So what if there was a landscape architecture contest to write a clear, readable, innocent looking CSI spec that just busts a landscape contractor, every which way.  What would that look like?  The prize is beer.  This is a LABash event, no?  This is not a comment against teamwork with craftsmen landscape contractors; but rather a challenge for LAs to learn specs inside and out!  The First Annual Underhanded C Contest. Xcott Craver writes "We have just announced a new annual contest, the Underhanded C Contest, to write clear, readable, innocent-looking C code that implements malicious behavior. The object is to hide evil functionality that survives visual inspection of the source. The prize is beer." [Slashdot]

As this matures, it will overwhelm the sell advertising bias of on the scene news reporting, no?  And I do believe there will be new efficiencies to be found in real world business from this 'podcasting'.  Later today I'm driving to Gainesville, which is a little closer to the eye of the storm. Why am I doing this? I'm a podcaster, that's why. ";->" [Scripting News]

I'm still trying to see a clear way for these tools to create efficiencies in the landscape architecture, planning, design, engineering, building, statutory process we all live with...any ideas?  Nokia 6680 3G phone. Review Nokia gets 3G right at last? [The Register]
