That's exactly how it works on Android. It uses Google+ profile pictures, which you can override, you can also enable option to show details about numbers that are not in your contacts (including the picture).

By using cursor key for voting you dramatically decreased usability, for example I no longer can use Platform Key (Win/Command) key + left arrow to go back to previous page.

The reason why companies are caring at all about it is because this directly affects their income. Especially from foreign users.

Well, there's OpenJDK, but to use the standard one from Oracle you need to run it under linux emulation layer. https://www.freebsdfoundation.org/java http://www.freshports.org/java/openjdk7/

Well, it's like fork but it's the other way. After Oracle bought Sun, other projects that adopted ZFS continued fixing it and adding new features. So FreeBSD has its version, Illumnos (fork of Solaris) has it own, Delphix own and

Think of jails as VMs without the overhead of having the same OS multiple times in memory. Similarly you can't use host's IP by any of the guests. That said many people go around that by simply binding the jail against an unsused

As I understand you need to have the same EUID to be able to bind to the same port.

According to LinkedIn, he just started working there this month. I guess he is just dumb, inexperienced, and maybe it was first time someone hang up on him.

I personally don't drink coffee. From my observation I don't think I'm any less alert than other coworkers, but I just need to have standard 7-8 hours of sleep.

Provide session support in HTTP and still cookies for backward compatibility. If the support works right, people will migrate themselves.

AmEx has special Costco card, which you can only use with valid Costco membership (it automatically renews it per year) and the cashback you are receiving will be in a form of coupon given yearly which you can only spend back at Costco.

Well, the XMPP still works and is decentralized. Is also the biggest network. If that is not enough for you then I'm afraid you won't find any other alternative. You can set up your own XMPP server or use one of tons of the public ones: ht

If I remember correctly, Sun responded with even more of their own patents at them and eventually they just settled.

They set up a caching server for their organization so the DNS lookups are faster, but they forget to restrict the recursive queries only to their organization so anyone else can use them. That makes them work like Smurf ampliefiers ( http:

Yeah /8 what a waste. Many organizations were asked to return /8 in exchange to /16, but snobs at MIT refused.

Not everything. They think Sweeden and Finland are Western Europe despite the fact that those countries geographically are more eastern than for example Poland.

I guess you are confused. Google was ready to provide those features in exchange for their branding and also ability to display ads. Apple did not agree to that, and now Google has that option as being 3rd party app, which iOS users now nee

How come Apple allowed this app? Isn't it duplicate functionality of the iPhone? I guess everyone is equal, but some are more equal than others...

Not really. Looks like their domain is configured so negative responses are cached only for 300 seconds (5 minutes).

I agree with you about the last thing somewhat, but not entirely. While RedHat benefits from people switching from CentOS to RHEL, it's not illegal to run CentOS, and the other direction is also available. My company is currently using RedH

If both are bad, why do you care which one you chose? I would opt for voting the current one out of the office, since at least it sends a message that you are not approve what the person is doing.

And for Constitutional amendment you still have to vote yes or no. I vote for opponent to my Senator, not because I agree with her, but because I don't think the current senator represents me. If the next one does the same I will vote again

The thing is that with Google, we are not the consumers, we are the product. That is true to a lesser degree even if you pay them.

I'm sorry, but the suggestion is plain retarded. The author probably is too young and/or clueless to understand what kind of hell Internet was 15 years ago. If he wants to experience how it feels, he should just start build Flash based webs

Agreed. Same for using goto in C for error handling (e.g. http://www.xml.com/ldd/chapter/book/ch02.html#buierr ) I found this used often in Linux kernel and I absolutely love it how clear it is.
