No to set top boxes & overpriced TV. I got rid of my TIVOs because of their crappy service and support, they were better than my FIOS STBs but still they were crap. This is a fail from the get-go. SlingTV, YoutubeTV, Hulu and Netflix are more robust, already established and don't need all these encumbrances.
Just seek out one of the alternatives, it's sad that these mainstream browsers are ok with the privacy issues that tracking incurs but hey, we are the product right? I'd gladly pay for software, browsers included that doesn't track and pay a premium for actually defending my privacy without ambiguous TOS that changes every time the wind shifts.
still mumbling, sorry this is going nowhere much like your life probably. Sorry you're such a hateful little fucktard. Go out side, take a walk maybe read a book.
The UK is surrounded by water, it would seem that reverse osmosis may be a possible solution but wasn't the UK just a few years ago suffering from massive flooding? Oh wait it just happened in parts of the UK
I would have thought that this kind of event would have prompted some questions of WTF from Ethiopian Airlines, the Ethiopian authorities and Boeing. Shit at least a Read Before Flight (RBF) warning attached to every plane. I remember when the 737-600s had issues when the flaps were deployed beyond a certain amount above 300kts, it'd cause oscillation issues with the flight path but that was blasted out by all the airlines flying them as soon as it was encountered.
What went wrong is single stream and not investing in the technology.
China doesn't want mixed crap in their recyclables. Only question is why was it more economical or "green" to transport huge amounts of recyclable materials across the ocean to begin with. Companies like Waste Management essentially punted on their contractual obligations and shipped it overseas while claiming to be environmentally responsible; That's your real headline.
"Kickstarter management announced that it will be offshoring it's operations to Bangalore."
In a statement from the CEO: "We needed to focus on our core competency and will continue to make Kickstarter great by offshoring non-essential operations to a third party. This will maximize the equity of the founders, senior management and the board of directors."
Throttling and Abuse has to be a paramount concern in public APIs, it needs to be mitigated and thought out from the beginning. Shit I see it enough in enterprise APIs and it's much worse.
Ever hear of throttling? If you write an API to consume bulk data like this unintentionally or you allow API consumers to beat the shit out of your service layer than then change the API or your infrastructure! If you publish an API that circumvents your policies then you're a dipshit for publishing it in the first place or your stakeholder alignment is fucked.
Recycling is good, it's good conservation and makes good economic sense. What went wrong is single stream and not investing in the technology. We need to recycle where we can and stop just burning it or burying it, it's not that hard.
This is how the FAA has operated for years folks, get a grip. They require the aircraft manufacturers to certify their designs but again, how many incidents with this aircraft type in the US? 0
Armchair philosophers here will of course obviate Airbus when their tail fell off an A300 in Jamaica Bay in 2001 and they did nothing about it. Oh remember when Airbus had to change all their angle of attack sensors after that A400M crashed while testing? They washed the plane and water behind the sensor froze at altitude, giving erroneous information to the flight control system.
It's not Boeing or Airbus it's the culture that technology will solve all the problems. Yes, more testing always helps but design flaws exist in every system out there. I fly every week in Boeing, Airbus, Bombardier, Embraer and even McDonnell Douglas planes. Your risks are all the same regardless of tech or age.
Move on, Boeing will fix this and another tidbit unless they can find criminal misconduct or negligence, the passenger losses are fixed by international agreement.
Lack of Air gaps? USB thumb drive attack? Dumb management control system design?
n a subsequent update posted on the company's Facebook page, Norsk Hydro said the cyber-attack did not impact "people safety" and that smelting plants across its vast international network were "running normally on isolated IT systems," although in a manual mode, without the aid of its computer controlled systems.
bribery = payola cheating on tests = hey johnny, here's the answers
It's all about leverage and how much it costs to get that leverage. The fact they were committing fraud somehow didn't cross their minds. I suspect plea deals to be the norm for all but the biggest defendants and they'll wish they'd saved the cash for the team of lawyers they'll need to represent them.

sorry all I got was "mumble mumble" you'll never get anywhere in life like that.

Let me clarify it for you:

I wish these experts would get on the same page #FFS
Eggs are bad, Mmmmkay?

How can you call any use of an API that you published as abuse? If you do, you're doing it wrong.

This ought to be really interesting.

It isn't what you know or how hard you work.
It's who you know, how much payola you're willing to give them and how much leverage that buys you.
Which means you'll never have one.
