Apple is a perfect example of innovation not being stifled by "counterfeits."
Despite Microsoft copying the Mac OS, the mouse, the 3.5" floppy, the no-floppy. Apple continued to innovate. The Newton, the first portable Mac, the iPods/iTunes, iPhone and now the iPad...
So does this throw away the argument onto which our copyright laws are based? That is innovation and creativity is sufficient for success regardless of copycats. Otherwise, Microsoft should not be allowed to exist.
What are you waiting for? In one hour, you can code at least 3 apps, each making $1,400. Sound like you probably have a better paying job. The coding part of application development is less than 5% of a full application development cycle.
Physics use mathematical tools and most of its notation. However, this serves as a means to an end. That being said, you can also follow Leonard Susskind Stanford lectures on Quantum Physics and learn how Einstein's worked out that E=mc^2 with grade 13 math.
I think you should look closed to home when you make statements like "bending the laws to benefit their companies at the expense of foreign ones." Clearly this is not a problem invented in China. The US for example, despite having signed the NAFTA and being in agreement with international trade laws (WTO), have in numerous occasions bent the rules. One example is the Canadian softwood lumber dispute. The difference here is that the US can "bully" Canada but China owns a large part of the US foreign debt and can't be as easily "bullied."
I think she was elected by her party not by all of Australia. The next elections are going to be interesting. For those interested in a similar situation google Kim Campbell Canada Prime Minister.
I'm over 40 (almost 50) and get all new technology except for mobile phones. Maybe it's just me. I just don't have the social network I used to have in my 20s. By get, I mean motivated/interested in developing applications for. Not many new graduates seem to understand web services, SAS or SOAP.
Making decisions without facts. Great going dude. I bet you also believe in all the statistics published. I believe in the saying "buyer beware" and yes, companies generally gouge us. All of them.
I'm wondering, not worried at all about it btw, if exposure to sunlight (UV for example) or other microwaves might in fact disrupt some of these bonds. I'm speculating here but maybe the density of BPA in nylon, polyethylene, polypropylene or even polystyrene is unmeasurable under normal use in comparison with polycarbonate plastic.
On the grand scheme of things, we have yet to see a serious (as is worse than the flu virus) consequences of endocrine disruptions in humans. The most alarming note come from the NRDC where they say "And as was the case with DES, parents' exposure to certain chemicals may produce unexpected -- and tragic -- effects in their children, even decades later." And this is "certain chemicals" and "may produce."
Not sure if TFA mentions this but you can still request a printed copy of the phone book. It simply will not be automatically distributed. This change only affects larger metropolitan areas where the phone book is printed separately from the yellow pages. Smaller communities have yellow pages and white pages in the same book.
Photons are also massless and also interact with matter. Photons/electrons are also waves/particles which make them rather interesting. There might be different types of neutrinos. Some with mass, other with none. Since neutrinos are the results of a proton collision, the opposite - recreating a proton with a neutrino/strange quark collision might also explain this "mass-like" behaviour. Interesting nonetheless.
I think they added Craig's list to avoid looking like they're picking on only one company (eBay). This is going to be also interesting information for international sellers. I'm sure their government is looking for extra income as well.
I spend more money on movies (cinema and DVD/BD purchases) than I ever did before. I see a simple explanation: Hurt Locker made no money and investors need to blame someone. Hell, let's blame piracy. Surely the only possible reason since they received rave reviews. Marketing has absolutely nothing to do with it. I for one haven't seen any of the Oscar winning movies. Yet my initial statement stands true. Maybe people aren't into war movies where aliens are absent.
BP is a corporation. What's the point of suing them or making them pay? All that's going to happen is an increase in your petrol prices (orchestrated together by all oil companies). I think charging BP/subcontractors of criminal negligence is more likely to be a deterrent.
Surrounded by what? The last graphic I saw showed rock. The mud is likely just a few meters deep after which it's the earth crust. Being in the ocean, it's a very hard rock. Maybe it's not too late to nuke it. The damage is as bad but it's going to get a lot worse unless they cap it now.
The US don't want to enforce copyright, they want to reduce everyone's privacy rights. This copyright BS clearly hides an agenda of controlling everyone everywhere.
Letting go of a single iPhone or iPad is heart breaking enough. If you ever had yours stolen or damaged you know what I mean. Withdrawal is hell.
Now, can you imagine a Taiwanese worker having to see hundreds, probably thousands of these units go through his hands, having to test them, love them, then having to let them go?
I'm sorry but I agree with commodore64_love Apple's factory is a particularly cruel place to work.
Seriously, these people were actually making money? And what's wrong with porn? The article makes it sound like its a bad thing. Why not mention how they were hosting images of children, sites of various religious groups, even recipes for Kentucky Fried Chicken(tm) batter!
Good riddance for the rest but please use better judgment when selecting articles.
Usually, I believe is the key word here. Maybe they left in a large margin of error. All things considered, the chance of two satellites colliding is astronomically minute. If you would take all the billiard balls on a table in a break triangle and pretend gravity reverses for them only until they reach geostationary orbit, they would end-up about 20 meters apart from each other. Quite a big distance, yet they started very close to each other.
Not my experience. All AMD based mobos and processors I purchased in the last 10 years have lasted many years past their useful life. I'd buy AMD again with confidence.
Although not as fast as the 980X, the the new X6s are quick enough to offer compelling value versus even like-priced Intel CPUs. And the kicker: the X6s will work in a good number of older Socket AM2+ and AM3 motherboards with only a BIOS update.
So doubly pointless
Indeed as this is the "the" new X6s.
I still like the underdog and hope they do well. The latest and greatest is often overkill.

"Two thumbs up."
In my opinion art, being one of the ingredients used in making a video game, automatically qualified it as a work of art.

If only they would take away the right to drive petrol powered vehicles. Many lives would be saved.

This is not a theory. It was demonstrated experimentally.

Nintendo is also very restrictive. Why don't we hear complaints about them?

Well if your load average is always less than 0.10 your computer is likely overpowered.
