In fact, if they can show that this judge ruled more harshly in retaliation for doing something that is completely legal, they improve their odds of getting it overturned on appeal. So they should actually be trying to anger this judge (through entirely legal means, of course).
Yes, that's why it's so interesting to see what the judge will do next.
I think that argument goes out the window when Samsung specifically says [allthingsd.com] the whole point is to influence the jury:
I don't see how. That was their statement about being pissed that the evidence didn't get admitted. As the Groklaw article said, Samsung is fighting Apple in two courts now, and one of those is public opinion. I think this side of things requires they make their arguments in public. In addition, the judge denied sealing all the documents, so what else to do be release them yourself.
I chuckle when I see what the Warren Court has wrought. Some pepper-spray and light usage of a police baton, and people are screaming the police are overly aggressive/brutal, and using it as proof of a "police city-state". Fourty-plus years ago, if one was unfortunate enough to have an encounter with a baton, the beating was vicious, and continual until the sounds of bones breaking was heard. Some didn't survive. Police interrogations were often just as physical as they were mental. And police could tap phone lines outside of the home without a warrant (Olmstead v. United States, 1928), which I totally agree with (of course, I grew up during the last few years of party lines in my hometown, so my perspective is everyone is listening...just like we did).
An honest, object comparison of history to today will show this is nowhere near a police state.
Right, and they used to hang black people from trees too, but that doesn't mean there's no racism today because nobody is hanging from trees.
At least the C++ community saw it for the bullshit that it is. While they went somewhat template-crazy at times, at least they managed to avoid the sheer stupidity of "design patterns", for the most part. That's probably why most real software today is written in C++.
Ouch. So you're one of those then eh.
I love how you say the C++ community saw it for the bullshit that it was, but then leave out the part where there have been hundreds of books published that relate the GoF patterns to C++. But then, I guess the Java community probably wrote those books too.
Yeah, this book changed my career. I think it's by far the best book in my software design collection. I've read it > 5 times, and I still pull it out from time to time and read a chapter or two.
Have you had a 26 year old PM yet? Did they produce software well? If so, where do you work, because I've not seen that anywhere. Big ideas? Sure. Great buzzword use? Absolutely. Good code monkeys? Not so much.
That's because unlike Google, Bing doesn't favor its own services over others. Google favors their news service, maps, YouTube, shopping and every other service over others. Bing returns results objectively.
>I'm glad it's a more common word now. Before the iphone, people were only interested in something if it was a Web 2.0 page because it was cool. Now we can write proper applications again.
Yeah, and if I hear "mashup" one more time, that's it - I'm tapping out.

I have not read a truthier statement all day. Explosion at the punctuation factory.
Are these the people who Google for "facebook login" and then proceed to assume that whatever they find is Facebook? The comments here are pure gold [readwriteweb.com].

Do you wonder why they keep locking your accounts and holding your money? You rolled over and took it the FIRST time and have done so since. You should've sued them the first time it happened.
Sued them for what exactly? Following the guidelines laid out in their Terms of Service? Don't be an idiot, if you use Paypal, you should read the TOS, because they're entitled to freeze your account if they think it's suspicious. Nothing to see here, move along.
1. It is clearly different from running your own email server. But it is also differrent from any email provider from which you POP your email and then store it locally.
2. No; but I am saying that if you use a premium account then you add to all those private data also now a provable address and other information. That's also true for any book that you buy at Amazon, but you typically do not leave 10 GB private data with Amazon.
3. If your first address was aj1990@xyz.edu and then 3 years later aj93@myhome.com and then changed again a couple of years, it might be fun working with those emails over the Gmail or any IMAP interface. Think also about your "sent" folder, not only other folders.
1. How is it different from any email provider that you POP you mail? You don't think they're keeping a copy? Or at least the logs to rebuild one?
2. So?
3. What's the problem with that? I have 6GB of Gmail from 7 different accounts and I don't have a problem with working with any of it.
Maybe he's a sleeze. Maybe even criminally so. You have no evidence of this, however. And fortunately, I live in a society where you are presumed innocent.
You're innocent in a court of law, but not in the court of public perception. IN many countries, perception is reality, and as such, some people think he should step down from his "Spokesman" role at Wikileaks. It's a perfectly sane request, that would serve to help the quell the perception that Assange *is* Wikileaks, which is so false.
It has been mentioned that he has been dragging wikileaks into this personal situation, for example using the wikileaks twitter feed to promote the idea that he is innocent and the US is running a smear campaign. I do not think he would be asked to step down, especially so publicly, if he had kept his personal life and wikileaks separate.
I agree. And like TFA eludes to, there shouldn't be one person speaking for wikileaks, there should be many. Maybe it's time he let someone else carry the torch.
1) I use the common "business identifier@vanitydomain.com" trick to help identify who is selling my e-mail address. Gmail has plus-addressing, which works reasonably well, however it is imperfect. Some spammers know about plus-addressing, and strip the plus.
Google Apps for Domains would work, except that you're pretty limited in the number of addresses you can use without paying exorbitant (for these purposes) fees.
Yeah. 50. You need more than that for your email address?
2) Forwarding mail to Google destroys valuable header information. Redirecting mail can cause it to get blocked by the spam filter (sometimes so badly that it doesn't even make it into your spam folder.) So even keeping your own mail server and just bouncing everything up there isn't a viable solution.
So, get google to check it for you. Don't forward it, have google check it with POP or Imap for you. No problem, your headers stay intact and you're good to go.
3) Having Google pop mail from your server is probably the most workable technical solution, but then Google has your password. Also, there are size limitations, in case you happen to have large attachments that you need to preserve.
The size is pretty large to start and super cheap to increase.
1) Privacy and possibility of identity theft.
2) 7.5 gigs is nothing for 20 years of email - unless you do not use attachments. If you upgrade, you also share your real name and credit card etc. with Google.
3) Your email address probably changed multiple times over those 20 years - do you want to change all emails in the sense that the email address needs to be changed?
1. How is that different from any other mail provider?
2. Um, are you advocating not buying anything online ever?
3. WTF are you talking about? Why do you need to change the email address on old emails again?
I'm thinking you don't know what you're talking about.

Hrm. I see the false dichotomy, I could give you the Ad Hominem I guess, but I'm missing the third.
That's because unlike Google, Bing doesn't favor its own services over others. Google favors their news service, maps, YouTube, shopping and every other service over others. Bing returns results objectively.
Right, by scraping Google's results. Right?
Sounds like a great idea, just waiting for the lawyers to get involved to make it official.

Yep.

Well, duh. Now that there's Google Instant, you don't *have* to spend any time on google.
Imbecile. Outside of the USA, the majority of email addresses end in a country-specific suffix.

WHY oh why on earth would you pay someone to do something that you can do for yourself for free?
Where do you live that it is free to keep 20GB of storage alive? No power? No hardware? I'm interested in how you get that for free?
A liberal estimate of my lifetime of e-mail is a little over half a gigabyte.
Seems a little low. I think I'm working on doing over twice that per year, and I'm not even trying to keep an archive.
