She "may have been" selling her property for profit, but I guess that is enough. Not to mention she was already leaving the store with her legally purchased property.
If the corps aren't expected to pay the taxes in the first place, why muddy up the system with wasted effort? Either a tax should be paid or shouldn't be paid. Not paying it should be tax evasion.

Seems the source from which I was remembering was a bit slanted. After a hair bit of digging, it seems MS was forced by the EU to work with SAMBA because of anti-trust issues.
Microsoft actually invited several of the SAMBA team over, had 2 senior engineers on hand to answer any questions they had about SMB and even gave the SAMBA team their own VM environment complete with Win7/Win8/Linux to run SMB2/3 compatibility testing. Lots of questions about RDMA, Interface teaming, and multi-pathing.
The SAMBA team said they received a lot of insight and understanding from their time with the MS engineers and were impressed and excited.
I'm not sure Microsoft is too concerned about SAMBA 4 being released.
During a 3-5 year stretch during this recession, Intel was the ONLY company with fabs that kept R&D flat. Everyone else made drastic cuts. There is a lot of ground to cover.
True, but MIPS/Watt is highly correlated with transistor size, which is why people care about size. Plus transistor size usually predicts prices. As a given process matures, eventual pricing approaches the cost of the silicon, which is mostly fixed. Transistor size directly affects the size of a chip.
Small town ISPs have installed time-and-time-again, starting with NOTHING, and have paid off all debt and are turning profits after 5-7 years, while charging less money, offering faster speeds, and offering better quality service.
If these large ISPs can't do it, maybe we need thousands of smaller ISPs that can do it.
Cable companies may not have exclusive rights to right-of-ways, but they don't need to ask for permission of property owners either. Naked ISPs that aren't badged as Telcom/Cable must get permission from every property owner. Well, this way in large much of the USA.
One experience I also have is that the Exception handling in C# is horrible because it's slow. And that can cause code that's more complicated than necessary. E.g. when adding data to a Dictionary class you can have two approaches - either first check if the item exists or expect an Exception to be thrown.
You don't need to use exceptions. Most if.Net is this way. Exceptions are for "exceptional" situations.
Exceptions are slow because the actually cause a context switch. try/catch has absolutely no overhead except in the case of an exception occurring. No branching from checking values if you don't have to.
That being said, exceptions should be an extreme corner case..Net offers plenty of ways to validate without using exceptions.
What about the case where you allow the end user to use any library that implements a given interface? What if the implementation of that interface has custom errors that could not be known at design time?
Google fiber has "fiber huts", but they don't have the Ethernet ports in there. These huts only work as a central location to aggregate the fiber. Each house has a direct 1Gb fiber Ethernet connection back to the datacenter. From there they plug into their own Ethernet port in a switch.
How many ports per switch and the up-link speeds of those switches, I would like to know.
I know some several companies sell active-ethernet chassis with 960 ports 2Tb-3Tb of back-plane, and 400Gb-800Gb of uplink.
Once you start getting to these speeds, averages start to become predictable and you don't see spikes.
I've seen netgraphs of 2Tb/s internet-exchanges that had perfectly smooth bandwidth usage that was cookie cutter from day-to-day. Congestion is easy to handle at these speeds, because you don't get sudden changes in bandwidth usage.
A new report, conducted jointly by Ericsson (NASDAQ:ERIC), Arthur D. Little and Chalmers University of Technology in 33 OECD countries, quantifies the isolated impact of broadband speed, showing that doubling the broadband speed for an economy increases GDP by 0.3%.*
A 0.3 percent GDP growth in the OECD region is equivalent to USD 126 billion. This corresponds to more than one seventh of the average annual OECD growth rate in the last decade.
A 100x increase in broadband speed should pay itself back in about 1 year.
Hospitals are not allowed to turn away people with life-threatening conditions even if they can't pay
People fake having an issue so they can get "Screened". They still get their yearly checkup, they just don't have to pay for it. Our current system encourages fraud.
Diesel is so bad at starting on fire, you don't start the diesel on fire, you start something else on fire and let it sit with direct flame contact to the diesel for quite a while. You really need an established fire already to get diesel to start. Unless the building is already on fire or someone is lighting up cloth and dropping it in the stair well, you probably won't get any action.
I am kind of interested to know what kind of fire hazard it would be. I would think the fumes and chemical part would be worse. When burning brush piles, we used diesel instead of gasoline because is burned slower and we had it on-hand from the tractor. It actually burned so slowly, it was hard to get it to light. It usually took a few news papers on fire and a couple of minutes before the diesel got hot enough to actually do something.
Removing references to data at a point in time is easy , what the EU also wants is content based filtering that can filter variations of the same data.
I can say, remove my phone number from all of your data. FB must also not allow your phone number to get posted. say my phone number is 555-1234, then someone else posts " 5(5)5 1 2 34" a year after my request. FB better make sure it does get posted lest I find out and sue FB for not honoring my request to not allow my phone number to be posted.
This is why FB, Google, et al are so pissed. It is impossible.

My guess is that a registered ISP must do proper logging and work with law-enforcement when it comes to data requests, otherwise face being fined/etc.
They're in your mind. I'm selling high quality aluminium foil hats for only $19.99. Act now and get another for free!
What?
Supporting old hardware is not scaleable until eternity. You have to draw a line at some point.

Most people develop and destroy minor cancers throughout their entire life, a little known fact that seems to be forgotten by the majority.
Yep. Say hello to cancer caused by AIDS because your white cells can't fight off the cancer as it normally does.
Seems the source from which I was remembering was a bit slanted. After a hair bit of digging, it seems MS was forced by the EU to work with SAMBA because of anti-trust issues.
Yes, MS is probably quaking in their shoes.

It takes little effort to sign but adds more security to your system. Maybe not a lot more, but more non-the-less.

80% of the USA population lives in dense metro areas. I fail to see how average density over the entire country has anything to do with anything.
In other news, the universe is large, so no point in deploying fiber internet.

When your rotting copper infrastructure is reserving 90% of its bandwidth for TV, yes, bandwidth is a limit resource. :P
