I'm sure the numbers are correct. But they only track what languages people talk about. While popularity is one reason for people to talk about a programming language, there are many others. Newer languages will get more traffic than older ones since people have more questions about them. More complicated languages will get more traffic because people have more problems with them. Also, the granularity sometimes seems off. Assembler is a good example: there really isn't a single assembler language; there are many different ones. How useful is it to lump them all together?
So this index does provide some interesting data, but you have to be careful when trying to draw any conclusions.
If the customer wishes to continue with their upgrade at the designated time, they can click 'OK' or close the notifications with no further action needed.
Isn't that exactly what they were doing already in the criticized "nasty trick" dialog?
Let me quote from the slashdot submission on that thing:
"This means dismissing the box does not dismiss the update."
And now it reads:
"If the customer wishes to continue with their upgrade [...] they can [...] close the notifications with no further action needed"
So they are "listening to user feedback" by doing the exact same thing a second time?
Then the salaries of the employees are taxed - taken from the already taxed profits the corporation made.
Um. No.
Profit is what's left when every expense has been subtracted. If you don't have anything left after paying your employees, you made no profit and don't have to pay tax for it.
Unless it's really different in the UK; which I doubt.
The biggest problem of Twitter is that it's proprietary. Twitter tells you what you can and cannot do with data from the Twitter stream. That is what broke it for me right from the beginning. I wanted to integrate it into my normal data flow, but they disallowed taking tweets and showing them in another context. And I really do not care about using yet another application to get to my news. So the idea of Twitter is intriguing; but that fact that you can only get it as a stand alone app/service breaks it.
Now, Apple is crowing about their new ad blocking features in the next release of iOS, but they will not be blocking iAds.
Really? Can you tell us your source please?
I watched the WWDC session on ad blocking. Apple will not be blocking anything by itself. Instead the feature allows apps to add content blocking rules which Safari will then use. There was no mention of an exception for iAd.
and every 6 months or so I have to blank my Mac and reinstall.
What?
I have had half several Macs in the last ten years and have reinstalled OS X once. Even on the new machines I carried over everything via Migration Assistent. I don't know what it is, but you seem to be doing something wrong. Do you run some non-standard utility application(s)?
As for the iCloud keychain problem: Did you try disabling and reenabling iCloud keychain?
But pretty much everything on iOS/OSX is broken at the moment

Trade deficit is a net loss due to trade.
No, it's not. You got something for that money after all. Or do you call every buy a loss?
You can also source the goods and services domestically, or not import optional goods at all. Both those reduce the trade loss.
Then why don't you? The EU doesn't mandate that you do not buy from within your own country.
That's why we left.
You didn't leave yet.
Whatever happened because of the decision is just in anticipation of what is yet to come. Things will get worse.
Depends on what you mean with 'reliable'.

This website does not work in Firefox without the Flash Plugin.
http://www.ssd.noaa.gov/goes/east/carb/flash-rb.html
I use this website every day.
Any suggestions.
Use the non-flash version?
http://www.goes.noaa.gov/dml/e...
Or ist that somehow not good enough? I can't compare; no Flash installed. :P
It's already an anachronism; doesn't that count? ;)
with the rumors of apple wanting to make OSX into iOS
Apple is doing no such thing.
OS X and iOS share many libraries, but the UI is very different and that's deliberate.
why does stupid bbc insist on flash player??? They know where the world is heading, no?
Change your browser's user agent to 'iPad' and videos will work without Flash.

Now they just need to get the colors right.

Absolutely! So it's a great thing that I can do what I want with my Mac.
What for? Just curious.
So... what you are saying is, there are no professional users that use OS X only?
(I hardly ever use the functions keys.)
Terr'ists using the same stuff as everyone else! Quick! Panik!
I see only one solution. Make it illegal for terrorists to use drones!
(And while we are at it, maybe we could get them to apply for a permit for each terror attack.)
If we taint the water itself and measure how far that spreads, is that really a realistic test of how hygienic the dryer is?
No, it's not. But it makes for a better headline.
Take memory management, for example - it has garbage collection, [...]
No, it has not.
Swift uses Automatic Reference Counting (ARC).
Stop developing now until you read and understood that document.
There are many, many higher level toolkits out there that are available under licenses that are much less restrictive than GPLv3.
Aaaand ... you found the problem. See, wasn't that hard, was it?
The GNU people don't recognize anything as 'free' if it's not licensed under GPL.
Instead of just trolling facebook, they are now able to troll the streets. And they don't even have to pay for it!
Great idea.

So you hold an embargo against a nation for decades and now they don't fall over themselves to buy from you?
What an ungrateful bunch!
Works great for keeping up on news headlines as well. It's like a modernized RSS reader.
You can sort of use it like RSS.
What I don't understand is the 'modernized' bit ...

Works fine for me. *shrug*
