I have a FB placeholder account. If anyone wants to friend me from the old days, I log in and approve it, the log out. People can get in touch with me easily, but I don't have the annoyance of FB tracking.
iOS and Android have big enough flaws that if another group finds that magic bullet, they can win big. The design problem is they have to come at from the approach of competing against and with the big boys and not just making a mobile OS that works. There are plenty of failed OS projects out already that "work."
To me it implies either some sort of intrusion attempt or code-and-go design. Seems like the definition war has been lost on that front. Either way, these kids are testers, not hackers.
Coming to the industry relatively late in life, I've seen a youth fascination with the deconstructor rather than the constructor side of the industry that probably isn't doing any of us any good.
I'd like to see someone come up with a viable tablet/laptop hybrid. Either with swiveling screen that can be closed with the keyboard hidden or exposed. Maybe even a detachable full keyboard. I think it's been done before, but now that tablets are more successful, there's probably more of a market. Maybe gambling with laptop form factors is higher risk that with cell phones, but it would be great to see the same level of experimentation.
Hyperbole much? The problem with journalism is people want stuff for free and traditional outlets that have found themselves under a free market system (rather than being a loss-leader for entertainment segments). The joke of it all is the consumers still want their newspapers, they just want it from the internet.
And the problem with what people *think* is journalism is too many Limbaugh types have created their own agenda-promoting outlets. Drudge is one, the Huffington Post is another.
You've now created a new classification by omission. What about formerly binary star systems where one entity far more massive? I like your definition though.
Let us all pick the channels we want, or much finer-grained package choices. But, until the service providers bite the bullet, they'll continue to be extorted by the content providers.
More important, you go that fast below ground on an isolated track and you've probably beaten out air travel as a better infrastructure option considering logistics and payloads.
I started reading HP years ago when it was a strictly politics site. What I loved was the aggregation plus the functional organization of headlines. Now, what I HATE is what HP has become over the past 3-4 years. The stupid, misleading headlines or baiting ("You won't believe what Mitt said") crap. I can't stand it, yet at the same time I find the aggregation of the site to be much better that other news providers. Nevermind that HP turned into a cheerleader site. I've had so many posts scrubbed for not "adhering" to some San Fran network admin's idea of what's appropriate for a comment.
The only real comparison is the polar opposite approach by Drudge to just dump headlines on a single page without a lot of cluttered advertising. What I think editors of other sites are missing is the overall layout. Maybe it's just me, but I'm just trying to find quick news not get "lost" in it.
Kind of like the noble hooker of Hollywood lore, abandoning her nefarious deeds for the good of humanity. Thank you, mon frere! Of course, it would've worked out great had you not started the project in the first place.
I'll be so glad to see that one go away. Used to be you could get any old degree and go out and get a really good job. A friend of mine is a music major and got a job as a supermarket manager (they make relatively good money, too). That was 10 years ago. Now, you need a specific plan on how you're going to parlay a degree into a salary.
I wouldn't call C "simple," I'd call it "small." You can probably learn the entire syntax in a day, but it takes years to master such low-level memory management and pointers.
I've learned you can't blame the American people. We get absolute corporate-knob-slobbering propaganda for news. Ask anyone for details on any story besides the bumper sticker slogan and i guarantee you'll get the implied falsehoods we were supposed to absorb. Without getting partisan, there were two major stories that broke here in the States this week and the reality is so far from the reporting when you take the time to dig into the details.

That's not what your mama said. Burn!

Hmmm, I guess the guardians can't wait that long. Besides, what are they going to do if he doesn't cooperate, throw him in jail?
With all of these 21st century ultra-highspeed rail systems, would an approach like this with dedicated tracks or roads work better?
By that logic, I can write OO code in assembly. If the language doesn't support it out of the box, it's not considered OO.
OK, am I to understand you published actual passwords? That never works to motivate the technically challenged.
