I love LDAP. I do. But sometimes I'm just bewildered by its evilness, as well as how divergent different products are; what works for OpenLDAP may not work for other implementations. Here's a [new favorite of mine](https://forums.zarafa.com/showthread.php?312-Ldap-search-filters): > Unfortunately, ldap cannot do number compares in the search filter. OpenLDAP supports a ">=" operator, but it doesn't work on the one type of field you would most expect it to: numbers.

[Ireland's Independent](http://www.independent.ie/sport/belfast-giants-players-desert-owner-29078458.html): > Players from the Giants have signed for a new company that intends to use the same name and play at the same venue - but under a different management scheme. I'm not sure what Mr. Knight did to piss off the players and the arena management, but he clearly did a good job of it.

Vagrant and AWS were meant for each other.

I noticed this a couple of weeks ago and chalked it up to a systems issue. Perhaps it's more than that.

I would go so far as to say that Apple outright created an entire market, twice the size of the pre-existing smartphone market. Samsung, in trying to compete with Apple, then destroyed the other competitors in the industry.

It’s as if Apple doesn't make anything else that might use AMOLED tech. I think it’s far more likely that we’ll see this tech in iPods, iPhones, and iPads long before we see an “iTV.”

I'm in complete agreement. Every job I've left, it's been more due to my boss or my boss's boss - not because of the work or the company.

Expect great things from Kai's.

Lowering the Bar: > The government committee that thinks Blaer is a dumb name is called the Mannanafnanefnd, which is either a bunch of letters chosen at random or Icelandic for "Personal Names Committee." And this is why I read LtB.

Boy Genius Report: > The company said in a release that it expects revenue in the first quarter this year to be between flat and down 17% compared to the fourth quarter last year, when HTC posted its worst earnings in eight years. It's not iOS vs Android. It's Apple vs Samsung and Google.

[Popehat](http://www.popehat.com/2013/02/04/reddits-doxxing-paradox/): > Why is identifying Bell acceptable to your community, but identifying Violentacrez unacceptable to your community? There was fire were there was smoke in the cases of both Violentacrez and Bell. Doxxing - the 21st Century equivalent to vigilante posses - has produced a fair number of innocent victims, though.

Not The Onion. Really.

Cycling has a doping problem that makes baseball's 90s steroid use seem quaint in comparison. I've already heard two people ask why the IOC doesn't drop baseball over similar concerns, though. I guess they didn't notice that [baseball was dropped in London 2012](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baseball_at_the_Summer_Olympics) largely because organizers didn't want to build a baseball stadium. The sport won't be returning until 2020 at the earliest. London dropped the sport over real estate concerns - baseball requires a lot of space, there's very little potential to repurpose a baseball stadium in a country that doesn't play the sport, and real estate in London is some of the most expensive in the world. The IOC does cite doping as a primary concern that must be addressed before the sport can return, though.
