Note that Mini-B is deprecated; anywhere it is/was used, Micro-B should be used instead. It was retired because of a design flaw that resulted in fewer connections-before-failure, and when it fails, it's usually the device-side connector instead of the cable-side connector. This was corrected in Micro-B, on top of the (slightly) reduced size.
It doesn't work like that. The charger doesn't "push" amperage into the connected device, the connected device "pulls" however much current it wants/needs. A high-powered charger won't "assassinate" a connected device, unless its voltage is out of spec.
Also, your assertions regarding the French language are not supported by the evidence. As a fluent French speaker, trust me, you can be just as ambiguous in French as in English.
You freely choose to invest without any power to affect the executive pay, and then after the fact, you bitch and moan about it. Have I misinterpreted something here?
In my opinion, you must have a VERY good reason before even considering giving up ACID transactions. If your RDBMS isn't fast enough, almost certainly it's because you're doing it wrong, not because there's anything fundamentally wrong with the tool.
Those who do RDBMS wrong usually do NoSQL wrong too. Shocker, I know.
The full question is "Can a commercial software project continue to bring in enough money to fund itself if it goes open source?". And that is a very good question.
You aren't supposed to bring in money. You are supposed to start wearing sandals (preferably simply the open-toed remains of what used to be sturdy shoes), stop shaving and grow a long beard, hold out a tin cup and ask passersby for consideration, and live a happy, simple life, knowing that you've done good in the world.
Line endings aren't a problem for source control systems, they're a problem for development tools. If all your development tools were line-ending-agnostic, then your source control system wouldn't need to do line ending conversions.
I don't understand why we can't all just get along on the line-ending front. If you're a developer, and you're creating tools that can't handle any line-ending style, then you're a fool that shouldn't be allowed to touch a compiler.
If you're still editing source code in Windows' Notepad (the only text editor I know of in Windows that doesn't sanely handle different line-endings), then you deserve what you get.
But, you see, they call them "local channels" for a reason! It turns out (many do not know this) that they just BROADCAST them, right over the air! It's like a giant WiFi with all the major networks on it, streamed for free (and legally!) right to your house!
But seriously, why bother with paying for a usenet provider (which is dying) or run a BT client only to download illegal crappy encodes when I can get full-quality 0-day video streamed right to my house?
I don't think the gyro+magnetometer combo in a smartphone would be up to the task of maintaining stable flight for anything like a multi-rotor. I could be wrong, but I 'd be surprised.
We dropped leaflets in 33 cities in Japan warning them of the impending destruction of Hiroshima and Nagasaki (among others). The Japanese government made it a crime to possess or discuss them with other people.
The last apartment I lived in, there was a flyer for a guy who was installing phone jacks in bedrooms (originally there was only one phone jack in each apartment). For $45, he'd put a phone jack anywhere. I had him put one in, and he tucked the cable under the base board, and ran it up inside the wall to the jack. One old-work box later, a phone jack with no visible cable anywhere.
When I lived in Africa there was rarely an apartment building that didn't have cables crisscrossing the front and back to and from doors, windows, and balconies. Those were as likely to be power cords, though, as they were to be network or television cables.
Not a single on-campus apartment building that I saw lacked this "decoration."
Indeed. My father-in-law raises the beef and bison, we hunt the deer and elk. We do the slaughtering, and two walk-in freezers cover the storage. It's a great setup, and I know exactly where all my meat comes from, and what's in it.
Interesting. I definitely taste a difference, and for roasts and steaks I prefer beef or elk. For hamburger, pretty much anything will do, if it's lean. Deer fat especially doesn't taste very good to me.

What was ambiguous about the way it was said by poster you replied to?
Also, are you fluent in Korean? French? English?

You know, I could chop off the pinky toe of my left foot, I mean, I only use it a couple times a year!
Oracle's "snapshots" were renamed to "materialized views" in 1999, MSSQL gained "indexed views" in 2005, MongoDB "began development" in 2007.
Doomed to reinvent it, indeed.
On the other hand, a Doctor is worth 10x of a good engineer and easily should be able to make 10x the money.

If you have to have a deal (even unspoken) with your employer to have home email accounts open, you do -NOT- work at a "pretty cool place".

I think we were kinda hoping that people would leave the areas about to be nuked...
Like it worked in WWII in Japan?

How well did it work?
The last apartment I lived in, there was a flyer for a guy who was installing phone jacks in bedrooms (originally there was only one phone jack in each apartment).

You know, you could leave it for the next guy, who would probably appreciate the work you put into it!

Civil disobedience is the failure to act
So what Aaron Swartz did was definitely not civil disobedience, then... right?
You wrote, "facing having is entire life destroyed apart by the government". I read, "facing the consequences of his willful actions".
I'm ok with it.
