JDJ: What's the message anyway?
As a result of the JBoss expose here and elsewhere, various trade rags have picked up the story. It made it onto slashdot. The comments there of course are equally hilarious and depressing. Amazing how many people fail to grasp the difference between an anonymous post and a fake persona post. Still, that’s to be expected from a bunch of spotty gentoo tuggers anyway.
Next up we have eweek, which ran a very professional sounding story which managed to put JBoss in a hilariously bad light. The best quote of course had to be the ‘so-called professional’ line. Delicious.
Not to be outdone, JDJ had to jump in the fray. Needless to say, I strongly approve of their article. I’m hopelessly biased against JBoss so that couldn’t possibly surprise anyone. Cameron buying me so many drinks has also clearly affected my judgement, but oh well.
However, the real fun starts if one were to look at what else is going on at JDJ now. On the one hand we have a sane sensible article about happy community building and a mild waggle of the finger in the general direction of JBoss, and on the other hand we have….immature BEA bashing.
This farce started a couple of days ago, when JDJ ran an article about BEA ‘firing’ sys-con and electing to go with another publisher for an ‘official’ Weblogic magazine. BEA pointed out that sys-con’s Weblogic magazine is unaffiliated with them and suchlike and so forth.
At this point, it’s pretty clear that various head honchos at sys-con all simultaneously soiled their panties and suffered a fairly embarrassing bout of serious backdoor leakage. What follows is an amateur campaign of insults that would be quite newsworthy if it wasn’t trumped so thoroughly by those JBoss tards.
JDJ is now merrily in the process of running at least one or two disparaging BEA articles a day. These articles are hilarious. It’s like watching a three year old spastic child shaking his fists and expressing his anger by leaking from all orifices. Pretty it is not.
The contrast makes the whole thing very funny. On one hand, a sane article that doesn’t make the reader squirm and feel mildly embarrassed (unless said reader is JBoss employee, of course), and on the other hand we have petty vindictive jabs. Far be it from me to tell you how to run your business but…oh fine, I’ll tell you, since you asshats don’t seem to know. Have the right hand have a little chat with the left, and decide once and for all, are you to remain the object of mockery, or should people actually start taking you seriously?

JDJ is indeed a joke.
I’m looking forward to trailer-trash Ottinger jumping to its defence – almost certainly by posting his inimitable “You don’t know me…” rant.
It really is a surprise he hasn’t joined JBoss yet. You’d have to thing that that would be the natural ground-state of the world – where all the arsehat idiot end up in the same place.

JDJ? Nope, doesn’t ring a bell. Some kind of Java magazine?
I read something that propounded to be such a thing a couple of days ago. Interviews with many, many important people at IBM and various other people in ties with many, many important things to say. Though, now that I think about it, I can’t remember a single thing they uttered.
The same magazine taught me to stop reverse engineering by obfuscating jars and tells me that BEA are losing much ground to IBM in something very, very important.
It also features an ad showing that the magazine is the #1 Digital Subscription publication in the world. Really quite amazing. Must make the effort to unsubscribe from the two entires I have, rather than let the spam filter take care of it.
Y’know…it must have been all the ties and glossy images on display, I clean didn’t notice that the mag was called JDJ.

Haha, I think I’ll just sit here and watch from the fence. BTW, I wonder – really – who exposed a soft underbelly by posting that “Crossing the Line” article online?
May 21st, 2004 at 7:44 am
Is it at all possible that I could be remembered for at least something remotely non-alcohol related?

Hey Ottinger – get a nose job fer christs sake.

Hey, Joe, did you hear the one about the Austian from Australia? Or was it the other way around?
Must check. “I’ll be back”, mate.
May 21st, 2004 at 7:58 pm
Oops, that’s “Austrian”. I don’t know where it is, but I can sure spell, real nice too.
Ok, I’ll get back to being back.
