If you are young and you want to be in academia, you want a PhD. There are any number of research assistant roles with loser criteria but you will forever be near the bottom of the hierarchy. If you want to find something and you know people, sure they might bring you on but they will never be able to guarantee you anything steady. Do a big data geology thesis and the people who are interested in your research will become known to you. You will have an advisor who can help place you....
From context I think it was rather clear that "no escaping" meant Microsoft's future direction. Obviously switching to a different OS allows you to escape most issues.
Why? Obviously they have an obligation to make sure that HBO knows that, but being an expert in copyright law does not make you an expert in HBO's diverse holdings.
First off you should look at capabilities, it isn't just root for a userspace application. There was a virus in February that did something similar it pushed the DNS to a Russian server. But it couldn't get to the user access parts. The Apple community responded by putting the fix all over the internet. The people who had it got notified and got the fix. The Russian hackers couldn't stop thousands of sites.
Penny Arcade is funny but in some ways oversimplifies the issue. The 8.1 feature is to add dashboards to the desktop. The first of those is a start dashboard which launches the Metro application launcher. But the potential is there far more. Desktop is going to be further integrated into the new look and feel. There is no escaping the world of tiles.
On paper Windows has always been more secure than Mac OS. It isn't the OS
1) A user community that upgrades quickly 2) A willingness to break backwards compatibility 3) Apple's ability to get their community to fall in line if there is a crisis 4) A community with a heavy percentage of computer enthusiasts.
etc... means that Apple doesn't have the problems that Windows does.
You can't break the updating mechanism. That runs in a protected mode applications don't have access to it. That's one of the differences between capabilities and permissions, which NT supports too but Microsoft can't use as aggressively because of worries about backwards compatibility.
You think people were holding a grudge from the birth of SVR4 days? I'm not sure if I would even consider it a monopoly attempt that's sort of a least charitable view of the whole thing.
Yes. Yes you have to have good reason to believe you own property before claiming you own it. HBO didn't. They really didn't check the list point by point at all.
Agreed. Not enforced is a totally different problem. Just imagine treating this like they would a chop shop....

It shouldn't lead to the lawyer being disciplined. It should lead to the company being disciplined. HBO should be responsible for the content of the list.
Falsely claiming to have rights to something you don't, including copyright, is fraud. When HBO claimed to have rights to VLC they either were mistaken or fraudulent. If there is some other reason some DA were pissed at HBO this creates an opening.
Huh? "We put the dot in dot-com" for example was years after slashdot. Slashdot's owners, VA-Linux, was pitching using Linux to get something like a Sun workstation for $2k instead of the $7k to buy the real thing.
Workstations might have been in decline but the server market was exploding.
When did Sun attempt to monopolize Unix? During most of the Sun years: SGI, SCO, Dec, Compaq, AIX (IBM)... were all players. And then of course the Linux and the BSDs came along and were major players.

We put the dot in dot com = 2000 /. launched = 1997

XP is still on about 40% of Windows machines. The Windows user culture is a big part of why they have a much worse malware problem.

I've been running OSX since 10.1 no anti-virus no problems. And since then: wife, daughter, parents, inlaws, friends.
OSX people mostly don't get virus. They aren't immune but they are rare and Apple often handles them on their end.
Has it occurred to you that PC users get nailed all the time while Mac users mostly don't. They are pretentious because it is justified by experience.
And no a misbehaving website is not going to "pound sense into them" because they are being quite sensible.
Exactly my first thought. This isn't malware there is nothing particularly OS X about it.

You can outsource liability completely. HBO approved the list. Unless Dtecnet made very strong claims about the quality of the list...
Oh spelling error. Quite true. Thank you for explaining what he meant.
Yes. Yes you have to have good reason to believe you own property before claiming you own it. HBO didn't. They really didn't check the list point by point at all.
I don't think lawyers should be held responsible to know what property HBO owns.
Sorry. I think the lawyer is fine.

One can only dream.

There are and rather severe ones.

They are huge and they do a ton.
He's got a six digit number. I'm assuming he was around when Sun was one of the small boys making Unix workstations before any of them were big boys.
