It's nice to see a CEO take this stand, regardless of his reasons. For the complete opposite, take a look at Honeywell. During the 2009-ish economic downturn, they cut the salary of all employees (except upper level managers) by 10% because, you know, times were rough. But simultaneously the board granted the CEO a 42% pay increase. And that was just for his base salary.
I've had to get used to all of these new terms for old things.
"maker" = hobbyist
"life hack" = useful tip
"shield" = daughter board, or just "board" or "PCB"
I still can't say "Arduino shield" without cracking a smile because it just sounds so silly to me. When I first heard the term I was wondering what kind of EMI / emissions problems people were having with their Arduino single board computers because in the rest of the electronics industry a shield is a metal fence or enclosure around all or part of a circuit board.
There is a $250k reward for information leading to an arrest and conviction in this property damage case. Meanwhile, there is a $10k reward for information leading to the arrest of the person or people responsible for firing at least 13 shots (and counting) at people along a highway (http://www.kctv5.com/story/25225197/detectives-tracking-75-tips-about-highway-shootings). It's a weird society we live in.

A "sarcasm detector"? THAT's a useful device.
Tom Tom, get yer shit together!

Reading the article summary made me want to go get a cold 20-ounce soda from the vending machine.
"It works in KSP!"
Future me? I don't envy him!

To get more actors into movie, they could set story on a bus... that just cannot go below 55mph... or something.
Just like "Speed 2", only this time with a bus!
