Decent project management will see when things are under resourced, and help to fill in those gaps (if possible), and should keep the project going in the right direction.
That's (probably) more mythical man month PM bullshit right there.
Generally in a software project "under-resourced" means the milestones aren't being reached, which either means you have bad milestones, bad requirements, or bad coders.
Adding another 5 coders to part of the project doesn't make it go faster if the first one has written a pile of garbage and it needs to be unpicked or more likely the new coders are rubbish and no one wanted them on their project, so they're available to "help".
Most PMs I've met have been great people with great PM skills, and no clue if what a coder is telling them is accurate. I'm sure there's some counter-example with great code assessment skills, but that doesn't make them representative of the class.
You don't allow the web servers to pull the entire database, unless it's MyFirstWebApplication with GRANT ALL TO 'webserver'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'p@ssword'.
You only allow the web server to pass a set of identifying data, like Name, DOB, Address, and return the (hopefully) single match.
You may well have full access from a workstation in the office, or from other servers in the data centre, but NOT from the publically facing internet unless you're incompetent.
Sure it matters how much, if you want a corporation to stop a behaviour it has to cost them more than it profits them; 1.2MM is unlikely to accomplish that.
Gonna call bullshit on that one. I can find a dozen articles that will confirm you should turn your flash off (and anything that is making aperture/exposure decisions based on the flash is going to be underexposed). Feel free to post one article to the contrary.
My favourite is the thousands of camera flashes you see going off at stadium sports events, because your flash works over 50-100 feet and doesn't just give you an underexposed photo with a really nice shot of the back of someone's head in the foreground.
I don't use Uber, but as I understand it the user can't see their rating until after they rate the driver, and vice versa, to avoid retribution ratings; but that only works if you never see that driver again, or they forget you between trips.
The same thing would apply to tipping; if I was seeing the same driver a lot, I'd think it's probably wise to tip to avoid getting rated down.
Not that I don't tip cabbies, but I always tip them in cash because then it's up to them where it goes, not the cab company.
Hell, I wouldn't even trust Uber to pass on the entire tip, they're already known to lie to user and driver about the real fares, and I figure they would just use prevalence of tipping as a data point to change the base price up.
You just have to make the exchange to real currency illegal; all the BTC folks want the ability to buy shit from people that don't share their delusion of value, which is most of us.
I should think it should at least be faster.... if there's an oven in the car then it should be able to complete the cook on the way to the house.
If they just mean a warming oven, then meh. I generally had to go out of the apartment when I lived in one to get the pizza anyway, none of the drivers had a clue where apartment 23 of 50 was.

Yeah, that would be a perfectly reasonable comparison if every brand laptop manufacturer decided to hack the Windows kernel with a custom UI to make their laptop superior to others, and then couldn't be arsed to every do an update because they'd already sold it, so the work to backport the security was operating costs they don't want.
It's the manufacturers choice to do more than add apps on top of the vanilla OS.
What Google bloatware? What, if anything, rises to the level of manufacturers installing Facebook on your phone with no way to remove it, and it starting up every time you start the phone regardless of not having a Facebook account and sucking 20% of your battery.

Oh no, won't somebody think of the drunk children?

I should have said "can't necessarily", some you can like the right to sue in the US, apparently... but not things which are illegal.
Yeah, what the AC said, you can't negotiate away legal rights.
Just because I put "we have first right of refusal to any of your off-spring" in the EULA doesn't mean I can come and take your kids.

That's like fining an individual about $5 for thousands of violations.
Why didn't they just send them a sternly worded letter?
No need to wipe it, you keep it there and only issue invoices for > $10
Invoices are what go "overdue", not balances.
Sock puppets are people too, my friend!

It's optional if you never get the same driver twice, or they all have bad memories.
Both of these seem implausible if you use the service a lot.

I was envisioning the "pizza ATM" in the summary to handle that part, and keep their filthy mitts off my pizza.
If I found it was at all trivial to get at anything but my pizza, it would be my last order... it's bad enough having professionals spit in your food.

They're not well targeted though...

Because they're not, it's a ripping yarn though.
Wow, that's a long time to be running a modernization initiative.
Yeah, I think a lot of people are confused by exactly how narrow the context is for the Trademark...
This would have just covered cereal boxes, but there are already a dozen other yellow cereal boxes.

Though, if I had to say, I think that purple is a LOT more distinct than the Cheerio's yellow.
Sure, Touchwiz is just a skin and a few UI tweaks.
I'd say you're talking out of your ass, but it seems redundant.

It's the manufacturers problem.

Google+? N-word please.
Thankfully they didn't multi-thread the cursor rendering or it would use more than 1 core (13% is 100% of a core).
Back in the day they used to apply a memory hack to EverQuest to put a sleep(0) into main() which took the CPU usage from 100% to about 20%
