Talk:User interface markup language

message: The markup-based UI, even after many years of evolution, in terms of REAL application development, remains an unqualified disaster compared to options available to thick client developers. The markup-script-based UI requires FAR more effort to implement, are less reliable, look worse, and delivers less functionality than any thick client UI.
And on the contrary - markup languages do not prevent "reinvention of the wheel" at all in practice - they encourage cut and paste.
The whole idea of markup as UI is flawed because its predicated on the HTML / JavaScript spec already covering everything a UI needs to be, at a very high level - and that's just never going to happen. Yes there is a demand for a high-level way of expressing a user interface, but any silly markup-script UI should be compiled into a lower level file by the designer. Browsers should receive something entirely different.
Just my $.02.

Talk:Modern rock

message: Regarding #1 song on modern rock radio:
What if this can be updated weekly?
There exists already a similar contribution on the 'Billboard Hot 100' page.
:It'd probably be better to just link to a web site that gives the modern rock tracks instead. Wikipedia should be working towards permanently useful info that will have a reason to stay in the article over time. Logging the weekly changes to the charts is only going to clutter the article with marginally important details that it would be better to leave to an off-site listing. And don't get me wrong, if there are extremely significant entries in the charts that should be mentioned, then they might belong here, but it'd be unneeded to give every single #1. -- LGagnon 23:55, Mar 4, 2005 (UTC)
In the 1990's and to the present, what other styles of rock could have been used?
I'm trying to decipher the words "Indie rock remains the main equivalent" at the end of this article. I cannot parse that. What does it mean?Ramseyman (talk) 18:58, 5 December 2020 (UTC)
thread_title: Untitled

message: Back in the mid-to-late 1990s, I remember hearing on the street that the stuff being played on the radio at the time was modern rock, not true alternative, which was supposed to be something totally underground and non-commercial, probably close to or mostly the same as college rock, indie rock, and garage rock.  The term "modern rock" was used to dis hugely popular "conformist" (commercial) music of the time, especially "Smashing Pumpkins", "Nine Inch Nails", "Pearl Jam", and perhaps even more so for "Creed" and "Kid Rock".  So I think they were trying to say that "modern rock" was only pop music based loosely on actual alternative rock. But maybe this was just a local or regional misconception peculiar to the places I was at, and/or maybe I just happened to hang around some exceptionally rigid & purist idiosyncratic eccentrics. Shanoman (talk) 21:42, 28 January 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I wouldn't say you're incorrect about many people using modern rock pejoratively, but the term is mostly a radio format and less a genre.  The radio format, to me, mixes both alternative rock and rock that is created today.  I think the real problem is that rock made post 1980 is too often called alternative rock...which is supposed to be a distinct genre.  marnues (talk) 00:58, 5 September 2009 (UTC)

replies: text: Turing worked on many things at Bletchley, not just the Bombes (don't use that film as a source!). In mid 1942, he was working on the Lorenz, and developed a manual method which was the basis of the Heath Robinson, which was the basis of Colossus. He was also the chap within Bletchley who put forward Tommy Flowers as the technical developer for Colossus, given his experience working with him.  So even within the tight security of Bletchley, and even though Turing "wasn't working on" something, that doesn't necessarily mean he was unaware of it.

message: This Nucleus olivaris article was redirected to the current article.  Its contents(below) should merged with the current one.
A large aggregate of small densely packed nerve cells arranged in folded laminae shaped like a purse with the opening (hilum) directed medially. It corresponds in position to the oliva, projects to all parts of the contralateral half of the cerebellar cortex by way of the olivocerebellar tract, and is the only source of cerebellar climbing fibres. Its afferent connections include fibres from the spinal cord, the dentate nucleus and motor cortex, but its major input appears to be the central tegmental tract originating from multiple nuclei at midbrain levels.

This is a most important task, the very basis of what a human is. 
I can see how useful wikipedias hyperlinked topics are, but the brain does not have the same filing system.

Talk:The One

message: I put this statement here.  
A derogatory nickname John McCain has used in advertisements to refer to Barack Obama.
User Mwtoews has reverted it twice. I also look at his posting record and notice he has removed previous mentions of Barack Obama from other users.  First time he claimed "it could be anyone."   I don't know what that's supposed to mean.   "The One"  has become a very common nickname among the American right wing for Barack and it is even been used in McCain ads.  If you Google search "The one" that ad is the first result.  That ad has over 1 million views.   There is enough evidence to support that "The one" is used to identify Barack Obama.   Lets look at other presidental nick names.   "Bubba" has a entry for Bill Clinton on Wikipedia.  "Ike" links to Eisenhower.   Tricky Dick links to Nixon.   So I see no reason why "The One" should not link to Barack Obama.
You say this is a disambiguous page, not a definition page in your second edit.   I am not defining what the nickname means here and am simply redirecting to Barack Obama.   And there is this entry for a religious belief "The one"  that comes closer to a definition than my entry.  
"Religious belief in the coming of the savior, i.e., Jesus Christ (Christians), The Messiah (Judaism), The Mahdi (Shīʿī Islam), Maitreya (Buddism)"

The reference you provide to "The One" is a gimmick of the Republicans, and as such, is information on their campaign strategy (and should be included somewhere in another article), but doesn't need to be disambiguated here (i.e., nobody goes to this page to look up Barack since they can't remember his name, but only by this "nickname".) I don't even see a reference to his nickname as "The One" on the Wikipedia article (and if I did, then we should add it here as you suggested). I don't want to see a list of people here who claim that they are "The One" since it is more-or-less a statement of their ego. I'd rather keep that gate closed, otherwise this page will be a mess. The religious-based entries are in there since they are fundamental to large portions of the world's beliefs, and have stood the test of time as "The One".
