Between Google cancelling both Project Ara and the Nexus brand, and Samsung targeting their marketing for their latest phones at ISIS, we may be witnessing the end of the mobile bubble here.
It's called corruption. Doesn't matter if its your local auditor you convinced to give you a special deal, or negotiated with a Government, corruption is wrong and distorts the market, and it is right to punish it (though in this case, it is hardly punishment, they are just undoing the result of the corruption and letting Apple continue on as if it never happened).
And that right there is why space wins. A space isn't usually 1 space, it is always 1 space. And my experience editing other peoples' code is that modern tabs are usually 4 spaces, sometimes 2 or 3, almost never 8.
Actually the credit goes to Rep. Vern Buchanan, R-Fla. for introducing this bill - not every proposed unconstitutional rights violation is the fault of the president, even in election season.
I thought the whole point of asymmetric keys is that you can send the "encode" key in band and keep the secret "decode" key yourself.
Yes, but assymetric encryption is slow, because you need about 5 - 10 times the key size to get the same level of security, and the algorithms are more complex. So in practice you only use it to encrypt a symmetric key, which you will use for the rest of the session.
No need to just suspect. There must be a very good reason why licensed taxi drivers can not just lower their prices to compete (and not just in places like NY where they pay ridiculous amounts for their medallion). Most budding Uber drivers will only consider immediate costs when calculating whether they can make a profit from the job. The cost of wear and tear and rapid depreciation of their vehicle is not factoring into their calculations.
There is something ironic about getting upset about being forced to open your JavaScript source code for anyone who has access to your website to download and copy.
If they can get away with paying 75%, why wouldn't they? My wife negotiated reduced hours after our first child was born, and found that she was doing about the same amount of work, as she had more energy for work overall and felt social pressure to demonstrate that she wasn't a slacker for working part time. The company got a good deal out of, as no doubt will Amazon with this experiment. Probably they'll see the good results and roll this out to everybody, at which point the social pressure aspect will go away and their results will become less dramatic (though probably still overall positive). One concern I have is on the 75% benefits. Does this mean fewer holidays, partial healthcare coverage, a pension plan that won't quite cut it?
Spotify has already gone well down the path of making themselves irrelevant. They used to offer an ad-supported free service, which for my occasional usage was OK (no worse than local radio at least), but last time I opened their app, I couldn't find anything at all that was accessible without a premium subscription, including the very same BBC podcasts that are available for free through plenty of other apps.
Sort of. That's only half of the problem. The other half is:
* Bad data
* Incomplete or missing data
And one you missed, correct data for an inappropriate purpose. For example, data that has the location corrected to take you around the back of a building to the carpark entrance isn't very appropriate for an Uber driver/self-driving-car that needs to pick you up from the front door.
My phone has a large enough screen and a high enough resolution that I just prefer to browse the full site. Can we stop the "mobile web" shit?
Mostly this is because sites (m.slashdot.org, and groups.google.com are the two that immediately spring to mind) cripple their mobile sites to the point where they are unusable (no "mark all as read" in groups.google.com, difficult to quote parent, javascript which actively works against editing your reply, and a login that only logs you in to half the site among other problems on m.slashdot.org)
Only because they are on the market a long time. I don't know if Apple has any official statement anywhere about their policy, but from observation, the last major update that an Apple phone will receive is the one that is released the day it is withdrawn from the market (the way Apple manages its OS and new iPhone launches, these events generally coincide).
Up until recently, Apple released one phone at a time, and moved its older models down the product range, so a phone was actively being sold in Western markets for at least 2 years, and recently they extended the life of the iPhone 4/4S in developing markets for a further year. Recently though, they seem to be moving more in alignment with what Google has been doing, which is replacing the entire lineup every year with newer models.

I thought it wasn't so much the pH as the fact that soaps and detergents reduce the surface tension of water to the point where bacteria are affected.
Sure they do something. They help the common harmless bacteria that is all around us evolve into MRSA.
According to the latest research on the subject, the Islamic State seems to favor Android over iPhone
Specifically, Samsung Galaxy Note 7's.

I can't tell if your argument was supposed to be sarcastic, or just flawed.
The answer to your dilemma is to stop using Python, and use a language with proper block delimiters instead.

LGPL would seem to be made for what you are looking for.

How would that be worse?

How do you propose the key be sent out-of-band for web browsers?
The same way that 3DES and Blowfish keys are sent currrently.

If they are that dumb, the current immigration forms already have a tick box that will identify them.

You're not going to be making many significant observations as you zip past at 0.2c.
Calm down, I remember reading about this story 2 weeks ago in MSM, so while it is early for Slashdot, it is not so early as to cause panic.

CSS tables? I'm guessing you mean inline-block elements, which are great for layout, but they aren't tables.
