Dear Senator,
One of the surest ways for a Senator from California, the home of Silicon Valley, to commit political suicide is to sneak a, "Network Management Amendment" into existing legislation.
Your euphemism for killing net neutrality under the guise of preventing child pornography all the while pocketing money from the RIAA and Hollywood lobbyists will come back to bite you.
You can be sure that if this legislation passes, there are not enough minions within the realms of Hollywood and the RIAA who can vote to prevent you being ousted from office for your narrow-minded support of an initiative which hurts the public at large.
Sincerely,
If you are happy enough at the company to stay without the options, then take them and stay. However it sounds to me like you were ready to move on and if so, do it and don't look back.
Happiness has value in terms of health and life. Options are worthless, and it makes no sense to chain yourself for 5 years for nothing if it could be in trade for your happiness.
I've played all other versions of MetalGear Solid and loved them. Thought it is one of the best games on the market. Haven't played MGS 4 because I refuse to pay the high price for a PS3 - however I have a hard time believing the comments above, especially that by swotl.
I for one am interested in the piece on how they made the game and can't wait until the price on PS3s falls into the range I am comfortable with so I can purchase and play what is probably the best series of games bar none.
Unless by laughable you mean that there was no reason for them to specify this sort of ownership in the first place since since we all understand, anything on the Internet is free-game for anyone.
However that said, they are dead serious about ownership and this is one of the main reasons I post no creative content on sites I do not own. When it comes down to litigation, who has the bigger pocket? Certainly not me...
Etch the image binary data on a stainless steel tags, if the tags are big enough and the etching small enough, perhaps one tag per image. This will be recoverable by humans 25 years in the future - or aliens +100,000 years.;-)

· Score: 1, Interesting
Bash is cool and I suppose this book is decent, though I've found UNIX for Programmers and Users to be the most useful as it covers Bash, SH and KSH.
KSH rocks!
of this experiment will be if they are unable to detect the, "God Particle," the Higgs boson.
Admittedly a slim chance but if so; so very exciting as it means we humans must face the fact that the only thing that exceeds our arrogance is our imagination.
As quoted from TrueCrypt, "System encryption provides the highest level of security and privacy, because all files, including any temporary files that Windows and applications create on the system partition (typically, without your knowledge or consent), hibernation files, swap files, etc., are always permanently encrypted (even when power supply is suddenly interrupted)"
Implements a pre-boot authentication which means the TrueCrypt password has to be entered before the OS boots and can be installed and encrypt of the fly the current OS install and disk.
for my home and to address the privacy concerns have written a script which deletes my history automatically, I don't have to personally log in to do it.
In any event, I don't care if OpenDNS knows I made a lookup request for any of the sites I visit. If I really want to cover my tracks, I would not use it.
However that said, I would never, ever, recommend this service for an enterprise.
Another megalomaniac politician is found corrupt.
When will we ever become aware of what would be a true surprise, a politician who is found incorruptible? Perhaps when the people of America demand a return to a government for and by the people; instead of our current aristocratic governmental system.
This system includes the candidate many of you currently "Hope" will usher in some sort of dramatic change. NOT!
If it was directly implemented and controlled by the actual learning facility I would have to agree with your assessment.
However, the introduction of a third party, read public corporation, to provide the services raises severe doubts in my mind.
All public corporations can be guaranteed to push the limits on privacy where profit is concerned.
There is one Captcha implementation which is so far impervious to bot attacks, reCAPTCHA.
That said, there are myriad "Companies" offering human-based Captcha solving solutions, as well as freelancers out there offering similar services.
The price? Down to fractions of a penny per Captcha solved.
Ultra low prices = ultra lean operations = less employees = ultra lack of service = pissed off customers.
How stupid is the airline race to the bottom?
Flying is not a right, just like driving. Raise the prices and those who can't afford it well, take a bus, train or ship.
I am currently on my third career at 45. Not that I've had 3 midlife crisis, more like I became bored or disillusioned with a previous career and my interest was sparked elsewhere. From all of my experiences there are three things I know for sure. 1) You can't run away from boredom by switching careers as you will eventually end up in the same place. 2) Each time you switch careers you start out at the bottom and have to work your way up again. 3) Turning a hobby or interest into a profession will not guarantee you will not become bored. All that said, I still say go for it if that is what you want. But before you do, try to examine the actual underlying causes of your boredom and what it is that makes you think the grass is greener elsewhere. Once you've nailed down the causes, maybe there is something you can do to become less bored and more productive at the profession you've already spent a serious amount of time, before throwing it all away to start again, only to ultimately reach the same frustrations. Most frustrations I find are not actually with the job itself, but the people that go with it. People are people everywhere and in every profession; none are perfect and every profession has a dark, not very fun, boring side.

A misstatement is a statement that contains a mistake. Thus a correct statement used in the wrong context would not apply.
Yep - there are pools at JPL and Caltech. Go Beavers!
So, Jobs says the entertainment industry should forget about DMCA for their media; but iPhone jailbreaking is a violation of DMCA?

cause many people to realize a great new use for paintball guns.
are the control systems for the collider Internet accessible? Holy smokes has nobody learned about best security practices over there?

This has been true for years and continues to be true regardless of code-signing or sandbox techniques.

to watch the Black Hat DNS vulnerability webcast tomorrow. My only question is, what took so long?

I wonder if they also included some of those $500 Cat 5 cables? This being a Government project I'd venture to guess; Yes!
Said Eric.
