There is no such thing as "certain types of access". Every single application that pulls Hulu videos using the RSS feed does it the exact same way. The same request, using the same protocol, sent to the same server.

Was the showing on IMAX letterbox (35mm film with a zoom lens to fill the middle 60% of the imax screen) or crop/pan&scan (4:3 film filling 95% of the imax screen)? I stopped seeing non-IMAX movies on widescreen because they seemed to be in random formats. If they advertised which was which then I would know which ones to go see, but it is a complete mystery right up to the moment the movie starts.
Bullshit. Your grandfather having died of prostate cancer is part of the "evidence" (in "evidence-based medicine") in your case. It puts you in a completely different class, statistically speaking, than 99% of men. And for YOUR class, aggressive investigation and screening is appropriate. If you had died due to not being screened, and your doctor didn't screen you because you didn't tell him you had a family history of prostate cancer, guess whose fault that would be? Hint: not the doctor's.
This was years ago. Almost long enough that when I got out of those 10 days in jail and they gave me probation, forbidding me to move out of the state which I had been planning to do for almost a year, and then I moved, the warrant for my probation violation is almost expired:)
I once got a ticket on approx June 10. The court date appeared to be "Jul 12", which seems like a reasonable amount of time in the future, to me. I show up a month late for my June 12 appointment, show the ticket to the Judge. End up spending 10 days in jail for missing court.
Are you including administrative fees, filing fees, court fees, fee fees, etc? A $25 fine sounds completely reasonable when you just read the table of fines, until you see it on a real ticket and there are $172 in fees added onto it.
It isn't cheap today. Ten years from now the $25 morning after pill will come with a programmer* that lets you say "only abort the possible pregnancy if it is not going to result in a blue haired boy with long legs".
* - for the complete genetic sequencing nanomachine built into it.
Depending on the jobs that could be a great thing. I know plenty of freelancers who bill $100+/hr and work a couple of 1-2 month jobs each year and just slack off the rest of the time.
I disagree. Approaching someone's door [almost] always requires stepping onto their private property without their prior consent. Until that is not the norm, you cannot institute a blanket ban on the practice.
Blame that on Blizzard. A single employee could monitor, detect, and ban thousands of gold spammers in a single day. Making a million subscribers' days less spammy is not worth $15k/yr to Blizzard.
What makes you think the company was paying the same price for the insurance just because the cost passed on to the smoking employees was the same? I have seen the same thing done at multiple employers, and it always involved the company subsidizing the insurance. Which, once again, means it costs the company more to hire that person.
"Normal" price for insurance for a married couple vs an unmarried couple is significantly different. Whatever Google's bargaining power with an insurance company, they can negotiate equally lower prices for both sorts. Which means that it still costs them more money to hire (and provide benefits for) a gay employee, and that is the basis of this story.
Sorry, you haven't been keeping up. The popular M.O. is to sit on the idea until it has already become popular, THEN offer licenses. If you come out with the patent to begin with, potential licensees will just work around it. Waiting until they have built their business on it is far more profitable in the long run.
Unless you can provide supporting documentation, I stand firm by the position that no matter how much clout or negotiating power you have, the same amount of clout results in a lower price to insure a married couple than to insure two "unrelated" people, as is the case for "normal" insurance rates. Yes, Google can probably get a lower rate for a gay couple than a smaller company can get for a straight couple, but with the same amount of negotiating power Google can get an even lower rate for their married straight employees.
This law prevents Google from giving same sex partners benefits for the same price. Insuring two unmarried people is far more expensive than two married people.
Nowhere does it say that this practice is legal. The submitter makes a false connection between Sun saying "people selling OOo is legal" and this particular company's completely unrelated "download with no fee or warning, then later send a bill". The latter is almost certainly not legal.
I think the point of this order is to try and recover emails from third party sources. Maybe someone to/from whom some of the emails were sent had their mail client set to cache IMAP messages, and then had a new hard drive installed, so the old drive still exists somewhere with the messages they were privvy to.
"9/80" sounds like a buzzword. "8/80", more commonly known as "4 by 10", is almost certainly far more broadly adopted. I would guess that 5% of the people I know in the IT field (a total of maybe 50 out of 1000 people) work four ten-hour days per week, with a permanent three day weekend. Another 1% work esoteric schedules like 2*12+2*8, 3*12, or 3*13. I know zero people whose schedules alternate on a two-week period.
The topic of conversation here is, if you follow the thread, using the blackberry for sensitive material, instead of using one of the NSA-approved PDAs. The device cannot be wiped remotely if you do not let it connect to the BES after stealing it.
The worst case scenario is not him forgetting it, it is someone stealing it, or him losing it in some irretrievable way (he drops it off a bridge). Once someone has possession of the device, the 10 tries limit is moot. Rip the flash device out of it, read it directly from a computer, same way you read a hard drive from a "password protected" computer.

I have said to an interviewer, "That is none of your business", and ultimately gotten the job.

Developers are users too. The developer phone is easier to develop on, in the same way that a rooted iPhone is.
What would make you think that legal settlements are not taxed like any other income?

I never said anything about smaller companies.

In the hypothetical scenario in which BES-triggered data erasure is relevant, the president is not the one in possession of the blackberry.
Not if they do not connect to the BES.
