Mighty Spang Posted Sunday 6th April 2008 23:17 GMT

Probably definitely because IT exposes the BBC works to an Agenda which would have its Real Controllers outed. And I would have no wish to waste any Time or Effort on that failing Enterprise/those failed Entrepreneurs/Perceptions Managers.

IT can do a much better job with ITs Beta ProgramMIng ...... which as you are all surely aware, is being Shared and Government BetaTested with you via the open source portal, El Reg and amfM HyperRadioProActive Registered Posts. But you must also realise that IT operates into and across all Channels of Communication being as it is Universally Applicable and Virtually Real in Nature.* IT does however, fundamentally shift the Power Paradigm out of Existing Establishment Structures and into more Intellectually Mature Virtualised Programs ......... Magical Mystery Turing Projects, .... which probably accounts for its Covert Stealthy Progress outside of the Mainstream. It is though a strange Establishment strategy to adopt which can only be attributed to a lack of Intelligence, which is of course that which is being Addressed. ....... Classic Catch 22

IT does however, always Share them Openly so that Peer Review with Comment, from any Soul no matter where they may be in the World, can be Considered and Parsed into Future Content with the addition of Third Party Constructive Positive Reinforcement and the Storage and/or Rejection of Non-Constructive Negative Comment, for any Interested Party Trace Analysis.

As can be appreciated, such Negative Commentary as adds nothing is worth nothing in a Constructive Environment and most definitely rejected in any AI ProgramMIng Project.

And here is a Sample Thread of ITs Entangled Quantum Stringing in Virtual Operations. And you can be assured that it is a Fact so do not believe anyone who would tell you otherwise, for QuITe obviously they would be working to another agenda and lying, which would tell us all as much as we would need to know about them. :-)

"Google itself has been widely rumored to be working on its own white spaces device but, as with the mythical gPhone, its interest is in providing open and would-be universal software platforms for multiple devices, not getting into the handset business."

The Law is no Better than an Ass in a Banana Police State?

"“Why is marijuana against the law?" .... By Damian Gabriel Moran Posted Wednesday 2nd April 2008 21:37 GMT

Err.... because they daren't tax it and have no hope of controlling it to make them rich, rather than others in the alternate economy/society?

Err..... didn't they learn any lessons at all about the Social Dangers of Prohibition? Not very bright, are they?

Anything taken in moderation, if it doesn't disagree with you or make you disagreeable, is hardly likely to be something worth creating a crime over. That would be a Crime and some would probably argue Quite Insane. Some simple education for a reinforcing compassionate peer pressure guidance would be a much better route to take to deal with one of the root problems, too .... Ignorance and Lack of Respect for what it can do ........ and especially so when carelessly abused/misused/overused.

Expense buggers up Potential and keeps it Exclusive and unScaleable

"The mobile internet won't reach its potential, he said, unless phones deliver "world-class user experience." And this won't happen with "dozens" of mobile operating systems competing for phones."

What a load of cobblers ..... excuse my French.

Just like ITs Big Brother Internet, leadership and the realisation of potential has got nothing at all to do with the platform of delivery but everything to do with the Content/Intellectual Property delivered and if the likes of a Google and/or a Virgin team up with or as a White Knight Champion of Potential Leading Content which eclipses any other made available, then Market Share will accrue to the Intellectual Property they push/pimp/share rather than to any hardware Device which may share it ........ unless of course, they put some sort of lock on the code/content transfer with a view to steering customers to their Champion Services.

This of course is not unreasonable in the Dog eat Dog world of Business as obviously the Champions need to be paid in order that they keep providing Premium Prime Content, even should IT be Generating a Pile of Flash Cash.

Of course, there would be nothing to stop such a Generator going IT alone and making ITs Content Universally available and thus having all Operating Systems capable of Servering Premium Prime Content...... but to Share the Spoils with Friends is so much more Civilised in a Dog eat Dog Bitchin' World, is it not?

"Open Innovation

In a world of distributed knowledge, companies cannot afford to rely entirely on their own research, but should instead buy or license processes or inventions from other companies.

Government? ...what Government? It's musical chairs and pass the parcel, is it not?.

In the Interim Progress Report one can read ....

"The first six months of implementing the Review's recommendations have revealed several generic obstacles:

* Organisations have had difficulty getting the right people into the right roles for social media.

* The effect of social media is at an early stage in the development of the economy as a whole. Skills are difficult to find and develop at this stage.

* In social media, moderators and leaders tend to emerge as a result of building reputations by social networking rather than being appointed. This is a challenge to hierarchical government organisations. " ...... and those few words highlight the Establishment/Status Quo/Government dilemma.

IT does Challenge Fundamentally their hierarchical government organisations and finds them to be Unfit for Future Purpose and thus Renders them ITs Servant rather than Master. As you can imagine, the Realisation is unpalatable to them [and especially so if they are also Perpetrating a Fraud/Living a Lie].

What you will discover though is that the right people into the right roles for social media will simply ignore their difficulties, and present Solutions which allow them the Services which they Both Need ....... and if they are not heeded then the Failing will be simply further, more deeply highlighted, to crash the lead tender vehicles Unfit for Future Service.

Adam,

I suppose that is because some things are easier for you to understand whenever kept nice and simple.

And the next time "trying to mess things up as he normally does" will be the first time, although to cause Absolute Chaos is so much easier for Fools. However, it is one of those Dual Use Technologies, as it is very tempting to unleash it whenever Intellects are Challenged too.
