Some police tend to write tickets, or even arrest people just to give a hard time. Maybe it is sometimes out of ignorance of the law.
I had a friend given a ticket for flashing his headlights, at 2:30 pm. The ticket was for using his high-beams at night when there is oncoming traffic. They just didn't like people being warned about the speed trap.
Even if an arrest is in violation of the law, to win a lawsuit on it, you have to show that it was not only improper, but that the cop knew it was improper -- a high standard to meet. In the meantime, you are still locked up, have to pay an attorney. But on the good side, you get to make new friends when locked up.
Even when right, you should be nice to people who carry guns and give you a personal invitation to jail. Even if he/she/it is an asshole.
They talk about RDP for Mac, but they are only talking about the client. There is a beta version of Mac Remote Desktop that allows an RDP client to connect to a Mac.
I am surprised that it took this long for China to block the latest trick by Google. Who didn't see this coming the moment it was mentioned in the press?
Of course this is or would become a cat and mouse game. China blocks, Google counters, China counters Google's counter.
I have managed to collect from overseas spammers. You could always forgive some of the amount, file a 1099 on the spammer and let the IRS go after them for tax fraud.
Yeah, one lawsuit for $7,000 plus another $50,000 in attorney fees will not break them. What about 100 more of their spam victims filing the same type of lawsuit?
I have a spammer, Dev8 Entertainment, AXS Charge, Datatima Ideas Limited, Liquid Minds, East group, Techie Group, Emanuel Gurtler, and David Szpak (all alter-egos) that I am litigating my third lawsuit against. They decided to default the last two because those judgments totaled only $200k. Since I had a $2M judgment,they decided to fight it.
Of course they are in default again, and this time it will stick. The last time, their lawyer, John DuWors, lied to the Court and claimed that they never received notice of any of the lawsuits. I wonder if the California Bar will suspend him for perjury.
Not true. I have problems with hypocrisy and lies.
I find it hypocritical that Mexico complains about US immigration policy when it is much more strict when people come into Mexico.
When someone comes into the USA and work illegal, they don't pay taxes, but they do take the benefits of being here. This also depresses the wages for the people who are legal.
They talk about the need for a program for migrant farm workers, but they fail to mention the H1A visas. That is because if the farm workers come under that program, they are required to provide housing and medical for the workers and not pay them $2/hour.
My wife is here legally, because we followed the law. Is it fair that people who have been waiting for years to come legally are allowed in after the people who broke the law are given amnesty? There was a one time amnesty before, and afterwards the law was to be strict enforced. Now, again the no borders crowd are asking that there would be a one time amnesty program? How many one time amnesty programs should there be?
Your statement that Mexicans are not stealing jobs is another fallacy. So what if it is a crappy job? What about college students? Should they be able to take these crappy jobs while in school so they can pay for their books? I remember in the late 80s they were offering p/t jobs at McDonalds for $10.00/hour.
People claim that Mexicans take jobs that legal residents don't. The correct statement is that Mexicans takes jobs at a pay rate that legal residents won't take. Of course, this is in part because they don't pay the taxes, as many of the jobs are under the table so they don't pay taxes on them.
In Mexico, if you work illegally, they will prosecute you. To attend school, you MUST show evidence you are legally able to attend school.
There are two words to consider, illegal and legal. Can you tell the difference?
Wasn't it in the New Adventures of Speed Racer? Of course, it was first in the Fantastic 4, but even though it was called the Fantasticar, it was not really a car.
There was two similar programs in Boston (in the late 70s, early 80s.)
I can't recall the name of the programs. The first would allow a high school senior to spend their entire year as a freshman in college, and it would count both as their freshman year in college and senior year in high school.
Another was the open campus program, it would allow a senior (I did it both senior and junior years) to take college courses as a regular student and receive credit in both high school and college. The student still was required to attend classes in high school.
First of all, 30-40,000 lines of code is not lots of code. Try, 250,000 of code.
To start, use a good programming editor/environment (Xcode, Vslick, Visual Studio, etc.) that gives you the ability to easily go to definition or references to variables, functions, structs and such. Run some sort of profiler or flowchart type program on it to get a high level view of the code and how it fits together. If you can get the person(s) who worked on it before you to give you an idea of it fits together.
Of course if it was granted, it would be licensed so it would not stop spam. But...... the licensee of the patents would be identifiable, hopefully allowing the identification of the spammers.
Recently in the second Circuit, it has been ruled that gmail users do have an expectation of privacy in their e-mail account. http://online.wsj.com/public/resources/documents/Bear1.pdf. Here the Court ruled that the warrant was too broad since it didn't restrict the inspection of e-mails that were unrelated to the investigation.
In light of both rulings, it may not prevent the government inspection, but could be grounds to suppress. Furthermore, the Stored communications act prohibits a warrant for this type of information unless, "offers specific and articulable facts showing that there are reasonable grounds to believe that the contents of a wire or electronic communication, or the records or other information sought, are relevant and material to an ongoing criminal investigation."
There is a terminal server for the Mac, Aquaconnect (www.aquaconnect.net) that allows you to put more than 100 users on an XServe and use netstations for $100/each. You ony have to administer accounts on the 1 Mac.
I was in Beijing in 2002, Shanghai in 2002, Hong Kong in 2009, and Hong Kong, Shenzhen, and Guangzhou in 1996.
At no time, they searched my computer. At no time, they had me take off my shoes in the airport. In 1996, the only thing that I noticed was television black-outs during the Hong Kong news broadcasts (before the return to China.)

After the collision they repaired each other. That is where the confusion came from.
What about duct tape and paper clips?
MacGyver would not approve without those items included.
It is a shame, a entire generation that would not recognize MacGyver if they met Richard Dean Anderson.
I still have to punch holes in punch card (yes 1) in ebcdic. I have to glue the card back together for each line.

It is called Mac Remote Desktop (surprised?) There is some information about it at http://www.aquaconnect.net/mac-remote-desktop.php
Aqua Connect also has a version for Mac Server, called Aqua Connect Terminal Server. More information is at http://www.aquaconnect.net/
Most countries require you to carry papers when you visit the countries.
I thought the Nazis were decried because of death camps, not requiring papers.
Was he being charged for not giving passwords or tampering with the computer system?
It is not tampering to do nothing. I cannot be charged with murder if I watch you shoot yourself in the head. Even if I am asked to stop you.
However, if I hand you the gun and bullets, then it might be assisting a suicide. Keep in mind, suicide is not illegal, only attempting it is.

I have been ordered by IBM to stop using WTF and RTFM as that use violates the patent.
I think that Slashdot should stop using the WTF on their page before IBM sues.
I don't know about the lights, but don't get me angry. You won't like me when I am angry!

The professor in Gilligans Island already determined this. Old news, nothing new here.
I use my attorney's office for my information. You can always use a P.O. Box, or a mail service center.

People who do web sites are not programmers, unless you write it in C,FORTRAN, or assembler!
Be a real programmer.
