  • IDEAS:
    • Against spammers: display your e-mail as an image file on your web page and other places where spammers may hunt e-mails.This is also a good idea when you wish to send sensitive info, like passwords or even credit card info. Of course not fully secure, but more secure than sending it as a text.
  • COMP
    • Full netscape distribution (without the installer)
      ftp://ftp.netscape.com/pub/netscape6/english/6.1/unix/linux22/sea/netscape-i686-pc-linux-gnu-sea.tar.gz
  • TIPS (compiled from Linux Journal)
    • Use ssh -n to run an X program from one computer on another.
         For example,
         ssh -n frodo gimp &
         will run the GIMP on the host frodo, but display locally.
         Using ssh for this is much easier and more secure than setting it up
         in X manually.

Paradigm

A paradigm is the consensus of the scientific community; "concrete problem solutions that the profession has come to accept." (Hoyningen-Huene, 1993, p. 134)

Thomas Kuhn coined the term paradigm. He outlined it in terms of the scientific process. Kuhn felt that, "one sense of paradigm, is global, embracing all the shared commitments of a scientific group; the other isolates a particularly important sort of commitment and is thus a subset of the first."(Hoyningen-Huene, 1993, p. 134) The concept of paradigm has two general levels. The first is the encompassing whole; the summation of the parts. It consists of the theories, laws, rules, models , concepts, and definitions that go into a generally accepted fundamental theory of science. Such a paradigm is "global" in character. The other level of paradigm is that it can also be just one of these laws, theories, models, etc. that combine to formulate a "global" paradigm. These have the property of being "local". For instance, Galileo's theory that the earth rotated around the sun became a paradigm in itself, namely a generally accepted law in astronomy. Yet on the other hand, his theory combined with other "local" paradigms in areas such as religion and politics to transform culture.
