You've got that backwards. Exchange is the one that requires proprietary clients (it just happens that the major smartphone vendors include proprietary ActiveSync clients out of the box). The others listed use standard IMAP+LEMONADE extensions (which admittedly isn't widely supported by desktop clients, because they generally don't need it).
I spend far less time waiting for yasnippet to expand the appropriate boilerplate, semantic to complete variable and function names, and flycheck to highlight the bugs I just finished writing than my colleagues seem to with their IDEs. About the only feature missing from Emacs that is all the rage in IDEs these days is the ability to whimsically change your whole codebase archtecturally, causing guaranteed merge conflicts for all your co-workers with a single button press.
People who use Emacs for development understand that the GUI definition in Android is just XML, and the layout can be better controlled by editing it by hand rather than dragging things around with a mouse and trying to align them by sight.
Not really. Over at mbed.org, ARM has a rather nice C++ library for its Cortex M series, which are really too memory constrained to think about running any version of Linux on them.
As well as a wrapper around jdb, Emacs (with the JDEE package) also supports JDWP (which is what the IDEs really use), for remote debugging and debugging inside server containers.
Also, as of 24.4, Emacs supports adb as a backend for its remote editing and execution functionality (aka tramp), so you can edit files and run commands directly on Android devices from the comfort of your Emacs desktop.
...and if they're touting this for the "internet of things", I'm guessing they've added a Low Energy form of PAN (which was always transparent to IPv6 anyway, being a lower network layer).
Aristotle held that heavy objects fell faster than light ones.
Aristotle was of course right, its just that for most everyday objects, the effect of buoyancy in the Earth's atmosphere is negligible compared to the effect of gravity. What Galileo did was separate out the two forces acting on the objects.
The small space rocks that shower the Earth at regular intervals are small because a big rock once collided with the Earth, sending debris into an orbit around the Sun that regularly intersects with the Earth's. Those rocks pose no current threat to the Earth, their damage was done at the time of mass extinctions past, or when the oceans were carved out, or what ever other distant past event they caused. The ones to worry about are the large interstellar rocks that haven't hit yet. So no, this does not help narrow the search for objects that threaten the Earth at all.
It doesn't really matter. Gorilla glass 2 is tough enough already to resist scratching by pretty much anything I have in my pockets with it. The problem is not the toughness, it is the strength which results in cracked screens.
Not via OBD2, via the OBD2 connector. Most manufacturers will do that these days because CAN is now mandatory in the OBD2 port to get realtime emissions diagnostics. But for programming they use proprietary protocols that are additional to the standard OBD2 protocols.
Pffft. Amateur conformist. I get my slashdot by telnetting to port 80 and requesting it by hand!
Jokes aside, but I've been doing HTTP/web stuff since 1994 or so, I'm very familiar with telnet hostname 80:) I've even sent HTTP.9 requests for a production server.
Wannabes, the lot of you. I've been getting my internets by telnetting to port 70 since 1991.
It could also be completely closed source and proprietary. Because it's all Google's own code they can license it however they like (actually, I don't know if Google owns all the copyrights; I'm not sure how they handle contributions),
I thought the class libraries that are taken from standard Java are actually Apache Harmony. There may be modifications by Google, and there are plenty more libraries that are unique to Android, but they have not written everything from scratch.
You're confusing interfaces of physical devices that isn't copied by copyright (but perhaps patents) with an expressible form of information that is copyright protected. (like a written work, computer software, song, and others)
I don't see the distinction. The physical interface is defined by a drawing, and drawings are as much subject to copyright as the file of structured text that defines an API.
The idea was to open up access to other card providers. With the secure element being in hardware, operators were controlling the provisioning, so only very few phones came provisioned for Google Wallet, and none with major credit card companies, because those companies won't bend over and accept the operators' demands for a cut.
Radio receivers also oscillate at frequencies that might interfere with aircraft electronics. So no, it is not "stupid", just an unnecessary precaution. (Unnecessary based on the fact that some ailines/countries are now allowing cellphones to be switched on during flight).
Sure, this is why the sale of old fashioned alarm clocks should be banned too. [For those who can't be bothered following the link: short version is OMG, terrists!, longer version is that someone thinks that RFID passports could be used to trigger a bomb.
All he does is pushing corporate interests with the money he "earned" exploiting a monopoly.
Before he got into health issues, I'd agree - mostly he invested in pushing developing countries towards using Windows PCs for education. But more recently he's investing a lot into healthcare issues that are important to the developing world, and without his money, unprofitable for the drug cartels to research.

And Maggie should be postgraduate age by now, so why wouldn't she be publishing papers?

So the Libertarian version of liberal then.

This only really works if you have a VPN with an exit point in Luxembourg or the Netherlands, and use tor over that to an exit point in Bermuda.

I'm not sure if you're trying to be funny here, or just lacking in knowledge about the history of Sybase.

So do USB Mass Storage, and FAT32, or if you want more than 64GB to work with Windows 7 and later, ExtFS.
And unlike ExtFS, MTP support is standard on any modern platform in common use.
Think for a moment what his link was given in response to.

As a bonus, the app that the hotel has forced you to install to get access to your room can also be used to advertise the chain's other properties.
