When the initial program code is a labyrinthine system, any code added on top of that mess doesn't make the whole system more reliable. Adobe should have rewritten from scratch that p.o.c a long time ago.
Agreed, the man desperately sues whatever's around and will certainly be disallowed in court, facing an army of shark lawyers. But who here will go through that real ordeal, losing what is the most precious thing to a father, his own daughter? The man is desperate and sues everything more or less close to that dreadful death. He will lose in court, but that's not the most important thing to him, he has to fight, to struggle. The lawsuit is the reflect of a huge sentiment of injustice.
Provided that if the Sun were to become a black hole, its diameter would only be 6 km... (ie 200,000 times less), the thing that gives a current-Sun size black hole is gigantic! (onetwo).
Come on, Perl was created in 1987 and saved lives of many sysadmins (anything a bit complex with strings manipulation is better done in Perl than in bash..). So, why not?
In PHP you have more terrible things, the ?: ternary operator associativity for starters, associative arrays, etc... and yet it's one of the most popular languages
Too bad MS didn't buy Yahoo at the time (Ballmer epoch). Yahoo was already manure before being bought, so maybe MS could have, for once, improved the new acquisition.
PHP got a lot of inspiration from Perl, while missing key concepts (you know this one). However, thanks to web development PHP is currently one of the most popular languages. What is your honest opinion about PHP? Are there things in PHP, missing in Perl, you regret not having thought about? Reversely, which Perl features PHP should have taken?
Actually tried to win LRC without cheating/hacking but it happened to be too hard for me! (Didn't have this book either) Don't remember exactly what was my last level, but I recall the whole LRC was very well made, and a lot of fun!
Difference being that car accidents are not deliberate acts. Shooters kill deliberately. Fast foods have been selling soda and burger crap for years that give cancer or make you obese ; but they don't deliberately want you to get cancer.
How sad in 2016 we still have to deal with dangerous religious matters. Education... Please educate children better! (and not with this "creation" crap)
No matter what you think about the civil rights aspect of our surveillance state, it is increasingly clear that it does not not work.
However, instead of calls to disband it, I'm sure there will be calls to make it even more intrusive. And there is no limit to that. If another event happens, we must not be surveilling the population enough...
Tell that to 95% of the population that doesn't have the knowledge or the background to comprehend the privacy implications of tougher surveillance. This is thanks to shocking events like this Bush was allowed to start a war.

Anything drunk or eaten above 149 F (65 C) is potentially dangerous - not only tea and coffee.
Not watching TWD anymore either - got utterly boring, but please... on IMDb
7.3 Colony
8.2 The Expanse
7.1 Killjoys
8.6 The Walking Dead
Still waiting for a decent TWD replacement...
Ass or Angel?
I agree on this one. Slashdot has to be present whenever there is some new stuff out of the ordinary, even if that can be seen as an ad.
I guess the point is that de device can copy a single card in 1/15 second (0.07 second).
Data harvesting is one thing, Data smart utilization is another one.
Actually for some reason rich people do nothing to (directly) help the poor in their own country.

Hard to understand if you don't speak German!

No name, no picture. Close enough to anonymity.
While it's good that Google rewards people who help make Chrome and the web more secure, $3,000 sounds not enough for such a critical bug.
Society judges intents.

Because the problem is less the religion than the mental balance of those who practice it.
Mass shootings involving the army is not the same thing since they're "legal" (but no less despicable, though)
