Google is attempting to jump over language barriers in a single bound. The search king this week launched a new feature to convert search results into 12 different languages. The long-term implications could be a boon for e-commerce.

"Copyright officials recommended on Thursday that U.S. law be amended so that companies that rely on copyright infringement to make a profit can be held liable for their actions."  Which of course applies only to US companies.  Kazaa should be free and clear.  ...  Should have supplied a link.  I'm a BAD blogger!

Rob Richards mentioned in a previous book review about some of the issues he was having getting the Oracle extension enabled on his Fedora 8 system. Well, he's come back after doing some more testing/compiling and has found some resolution to his issues.   I really didn't need to get it running, but the sheer fact that I tried it and it wouldn't work, pissed me off enough to spend some time getting it resolved. Hopefully this helps anyone else having the same problem. I am currently using instant client 11.1, but I did try the 10.2 version with the same results.   He steps through the process he followed - tracking down the missing libaio files, correcting an issue with SELinux loading the Oracle libraries and his realization: he just needed to allow text relocation. Included in the post are the command line calls that'd need to be made to make it all happen.

Not surprisingly, the company advises against using vLite, or other tools that make changes to which components of the OS are installed. Such changes could make a system unstable or prevent future updates from installing properly, it says.

Internationalizing a website can bring all sorts of challenges, as Markus Wolff found out when working on a recent project:   When you're building international websites, there's always something new to learn. Especially if one of the languages your website is available in uses a character set different from anything you're used to. For jimdo.com, the greatest challenge as of yet is the chinese version.   His focus isn't so much on the content of the page but on one small character that caused him headaches - the comma. Unfortunately, it seems that Unicode has its own commas that don't quite adhere to the "normal" rules to make them easy to work with (and, in his case, split with a regular expression). The fix to the situation was simple, though - adding a "u" modifier after the expression made it Unicode-aware and split the information correctly.

To set things right about a misquote on Slashdot, Zeev Suraksi has posted this long statement mentioning what he really said and a few more personal opinions.   I've just been misquoted on Slashdot, as if I said there are no security problems in PHP itself, and that I instead point my finger only at inexperienced developers. If you read the original article on Heise Security, you'll see that I have not said anything of the sort. [...] I believe this is the belief of most others on the security team, but I'm only speaking on behalf of myself and do not represent them.   He also covers five more points pertaining to the article and the situation:  Where the bugs/problems lie with problems in PHP Why there are security problems in web PHP applications Why the current security level can be partially blamed on the language itself An admission that yes, there are security problems in PHP And the track record the PHP developers have had in fixing these issues  There's much more than just these brief highlights here, so I encourage you to head on over and check out the full post for yourself.   There are some other opinions on the matter from a few others out there too:  cyberlot's blog Zend Developer Zone's post Tony Bibbs' blog
