Kim Jong Il is dead. Kim Jong Un studied in Europe. Schmidt and daughter go to NK... That nuclear buzz is all a front, he still has to show the Establishment he behaves . But give him more time, and KJU will become the new South-East Gorbachev. Two years maybe.
It would be interesting to know why Boeing didn't choose Tesla in the first place, and selected a Japanese company instead. Maybe because of a "you take our batteries, we buy your planes" deal?
Not really the same environment but the Internet Chess Club has also amazing ways to detect if you are cheating. Some people were caught after they got help from the Fritz software - it seems by analyzing the way you play (long games from, say, people who are not registered FIDE IM,GM etc...), ICC is able to detect that you are playing above your abilities...
the 2-year guarantee is not free. The company selling the product still has to pay to provide warranty service, and that cost will be included in the price of the product
Certainly true. But Apple may not want to extend much the already high price gap between their products and the competition - especially for tablets and phones. For the record, many electronic shops in France (eg FNAC) do not care at all about this 2-year warranty law when selling less known laptop brands, for instance. And nobody complains (besides me:-)
News writers have to... write and sometimes they base their article on whatever data comes by without necessarily having the economical background or even common sense you are referring to. We geeks often see plots everywhere. But sometimes it's only pure incompetence, really.
Once a brand name passes into such common usage that no one regards it as a proper noun anymore, its trademark can be ruled invalid, and anyone can capitalize on all the marketing you've put into it. (That's what happened to "Escalator": The company that owned the name let it become synonymous with moving staircases, and lost the trademark.)
I see a way that could make the crank behave differently compared to the classic crank: if the metal has a bit of elasticity, thanks to the z shape some force could be stored within the "spring" (crank angle) during the top-bottom push move and released at the bottom just before the other foot takes over the push.
on the problem difficulty. In order _not_ to eliminate potentially good candidates, the time allocated to the interview problem should be - say - twice what it usually is for that kind of problem. The problem has to be timed, in order for the candidate to feel really involved in its solving ; it's an interview, not a school.
Wrong. You stereotype a whole country. Japanese eat things that they have been eating for decades or centuries, a lot of that may look strange to Westerners. Recently, Japanese have been eating a lot of western food. Den Fujita opened the 1st Mac Donalds in Japan in 1971. Because it was tasting better? Because "Fujita was amazed by its efficiency and popularity [in the US]" - read "a better way to make money". To sell his hamburgers, he said to the Japanese
The reason Japanese people are so short and have yellow skins is because they have eaten nothing but fish and rice for two thousand years... If we eat McDonald's hamburgers and potatoes for a thousand years we will become taller, our skin become white, and our hair blonde
Due to the heavy impact of the press and TV on the Japanese, this helped a lot. Price as a reason? For your information, for the price of a cheeseburger you get here in Japan a very decent and cooked traditional Japanese meal (Ootoya TBT, Yoshinoya...).
Back to the story, Japanese will not eat "anything", unless TV endorses it. If TV comes to that and you want to compare this "new meat" to something: compare it to the western hamburgers - and certainly not to the traditional Japanese food that has been eaten in Japan for a very long time.
Just a humble question since you seem to know the standards: if all APs have the same SSID but have each a different MAC address (which of course is the case by default), won't the clients require to enter the (same) password for each AP?
Or in other words, is the SSID enough to ensure an AP "unicity"? (and having all APs with the same SSID makes clients "believe" they access the same point)

To be precise, Google gave 15,708 Raspberry Pi. That's ten thousands pi / 2. Yes Google likes pi!.

It's idle when it's not syncing - i.e. at least 90% of the time (depends on settings).
Talking about Ars, there is an interesting article about Mega encryption
A bad day?
Rules are country related, besides taxes, UK makes sense for the Google-in-Europe strategists: English speaking, 3 hours from Paris, and as they say We’re one of Google’s largest engineering operations in Europe.

Europe had an express need to see what's going on over there from orbit. Hopefully, the Americans will show some curiosity and go check on site.
Not funny, sorry. But having a very serious post flagged +5 Funny is one of the worst that can happen here :-)
I gave myself infinite time
And what did you give to Fritz?
What do you play? The violin?

As long as people see "Patent pending", they feel comforted enough to buy
Interesting. Thanks for the link. The page doesn't say if the guy won the Tour de France ..

I was not used to that behavior... Things change at Microsoft!
Anyway, I hired the girl that wrote this

They should first modernize their thoughts. There are alternatives to Microsoft.
