So the URL will be something like hxxp://link.nyt.com/Ax91. With the added benefit of shorter codes (due to the limited number of users), special codes all for themselves (e.g., hxxp://link.nyt.com/nfl) and in-house stats collection/DB control.
The user instead will be sure there is some editor taking responsibility for the occasional goatse redirect, which may be removed/updated in a centralized manner at a later time.
If the magazine cannot manage to setup something like this, they should not even start using public tinyurlers...
The glare is constrained to a very limited area and does not wash out the entire screen as those so called Anti-Glare have happen.
Sure. It just happens that most of the times I have a bright window/dark wall behind me, not a far away spot light/black background. This means that the glare is either not there or covering 30%-50% of the screen making that portion and the whole screen unreadable.
With matte screens instead, the glare is spread out evenly. You sure get a lower contrast ratio, but at least you can still use the screen and you're not distracted by sharp details in reflections.
Also please note that today's matte screens (at least the ones I've used, Acer Timelines and Apple MacBook Pros) are quite different from the ones that were sold 10 years ago. They're not completely matte, but a good compromise between brigthness/contrast and "sharp relfections spread". They reflect tangent light (light coming from the sides or from angles at which you don't usually look at the screen) and diffuse perpendicular light (light coming from behind the user). IMHO, this is the best compromise. And it will just cost you 50$ more on an MBP.
You don't necessarily have to stack'em up. You could linearly change the single antenna lengths along the array, to let them resonate over different frequencies. This way you would obtain in a single layer a very wide bandwidth antenna. Or you could use other well-known RF tricks (assuming you're able to replicate them litographically).
This would probably be one of the advantages over multi-junction solar cells. Of course assuming you're able to turn that HF energy into DC...
However ferromagnetism is not for learning only. Check over at TI for FRAM powered uCs and their advantages.
The standardization brought in hardware and software tools by Arduino is good, but people should understand that a '90s Atmel microcontroller isn't everything that's out there...

Birds moving in a flock follow highly correlated routes. This leaves room for statistical analysis and, with a sufficient number of captured birds, parts of the message may be recovered.
I was doing the same thing back in '99 with Windows 9x logos. The scrolling bar at the bottom was using the same palette cycling technique of these images. Manually editing the bitmaps of the logo.sys files, you could also choose how many colors would cycle IIRC. It was really easy to get some kind of animation going with this technique. Too bad I never released any of them...
FTPS is the a nightmare! It has the random port problems of FTP but also encrypts the commands so there is no way for the firewall to figure out what ports will be used.
Not really. You've got commands to enable encryption selectively: e.g., only during authentication, only on data connections (files, listings, or both) or all the time on both.
And nobody seems to be talking about FXP, which allows one client to control transfers between two remote servers with the data connection happening (eventually in an encrypted fashion) between the remote servers only at their full speed, with no requirements on the client.
Go over at ThinkGeek and actually try to buy them. Even if it's an April fool, if they see enough interest they will turn them into an actual product (as happened before with the Tauntaun sleeping bag, iCADE, Personal Soundtrack T-Shirt, 8-bit Tie, etc...)
And there's no big science behind these glasses, so they should also land pretty quickly on-market.
... they think they can make more money that way (money always is the reason).
Now, supposing the pirate version of a game is not released even before the first day of availability, it is likely it will spread out in "usual protocols" some days after it. Shouldn't they foresee a money loss if the only option for gamers to play will be through illegal means? How is that going to bring them money?
If the pirate version is stable and the game is not mainly multiplayer, once gamers go down the pirate road they're unlikely to buy the game after the official release. Or, at least, they will see less advantage in doing so...
Americans also regularly pay over $100 per month for cable TV... and there are ads on almost every channel (often taking up a full third of every hour of programming!), not to mention pay-per-view channels.
About that, look at the bright side: at least you are producing great stuff (tv series, documentaries) or, at least, stuff you in the end export. Here (Italy) the last consistently good stuff was produced 50 years ago.
These days we may pay less for tv, but the stuff we get is either cr** or coming from the US a season later...
The point is nobody's explaining people why they're falling off bridges. In technical details I mean.
But, after all, I understand that hearing a talk about stones and arches from who built, paid for, and didn't maintain log-shaped-people-killing bridges, would make them look unreliable at best, criminal at worst.
... always worked as an alternative for maximize/restore on MS Windows. Just like double clicking the top-left corner closes a windows since Windows 3 at least.

Exactly. And they should setup their own service.

Yeah, even though it's more of a comment become story...
Then I think I will quote my own comment there...

I suppose the Vatican's statement regarding Bin Laden's death is the only thing I liked from them in the past 10 years:

Google cache for blog entry, sources on original website (these still work to me).
You may want to try reading them back on your PC before getting rid of them, in case you've got two PC floppy drives lying around...
See ADFRead from WinUAE (any recent Windows version) or Disk2FDI (Windows 9x only, but better disk format support).
I hope we won't need to get to that point to see "resources spent on homegrown IT" in Italy.
But I'm not too optimistic.

Shouldn't there be a law that prohibits someone to be taxed two times over the same... stuff?

TFP is referring to this, in case anyone other than me missed it.

Or 30 bananas...
Untraceable was pretty accurate. Or, at least, not totally wrong...
