How is the wrong implementation of a protocol in a framework library a fault of the protocol?
Either devs need to be aware that there's extra steps in validating using an SSL library in their framework of choice, or the framework needs to be patched appropriately, but based on the concepts the article's provided, sounds like bad implementation aka crap code, and not enough QC. Some OOP would help make the implementation easier though...
Interesting, I didn't know about the whole UIDs thing, but taking a shot at it in the dark, it would probably have to have the user portion built up from scratch and in terms of individualizing the apps, it would probably look like the Windows appdata folder for saving app settings per user. As it stands now the apps aren't configured for multi-user environments is the biggest hurdle. That can be handled either by some really clever directory manipulation re-pointing application settings repositories to the user's folder, or developers changing their apps to work with a users folder where applicable. Not a small undertaking, it's possible, but there's a pink elephant in the room... Windows AND Linux can both do everything android can do and tons of things it can't, so why bother? It's kind of like WINE: it would be cool to run windows apps on linux... OR I can just run windows ($ philosophy out of scope).
I'd have to agree, somebody else will step in to fill the void, but as somebody else in this discussion mentioned, that's not going to happen overnight, but rather over a period of years. The problem... the runner up is Russia and they don't have much love for the states either: http://www.mining.com/russian-getting-back-into-rare-earth-game/
There's no trap here, but rather a balancing of traits, everybody has all traits in some form, people differ on one level by their dominant traits, a lot of people who aren't good at math & science may be good at art, or working with their hands. As a "nerd" in the real world you're just another skilled worker, it may seem like all the same, but something like project management takes a different type of skilled worker than a network engineer (typically). The key is to learn to respect others even if their strong points aren't as obvious / with the computer.
And the sad truth is as a result we no longer trust our neighbor, much less a complete stranger. Everybody thinks the worst of everybody (mostly) and then goes home to drugs, alcohol, porn, and/or failing marriages. Those 115 would probably be cut in half if those offenders had someone to talk to.. facebook just doesn't cut it, wrong chemicals in the brain type stuff.
You know you always have the choice of living away from the rest of us right? Like somewhere remote... but then who'd hold your hand when a bear came by?
Also at what point does it cross your mind to go talk to the kids parents BEFORE calling the cops?
Some people have the resources to hire a private detective and rip you apart for messing with them, think of that next time you want to call the cops on somebody's kids.
Lastly, the requirements are dictated by the cc of the engine, so that's quite an assumption.
Interesting read, I think ultimately this patent war will hurt Apple a lot more through PR than anything. Probably won't matter in a few years, their PR is going to shit now anyways (a smartphone w/o working maps anyone?), so... when Apple goes out of business, are those patents then invalidated?
I was just thinking the same thing... the only people we'd be able to use this tech against is ourselves... shooting it at a taliban cave may produce hilarious results though:)
That's probably your gpu not being challenged, gpu's have exceeded game requirements in recent years by quite a wide margin (also you failed to mention your cpu load)... there does seem to be a bunch of confusion on the issue, so here's a great link on the subject: http://www.thinkdigit.com/forum/hardware-q/154674-what-role-cpu-gpu-relation-gaming.html
Now, going back to my previous statement: unless you run a p4, you're probably fine on the cpu and the gpu is what does the heavy lifting.
Something like Physx rendering gets kicked over to your cpu if your gpu can't do it... which at this point in time puts it in the bottom bracket of gpus, but besides the point even w crappy coding cpus are leagues and leagues ahead of any bad practices programmers may deploy. Read below for why mutli core.
Most AI / Game processing can be handed on a single core 2 ghz processor, why do we need multi-core for gaming?......... Windows background processes, yep it's as lame as that.

Motorola tried, phone specs aren't high enough yet.
*facepalm* It's called linux, Android is based off it. Also you can run Android OS via an emulator just about anywhere.

Now if they cross-referenced your taxes with your social networking info... :)
Pokes are a stupid concept to begin with. Does anybody use a phone to make calls anymore?

Wasn't there some guy who got arrested for exposing a companies security hole who was fighting extradition or something?

Yep, sure enough: http://science.howstuffworks.com/x-ray2.htm

GPU's benchmark game performance...
I miss the FX series... we may never have gotten the i7 if not for that war between intel and amd, but AMD never answered...
You do realize that most of your processing occurs via your gpu in a game right...?
Nokia maps anyone?
how is knowing how to code beneficial to administrating an exchange server???
Knowing how to script on the other hand... that would make a lot more sense.
