Is a two-year beta really a test? Bloggers, developers argue over whether companies like Google stretch the beta concept too far.

Keith posted an interesting article countering the hype generated by Google Suggest & GMail - Google Suggest and GMail are a step backwards I think there are two things which makes Google Suggest interesting.

Just google for "Will I go to hell?" and select the "I am feeling lucky" button. This may be a good avenue of redemption for so many tortured souls ;) For the curious this Hell is a creation by Kenneth Aronson, a Topanga, CA based artist, who sells art in Santa Monica gallery.

I'm in need of a program that will take a number as input and use said input to determine the percentage of time it will return true. Just off the top of my head, without looking at google or even the PHP manual, I'm thinking something simple like generating a random number from 1-100 and subtracting the input number from it. The result would then be tested to if it is equal to or less than 0, at which point it would return false - else, it would return true.

Of course, I already see an obvious problem: if looking for say a 99% chance of success, and the random number is anything less than 99 the function would return false and would actually have only a 2% chance of returning true.

Any thoughts a good way to accomplish this?

Because xinu is too busy working in production environments, I spent about 15 minutes reading through different articles Google found on the subject. Here's a brief result:

extremeexperts article summary: if the images are small and need security, use a DB. If the images are big or requested frequently, use the filesystem. The article also has a link regarding the TerraServer, which stores all its images (8 terabytes) in a database.

Here are some fetch statistics, too.

Community memories would come in handy, if the admin ever felt so inclined. *hinthint*

Hi folks,

Recently with Office 2003 when I start Word and FrontPage (which I use most commonly) I get a dialog with "Installing: Microsoft Office Word feature" and "Installing: Microsoft Office FrontPage feature" respectively. The program starts after a few second once the install is complete, so the software is still working at least.

It's getting increasingly annoyed though as (a) it adds to the time to start the application (b) I'm wondering why on earth it does this.

Any ideas why it's doing this? A quick Google hasn't turned up anything that I can see.

TIA

I'm sure this is going to create a firestorm of debate, but I'm tired of spending countless hours on Google. Before doing PHP, I was a Perl/Java programmer, and was used to doing database stuff with DBI in Perl more than anything else. I'm presently writing a PHP/MySQL app, which will be ported over to Oracle, so I'm looking to start using an abstraction layer (something I admittedly should've been doing the whole time). I've researched ADOdb and Pear::DB, and I can't make up my mind. Would some of you folks mind sharing your personal experiences?

Thanks!

Too bad their sample request url's do not work! Their width of services is more than google - image, news and video search capability in addition to standard web search. They seem to think that location based search is a separate category.

Hey,

So I made this AIM bot using the PHP:TOC class that plays a word game. See, you give it a word, let's say "cow" and he replies with another 3 letter word that's different from your word by a letter, like "how". It gets its words from a list I found on the internet, about 26,870 words.

Here's the thing: I wanna get it to learn new words. Let's say someone says "mow" after "cow" but it's not in the listing. Right now, it'll say that "mow" isn't a real word, but I want some way of verifying if in fact it is a real word, and adding it to the list. Is there some web API for dictionary.com or something similar I could talk to with PHP?

I'm think Google API might do it, but I haven't gotten to poke around with it yet. Anyone familiar with that API? How easy is it to use with PHP5?
