Maybe he didn't want it comming up when HR departments do background checks.. But another possibility is that the real person that corresponds to the leaked messages isnt such a perfect shill, but he can't complain as this PR impo

I think a simpler point to make would be that no one should have special standing in the legal system except when issued a specific warrant. If one person can get this data without a warrant, then why would there be any kind of barrier agai

Any thoughts on leaving Actuarial work? I was thinking of going the other way.. a consistent education/testing seems like it fixes the eternal new wheels and pop experts problem of software as a career.

“busted” for using code that works without introducing bugs to show you understood It... Whether, let alone how, they violated the license is not a subject of the article. Expecting code review to detect plaigarism is.. Writing code is edit

Ah, the threat to iOS is a non-threat because they are immune to their market's Ford Fiesta like Rolls Royce, which was bought out by BMW for lack of marketshare, which is pushing Mini hard for to get back into a larger marketshare bef

Market share.

I don't know what gives you that idea. Huawei is like a Ford of chinese phones. Just because they have a fiesta doesn't mean they don't also compete with rolls royce at their highest end. I think the article is giberish becau

This has no external data so workers may avoid a cache fetch let alone having enough data for regular cache misses. Even a simple strlen call in each worker could begin to add the kind of issues that affect meaningful performance. How a lan

I guess you've hurt feelings with sarcasm? But I agree. Virtualization is a bad joke with 8GB of RAM today, so I decided to assume 16GB max isn't enough lifetime for a new system and wont be consuming in the current market.

True, but I was actually referring to them coming as the only interfaces to the iMac. AFAIK the laptops provide builtin HID, so they don't needlessly become a brick from depending on independent battery backed HID devices.

Hmm, not sure I get the article. I recently ditched OsX on an iMac and in the past I used Solaris on an apple laptop. In general, I would say that while not cheap for a general intel machine, the core hardware is pretty good and Apple'

You need access to LANs themselves to get ethernet addresses which would easily map to people on many devices. De-anonymizing based on traffic in a cafe is going to be a bit more complicated than average for some users and the random passer

If you write a free application that runs on Java on the raspberry Pi you (probably) owe Oracle nothing. If anyone builds a console around that raspberry Pi, Oracle probably is owed money because the device is no longer a general machine. T

> This might as well be Java. Chromium specific certainly isn't as good as open standards, but it isn't as bad as Java. Once chromium is ported to something it doesn't face legal uncertainty.

Cool, thanks! I'll do a little practice and then jump in to immersion at the start of my next vacation then. I just tried a little using an onscreen keyboard as a cheat, and it doesn't really feel all that different from learning

very cool, thanks! Composing the other accents actually works well for me since I use them infrequently but just frequently enough to get annoyed if there is no system in their placement.

I think the article is missing the obvious point that the queue at the bottom affects walkers as well as standers even though it is being formed by the delays caused by standers needing more time on the escalator. Allow walkers up the middl

by efes 11y ago
Given that there are two escalators per direction, making the middle ones purely for walkers would probably create the necessary incentives to get ~2/3 walking to bypass the longer queues on the sides..

I would rather slowly move everything to ChromeOS and abandon android. I find it ridiculous that I am running an OS from Google with a broken mobile browser. I also find it more likely that the ChromeOS model could remain secure despite the

False. Miscommunication occurs in most pure english interactions but only occasionally is significant and even more rarely actually kills someone. There is excellent research on text/email communication.

I really wanted them to merge themselves in as an alternate userland mode for cyanogenmod and any other AOSP. I'm not sure if microsoft's investment in cyanogenmod was a response to those kinds of possibilities..
