  1. Re:Wow on [H|Cr]acker Insurance · · Score: 1

    I'm not really sure that it's 100% recovery - since there will always be an adjuster that comes in to determine how much you should be compensated by the insurance company for the loss.

    I think a big question is how are "losses" tallied? How much is your web site/IT infrastructure really worth for a day? How much should your techs be paid to put the whole thing back together?

    Cheers,

    While I can't give you a good review of the plot (even though I have read it) you can check out the first part of the book (14 chapters or so) at Baen

  6. What? on Building the Ultimate Silent PC · · Score: 5, Funny

    I hate it when there's no noise. Without that, and my lights burnt out, I can never tell if the wonky parts are still going!

  7. Re:Legitimate reason for bailout? on Open Letter to FCC Chairman Powell · · Score: 1

    Right, but that's why there are anti-trust laws. The government will in no way, shape, or form ever give up their ability (monopoly) to tax people, nor will they allow anyone else to usurp that ability. If a corporation shows they have too much power, they get stomped like everyone else.

    Courtney Love's good discussion of how that financing works can be found all over, in places like this:

    It looks like even when you get a hit, you might not make money.
