This is like the Catholic Church telling France and Italy not to use contraception, and the birth rate falling to zero anyway. Harmless dogma. What do you expect from the Pope of Free Software? I'll use Ajax, but I still go to the Church of GNU often enough to not burn in hell.
This is going to be a big deal. Everyone under 30 is deaf, and when they find out how much hearing aids cost, and that their insurance doesn't cover them, they're going to sue. Apple, year 2050, is Philip Morris, 1990.
Actually, we drove around southern France (Tarn, Languedoc) last year and the highway patrol had just obtained some huge grant for radar guns. Consequently, there were police everywhere, and they were giving tickets to people for driving 2 or 3 km/h over the limit. Everyone was quite well-behaved.
Don't forget the trees in the middle of the highways, and cows walking down the fast lane.

Back in the last century, Usenet was alive and well and not yet overwhelmed by f-tards. You could actually make friends on alt.sysadmin.recovery or your local [a-z]*.singles group, or ask a technical question on comp.sys.something or other and get an intelligent response instead of a death threat from a fanboy.
That my friend is the biggest change in the net for me.
Google News is trying to keep the flame alive but it's a lost cause.
The DNSSEC and https/SSL certificate systems are completely different.
I mean, you *could* use https/SSL to get secure DNS via port 443 right now, all it would take would be a few lines in Apache. Now convince the rest of the world to follow your lead....
DNSSEC (and DNSCurve) are only as good as the clients that adopt it.

Bah. History files are a horrible security problem. History belongs in memory. I can count on about ten hands the number of times I have found passwords and various other sensitive information in them.
Back in college, I had a friend who was into the Society for Creative Anachronism thing. He got burgled one night while he was home, and sent the intruder to the hospital with wounds from a broadsword. You don't see that every day.
Apparently he was stark naked when he attacked, too. Dunno if he bothered to cover himself with woad before the battle.
"From each according to his ability, to each according to his need" describes schedulers more accurately. Dividing the time up equally would be like.... oh, I dunno, something about a Ferrari and hot grits...
I doesn't squish the person inside, the person inside is basically a SCUBA diver. The effects of depth on SCUBA divers is well known.
I'm not sure how long you can stay down at 2 meters without decompressing, it's not on the dive tables since most divers dive further. I would guess you could stay a 2 meters all day without having to decompress on the way up.
All day at more than 5 or 10 meters, or for any time at more than 10 meters, you'd have to start paying attention to decompression.
At more than 30 meters, things start to get complicated.
Vista was not a milestone, it was a disaster. It was a gargantuan pile of poo that was only inflicted on users because M$ threatened to kneecap PC vendors who didn't offer it with their hardware.
Say what you will about M$, they are smart enough to not screw this up a second time.
You're not going to last 5 years at any place that makes you dissatisfied enough to want to leave now.
This sounds like nothing more complicated than an option grant. Option grants almost always wait for a year or two after the grant before they start to vest, then grant a big lump of shares and accrue at monthly to yearly intervals thereafter.
As others have pointed out, your shares are pretty much worthless until the company is sold or goes public.

TFA says the paper was presented at a conference in Utah. Researchers are from San Diego.

The water would eventually re-enter the atmosphere, where it would burn up.

The lose money on every Tweet, but they make up for it in volume.
Like the poster below says, I think their value, if any, might be in the mine-ability of the info rather than the potential for ads.
Who needs a web site? Weasel out of your tickets the old fashioned way, with Photoshop and a $30 printer!

Don't for to add a hearty "f*** you!" to the end of your resignation letter! It will attest to your negotiation skills.

And as I understand it the bug was pre-IOS 12.0-something.
Looks like the Net needed a good round of forklift upgrades anyway.
Thank you Terry Childs.
Everyone knows that BGP stand for "Border Gateway Politics".
Or, what you give up in reliability you gain back in increased complexity.
Sorry, those are the only BGP jokes I know.

Police and prosecutors are overworked, so give them a break. Anything that makes their job easier!
Or some such arbitrary statistic?
