This is why rich people almost always get off the hook in the legal system, it only applies to the 99%. What's important to understand is that laws from a basic / human rights perspective rarely make sense and are meant as more of a situational band aid... take something common like a DUI for example, it punishes drunk driving (quite severely in some cases), but it doesn't take into account the difference in how much the person has drank, or if when they were pulled over they were actually being a danger or not, much less why that person felt the need to drink and drive in the first place. Make sense? It's kind of difficult to visualize, but eureka and complete understanding of the folly of laws if you do.
so why do these people your referring to respond so easily to intimidation and control, could it be that they support militant islam if only because they are of the same religion? These beliefs sound great on paper, but the muslim world has shown time and time again that they're exactly that: paper.
Most programming jobs are in.NET , if you want options & pay (some.NET shops don't differentiate VB from VB.NET or even Python sometimes due to intelligence / poor management). You may not land the most glorious of jobs to begin with, but there's so many, it never hurts to keep looking till you find something / somewhere you enjoy. It's also super easy, & visual studio beats most development tools by miles and miles.
Ehh... not to back apple or anything, but I thought they always prided themselves on usability, you can't break it no matter how much you click around, and you can intuitively find most things. Having said that, we can use the word "idiots" in a whole different light: those who can't use a PC w/o breaking it.
Apple, Microsoft, Cisco, HP, if you look at it from a business point of view. Apple is a bit cornered here with only the iphone / ipad products, but people seem to like them. MS is obvious: software, Cisco runs most of the networks, and HP is popular w desktops & printers. On second thought, maybe we should swap out apple for IBM here too. Business sales are far more established, less trendy, and without looking up statistics on it, are a lot more $ than consumer sales.
You can always do stuff to steady your hand temporarily, but I'm not sure where the discussion is: who would want to? Even if you can, the price point might be lower than your hourly wage so why bother. There's plenty of other stuff to solder, like your friend's gaming console:)
Hmm, bad analogy, both Apple & Samsung are geeks and the popular kid here:)
Two geeks offer services... one geek is ousted and leaves: the other geek abuses power and controls pricing, the ousted geek refuses to come back and a new geek sees opportunity and steps up.
I doubt the US govt. could swallow the PR of blowing sea-land up. I hate to say it, but public empathy towards white European extreme liberals is much greater than Muslim empathy.
Agile's been around since the early 2000's, it also coincides with the cutting out of middle management in IT (no more Phil Lumbergh). If anything software development has picked up since, no more bloat in the process, so if anything adding layers of management to "polish" projects killed projects rather than helped them in the 90s. Not sure what OP's OP is talking about, but cutting the bloat has more to do with axing products (that were once 20% time probably) with no future than stopping innovation at google as far as I can tell.
I'm talking about stuff like man in the middle + spyware / malware / virus type stuff. In regards to phishing scams, there's already a decent set of preventive measures like mxlogic and spam black lists. Don't always work, but we don't live in a perfect world, IT even less so. User training is ok at best, we've tried it, a year later we had enough new people where we had to do it again after a couple of incidents. You can't 100% stop it, but if you get 99% your above the curve.
If it's shown that the FBI lead to an innocent megaupload being deleted by their host due to legal restraint of not being able to pay their hosting bills, MU might have a case, but 1st they have to focus on the issue at hand, and that's that they're on trial.
I think OP would have been wiser to say potential, as eventually we will cap ours in the current surroundings, might not be for a while though. $ fuels the space endeavour and there needs to be a reason behind the $ channel, the Russians were such a reason, but what is it now? China maybe? But what are we proving to them?
Well for one most people (users) don't care and can't be made to???
This is one of those cases where technology is the superior alternative, everybody uses email, and it's :
1. fix the problem 2. train everybody to work around the problem
seems like a fairly simple choice to me.
On that note, this is a lame solution. Imho we need to implement pgp properly on a large scale basis or something like it. DNS has proven unreliable in authentication over the past few decades.
It also effectively breaks email if the other side doesn't have it installed, while great for internal communications, creates an administrative nightmare quickly and without fail. You need a real damn good reason to invest the IT cost in PGP, and some have it that use it. This one's not simple to force on the user, you have to understand domains, internet vs intranet, as well as the additional UI steps to begin. PGP is a poor implementation of something that should parallel ssl in it's usage, maybe the US government had something to do with that;)
That's because their culture is different, they still have a king. Still, it's almost human nature of the king to do so, it's the society beneath him that's allowing him the power. If somebody walked into your home, a stranger, but a kinsman, and started talking shit about you, your family, and your home, how would you react?
As for me, I'd give you an extended tour of my ceiling. The trick of course is, don't walk in the front door and the situation will never happen. So, either the people living there (not foreigners with opinions) need to change their society if they don't like it, or they need to accept what they've built and more importantly so does the rest of the world.
If you do not think you will use Facebook again and would like your account deleted, keep in mind that you will not be able to reactivate your account or retrieve any of the content or information you have added. If you would like your account permanently deleted with no option for recovery, log in to your account and then submit your request here.
Whether they truly delete it or not is beyond me, but it's not the same as deactivation.
Nobody needs "any" software, people need "good" software. There is no expectation that just because you learn.NET and code and app that everybody will love it and you'll make 7 figures.

what if the email host provider is THE ONLY place you access your mail from?

It's not the market that's broken, but the patent system... it clearly wasn't designed for computers & technology.

can you really blame them for wanting to try?

That's not the point, it's not accessible to those who need it so it might as well be considered deleted.

Epic counter-lawsuit though if that happens.
It's one of those cases where they "could" give the data back but won't.

Pretty much...
Nike's profit margins actually rose with mass expansion. Perhaps people thought they were getting a better value? :)
