Article comments from ArsTechnica
Authored by: al_dunsmuir on Thursday, May 31 2012 @ 07:30 AM EDT
Lots of good comments over at ArsTechnica about their article, including:
  • "Watching this guy is just incredibly entertaining. This is the closest we'll ever get to watching a sit-down interview with a comic book villain. Everything he does makes perfect sense in his head, I'm sure."

  • "Maybe Steve bequeathed his reality distortion field generator to Larry in his will."

  • "So does anyone disagree that Ellison is at least a little insane?

    Maybe a bit, but he does have balls of brass. And he's quite refreshing for a CEO. Usually CEO's are all politically correct, they talk alot without saying anything (just watch Mike Lazardis for example), don't mention the competition... Then we have Ellison who has no problems trash-talking the competition. He's ruthless, cunning and smart. And yes, a bit insane.

    Yeah, he's the closest we have to a insane genius bent on world domination. I just wish he had a white cat on his lap while he was talking at the conference."

Newspick: Larry Ellison comments
Authored by: jjs on Thursday, May 31 2012 @ 07:55 AM EDT
9 lines that the JUDGE says he could write? 9 lines of a
bog-standard boundary check? Out of 15 million lines?
Written by the same guy who wrote the 9 lines that are
infringed?

For this they spent how much?

Larry, please turn down your reality distortion field.

Reality distortion generator (RDG)

RDG's are given to those who finally make it into the FRLBC
(Filthy Rich Little Boy's Club.)

Reading this put me back into the SCO saga. Sounds like the same reality
distortion filter at work.
