Extrapolating from the apparently brief period of time that it was referred to as Sorbox, in a month or two, we will either be calling it the S era, or the X era.
The other way of looking at it is that at least two people get to judge the merits of a case before it gets to someone that is actually called a judge.
Recent research into behavioral economics would suggest that market participants are at least as interested in walking away with a fair deal as they are in buying cheap and selling dear (that is, screw someone over once and they aren't coming back). Wildly successful companies rarely act against customer interests, at least directly.
To my cynical ears, it sounds like a new way of packaging the issues surrounding the 'means of production'.
I wonder what the reason is, truck owners and operators in the US are as greedy as anyone else, I don't know why they would be using anything less than the best available trucks.
(Part of the reason could be road engineering, less roads with more traffic means better roads and higher weight limits. Around here, there are several months of the year with significant weight restrictions, especially on side roads, due to snow melt)
The counter argument is that 100 cases of autism are better than 100,000 cases of mumps or measles (those numbers are made up to make the point that vaccination is not done in a vacuum, not in an attempt to justify the current outcomes, which I don't know).
Increasingly, people aren't vaccinated against common deadly diseases (apparently, in some areas, vaccination rates are starting to slip below where you want them to prevent rapid spreading). It shouldn't be any surprise that such a lapse in reason is present elsewhere.
I guess it depends on what you call a data center and what you call a server room.
If a whole building is dedicated to a data center, there really isn't anything else to include (because the lights in the building and so forth are part of the data center).
My doors mostly keep the weather out. I have locks on them, but that only serves to keep out casual thieves, if someone wants in, they will break some glass or bring a sledgehammer.
You do realize that all the noise about UAC in Vista is because Microsoft fixed many of the security problems in Windows, right? That is, instead of maintaining the status quo where backwards compatibility meant that users had to run with high privileges all the time, they instituted a huge amount of user pain in an attempt to encourage developers to write software that worked with reduced privileges. It didn't work out very well, but it was a big step in the right direction.
I pretty much take any opportunity to advertise that site (I'm not associated with it or anything, just a happy user). Bookmarketlets have about 70% of the power of extensions, except they are easier to install (copy to bookmark toolbar, done) and only active when explicitly triggered.
Unless they install spyware on your work computer, in which case they can just look for encrypted traffic and just play back whatever you were doing before you sent the message. Stenography is neat, but it is hard to do well (simple methods make the image contain too much information, or are regular, etc).
If a corporation is monitoring their employees and not being open about it, they are essentially lying to them. You can think whatever you want about that, but it is shady as hell.
Which phonetics? I'm okay with "newscaster generic American" because that's the way I speak (with a bit of a Northern Midwest nose in it), but there are entire countries worth of people that may not want to go along with that.

Isn't the main outcome of a nasty letter usually just the wasting of the writers time?

What, do you get in and encourage the car to develop a personality?
That's pretty odd.
So parecon replaces central planning with central determination of relative effort? Sounds like a winner.
Wait, aren't the poor a business?
Verb "I".

Have you accounted for the difference between the US gallon and imperial gallon yet (this is your third post about fuel use...)?
Yes you did.
Ayn Rand hasn't been hoping for anything for quite a while.

Were other people turned off by the cloud of smug coming out of your book?
Are there any pickles?

You should have found the guy that the exterminator was buying the rats from and offered him money to stop selling rats to the exterminator.

They probably still have some power bills sitting around.

What if they have a secret decoder ring? There is decent one here:
