The additive methods of color photography, such as Autochrome and Dufaycolor, were the first practical color processes; however, these had disadvantages. The réseau filter was made from discrete color elements that became visible upon enlargement, and the finished transparencies absorbed between 70% and 80% of light upon projection, requiring very bright projection lamps, especially for large projections. Using the subtractive method, these disadvantages could be avoided.
It was an improvement over previous color film technologies in that it didn't require as much light to project the resulting image, and the resulting photos looked much better when blown up.
I'm not surprised this is a 'WIRED' article. They are such Apple fanboys. I've come so close to canceling my subscription because they go on and on ad nauseum about Apple, Inc.
It's not exactly a secret that marijuana use results in a diminished reaction time and loss of motor control. This is the same with alcohol or most depressants for that matter.
I see people mis-classify this all the time. Marijuana isn't a depressant or narcotic, but a hallucinogen
You know, I used to be a heavy opponent of campers in my early days, but as I got into games with more realistic gameplay (ETQW, MW2, etc), you find that camping is essential if you don't want to just get picked off immediately.
Clearly there's a business opportunity here, I know I could throw together much better fakes in under an hour and even if I billed them for a full day of labor it would probably still cost them less than what this horribly botched photoshop job cost them...
Let's be realistic here. This was likely a quick job by a department manager...probably with something as crude as MS Paint. No self-respecting artist would let something that shitty be released to the public...
I would consider BP's negligence the cause of the the 11 men's death, much like a drunk driver would be blamed for involuntarily hitting and killing somebody in his/her car.
Lol...this reminds me of a girl i sat by in high school. My first impression was she was pretty bangable, but one day (probably the result of being late to school) she didn't put on any makeup whatsoever. Oh the horror. It was almost like looking at Freddie Kruger.
You need to actually be testing their ability to write software. As a few others have pointed out, having them develop a simple web application as part of the interview process is probably going to be the best way to measure that ability.
Additionally, to test their integration skills, you could also have them attempt to develop a new page to be integrated into your company's product. Not only will this show off their software development skills, but will also give you some insight into their ability to inherit an existing software project and work with it (something that he vast majority of newly-hired developers will have to do).
The answer seems simple. Ask for guest access to a server that they configured. If they don't have something like that you could set up a simple lamp server and have them perform some basic tasks.
This may be good for interviewing people for a sysadmin position, but I fail to see how configuring a server has anything to do with the applicants ability to develop software.
And how is this any different than having to jailbreak an iPhone to do whatever you want with it?
I love how the Fandroids out there always praise how "free" and "non-locked down" their phones are, but in actuality you still have to jailbreak it (aka root it) in order to actually do what you want with it. So, I ask again...how is this any different from an iPhone?
Probably the best thing they could do is license iOS from Apple. What are the other options? Put out the same exact Android phone that everybody else is?
If they paid Apple enough money it could happen.
Yeah, and after that maybe Apple will license OS X to Dell and HP for use on their desktop computers.

Like most model slashdotters, I fly off half-cocked then RTFA.
So...if they think they're underpaid, go somewhere else...

Be that as it may, the truth still prevails.
I see people mis-classify this all the time. Just to be clear, marijuana isn't a narcotic of a depressant, but a hallucinogen.

...camping tends to be frowned upon in gaming

I can't say that they have killed anyone...

I wouldn't consider it simple (it's a large java webapp), but they are given some source code to use to help them out.
Bullshit. That's one of the things we make prospective developers do for the company I work for...it's been working out pretty well so far.
It's called intuition. Some people have it more than others apparently...

The girl's mother is an idiot.
No shit..not to mention the guy totally looks like a pedophile/rapist. Way to ignore all red flags...
Are you fucking kidding me? If this is all parents have to worry about their high school kids getting into, they should consider themselves lucky.
Bingo

Now where have I heard this before? Oh, right.
Who is going to buy Solaris when the only thing tested on it is Oracle Database?
People looking for a stable, tested OS to run Oracle on?
Took it home, unlocked it...

what's more important is that win2k support is withdrawn as well... and quite a few major organization still rely on it...
And these are the types of companies Microsoft is going to have little-to-no regard for.
