As a Google programmer you have to submit code with a subtle bug once in a while, tell your friend about it, he'll report the bug and you get half of the money.
There were many observers from different countries during the Iranian presidential elections, has anyone of the observers shown evidence that there were enough serious frauds to declare the election void?
We're already going through the same scenario as OpenGL 3.0 - lots of years spent on essentially a bare minimum of changes which in the end pissed off and disappointed practically everyone.
Another coincidence, C++ is the primary language of OpenGL.
These costs are only included in TCO calculations by smart customers, the other customers trust corporations like Microsoft, because they are dumb and/or bribed.
The purpose of this is not to let people know what's going on but to feed people selective information and thus (among other things) instigate them for certain actions, do I need to remind you who controls (most of) the media and how it's used to feed the "right" news in the interest of those who control them? It's old school.
[Facebook], Microsoft, Google, IBM they all fight with each other just because they're in the same field and at the same time they're also all puppets in the hands of CIA and other agencies.
Is it still news nowadays that a big IT/social company poses a thread to another big one and hence they fight each other?
For a web developer 93/100 is more than enough, such a (high) score is well suited to do everything you'd expect from a modern browser. The need to hit 100% is overrated, if you're a web developer you know what I mean.
Firefox takes the approach of "what really matters" to web developers and users and that is not only passing the acid 3 test but also "next-generation" (HTML5) features like web workers (threads), native video, animated SVGs, Canvas and other stuff that other browser(s) that hit 100/100 aren't yet able to do for now, but which is much more welcome than the remaining 7% of the acid test.
There are ppl who know/remember that GM back in the 90' teamed up with the oil companies (which paid GM a lotta money) and eagerly downplayed the value and possibilities of the electric cars, lobbied to kill them and they succeeded.
It turns out in the long run GM was playing against its own interests - the oil companies it teamed up with are doing fine and GM is bankrupt.
So eat what you deserve GM, short term profit and greed cost ya!
Maybe it's time to put customers first.
Afaik Btrfs, which is roughly the Linux version of ZFS, has been started by Oracle (developers) and then embraced by Red Hat and alikes. So I'm wondering what are Oracle's plans about Btrfs after acquiring ZFS through Sun?
In countries like China pirated copies of windows come close to 99%. End of piracy will mark the death of Microsoft as we know it today.
Microsoft is very lucky there's lots of piracy, otherwise by now this company would only have been an afterthought.
When Ballmer announced that this year Microsoft will spend a lot of money on innovation (the Microsoft way) in Russia I suddenly remembered Russia's serious commitment to its national OS.
Now I know my suspicion came true, I knew Microsoft's commitment is there to kill another Linux move, that they would bribe officials which, like in Spain, would result in a sudden drop/lack of interest to move to Linux, and that's exactly what happened.
One must have less than 2 brain cells to not understand what's going on.

"Fears of the U.S. exerting undue influence seem to be justified." More analytical judgment: bears shitting in the woods seems to be true.

I can understand why JSF is crap, but why would you call the F-22 that way?
With bio-nano-technology you'll soon be able to replace your videocard by pulling the plug into your ass.
Anyone?

Why ru playing the stupid and angry moron?
I'm listening to him only when he talks about the kernel.

Another reason to not use any fat.

It's Firefox not FireFox, by now it should be clear to everyone including whoever wrote the title.
