All of these HTTP/1.0 requests look just like a scanner that the security team would run again my internal site. Every day.

The optimization Amazon wanted (and got) was related to CPU cores, not early next-gen chips. I always assumed it was a way to sell more "dedicated cores" per socket. It might be exclusive, but Google, Facebook and enterprises woul

True. Just a happy side effect for the advertising in that example. Also, I'm not a huge fan of more regulation, but scientific integrity seems to demand the placebo ingredients be disclosed. From the discussion, it seems clear the doctor-s

Can someone take a shot at listing a few math languages vs non-math ones?

He is geeky, yes, but I thought his enthusiasm and excitement were both genuine and infectious.

Why isn't this headline "US government forces Apple to sue Polish grocery store"?

After SOPA (or whatever that was called), ignorance is their only defense. Or that they are smitten by Danica Patrick.

Seriously? Personal info about the President was leaked? Not that this particular instance looks like a big deal. Doesn't the NSA secure the President's communication? That must be carrer-impacting-embarrassing for someone .

Does anyone have references to studies or data? I tried looking once, but couldn't even find a proper definition.

Why is everyone so shocked about the idea this could lead to suicide? After reading this, if I were him, it would be downright appealing. (I am not him, to be very clear. Please don't send help).

I deposited a check at an ATM recently and it was rejected (by the ATM itself) because it was not endorsed. It wasn't and I seriously doubt this is anything more than a check for some ink on the back in the endorse-here area. The ATM then t

That is the brute-force approach Microsoft uses. Corporations love it. I find the problem is that the "matrix" of possibilities you have to keep in mind as a programmer keeps getting bigger and bigger. You end up with the Adobe Flash effect

Jeez, I sure hope Uncle Sam comes to protect us all from these big, mean hackers and these over-confident programmers. That is the only way we will ever be safe. I would put a </sarcasm> but I can't turn it off that quickly.
