I just finished reading the "The A-Z of Programming Languages" series on Computerworld (found out about it in here), and now the next article in the series just came up and it's a chat with the creator of Yacc. Coincidence?
On many airplanes, there is a toilet right next to the cockpit door. What about passengers that really needs to use the toilet, and it's busy? They may act nervous and sweat and behave otherwise unusual.
The MPAA does not differ between downloads from Sweden and from abroad, which I think is not going to fly well with the court. Unlike US courts that (apparently) doesn't care about things like national jurisdiction, Swedish courts do (at least I hope so).
So an adult couple having consensual (if unorthodox) sex is ok, probably also the couple taking pictures of themselves. But as soon as the pictures are taken, and on the film/memory-card, the couple are suddenly criminals due to the possession of those pictures they just taken?
In Stockholm, and maybe in other Swedish cities too, when there is work where they have to open up the street, they also lay down fiber. This fiber is then owned by the city, and anyone can "rent" bandwith on the fiber. Community owned, but since anyone can use it there is competition where it counts.
Much of the Internet backbone in Sweden is run by SUNET, the Swedish university computer network, or owned by TeliaSonera with strict rules to allow fair usage.
How does it really work, do they first come up with a cool sounding abbreviation, and then try to find out what it can stand for? Or do they make a list of names, and try to make an abbreviation from that?
Do you think that nobody works at the yacht-building shipyard? That the marine industry isn't filled with those blue-collar, union jobs like wielders and machinists? That none of these people have families? From an economics only perspective, employees contributing to luxury industries have a far lower value to the economy as a whole. They produce less useful goods per person. The materials they use are vastly more expensive.
Not only that, but the yacht is probably not build in the USA which means that the money spent is virtually lost (from a US standpoint).
Things are happening in the case against The Pirate Bay. One of the police officers involved in the investigation now works for Warner Brothers in Sweden. See here for more info.
Yes we have plenty of nukes. But rockets that can propel something out of Earth's orbit are in very short supply.
Then why not do as in the book The Hammer of God by the late Arthur C. Clarke, and intercept it far out? I'm sure that quite a lot of nations could pony up some money for a project like this.
I don't think a few disgruntled Swedish users are going to have much of a legal or economic impact on Cogent.
Telia is part of Telia-Sonera, which is big in all of the Nordic countries and also has presence in the rest of Europe. Also, many big companies here use Telia, for example Ericsson. So it's not just "a few disgruntled Swedish users."
We should be encouraging them to develop a style of their own, not trying to force it down their throats on our terms.
For a good example of this, look at what happened to Russia when the western world tried to push Instant Capitalism and Democracy on them. Turned out not so good.
Knowing how it is stored on disk, wether it is the new XML format or the old binary format, doesn't matter. The old binary format does not tell how to actually "display" it.
"Once Defendant converted Plaintiffs' recordings into the compressed.mp3 format and they are in his shared folder, they are no longer the authorized copies...'"
I haven't read TFA (hey, this is/. after all), but how was this folder shared? Was it only himself that had access to it? His family? The whole world? Did he even know the folder was shared? To me it looks like the old "making available" argument again.

And for those that want to read the interview, it can be found here.

According to Wikipedia, the lake is at 60.964 N and 101.86 E. Might make it easier to find in Google earth.
I wonder if this can be combined with the iLoo?

Well I prefer Meet the Feebles.

Lets hope it works better than MapPoint...
And it's not the only time they screw up either.
So it's not just "a few disgruntled Swedish users."
A language that I have toyed with from time to time, and that is very dynamic, is Relative Expression Based Object Language. Well worth to give it a try.
Yes I got the joke, but isn't the big problem that you need some way to prove that you really are the one you say you are?

And AmigaOS long before that.
