What are you doing with your phone that makes it possible that you've had 3 stolen from you? Are these thefts physically violent? I just can't imagine, for myself, that it would be super-easy to get my phone from inside my pocket or out of my hand without violence.
Great, block politics from your home page. This is not a tech news site, it is a news for nerds site. If you don't like politics, feel free to modify your preferences. This appointment could have very significant consequences on dozens of issues to be decided at the Supreme Court level. Many of those, no doubt, will be news for nerds as well.
Your point would make sense if it were at all true that the common description of the law had any legal weight outside of the actual text of the law and the applicable case law. That you can call something the "Was Being Bad" law doesn't mean that's what legal standard is applied by judge or jury. Presumably this description is applicable in New York:
A reasonable person may disagree with the law or it's exact wording (we are "free" to do so), but don't imply that the title of the law somehow proves a vague catch-all conspiracy.
Sadly this summary has no information at all, provides no description of the issue to be discussed, and provides no content other than links to other sources. Perhaps the submission could have contained:
- A description of the issue at hand - A reason why an uninformed reader would care about patent royalties at 24-40 dollars (per what?) - An explicit argument about why this is or is not a good thing
I have been a member of this website for years, and while I am as guilty of not reading the article(s) as the cliche suggest of most readers, I still do so if the summary has some, any, information as to why I should. This summary provides no context whatsoever to evaluate the article's worth nor describes in any way it's content.
Interesting, you've misinterpreted me I think. I'm not sure I said it was a rote task; I said it wasn't web design. I didn't intend to put web production people "below" anyone. They have a very specific skill, a valuable one, that isn't the same skill that web designers have.
In many roles and organizations these may very well be the same people. In my organization, they are typically not as it's hard to find people who are experts at both tasks. The designers produce Photoshop documents of the web page, the producers optimize, slice, and produce HTML and potentially some UI effects.
So while I agree that you could call them designers in some sense (the individuals I know who do this certainly are creative) that muddies the waters a bit when there are people who are Web Designers who don't do what they do. The value is in both roles, and some people, again, fill both roles. But they are nonetheless fundamentally different tasks.
These people don't design, they take a design and create web pages from it. We have always called them Web Production Artists or Web Production Specialists. They are not designers, nor developers. Just like the print world, where Print Production is a widely recognized discipline.
If people want their sites to be indexed, they shouldn't use forms for navigation. It's not rocket science.
This isn't about people who want their sites indexed. It's about sites that Google wants to index, but which aren't designed to be indexed. If you prefer not to be indexed, Google says they will abide by robots.txt.
Well, you act as if this is an unarguable point, and that only two options ever present themselves (misery/divorce). While I tend to agree with you in cases of abuse or other extremes, I think it's a leap to assume that all divorces are the result of irreconcilable misery. Some are a result of selfishness, lack of maturity, a degradation of the principle of keeping your word, etc. I think giving a free pass to parents who divorce because "they're unhappy" is a mistake. Successful marriages are neither a great coincidence, nor something that only worked for people born a long time ago, nor a result of a subjugation of women. They are a result of work, willingness to compromise, openness, and a mutual lifelong commitment to make yourself/her/himself a better person for the benefit of yourself, your partner, and possibly your child. Divorce can indicate that one or both partners just isn't willing to do that. Kids care about that.
The fact that programs HAVE dependencies with other programs is the whole point of Free Software. I'd love to capture all the phrases that end with "is the whole point of Free Software" and have all the authors battle it out. Now that would fun.
The file system's designer's personal life is none of my (or your) business. I'm sorry, committing murder is not part of one's "personal life." It's a crime that impacts not just the victim, but the family of the victim and the community that victim lived in. The act involves public officials and law enforcement as well as juries, judges, and other citizens. Reporting on these facts and events is the purpose of the media.
Come on, really? Complete sensationalist bullshit. Why don't we keep it up and refer to these meaningless events as "the final nail in the coffin" or ones that "spell doom" or "darken the horizon" for Vista. In case you hadn't noticed, the money's all going to the same place.
I want to be able to freely publish information by myself and about myself on an open worldwide-accessible network, but I expect complete privacy while doing so! Because I have a right to privacy!#!!!Don't I?!?!
Ahem...I have no sympathy, sorry. If you want to keep quiet, learn how to shut up.
What this shows is that there was likely interbreeding between the ancestor line of humans and the ancestor line of chimpanzees. Unfortunately, all the headlines I've read skip that distinction and dive right into "humans and chimps interbred." They were not either modern humans or modern champanzees, and were likely much closer in genetics and appearance than we are to modern chimps, even though even now we are very close genetically after 5 million years of divergence.
I would kill to find a single family house for $100k. Unfortunately, where I live (Boston), you can't find a 1BR apartment for less than $230k or so. Houses are pretty much out of the question.
As the installation notes state, you cannot install an IE 7 installation on top of an existing one. You are likely trying to install IE7 Beta 2 on top of IE7 Beta 2 Preview (the build that was released in March). You will instead need to uninstall IE7 Beta 2 Preview to revert to IE6, then install IE 7 Beta 2.
Yeah, I've wanted to google a physical department store before when I was in it and didn't know where a particular section was. It's mildly dissapointing when you realize you can't.
Perhaps you could consider alternative experiences being possible, despite your own, before using such definitive language like "obviously you haven't," etc, etc. Obviously I have, and the experience you describe is not even remotely the one I've had. I've experienced outsourced development as less productive than on-site team members, but overall an eager, capable, and invaluable source of talent when used as a supplementary source.
I work with an outsourced development team in India. They speak English, and Java. Apparently you "think otherwise?" What is the common language we don't share?

From a pragmatic point of view, who cares?
Their kids probably care.

Quit calling me IMO. Thanks.

Other than, say, English?
Well, it looks like since 2004 or so.
