The term 'too big to fail' doesn't refer to being unable to fail but rather, not being -allowed- to fail because the consequences of failure would be too catastrophic.
"Sure... Take sorting algorithms. Most people reach for a few tools, like a bubble sort. But of course, we've all seen and read about bubble sorts before, or had them presented in an entry level software class... So bubble sorts are now obvious, but were they two hundred years ago?

Yes, bubble sort was obvious 200 years ago as well. Do you remember nothing from your sorting algorithms class?
Bubble sort is the algorithm that copies the technique that card players use when they sort their cards in their hand. Card games have been played ever since the 11th century according to wikipedia, and odds are they sorted their cards the same way back then. Because bubble sort is -obvious-.
That's pretty much what the article says. They have 25,000 computers, currently 10,000 of them have Office since only a subset of the staff have any need of the software. However when changing to virtual desktops, they'd be required to buy another 15,000 licences according to their vendor, so they said fuck no.
You're listening to him because he has infact dismantled botnets before.
Notice how he says 'legally creative', this means stuff like sending the Russian Police after your ass to use rubber-hose cryptography until you shut down your 'invulnerable' botnet.
Are you drunk? The fact you can destroy something someone created doesn't mean you're better or smarter. It's just a fact of life that it's easier to destroy then create.
The thing is, even if your botnet is written perfectly. Are you perfect? Have you never told -anyone- about your malware and where you live? Are you -completely- sure that no one is monitoring your proxy?
It's really hard to answer yes to all of those questions, and that's why microsoft can be successful when they have the resources to throw around that they do.
This isn't the Swedish Child Porn filter is it? I'm not sure if that was ever actually intended to be used as a way to censor the internet, all it ever did was reroute all DNS entries for known child porn sites to the police website with a boiler plate "This site has child porn, you shouldn't go here!"
It was never political suicide in Sweden since noone expected it to actually stop pedofiles, it's just a small thing among many in their overall work, I don't think anyone actually gives a crap about it ^^
Actually France and Germany, the two biggest economies in Europe are supposed to be just fine and are probably the ones that provide most of the funding to this project. It's just Greece/Spain/Portugal/Ireland etc that nuked their economy.
Apparently the water pressure threatens to crush the bell after 24 hours.

Maybe this comes as a shock to you, but Marvel does have creative control over their movies ever since they made their own Movie Studio back in 1996 and have been making their own movies ever since 2000 (Distribution being handled by Fox).
So it's not that the evil movie studios are ruining Marvels honest attempts at making faithful comic book movies, it's that Marvel doesn't give a shit about doing faithful comic book movies as much as they care about making movies that people actually want to see.
Almost all the movies they've done since opening the Marvel Studio have been blockbuster successes which tells you that they're pretty good at what they're doing.
"A: We typically don't provide details about pricing until the game is closer to release.

For other regions that have alternative business models, weâ(TM)ll provide details at a later date. "

Obviously you've never actually read Smith.
Hmm? Almost all the stories are about stupid stuff that happens because some genius thought they would be better off if they modified the laws.

The state of the economy is pretty darn irrelevant. If the company is posting good results obviously they can afford to pay their workers more.
If you're accepting pay cuts because 'the state of the economy' even if your company is doing well, then you're an idiot.
Considering that the blockbusters outsell any other genre of movie by disgusting margins. I'd say that your theory is more then a little off.

Odds are they're not going to ask the overseas ISP, but rather ask their own ISP about who's been writing data to the site.
All campaigning for the last 24 hours -is- banned you ignorant twit.
No there's not. For instance you could have four users with 1.2, 1.2, 1.2 and 0.4. In this case the majority has above 1.0.
Tracker Seeding ratio is usually measured as a total across all files, not individual files. Trying to get 1.0 on all files is a bit silly.
However most files I download reach 1.5 within the hour.
Most trackers only require a ratio of 0.8 or 0.7 for that reason.
However I've never had a problem seeding myself into the positive.
Actually France and Germany, the two biggest economies in Europe are supposed to be just fine and are probably the ones that provide most of the funding to this project. It's just Greece/Spain/Portugal/Ireland etc that nuked their economy.
Actually it's the opposite. Doing it for the lulz reeks of psychopathy which is the kind of people we want to lock up for life.
People doing it for financial gain are rational people that can be rehabilitated into earning their money the legal way.
From what I've seen the actual result is to create more support for pervasive Cyber Laws so someone can throw them in jail.
Well, it at least made me a supporter of whatever gets those assclowns thrown off the internet.
How does Scandinavia fit into your world-view exactly?
