It costs less for a manufacturer to produce a single version of their product than for multiple versions with different capabilities.
That's not why Intel is doing it. If you produce computer hardware, you only get a fraction of what it sells for in the store. The retailers take a big chunk and the taxes and import tarriffs stack up. Selling a software upgrade - preferably online - is pure profit.
Didn't the frequency hopping algorithms for standard cellphones have to be modified to make eavesdropping more easy? I'm quite certain that happened in Germany and I suspect in the rest of the world as well.
Can you help me understand the distinction between 2 and 5? Is Darwinian evolution supposed to be guided in any way or to have any kind of goal (like complex or intelligent life)?
Rewriting an application can work if the developers know what they're doing. However, these rewrites are often side projects. If considerably more resources are spent to extend the original application, the rewrite will be behind until it gets cancelled. On the other hand, a rewrite is always a risk and betting your company on it is insane. In most cases it's safer to refactor the original implementation, even if it's more work than starting from scratch.
Chrome is very likely to hold the DOM of visited pages in the cache so that f.e. hitting the back button will quickly render the previous page. That does not necessarily mean that the information gets persisted on the hard drive or is available to other pages. On the other hand it's not unlikely that the information sometimes gets paged out to the hard drive and persists until it gets overwritten.
AFAIK there only were two companies that could provide turn by turn information (NavTeq and Tele Atlas). Nokia bought NavTeq and TomTom bought Tele Atlas. Shortly after that, Google fell out with Tele Atlas. That's when Google started its Streetview cars, which also collect turn by turn information.
Creating or spreading drawings of children having or witnessing sex or simply posing in an 'erotic' way can get you to jail in many countries. To my knowledge, this includes the US.
The commanders had to decide based on the information they were provided. They were told that the people from the van were picking up bodies and weapons, not that they were picking up a wounded man with no weapons in sight.
Certainly. Microsoft provides filtering / censorship solutions since 2006 and The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation donates millions to groups like "Save the Children" that lobby for blocking child pornography.
On a screen in portrait orientation, a sideways swipe lets you replace the content with the finger travelling a shorter distance. That being said, the swipe does complement the down-scrolling instead of replacing it. It offers different views of the content instead of exposing more of it.
More interestingly, the German law would not only have blocked sites featuring CP, but also sites linking or referring to CP. This would have included pages like Wikileaks that provide leaked blocking lists of other countries. These lists are interesting because only a miniscule minority of the blocked sites feature actual CP.
How does that help you? Let's say that your environment has several states (f.e. light off, compressor on) where the fluctuations are periodic and can be predicted. As soon as the state changes, you lose any reference. You would have to calibrate the input for each of the possible states separately and be able to recognize them. Otherwise, you lose your absolute coordinates.
This is a pure "garbage in - garbage out" situation where no magic model can handle.
You're taking a series of point samples in an environment that changes unpredictably. That's a hell of a "modelling problem".
The only robust solution that I can think of is to generate your own fields, so that they provide a gradient for each axis, modulate them for each axis independently and use frequency filters on the input. Being a software guy, I don't really have an idea if this can be done in a way that is affordable and simple enough to set up for consumer products.

If the terrorists have won depends on their goals. Which goals did they state?
I would say the governments have won against their citizens.
A substantial part of the project cost is shouldered by private companies, not taxpayers.
Freiheit macht Arbeit
So when the publisher is no longer interested in maintaining the DRM servers, I still lose my 'property'?

The original rewrite of MacOS was Copland, which used up Apples development resources for five years before it was cancelled.

Same on my Windows machine. Looks like an oversight in a new feature. That's the risk of using the beta channel, I guess.

That's been removed from the AppStore.

Using a bike lane is less safe than using a regular lane. Bike lanes exist to spare car owners the annoyance to deal with slower vehicles.

PS: I guess you can also polarize the fields. But the whole setup sounds more like a MRI scanner than a consumer device.
