If you pay for Pandora instead of using the free service, Pandora does exactly what you claim it doesn't. You choose any song you want. If you didn't know that that spotify and pandora were the same... well now you do.
What? If you pay for their service, same price as spotify, it acts exactly like spotify. You choose any song you want. If you didn't know that that spotify and pandora were the same... well now you do.
Did you see the AP Computer Science Principles curriculum? It has topics like "Copyright and the law", "Impact of your life", "web crawlers", "indexing pages", "ranking pages", "Privacy in the age of big data". etc. Is this a joke?
It's a great start... but why so many ads? Take a look at any project page, for example:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/squirrel-sql/. come on, does it really need ads on the top, side, middle, AND bottom? That just makes the site look spammy.
Why not just delete the delete button from the keyboard? Many other 'meta-keys' have disappeared in order to dumb-down the keyboard. Keyboards used to have both backspace and delete, which did two slightly different things. Now my Macbook pro only has a delete button that acts like backspace (not delete), no home/end keys, and all sorts of other missing keys. So, just fucking delete the delete button too. Just like the 'Forward' and 'Refresh' buttons in Firefox. Dumb everything down for the people who do nothing but watch videos on their computers.
And before you say, 'Those keys were removed to keep the keyboards small for smaller laptops'... ever hear of modifier keys like fcn, control, alt?
Customers using an outdated software version on Kindle e-readers require an important software update by March 22, 2016 in order to continue to download Kindle books from the Cloud, access the Kindle Store, and use other Kindle services on their device.
I went through the hassle of logging into slashdot (finding my password), just to tell you that while reading your comment, I was brushing my teeth and spit out a large mouthful of water and toothpaste all over the bathroom mirror. Thanks for the laugh.
Contrast that to "pre-agile" style where managers would just poke in and out and ask about whatever random bit of functionality they happened to care about at the moment or re-prioritize stuff because someone send them an email
Um, no. pre-agile we had the Capability Maturity Model, Rational Unified Process (RUP), Adaptive Software Development (ASD), Extreme Programming (XP), and many others. And to do any of these "properly" required spending serious amounts of money on training, consulting, auditing, and oooo... don't forget "certification". Entire mini-industries are spawned to handle each of these, for each new "process". Each of them spawn "experts" or "gurus". Some are even able to make doctoral theses out of it.
Sound familiar? Agile is just another one of them. It is not a paradigm shift.
Whoever said in an earlier comment that this is about money is right: all of these software engineering paradigms are money grabs. Doesn't mean they don't work for very specific projects in specific circumstances, but the primary goal is for the Tailors to sell the Emperor some New Clothes.
The bottom line is that there isn't any single software engineering/development process that works well for all organizations, for all projects, just like isn't a Unified Field Theory.
The current round of internships is open internationally to women (cis and trans), trans men, and genderqueer people. Additionally, it's open to residents and nationals of the United States of any gender who are Black/African American, Hispanic/Latin@, American Indian, Alaska Native, Native Hawaiian, or Pacific Islander.
Isn't that discrimination? Why must I be of a certain race or sexuality to be considered for a job? Aren't there laws against this in the US?

The aim is for this to happen in the next half decade, one person said.
WTF is wrong with you? Why can't you say 5 years?
...because isn't that more important?

Here's the patch for 8.5: https://cgit.drupalcode.org/dr... Notice that the sanitize_input_whitelist values aren't defined anywhere in the patch.
Less than a year ago? I doubt it, unless my memory is failing me. Do you have a source?

The primary differences are their names, that's it.
>> After all, there wasn't anything quite like it at the time, and Americans love to feel innovative.
So I haven't been using Pandora since 2008 or 2009?
I don't see how "Copyright and the law" is a topic in Computer Science *or* Computer Science Principles.

I don't even know what to say to you. maybe "open your eyes" :) Maybe you have a hard time differentiating between real content and advertisements?

"we don't want to be perceived as wanting to disrupt economies" Who is this "we" that you speak of? Bitcoin had no central spokespeople.
This.

They were hacked or were being hacked. They took the systems offline to prevent further theft of data.
