I seriously doubt anyone would object to your last point. Myself, I'd be proud if you picked my code (were I to actually stoop to writing JavaScript) to masturbate over.
Don't know what Exchange offers, but it's easy to share calendars (dunno if you can make a calendar private and only allow a group of people to view it, without manually adding the people one by one, but yeah), for people to view others' calendars, and to find 'free time for all'.
Sounds like your employer/colleagues were pieces of shit. Doesn't necessarily mean that's the norm, or that you can't find better. But, keep on fighting the good fight, sir!
On the first point, since Android is open source and I can't download all of that source either I see no reason why the partial codebase of iOS does not qualify.
You can download all of Android's sources.
Where can I download Moto-Blur?
Moto-blur is not Android, it's a replacement UI developed by Motorola. Which, btw, is not as easy to do in iOS (and probably a breach of contract).
the second is at least a questionable claim, given that language preferences vary so much.
That has nothing to do with it. The fact is Objective-C make code injection incredibly easy, which means it's much easier to hook into and modify specific parts of existing applications.
It's not about language preference, it's about a specific side effect of iOS software being written in Objective-C.
But then again, that's not exactly allowed, is it?
Unless you're using the old BSD license (with the advertising clause), BSD is compatible with GPL. And as far as I know, pretty much everyone moved away from that.
My point was, integrity (values/moral, figurative definition) of policemen works just as well as the literal one. If anything, integrity as being whole, seems to me would apply better to the police corps, not to an individual:
intégrité, nom féminin
Sens 1 Etat d'une chose qui n'a pas été altérée
Chose means thing, and while you can apply this to a person, it just sounds weird. But, we're just splitting hairs here.:-P
My French is very rusty and google translate doesn't work with https (and I'm too lazy to copy paste everything by hand), but from what I saw, it has photos and names, no addresses, phone numbers or shoesize. It also had screenshots of facebook with them saying they hate non white people and similar for a couple of them.
The article is misleading, yes. But so is saying they're disclosing personal oh-so-sensitive information.
By the by, do SI users measure their weight in newtons (the correct unit) or kg (from what I remember from when I lived in Germany, the one they actually use)?
So, wait. What do Americans measure weight in? Or are you saying two wrongs (not using SI and not using the right unit) makes it right?

Because definitely the main purpose of minifying is to obfuscate code...

I still remember laughing ecstatically at the big bad Pentium's FDIV bug that was taking down all the brand new PCs my hall mates were buying.
What the fuck are you talking about?
What you're saying is that if you call the company behind a closed source, they'll be happy to take your money and develop your feature?

Only, McDonalds is mostly a franchise. But, yeah, sure.

I'll be reading a book and then realise I've been on auto-pilot for the last 3 pages and actually have no recollection of what I just read.
That happens to me too, but what makes it especially annoying is that when I re-read, I recognize it and slowly start remembering what I read.
because they cannot track the bugs people report against the package in that piece of shit launchpad.
How exactly do you buy things ONLINE?
With a debit card.

Lazy journalism. The coldfusion stuff was made by Luis Majano, whereas the logbox the nutcase in question is talking about was made by this guy: http://www.fabioghioni.net/blog/2011/10/20/internet-e-l%E2%80%99arbitrio-assoluto-sui-dati-dei-service-provider-presentata-al-parlamento-l%E2%80%99iniziativa-per-un-sistema-di-controllo-sotto-garante/
How can you tell which of the two meanings they used? From what I see on http://dictionary.reverso.net/french-english/atteinte , it's more likely to be used with the figurative sense of intégrité.

How would that help if an attacker can inject/remove data, not only sniff it?
Agreed - hard to believe this is from still frames.
Just like it's hard to believe any movie is made up by still frames?
You do know that's not how the numbers you're talking about work, right?
It is illegal to do that in Romania. As it is to deny that the Holocaust happened.

It's easier to compare electronic formats, than dead tree ones.
I find it hard anyone uses it nowadays, but hey...
Wrong.
You don't even have to RTFA to know that there is no patch available.
