jews-

I just got my second notice about my pending economic stimulus act rebate and saw to my dismay that it divulges the last 4 of my SSN. They mask out all the least-secret parts but leave the last 4 digits. Lame! Look for this format on the right-hand-side of the letter inside the very conspicuous envelope: XXX-XX-1234

One of the annoying things about VS Express (other than it for some reason not saving my user preferences) is that there is not an easy way to debug nunit tests from within the UI. There is also no way to attach to a process to debug, which is going to limit asp.net development utility. Maybe VS 2008 Express is improved in this regard? I’ll download and see.

I am really getting tired of seeing the male response to crap like this stupid video that Michelle Malkin created involve sexual domination rhetoric against women. It debases the speaker and taints the debate and opponents of Malkin by proxy.

I’ll predict right now that Bruce Schneier will also blog about this.

I had to turn this into an open letter response. I saw several of these messages being posted to blogs without any response. Most likely because it is so inflammatory and haphazard.

Lieberman is a wanker for many other reasons than this. But people do love to blame the faceless, nameless hacker before they exhaust their own likely culpability for an incident so whether it is purely political or the IT blame-game, it’s typical.

Moveon.org has a petition to media outlets to avoid a repeat of the recent ABC “news” “debate” which involved spending most of the time on inane “gotcha” kinds of topics and nothing on substantive issues. It was a horrid debate and was resoundly chided by most all critics.

I was incensed when the democratic senate passed the horrid FISA bill. It’s good that congress is actually standing up for what is good though and holding a tough line. I just wish the senate would get on board and at least do something, even if it will be vetoed.
