IT outsourcing doesn't necessarily threaten the US economy in the long term but it does in the short term. It'll be like when the manufacturing and steel industries moved overseas to Russia and Japan and elsewhere. We as a civilization will figure out how to make new industries and replace jobs.
Don't you think that google knows that people love them because they have a lightweight page? Don't you also think that if they wanted to muck it up, they would have done so already?
Um...you should read the article. Google places the ads on YOUR site, not the google search page...
"Running a combination of image and text ads expands the available ad inventory for your site, and offers the potential for increased revenue. Google's technology determines on a page-by-page basis whether text ads or image ads are likely to make you more money, and serves the appropriate format to your page."
The company also developed a kit which enables fast production of sensor networks which could control air conditioning, lighting, fire alarm systems, and many other applications. The low power consumption of the chip enables multi-year operation with only dry-cell batteries."
We have a motion sensor based security system here at home, and it goes off once a month when a spider finds its way into the body of the sensor. I'll stick with light switches thank you.
But c'mon. Where does the line get drawn? If I want the structural plans for the underground areas near FED banks, does that warrant a possible investigation? Or maybe river system topo maps with nuclear cooling intake pipes? Stop crying and suck it up...so the guy gets investigated. Big fucking deal. Tell your boss you needed these plans for your "new graphic project" and so you requested them and the FBI came. Everybody at your job gets a little excitement and we can all sleep a little better knowing that you're not planning to bomb the hell out of us tonite.
If J. Edgar Hoover wants to give you a hard time, then you will be given a hard time. It doesn't stand a a reason to not investigate someone who requests plans for underground tunnels or other major infrastructure. They didn't arrest this guy, merely investigated him. Isn't that what we pay them for? The "I" in "FBI" isn't there for "Ice Cream".
"While it can't go without saying that all our technology effects our environment, similarly it should be evident that what we do (as rightful animals of Earth) might very well be incorporated in a new Earthly paradigm of that which is "natural.""
My thoughts exactly. Like a beaver and his dam, we are just as natural. (yes, beavers destroy ecosystems too)
"The first wave of the do not call registry sign up ends 8/31. There is plenty of news coverage but they say there is already over 41 million numbers registered."
I actually read that they are blaming this accident on the "Culture of NASA". Meaning, that if you were some small fry in the organization and you saw a problem with a process, you would be afraid to approach the 200 suits. Even though they stand there and say "Anyone have a problem with what we're doing?" "Our doors are always open.."

I thought that Pixar split from the Disney Empire? What's up with that?
Can you say focus group? I would love to be a "research assistant" on this one. "Hrm. This beer IS cold, but I could use it a few degrees colder..."
Which will then be outsourced.
True enough. It's like 2PiR

In Britain, people are tired of hearing this excuse when the US blast British tanks and planes instead of the enemy.
What excuse are they not tired of when they have their ownfriendly fire incedents?

Ah, I don't think they mean that XML and PHP are their projects :)
But they are APACHE projects. From the PHP website..."PHP is a project of the Apache Software Foundation."
They still make Apples? I thought they went the way of the dinosaur...guess I should pay more attention.
That about says it.

Still though, direct TV on every flight. Kinda worth the anal probe to get to watch 7 hours of "Trading Spaces" eh?

It's not a dupe. It's what they call a "follow up".
"The requested server is full."
What's a "moma"? You must mean my "momma" deek. Plus, my "momma" is not free, she's pricey bee-ach.
"The first wave of the do not call registry sign up ends 8/31. There is plenty of news coverage but they say there is already over 41 million numbers registered."
Now if only there was a "Do not Email" registry.
But....but....but....it's easy and free.

Really? How exactly does a default shell in an OS relate to that again?
Plus if bash comes with it and all you have to do is change default shells, what's the big deal?

Sound familiar anyone?
Can you not change shells in OSX? If you can_ What's the big deal what the "default" shell is?
If you can't change shells_ then that's just plain weak.
It's Australian for fascism.
