Yes, but it means that our exports are more attractive.
Britain has a large imbalance of imports over exports. London's finance industry will be relocating en masse to Frankfurt. There is nothing pretty about this at all.
Sony uses FreeBSD now. And after stuff like this, it probably makes them glad they have nothing more to do with Linux or allowing anybody to do stuff with their own hardware.
Sony uses Linux (Android) on their handsets, so there goes your troll.
Having to put up with lawyers waltzing in and out, hoovering up fees and distracting execs for years. See, lawyers do have some beneficial purpose, I am sure that there is some beneficial reason for roaches to exist too.
- The terms required to collect the $55 recompense are more or less unachievable except for that one guy who got the PS3 for Christmas and his mom actually saved the receipt for her accounting.
This isn't a surprise. The next Intel chip won't be much different than the last one either.
Right, it's not a surprise that Apple ran out of ideas, but it's still just an excuse to say "intel did too". The real issue is, the Tim Cook culture does not value ideas, it values milking the cow.
No doubt Linux runs on a conventional processor that manages the embedded processors. Probably just running on the metal on the embedded processors, like a GPU.
Power isn't the only problem with the concept. The wing loading is too high - that plane will glide like a rock if the motors quit. I also wonder about the turbulent flow over the wing from the prop wash, it seems far from the ideal lift/drag solution.
But this is _not_ before tools like Apt and RPM, so what point are you making? As others have pointed out, static builds come with their own issues, among them requiring separate updates for security issues. Also additional disk, memory and download bandwidth bloat. I can see how someone from the Windows world might not view those as important issues...
Empty rhetoric from you? Please cite your example of "reality" that you believe justifies abandoning the well known and ubiquitous Unix symbol versioning scheme.
Let's say you have a critical program you need for your work. And let's also say that it needs specific versions of software installed - you can't upgrade those dependencies or your risk breaking the program....
It seems that you have not heard of library symbol versioning.
"they predicted the post-war outcome would be what it is, which is ISIS taking over the country."
Maybe I'm wrong, but as far as I know, ISIS didn't really exist before 2003 - so how would the Pentagon have been worried about them pre-2011?
Not only that, but ISIS is not taking over Libya. It currently only holds a small and shrinking portion of Sirte. Incidentally, the same place that Ghadaffi built his power base and made his last stand.
The essential ingredient that makes it possible for the population to resist ISIS in Libya but not in Syria is the absence of a strongman willing to employ ISIS to save his own skin.

Work with me here. The project name says "for Android" right?
Much more likely to involve Qt for Android.
You forgot memory sticks.

Where the FUCK do you see any kind of punishment?

"Or serial number", seems doable to me.
Never interrupt Apple when it is busy making a mistake.
It isn't physics that makes Tim Cook undriven and uncreative.
I was at a gaming convention this past weekend, and a number of vendors were using card reader dongles that attach via the headphone jack
I guess Square will refocus on Android.

Most programmers seem to be coding Javascript these days.

They feel differently when it's a Western company "violating" a Chinese company's patent.
Apple feels differently when it is on the receiving end of a design patent suit?
Text ads are all but worthless at this point...
You're kidding right? Do you have any idea how much Google makes from that text flagged with little yellow "Ad" on your search results?

I still prefer the idea of static build executable. Shared libries while a good idea doesn't work well for lesser known libraries.

Why do I get the impression that 99% of the commenters to this article have never heard of symbol versioning?
What do you think a GPU is? Right, basically the same as a CPU, except SIMD. Pushing pixels costs energy even when pushed in parallel.
