Glad to hear. And for what it's worth, I think it's a shame some elements in the community behaved like they did. I chalk it off to them being immature twats, but mostly it's that people are people, and a good chunk of humanity are just idiots.
I suggest you contact the FBI and work with them. Why? Obviously the criminals are asking for banking information, and I can't imagine this being used for anything other than nefarious purposes. The FBI can sting them and locate the relevant bank accounts and freeze the money (in other words, give the scammers a kick in the balls). If you both get lucky, the FBI will actually catch the criminals and jail them.
In other words, assuming the data is being collected in order to improve the OS, will they actually be able to analyze this huge amount of data and come up with actual fixes?
I'm asking because my past experience as an OSX user is that there is a massive amount of garbage warnings and errors in the OS's system logs, which never seem to get fixed (and that's kinda annoying). You would think that they would analyze the data and fix those issues, being the "thorough" and "detail oriented" people they purport to be.
That's exactly what I was thinking when I saw this. They should count 10 seconds from the moment the person leaves the seat, and slowly break until the car stops safely. But is that the right thing to do? I'm not 100% sure.
The only way I would ever consider wearing something on my wrist:
1. Long battery life (Charging it once a month would be a reasonable compromise, but ideally once every 6 months or 12 months). 2. It tracked my health in a meaningful way, and produced helpful insights that actually help me keep healthy. 3. NO PHONE FEATURES and NO GPS! I prefer to leave that for my phone.
Things I want me watch to tell me:
- You are lacking fluids, drink water - You are too stressed, relax - You are hunched, stand straight - You have been sitting for too long, get up and walk for 5 minutes - Blood Oxygen levels too low, do some exercise - You are not sleeping well, consider changing your sleeping environment (or a number of recommendations about sleep)
Those are just a few, I'm sure I can think of a few more if I really put my mind to it.
I think the NADA is wasting their time, if they are indeed "scared" of Tesla, or even really actively fighting Tesla. The number of people currently buying a Tesla is so insignificant compared to regular car sales, that the NADA has nothing to worry about for at least another 5 years (which is when all-electric vehicles hopefully become cheap enough to actually compete, price wise, with gas fueled vehicles).
While your suggestions speak to my inner geek, I think if Amazon does add those features they will kill the kindle.
That product sold 40 million because it does NOT have those features. It is already far more convenient than using a paperback, looks bright enough to read even in low light conditions, and can hold tons of books. For those 40 million people who bought a Kindle, that's more than enough. Add more features and you'll make the product cumbersome, suddenly it needs more processing power, suddenly battery life sucks...
No, I say the Kindle should remain as it is, and this simplicity is its strength.
I believe we may have found a loophole where muslims are left behind on earth, and sane people can safely travel to another planet without fearing being followed by retarded religious zealots!
Actually this was purchased years ago and is the initials of 3 partners. The resemblance to the US NSA was purely coincidental. The names are Nadav, Shlomi and Aric. NSA.
You have clearly not been to Moscow... I live in New York. The clubs in Moscow put the New York clubbing scene to shame. And the Armitage museum in St. Petersburg rivals the Louvre in France. And the ratio of beautiful/ugly women in Moscow is incomparable to ANY other country.
You need to actually be there to witness it, or you will never believe it.
After having lived in Russia for some 6 month cumulatively, I have this to say: Edward Snowden is going to love it.
A few reasons:
- Incredibly beautiful women - Incredibly cool clubs and bars - Awesome Moscow Ballet / Classical Music / Cultural Events / Arts / Museums - McDonalds has a whole wheat bun, need I say more?
Only large corps really spend money on security... But let's face it, why would a young and promising guy with a bright future ahead of him, work for a disgusting corporation that's full of bureaucracy, politics, and incompetent managers? What's in it for him other than the money which he can probably get elsewhere?
Small companies are not just more fun; your opinions are heard, things move much faster, there's less bureaucracy, and there's usually minimal to no politics. I would gladly shave a chunk of my salary, and work for this type of company, than waste my life in a cubicle in some corporation where I am a very small and insignificant peon.
It's not just a matter of salaries. Israel is a difficult place. It's essentially a banana republic, with archaic government bodies that still behave as if the country is soviet russia. Natural resources are distributed to "oligarch" style tycoons who basically take the money and spend it abroad on real estate, yachts, and pay little to no taxes in Israel. There's a large number of people who are poor, all the while, the middle class is being milked dry by corporations who jack up prices. Food is cheaper in Manhattan than in Tel-Aviv, as ridiculous as it sounds. And it does not help that the country is surrounded by hostile countries seeking the destruction of Israel and the death of all Jews, despite what they had to endure in the holocaust. So yah, there is that. An Israeli leaving to the US suddenly realizes how relatively relaxed life is. For a typical Israeli, life in the US is like a constant holiday.
I am always confused about the OpenERP vs. OpenObjects naming. I once went to their channel on Freenode and was told from now on it's called OpenObjects. So I don't know what to make of it.
Too bad about the desktop client going away. It felt much more responsive to users, and they absolutely loved that last time I tried the app a few years ago. But a very well written web based system can feel very fast too.
My only concern with it is as someone in this thread noted, that once you go into the guts of it to make customizations, that it's a nightmare.
SugarCRM is very mature, and has a built-in "Developer Studio" where you can create new modules, add new fields, and so on. The only downside is when you need to do complicated stuff, then you need to hire a PHP developer to write custom actions for you. Another missing feature in the Community Edition is a proper Workflow Engine.
X2Engine comes with a workflow engine which is an awesome feature when you need status that function based on a certain logical business process.
And of course for me the ultimate system is OpenObjects (formerly known as OpenERP), it's a fantastic and quite complete system, but requires Python knowledge. But it has fantastic client software (desktop) for most popular operating systems, which makes some users feel more comfortable with it (it does also have a web interface, which is also very, very good, and all clients implement the same user experience pretty much so you feel at home with all of them).
Because at the end of the day, values and respect do not come from corporate entities. They come from people, they are between people. That's how it's always been, and that's how it always shall be.
In other words: If he hosted it with me, I would respect his wishes, because I'm a person, not a corporation. His web site would still be up, and his web site would not make Slashdot news.

Obviously English becomes the language of our planet before star date 2233.
No doubt it was a Windows machine, and the poor bastard who hooked it up to the internet probably used Internet Exploder 7.

Somewhere, in a galaxy far, far away, a death star was just blown up to smithereens by the rebel forces :-)

They would be very hard to spot, and only need to travel one way, recharge, then travel the other way again but this time with cash.
Isn't sharepoint a microsoft product? why touch that crap? he would have to install a *gulp* windows "server" for it.
I have not watched the games since I was ~15. That's 25 years of no-olympics for me. To me this means one thing: They are totally failing.
At this point I am so detached from the whole thing that I no longer care about it.

While that may be true, small companies and startups spend zero on security. How many startups have a CSO?
