30-pin was an Apple-only connector, though. Same with lightning. The 1.5mm jack, on the other hand, is the standard audio connector for just about every consumer-grade device in the world. Not sure what the upside is for Apple, even with

Worth pointing out that Clindamaycin is used to treat MRSA, and resistant strains are appearing now: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clindamycin So no, it's not a good idea for more of it to be out there.

You're paying sales taxes in pretty much all of the US, though, though not as much(ranges from ~3% to 10%).

Both books are, actually. The paperback edition for Brad Stone's book is going to be released in October.

That's true. However, making a JK Rowling book completely unavailable? That's incredibly suspicious. It's pretty much a guaranteed bestseller.

So, in other words, you're creating another group with you at the top, pushing your PR agenda for the movement. I fail to see the difference, other than the fact that you're doing it instead of those people.

If it's a core part of your technology strategy, as RBS/ABN say it is, then your legal people need to make sure that you don't accidentally sell it away. The problem seems to stem(from a ruling last year linked here: https:&

Privacy is like cryptography. You're private/secure until you're not, and there's nothing you can do once it's been broken. So cultural or legal agreements or frameworks might provide some recompense, they will no

I think it's safe to assume that someone(US, Russia, China, etc.) has something in the area, but nobody's going to be talking about it to the public. It's not so much about disclosing capabilities as much as it's just

I'm a firm believer in regression tests for complex systems. Sure, this specific case is extremely unlikely to come up again, but in general, it's always good to have that coverage, especially if a large refactor happens later on
