People don't want the exact same interface across all devices any more than they'd want the same type of vehicle in all situations.
Though at a high level, you DO have the same interface across cars -- 4 wheels, steering wheel in the same location for your country's side of the road, pedals in the same configurations.
I guess that's analogous to app to app consistency.
Anybody in that state has grounds for a racial discrimination suit. Anybody above the bottom group has a case for requiring a higher score than someone else, thus discriminating based upon their skin color. Anybody in the bottom group has a case for insulting them by not treating everyone equally.
Yes, death sentences are punishment. What's wrong with that? Why should they get a (relatively) cushy life in prison when they deprived at least one other person of their life?
If you use *only* eye-movement, then perhaps (though you could definitely do something like "look at and pause a bit before it acts upon your look"), but just like with the original use of the mouse, it could be combined with the keyboard or other input device.
Since I'm basically always looking at what I'm interacting with, at least briefly (touch-typing being one big exception), using my eyes as part of the interaction UI is perfectly reasonable, if done well.
From what I heard on the NBC News (podcast), he offered to resign to Obama, who took a day to accept the resignation. Doesn't sound like a firing to me.
" Securing your code (making it not fail under the weight of random exploits) doesn't slow things down." of course it does. Checks take resources.
You don't always need to "check" things to make them more secure. Things like address randomization, making code read only, etc. Yes, there are ALSO checks (e.g. buffer checks).
You're not the kind of person who goes and buys everything at the "dollar store" because "oh, it's just a dollar", even though you're paying twice as much per ounce, are you?
(Don't me wrong, while I don't go to them often, they DO sometimes have good deals.. but you DO have to compare the per unit price. Though for some things I would buy the larger one at the same unit price, if it meant less packaging. Sometimes there's more packaging [every single item in the huge bundle individually packaged], sometimes not.)
But they already have socialized medicine⦠aren't they already cheap (i.e. "free")? (Yes, I'm avoiding the fact that it really means everyone ELSE is paying for it. Why people should subsidize ANYTHING relating to other people getting their jollies mystifies me.)
"The counsel said, 'Well, it's sold clearly as a decoration, not a confection. People don't eat it.' And I said, 'Come on!' And he said, 'No, people don't eat it.' And I said, 'I'll call you back in a half hour.'
"I took the dragees and I went across the street to the Superior Court and into the chambers of all six of the Superior Court judges. I showed them the jar. I came back, called counsel on the phone and said, 'I just went across the street. I did a straw poll of all the judges in my county, and every one of them has eaten these things. And one of them, I won't tell you which one, always picks the dragees off the cookies and eats them first. Now, you decide which judge you want to be in front of to make the defense argument that no one eats them.' And he said, 'Oh.' "
Well, a company selling a GPL'd program don't have to give the source to anyone who ask, only the people/companies it distributes it to. So you can't compile it since you don't have it unless you pay for it.
Can't the people/companies it distributes it to legally give the source out too? That doesn't seem to be much of a deterrent?
Also, even if this is true, this would seem to only apply to programs that they wrote IN THEIR ENTIRETY. If they did that, why would they GPL it if they were also trying to limit source distribution to people/companies it distributes to? Why not just license the proprietary source to their licensees the same way?
There have been ads in software you pay for for a long time. I think various home versions of racing games had different paid ads on billboards for different versions.
Even Pole Position in the arcade had real brands on the billboards.
(BTW, I hate "regular" TV ads and avoid them with a passion, but the ads in the various Zynga iPhone games I play are either tolerable (static ads) or annoying but not bad enough to get me to pay even a piddly $.99 yet (the video ads that play for a few seconds until you can skip them). Product placement in TV shows rarely bugs me, and live ads in podcasts can even be entertaining, but I still skip the canned ads before/after them that show up on some podcasts.)
Went in at right about 7am, normally I've been around #60-70 in my district, this time the line was out the door of the small church and I was #100. Was very sad I wasn't asked to prove who I was other than I knew a name and and address off the top of my head.
But wait, people keep protesting the Voter ID laws. (I think it's TRUE that (1) there seems to be virtually no voter fraud, and (2) some of the pro-Voter ID law people appear to be for the laws for prejudicial reasons⦠I still think one should have to show ID to vote. EVERYONE should.)

I don't use Windows. I thought you HAD to go to the pane interface upon booting up.

Argh.. indirectly *make* code more secure.
But doesn't making "exploits less likely to work [in] their intended way" *indirectly* making code more secure?
Stringer Bell, is that you?
Three more coming out..

OH, you didn't mean THOSE kinds of virtual machines..

Cheaper per unit.. You knew what he meant.

Yeah, I didn't RTFA, but at least in the Fry's/Best Buy ads of the week, the drives seem to have come down to about the same price.
There was a 4 TB drive at Fry's for under $200 a few weeks ago. External 2 TB drives are showing up at $89.

I was just making a stupid joke.. I guess I should have said "So the Supreme Court Of Canada found the patent hard. . . to understand."

Heat it enough, and you can.

But if someone can just compile your software, why are they going to pay for it?
(No, not pay for SUPPORT.. Pay for the software itself.)
Apparently your studying wasn't efficient enough.
