If even machines come up with measurable differences between work performance of males and females, then I think giving them in average the same amount of money or the same promotions is discrimination.
Not if the differences cancel out (women perform less well in some areas and better in others), or pale in significance compared to the variation between individuals of both sexes (eg men score a 5.3 on my made up performance scale, women score 5.1, and the standard deviation for both groups is around 1.8).
When I got 5 hours battery life after updating to 7.0, Google Services was in 3rd spot at 4%, behind Android OS at 10% and Android System at 55%. So yeah, Google themselves are very much at fault for the Android 7 battery drain issues.
This happened to me the first day after updating my 6P. Then I booted into recovery and cleared the cache (after some research into possible solutions). Since then the battery has lasted all day. Still worse compared with 6.0.1, which would have lasted until about noon the next day if I'd gone without charging (7.0 is giving me battery warnings around midnight now), but acceptable for someone who basically just charges their phone overnight.
Most ISPs I've encountered block outgoing port 25, not incoming. So you need to use a smarthost for your outgoing mail, either your ISP on port 25, or any number of authenticated public servers on port 465 or 587.
I'd hazard a guess that the color emoji are taking up considerably more room than the fairly standard CJK glyphs that have been shipping in fonts around 3-4MB in size for the last 20 years..
I got my first ATM card when I was 12. Before that, I had a savings account but had to withdraw over the counter (presumably with a parent present - but I never tested whether they would give me my money if I was alone).
Right. And I'll just go get a different size wallet for each denomination.
Seriously, that is your concern? Does your OCD trigger a meltdown down in the middle of the store when someone tries to give you two dimes and a nickel in change and you only brought your quarter purse?
I mean it looks like a slip of the mouse will maximise the window.
Isn't that already the case with Unity 7 (and Windows 7, and probably MacOS from some similar or probably older timeframe, since this seems like just the sort of UI stupidity that would have come from Apple originally).
It seems when he wrote the simulation, he reserved 1 bit for the male/female flag and a few magic numbers for immortal Buddhist monks, Jesus and the like.
Little-endian has some issues for naive sort algorithms, but now that we're past the mid 80's in terms of computing power, it isn't really a major issue compared with dealing with middle-endianness.
If it doesn't make business sense, don't take credit cards. If you decide it is worthwhile for your business to take credit cards, then shell out for the equipment, and be prepared to update it every 10-20 years. Do you ask the central bank to supply you a cash register free of charge?
This is one instance when conspiring is good for the market. If they didn't conspire, small retailers would be buying four different card readers instead of one, and they'd have four different deadlines to remember instead of one. A market getting together and deciding on standards are not really in the same league as price-fixing and other types of conspiracy that adversely affect consumers.
The summary is not even an accurate depiction of the video's conclusion. I watched it about a week ago, so I got through to the end without the urge to jump back to slashdot and comment half way through. He concludes that it is real sapphire, but a much lower grade than used in the Tissot watch (which figures given the price difference), and with a coating on the inside surface to improve the optical qualities. Due to the low quality of the sapphire, it isn't really any more scratch resistant than gorilla glass, but hey, marketing.
It's a feature where your PC unlocks when you look at it. But apparently the facial recognition was too good, so now Microsoft want to open a vulnerability where you can unlock a stolen PC by phoning the owner and thus tricking them into looking at their phone. This will bring the feature down to Microsoft's usual level of security.
Any OS patch made since the candidates were announced should be considered suspect. Voting machines should be offline an not allowed to be patched during the election cycle.
Noone is going to use anything other than PCM for stereo anyway, and if it's multichannel, they will jump straight to DTS, maybe some of the new MPEG4 standards if they take off. Why they have other lossy codecs on there, especially MPEG1 layer 1, is anyone's guess. Probably they took a list from the Blu-ray standard or somewhere, which included backwards compatibility with DVDs, CDs, and because Sony was involved, Minidiscs as well, and said "we have to have these".
And fewer music tracks ripped from YouTube, which should help the music industry...wait a minute, why are our profits going down when we cut piracy by making it more difficult to listen to music on mobile devices?!
You only need the licence to use the USB logo and trademarks. The actual standard is open for anyone to implement, which is the problem with non-compliant USB-A to USB-C cables (the root cause being a stupid decision to make 3A charging the default for USB-C, instead of maintaining backwards compatibility with USB-A, so adapter cables need more than just wires connecting to pins on connectors at each end to be compliant)
Docks and car kits can already play audio over USB if they want to using existing standards. It doesn't even need to be USB-C. Only analog audio for dumb, unpowered headphones needs a new standard if it is going to go through the extra pins on a USB-C connector.
I think the real motivation is not to make it thinner, but to get an extra 5 minutes of battery life by using the extra 1/32 in saved for a marginally bigger battery.
For electronics, I'd hit aliexpress, ebay, digikey and google before I went to Amazon. I know they sell other stuff now, but to me Amazon is still a bookstore.

You might like to update your knowledge of the topic.

The special thing is discovery, and the ability to send you to your TV's app store to download any app that is required.

That should be cu. in. Why do I see trolls posting Unicode spam, while serious commented have it filtered out?
