  1. No it doesn't ! on Ask Slashdot: Does Being 'Loyal' Pay As a Developer? · · Score: 1

    First, tell them about the concurrency proposal and see what they say, they could adjust your salary to keep you inside the walls. If they don't, don't wait, they think you are not important in the company and your loyalty will never pay.

  2. Check you contract ... on What Do I Do About My Ex-Employer Stealing My Free Code? · · Score: 1

    Man ... I don't know where you worked (country) but in my French contract it is specified that everything I create in the company is owned by the company. Seem fair to me, they employ you. In fact I wonder if you are not the one who made a mistake by making the company stuff opensource without their consent ... But as I'm really not sure about this, I agree with previous comments, contact a lawyer ...

  3. Damn ... on Ask Slashdot: Becoming a Network Administrator? · · Score: 1

    How can I filter all useless comments and leave only the comments answering the damn question ...

  4. Re:So much for a fair trial. on Osama Bin Laden Reported Dead, Body In US Hands · · Score: 1

    You think that people who makes themselves human bombs talks during interrogation without doing things forbidden by Geneva convention ?

  5. XBMC ? on Ask Slashdot: Huge Digital Media Libraries · · Score: 2

    I never used it because I don't have TB of content but XBMC seems to be be something that could get your attention.

  6. I like it ! on Slashdot Launches Re-Design · · Score: 1

    I like it, it's clean and l like the logos going with the articles. Nice job

  7. Experience should prevail ! on Should Younger Developers Be Paid More? · · Score: 2

    A good developer is someone who produce good code not someone that knows the latest language.
    Experience is supposed to take you the upper skill level, making you more valuable than any guy out of school or a junior.

    Learning the basis of a language is fast, acquire experience is long. This new guy will make errors that the older guy would not do thanks to his experience... The time the junior fixes all the bugs your senior developer will be able to teach him tricks on this new tech.

    The technologies doesn't change a bad developer in good one. The real question to accept the salary raise should have been "Is the guy as competent as my senior".

    The guy should have been raised compared to another Junior hired, not 30% over a senior... You must be hell of hurry ...

  8. Re:No doubt the "black hats"... on Google Ready To Rule NFC-Based Mobile Payments? · · Score: 1

    You forgot that Japan is 5+ years in advance with the rest of the world in mobile technologies...

  9. Re:NFC on Google Ready To Rule NFC-Based Mobile Payments? · · Score: 1

    Google is not the first... They are just the first to communicate on it. Nokia and Samsung have their own devices ready for at least a year.

  10. something is missing on Android Phones Get Virtualization · · Score: 1

    "...The devices would also have two phone numbers." If we talk about GSM, devices have no phone number, SIM card is identified on netwok and associated with a phone number. Unless the SIM card is dual IMSI, there is only one phone number. As far as I know, a SIM is using only 1 IMSI at the time, something is missing or you'll still have to power off a VM and start the other one...

  11. Re:The bigger addition problem on Blizzard Launches Third WoW Expansion, Cataclysm · · Score: 1

    Damn I hope you're not serious !

  12. A book on Aging Reversed In Mice · · Score: 1

    Reminds me a book dealing with the subject of regeneration : "Rollback" Robert J. Sawyer

  13. Re:It already exists on Paying With the Wave of a Cellphone · · Score: 1

    I don't have much knowledge on antenna stuff .. but there is as well a notion of validation on handset side. And the black hat would have to hack the server side of the whole solution, there is a list of allowed resellers you are allowed to use the service with.

  14. Re:Old people already use that in Japan on Paying With the Wave of a Cellphone · · Score: 1

    A SIM card provider was working (last year, I quit since then) on an antenna you can plug to your SIM card to "upgrade" your phone. It would make any smart phone NFC compliant.

  15. It already exists on Paying With the Wave of a Cellphone · · Score: 1

    It already exists, in France in Nice. Project was launched last summer in production. It requires both SIM card and mobile compliant with NFC technology (Near Field Communication). But it's the very beginning, mobile constructors don't provide any list of devices compliant yet. You need to be very close to the terminal to have the transaction initiate, no way you can have it done from your pocket. And everything can be locked by your operator in no time OTA (over the air) if you loose your phone. For the moment, this service is provided by your bank, it's not available in the services of your mobile operator ... yet.

  16. Bad ass for sure, but not on the bad side on Study Finds Most Would Become Supervillians If Given Powers · · Score: 1

    I would not be the nice type super hero flying to rescue everybody, that's for sure ! Maybe under LSD ... I would certainly be a "I just came to kill you because you and/or your action makes me puke" type ...

  17. Thanks Free ! on French ISP Refuses To Send Out Infringement Notices · · Score: 1

    I'm happy to read this news, I liked Free before it, I like it even more now. Let's hope it will make the whole hadopi crap even more irrealistic ...

  18. Re:Oblig. on Today's Children Are Officially Potty Mouths · · Score: 1

    The answer, per usual, is the fault of the French. They were the ones who declared ~900 years ago that English words are vulgar and should be avoided, in favor of French substitutes.

    Well If that's true (I wouldn't be surprised), it can only be applied for french people, in France ... And "pig", "deer" and "cow" are not french words ... So my question is : WTF are the french are doing in this discussion ?? yes I'm French, and I'll go sex off, but for the rest I can't promise anything :)

  19. Who is the next goat ? on Look-Alike Tubes Lead To Hospital Deaths · · Score: 1

    "Nurses should not have to work in an environment where it is even possible to make that kind of mistake,' says Nancy Pratt"

    And once the nurse won't be able to do the mistake, who will be responsible of the accident ? The tube manufacturer ?
    If the process in place to avoid the "nurse error" fails, is he person who put the process in place is responsible ??

    Raise the nurse salary and make them work under 80 hours a week, maybe they'll be less accident like this.
