The rest of the world will continue its course while lawyers battle against each other in US.
US is giving a nice warning for those who want to invest in their country: "What a nice product you have, it will be a shame if someone sue you for *insert patent/copyright* infringement".
As a brazilian myself, I saw the news about it in the last few days in our local media.
Foxconn is in Brazil for serveral years. The main problem of water was reported as a temporary supply problem from the public water system, not Foxconn fault.
The second biggest problem was reported about the buses being overcrowded. This is most probably because Foxconn hired a lot of workes recently to increase its production and the guy responsible for transportation made a lousy job to handle the extra workers.
Also, the union president said the strike is very unlikely because Foxconn said it was already taking care of the situation. They aren't striking for salaries, bonus, or anything else related. The union just made a warning for Foxconn to act quickly.
Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 2 had the same problem.
Unfortunately, EA will get away from this since they were not expecting to have a Mass Effect 4. The Mass Effect brand is damaged, so what? They made a quick buck and that's how it works there.
I saw studio after studio being sucked dry by EA and Bioware is no different. I suggest you all never pre-order something EA branded until you get player comments about it.
You can't even trust "professional" game reviews of the game (like it happened with ME3).
"... and for not spreading information with the same 'clarity and integrity' of broadcast journalists."
I'm with him!
I don't use the internet to get reliable information. Why waste time checking the source integrity if you can get all the information you need from Fox News? They even do the job to filter 'bogus' information for me!
Right? RIGHT?!??
What? Fox News isn't reliable? I don't trust you! You are probably a terrorist from the internet!
And not so far from Sweden, baltic states (Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania) have unilimited 50,100 and even 200Mbps for a cool $40. These countries are not even the richest but somewhat think that this is an investment for their future as they can create a new type of industry with all that bandwith avaliable, helping their economies.
Not really, PhD is like a valid visa to work anywhere in the world. You can do a crappy PhD and still be granted for something like the USA EB-1. There is a whole PhD degree business going on and little practical research being done.
PokerStars is in Isle of Man. They have strictly rules regarding online gambling including coding audit, datacenter servers locked and monitored (can't get in without warning) and the need to have legal reps in the Island for avalible all time.
Of course, they also set a number of rules about how the code behind should work. They also heavly tax them.
The real problem here is that Las Vegas is upset with online gambling and they are trying to find an excuse.

AMD doesn't have it's own fabs anymore. The profit they would get doesn't seem so high and they have all kind of headaches for free like keep an expensive R&D center to keep competitive with other competitors using Intel.
We are having a huge problem of lack of engineers here in Brazil. People are leaving universities already hired even if you have zero experience. If you want a good life outside the financial market you should consider move to another country.
Brazil has some bureaucracy to get residence permission to work here but I am sure you will get a good salary and a nice quality of life. And yes, people here care more about engineers, medical doctors (one exception would be famous soccer players). This is just an expample. I don't know the situation of India, China and others. But an experienced engineer here can get about US120k a year but you are going to pay half of the price for food and house and other things. Cars is an exception, it is more expensive than america and internet connection i pay about US$50 for 30Mbps FTTH connection.
This is just an example, there are more need for example in Africa. One of my friends a few years ago saved some money and decided to try bulding some houses in Angola. He opened a company with only him as an engineer and hired local people to build. He's fucking rich now and offered me to work there for US250k a year. If I wasn't coward because Angola had a civil war 10 years ago I would probably go. You can make huge savings for your retirement in places you probably never considered going. Take a time and look for the oportunities.
"Dear ICANN.
We think we should control the.music TLD and get all the money we can from it. Our lawyers think we can make a quick buck renting domains at this TLD at 80 cents an hour to anyone wishing to have a website to share some music that we might think we own. If we don't.... well, who cares. This will surely help our fight against piracy.
If they drop US investors, some bells did ring at GS lawyers. Trust me on this one, this isn't a good sign. There is a lot of money avaliable on the market now, even in the US.
This move probably will give top investors more doubts about the real financial status of Facebook. I think myself the actual valuation is high and if someone is trying to invest in a.com thinking that this valuation will make sense some years ahead I would probably laugh. No.com stays too much time on top. Yahoo had it's time, as AOL, ICQ, and others. I just see only one trend in a near future, devaluation of the stock prices to a reasonable level.
But wasn't the reason of AOL merger with Time Warner to get a broadband infrastructure? AOL even with broadband avaliable failed to get advantage of it.

Because their high-speed trains had an accident not so long ago and the goverment tried to cover up.

Is it possible to make something like or we will be doomed to slow interpreted code?

Expect pay a 100% premium of the price in America. Used imported cars just above 50 years for collection.

It is expected low temperature records this May. Satan blames global warming while others think it is an excuse to cover something else.

I think the main point is: Linkedin IPO is coming and probably soon Twitter and Facebook.
The question we should all be making: Do you really think the shares prices will go up? Would you advise your friends to buy their shares?
Myspace is still there. Even AOL is still there. But would you pay the price they were valued in the past?
This train already left the station. Don't try catch it.

Give them credit too for their own failure.
