Kaspersky is offering up the code for review by an independent party. Okay, and I'm sure that the installer is 100% in compliance with the reviewed code.
Unless GP actually meant the District of Columbia, which is in actuality a separate, and very depraved, den of miscreants, a truly wretched hive of scum and villainy. If someone can bring DC under control, I will fucking personally grant them a Nobel prize of some sort.
TFA explains how, and at the end of the TFA: "There are various proposals to tweak BGP to stop this sort of thing happening, but as is so often the case, implementation is lagging far behind requirement." In short, it's a known problem and eventually maybe someone will care enough to fix it.
Not common. Probably easy to deduce from the summary, but out of context and prior to reading this, I would honestly be confused about the term "car pillar."
The article reads like a "cloud is bad" point of view because it brings up two unrelated issues from March and July. The last two paragraphs in this article are non sequiturs and should be stricken.
Surprisingly, no performance discussion in the first link and I can't get access to the IEEE published paper without paying. 24Tb/s would be impressive. Also, what is the expected MTBF? Better, worse, or the same as a regular tape?
The whole purpose of a corporation is to shield the "owners" from civil litigation as much as possible. As an interesting fictional analogy, I suggest picking up a copy of Cryptonomicon by Neal Stephenson. In it, the main characters drop their first startup Epiphyte and create a new one without the pending litigation, called Epiphyte(2).
It's my understanding that the only location data is that the person used a particular cell tower. It isn't the GPS location of the phone. Each cell tower stores who accessed it, and possibly for a minimum of some number of years. If this information isn't stored, the counter argument will be that the consumer will say they didn't make a particular call. This is proof they did. I honestly don't see a way around storing this information unless people are given the ability to "opt-out" coupled with the understanding that they cannot challenge the cell service billing records. With things like unlimited minutes, that's probably ok, but will not be easily enforceable by the carriers because they don't all run all the cell towers.
I don't think his claim on the 5th for the documents will stand. They aren't his testimony and thus aren't protected under the 5th. If pressed, he could get obstruction of justice for it.
Indeed, the open source movement eschews software freedom.
I don't agree. From your link, RMS says: "As far as we know, all existing released free software source code would qualify as open source." This is clearly saying that all free software is a subset of open source. Thus, open source does not eschew software freedom. Please explain the disconnect.
I'm with you, AC. A guy at work is one of those who is proud of himself for not owning a TV, and constantly yaps about how it rots your brain. He then goes and plays video games for 8 hours each night, by himself, online, with only his cats for company.
Good point. By using the semicolon before "and (3)" the authors of the law didn't forget the comma before "or distribution"; they simply didn't intend to separate packing and distribution. Or, so it's reasonable to argue.
Rebuttal: Only for stuff they owned or is now available as open source. The stuff I am most proud of is owned by a medical company and I can't show it to you. However, I would certainly be willing to talk you through it without showing you the code.
I'd extend this to be more specific: the prosecution's real job is to WIN the case. By this I mean that they will block as much evidence as possible from the defense, because it helps them win. They will do whatever they can to stack the jury in their favor (not to get a truly balanced jury). It's not about proving guilt or, God forbid, finding the truth.
Microsoft gets to play both sides of the fence, because it also receives licensing fees for versions of Windows and SQL Server running in its rivals' clouds. But the Redmond company is increasingly relying on its own cloud revenue. Microsoft's commercial cloud run rate -- a projection of the annual revenue from products including Office 365 and Azure -- topped $14 billion in the company’s latest quarterly results, a new record.
They're swiping at the cloud revenue, not the Windows/SQL product licensing revenue.
I have a friend from Sweden, who though he doesn't actually write in Swedish, sometimes the translator will translate his comment "morning" to "morningwood." It's neither him nor I who does this, but the crowdsourcing of the translator knowledge. So, the more that it relies on crowdsourcing of translations, the more odd things happen.

From TFA: It also recently introduced automatic blocks for bad and unwanted ads...
In other words, it blocks ads that don't contribute to the Google revenue stream. That's what they mean by Bad Ads.

The swindle is the click-bait article title.
The eruption of the supervolcano under Yellowstone is the basis of the Netflix show Van Helsing. Not a Zombie apocalypse, but a vampire apocalypse.
This. Exactly why I love the idea of testing all this crap out in California instead of where I live.
Mod parent up.

...the user can be sure to have all his sensitive private data entirely secure.
And, sent to China for free backup protection!

After exposing the Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility (SCIF) plans, I'm betting that's the last government contract they work on.

The more you tighten your grip, Amber Rudd, the more users will slip through your fingers.

Can you effectively teach a class with that many students? That's a ridiculously high number.

I wonder if it will convert "Morning!" to "Morningwood!" like the Microsoft text translator.
