Patents like this are incredibly stupid. It ostensibly doesn't matter who filed them, except that the higher profile the owner is, the more damage it does. The downfall of the patent should be celebrated.
Not being from the UK, are there targeted or magnet schools in this "free school" system? Because if I were to set up a small school teaching just programming, or painting, or woodworking, why should I be forced to also teach evolution?
One might argue that their behaviour is still perfectly legal. However, what you said was that it was "fair", which isn't a legal term, and when they're clearly playing the system and paying minimal tax for the facilities they're using, we can quite reasonably say that it's "unfair".
Is it fair when you shop around and go to a store that isn't in your neighborhood to buy something? The closer store you didn't go to opened specifically because you (and others like you) live in the area, and you're depriving them of your business.
Google shops around and finds the best deal on incorporation & monetary services that various countries & jurisdictions provide. If they actually do things illegally, then yeah throw the book at them. You could also argue that countries should remove certain legal allowances and deductions. But Google and other companies again are literally just shopping around to find the best deals on the products and services they need and using them.
Well yeah, that'd be a customer facing item where you want art/layout types working on it. The discussion started on collaborating "important documents" which doesn't quite evoke that.
Not to belabor the issue, but unless you're talking about customer-facing marketing materials, I'm sorry but I just don't see the problem even when printing is involved.
We of course do our fair share of printing here, too, when it comes to meeting handouts and document signing.
Right, but in keeping with the spirit of this intent, policing the extraction of personal information from broad data might have a better chance of getting reasonable legislation than policing its storage. Plus, you might be able to catch someone's use of info easier than its storage of info.
As TFS says, even if you delete certain portions of data, you can infer the holes from other sources in proper Big Data fashion, so outlawing storage of particular information is not very effective anyway.
However, I'm not sure any of these sort of judgement calls can be properly encoded in legal policy.
Why on earth would you be using pixel-perfect layout and CSS in important content-centric shared-editing documents? The basic format is very simple, and everything can read & write it.
My takeaway is that Apple is now innovating less than Microsoft, moreso than Microsoft is now innovating more than Apple. Microsoft's weird experiments, and the forcing of it down the throat of the market, isn't much of a deviation for them.
Yeah, like not being in the mafia. Tell me that's not what this guy sounds like. I think this is revealing of pretty well-known ideas of what the CIA thinks like.
It's been about 5 or 6 months since I switched to using predominantly cash. Yes, it's a little less convenient in some contexts (though sit-down restaurants are faster, just leaving money on the table instead of waiting for a receipt to sign), but I simply do not want to be 100% tracked like this.
While the polls still were able to show which side the vote went to, it seemed to me that the final tally ended up being a lot less close than the polls were indicating.
The OP said "that happened faster than expected", since the polls seemed to show it was going to be a long, uncertain night of tallying votes.
The recent 32-bit ARMs supports LPAE, so you can have over 4GB no problem. That's still running a 32-bit address space per app, which would probably still work fine for a mobile environment.
Unfortunately, that sort of shift requires constitutional changes, which is a Really Big Deal in process, support, and cost. Plus, the 2 principal parties have no incentive to do that.
If I recall correctly, some of the founding fathers were later arguing for a more proportional system, seeing a 2-party convergence even in their time.

Clothing has too little sun facing surface area to produce the amounts of electricity to be more useful than existing battery tech.
Not to mention that clothing is bent and rumpled in ways that would break optic fibers, even just in normal wearing.

Amiga monitors had both RGB and standard analog video inputs, including the split s-video variant that the c64 outputs.

Yes, there is some truth in what you say.

My bet is on "Hand-crafted workmanship! (we had to manually solder extra jumper wires in these units to fix early production bugs)"
He's the prez, meaning he gets a $400,000 salary plus other expense accounts, and has plenty of money to pay for gifts out of pocket.

What's wrong with HTML? We use that a lot.
He also works at SAP, and his view of developers is from the big corporate drudgery perspective.
I even have robots that can draw portraits, too, when my digital camera and printer work in concert.

Ah, the best idea so far: Poor college students. Pay them to hold servers up.

I/O bound servers, where a more powerful CPU would be mostly idle anyway.
Web hosting, data warehousing, networking infrastructure, and the like do fall that way pretty often, though obviously there are exceptions.
Along with the other examples so far, MIPS was the architecture of choice for the supercomputer company SiCortex, which I was very sad to see go.
Why is it so hard to find one strong candidate?
I've heard that most of the would-be better candidates did not want to run against an incumbent, but instead wait for 2016.
