You have a decent point, but a very important, unmoveable deadline also kept the engineers on track: the alignment of the outer planets imposed a certain launch window.
The usual majority laugh at privacy and point at illegal immigrants and drug traffickers
So true. It's crazy how "conservatives" eat these ideas up. When I think of "conserving" the best from the past, anonymous and free speech are right up there. Apparently not so with conservatives-in-name-only.
It's the 99% of lawyers that give the rest a bad name.
Naughton's trying to do a reverse SCO here... Oh noes, they copied the defines from errno.h! Completely dumb and a waste of time. There are lots of C libraries out there with Linux linkage. Saying A means 1, B means 2, and C means 3 is as copyrightable as Pi=3.1415. And nobody cares how you arrive at a preferred expression of that stuff, say by doing a dramatic reading of the POSIX standard into voice recognition software. Nobody cares except perhaps a FLOSS ambulance chaser.
Then strangely, it sorta came back again in the Newton, but Jobs killed that when he got the chance again while flirting with the PowerPC.
Then suddenly, Jobs embraced the ARM the next time around in the iPod and then later the iPhone (one-upping Sony in CE), and things have been going swimmingly for them.
You're right that end users don't care about the language used for apps, but Apple has demonstrated that in practice Java doesn't matter on smart phones.
WIth Oracle getting all pissy, and with alternate first-class platform-neutral languages like Python up-and-coming as first-class on Android, it may be attractive for Google to skip the Java language entirely.
Here is the most important thing to know: security is a process not a project. No systems ever "achieve" security. Rather, better-protected systems beat the attackers by having well-thought-out-and-executed security processes.

During the Apollo manned lunar exploration program, NASA astronauts trained in Sudbury ... visiting Sudbury because it purportedly resembled the lifeless surface of the moon...

Wow, they must really have their shit together.

If we can't see your scrotum, you'll be sacked.
I bet that Dmitri Skylarov has a different opinion.
We're gonna need a new term, especially if we start colonizing the moon and Mars. I propose GTP=Gross Terrestrial Product.
So much bullshit in just eight words.

That's quite a carnival mirror you're peering into. Apple was a founding partner in setting up ARM in 1990.
No kidding. My boss walked in right when the video shows this guy picking the user name "twatface".
Just like: "Sure Doc was a dwarf, but but at least he had a medical degree."

The obvious solution to losing all that oil would be plugging the leak.
Lemme guess, she was working on the script for "The Big Lebowski 2".
So.... hamsters?
Next thing MS will want the French version too: App Le Store.
Stephen Colbert, I've got a new word for you: selfless: it's a combination of selfish and shameless.
I don't agree.
int getRandom( void )
/* return a value from /dev/random */
{
}
What Sony did:
int getRandom( void ) // I rolled a die, it told me 4, so this is random
{
return 4;
}
The translation is:
Maybe a nice holiday in Beirut...

And the movie will be called Pirates Of The Kuiper Region.
