Some "miracles" also happened a few hundreds years ago... But unfortunately nobody could catch anything on tape at the time. And now some schools teach creationism...
Too bad the only true and fortunate miracle that should have but didn't happen at the time was the invention of the video camera.
All of this is true, 100%. Maybe only the (few) people who were in the IT business from the 80's are able to understand, feel and appreciate the level of relevancy of this post. Of course recently, especially since the popularization of the Internet, Microsoft had to smooth the rough edges, and the IT 2000-newcomers - of which a lot of them know only Windows - would flag your post as FB.
Steve Jobs could play Steve Jobs (e.g. the obvious LOTR where Andy Serkis portrays Gollum thanks to CGI) and we'd see the real Jobs face at any age (and would probably cost less than Kutcher ). The question is: is it likely that having Ashton Kutcher star in the movie will generate more profit? Or, in other words, are most people interested in seeing the real (but missing) Jobs life, or the very alive Ashton Kutcher?
Most of the time you can omit A & B, Google can guess where you are, and where you want to go, based on your mails, maps accesses, time, day, birthdays of you, your family and girlfriend (Sorry, no you don't have a girlfriend), and web searches...
Thank you for your post - I couldn't have said all of this better. But saying "this is why Sony is hacked all the time" is not completely correct. Sony is hacked all the time because their IT is neglected, the staff is demotivated and the management is incompetent. They just deserve to be hacked.
Japan does not have so much habitable areas. Considering that a plant failure condemns 1000 km, how many accidents are needed to have the Japanese move to Korea/Australia? In other words, how many nuclear accidents do we need to realize that alternative solutions have to be seriously considered, everywhere?
Footballers (soccer players) in Europe earn millions of dollars yearly, they are respected stars. The fact that most of them barely know how to read, and sometimes behave like pigs doesn't matter, they're watched and admired, even untouchables for the elite. Especially in the UK. Considering the extremes to where soccer leads sometimes (esp. from supporters) the judge objectivity should be double checked - crazy supporters are everywhere.
High dynamic range . the feature exists on the iPhone 4. The device takes 3 pics in a row at different exposures, in order to improve the dark and bright areas (takes the long exp for dark, and the brights get the short one).
To be honest I don't know, but these man pages show PermitRootLogin
Specifies whether root can log in using ssh(1). The argument must be "yes", "without-password", "forced-commands-only" or "no". The default is "yes".
So, when I want to check if the port 25 is not blocked (firewall at ISP...) and is opened, instead of a simple 'telnet host 25' followed by ^D or ^C, I should write a C++ (may I use C for that, please?) program that does the same thing? You do know that some people already wrote some commands for that, right?
It's fast, amazingly beautiful (old pictures look much better), so convenient to have all (compatible) apps automatically copied to the new iPad from my iPhone.
Just disappointed that the iPhone HDR is not included (??) with the new ipad camera and I don't care about Siri (the dictation option is available, i'm happy with that)
One, the extremist/terrorist case of this week is exceptional (how many al Qaida members in France? Very few)
Two, "only born French can vote ", most of Muslims in France are 2nd/3rd generation immigrants and were born in France.
Regarding "education" (== integration), that's right, a lot of work had to be done to help these people to integrate the society in the 70's. Nothing really concrete was accomplished, and all the governments since that time are to be blamed (it is a complex matter anyway).
It has been said that GW Bush first presidency was "saved" because of the atrocious 9/11 events. Even though he certainly didn't want/hope such events, that act of terrorism was a way to legitimate more immediate and tough actions, like retaliation / wars, that are certainly easier to handle compared to improving economy and unemployment.
In France, that very tragic event from a week ago may be Sarkozy's lifeline during the coming presidential elections (May). Taking rough and strong measures immediately, and just a few weeks before the elections, may help him to win a second term. Internet freedom in France may not have been endangered if the elections were in two years from now.

Microsoft has done sooooo bad those last two decades
Right, everything Microsoft did before 1992 was wonderful...

And Kutcher even holds an apple to add to the ressemblance.
Hire competent programmers or hire cheap programmers and install a database firewall instead.
A company that base their programming on "cheap" (incompetent) programmers is likely to face a lot of problems that are not limited to SQL.

This is the way to go Mr Cook.
The contaminated area has a radius of less than 100km
That makes 30,000 km2, even worse than what the 1000km2 of my post
(the square symbol was filtered out - it was originally 1000 km2)
a process expected to last decades

Especially if the Japanese man in question is named Tanaka or Suzuki...

The 16 tricks are pretty high level, while some people still don't know that 'PermitRootLogin' in sshd_config is set to 'yes' by default...
well I occasionally use 'telnet host 25' to test the smtp port
ie6 also was written within 1k. the thing is, nobody seems surprised.
Oh you got the Winter version. The summer version will cool down.
