"disable aircraft communications, resulting in loss of control"
Why would someone build a weapon that could so easily be countered? They wouldn't.
People do realize we build and send unmanned drones literally millions of miles away with pre-programmed instructions, right? How do the not expect that concept to extend to drones?
Programmed to fly to a specific coordinate, using GPS from take off and flight info to calculate current position if communications are disabled by reported weapon, drop payload, fly back to take off point. Laugh. Profit from war.
I disagree with your first half, but agree with the latter.
I would like my devices to be able to easily download patches, whether they be security or new features. I don't want to have to go to a dealer ship to get a critical patch and then be talked about 10 other things I could pay for to have done.
How does something teleport across a wire? By that logic, our current communication systems are "teleporting" information.
I thought Quantum Entanglement is instantaneous and void of any connecting wires, which fits my definition of "teleportation" a little better, but I still don't think of it as teleporting.
I am an avid (paid) user of Pandora, and I love the service, have been using it for ~15 years.
But this is too little, too late... I am the only one among my friends that use Pandora. Everyone else uses Youtube, Spotify, and even iHeartRadio... I don't see this gaining any user base for them, only keeping the user base that they currently have
Well the reason is that if the US doesn't give up control, countries have been threatening with building their own internet infrastructure to run in parallel.
If these countries (Brazil, Russia, etc) did create a "second internet", then Google, Facebook, Twitter, etc, would all be shut off from their customers in those regions.
Can't do the math?
They get a lower customer base, lower potential profit, lower actual revenue. Unless the spend the R&D on developing their platform to conform to the "second internet".
The editors make this sound like what was wrong was that they were poaching each other's employees despite agreeing not to.
Wrong.
What is wrong, as clearly outlined in the article, if the editor took 10 seconds to RTFA, is that such a deal, agreeing not to poach one anothers employees, is against anti-trust laws.
Tabs for indentation, spaces for alignment AFTER indentation... Tabs so that people can choose whatever width they want, but after that width (meant for indentation of blocks) use spaces to align whatever you want...
It really isn't that hard and it pleases everyone.
If you don't like the holes that it may or may not open, turn off auto-update, sandbox an environment, then test it and submit a bug report, get your cash bounty, and quit whining "get off my lawn" non-sense.
I for-one like how simple it is getting to use my devices like this. Those "smart" TV's and "smart" media players have menus/interfaces that can kiss my ass.
How is that any different? Most of those songs are not published by the artists/media companies. Sure YouTube will take down a few, but a lot still remain. Are you not doing the exact same thing when you download and view a song on YouTube posted by an un-authorized source as you are doing when you download and view a song from a torrent site?
Honest question. Wouldn't the ISP's have to police this activity too? Who is to say the lawsuit would stop at the ISP's? If this isn't overturned, couldn't the "rights management" companies turn around and sue the providers who fail to "adequately" shutdown these sources?

Fuck that. Only reason they are so profitable is because they charge an arm and leg for them.
I'll stick with my OnePlus One that was only 300$ thank you (still has more or equal "power" than the latest galaxy or iphone) and above all, i've dropped this sucker 100+ times (without a 100$ 1" thick case) and it hasn't splintered into a 100 pieces like the more fragile than glass iphones.

You would think so...

Looks like a pretty small step for developers, and a non-existent leap for consumers.
You forget that with the installation of the App, Facebook gets access to all sorts of goodies on your phone that it wouldn't get using mobile.
Evil partners with Super Evil....
The anti-christ has been born.
and over that same amount of time we've seen the same increase in VPS's, VM's and personal desktops, thus more targets for bot nets.
not surprised...

Can someone spell this out for us lamens?

I can 100% see some fine print in their ToS that binds that person from ever using any other cloud vendor ever again.
All this bad news recently circling Oracle doesn't lead credence to their reliability as a cloud vendor.
They don't make any money off of Angular... it's completely open-source.
typescript adds "class-based object-oriented programming".
Lie.
"Classes" existed already as prototypes, and with ES6 you can create those prototypes with your favorite "class" definition.
I'll never be using typescript so I'll never be using angular2. As much as I loved working with Angular1, I'll instead move to reactjs.

For $160...
Ha, didn't even see that mistake!
If that domain wasn't on sale for 10k USD, I would be tempted to mirror ./ but with actual edited summaries.
that made me giggle irl
i'd mod this "funny", but i commented previously :(
I see a lot of posts about "why".

How in the world is that less confusing?
"Don't look at the product name to know what you are buying, look at that tiny ass number on the bottom of the box! Duh!"
I disagree.
I disagree with the whole debate entirely...
Tabs for indentation, spaces for alignment AFTER indentation... Tabs so that people can choose whatever width they want, but after that width (meant for indentation of blocks) use spaces to align whatever you want...

It's convenient.
