After 10 years or so, one would think that if it really was a lot better, at least half of all products out there would be Agile-based by now?
No. Most companies don't understand Agile so they're either afraid of it or they implement their own flavor which is usually far from Agile.
And here's some of the stuff I heard managers/CEOs say about agile:
Agile may be better than waterfall, but what would we do without all that documentation??!?!?1?? How would the project survive and how could the developers write code without shitloads of documentation? Who the fuck do those computer programmers believe they are when ask to be considered human beings? Everybody knows you can't trust your employees with anything, so you have to make all the decisions because they're either incompetent, they might steal your code or they might intentionally break it. Waterfall WTF! </sarcasm>
The man-in-the-middle is there, but he can't do anything, because of the way SSL works. There is not man-in-the-middle attack. Very good question though!
And you get +1 funny instead of insightful. This is how reliable the "online experience" is. Good luck explaining to your boss why "someone on the Internet" called you a rapist.
I have unlimited data transfer at 5Mbit/sec for $10/month. At least that's what I get from my ISP and they explicitly allow me to run any services I want (I just can't send mail through port 25 without making a phone call first and even that takes only a few minutes and it's a one-time activation). This is in Romania.
From all of the above comments, I see that people are FINE with stickers, they just don't know how to take them off and they complain about the glue. They don't feel "forced" (as TFA suggests). I actually keep the stickers for as long as possible (until they get dirty) because it gives me the feeling of "new":)
In support of the parent post: can you even trust your own hardware? I remember a recent story on Slashdot regarding some common computer hardware (a video or a network card) had its firmware infected with a trojan. And even more recently, a company accidentally released a software update that was infected with a virus (the machine they used to compile was infected, so the compiled.exe got infected as well).
They're not hypocrites. It clearly says that the name was borrowed, not stolen. I'm sure they're honest people and they'll pay the school sooner or later. We must consider Facebook to be innocent until proven guilty and, until now, there is no proof that they won't pay... right?
I don't understand TFH / TFS / TFA. Are we talking about local privilege escalation by overwriting the memory space owned by processes running as root?
The most hated part of IPv6 is that people (like you) have no clue what they're talking about. If you still don't know what I'm talking about, read http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPv6_address#Notation and you'll learn that you CAN use 2001:0618:71A3:0801:1319:0211:FEC2:82DC but, most likely, you won't have to, because you'll just need 2001:0618:71A3:: and if you still bitch that it's still "too long" then come up with a better, permanent solution instead of complaining.

From other comments: see geociti.es and geocities.ws
That was from IBM, not MS. Look it up, really!
What about cookies and IP address?

I say we just declare that all existing swear-words are NO LONGER swears. And we just invent new ones.
Yes, he should have included ALL the surveillance methods ever used and ever to be used. Just a few scary samples isn't enough (at least for you...)

In another part of Europe, it can taken away entirely for the minor "crime" of being accused of copyright infringement.

No, they're not. They're hoping to get as many settlements as possible.

At least do it right, dammit! It's all your book are belong to us ("book" not "books").

So you finally stopped all those pirates that were putting you out of business...
My accounts have been getting more offers of narcotics
And what can you recommend me?
[..] I do find it quite difficult to [..] constantly download [..]
There's an easy fix for that problem!

Yes, the headline is a bit long. It should have said "San Francisco Just As Guilty In Childs Case"
How long will it take until the Sun enters the "quiet period" again? How "loud" will it be until then?
Sometimes it would take a half hour for me to help someone figure out a new password.
Why didn't you bother to find a programmer to write you a password generator?
And you deserve to be stuck, because you shouldn't authenticate from those places anyway!
And stress is in NO way induced by the huge amount of information available on the Internet.
