    Probably not billions Hyundai only paid out $450 million in North America when it fudged the numbers of its mpg so I doubt it will exceed a billion, fines included.

    Yeah but a criminal is going to go online and see what your computer is going for and then realize its value (how easy to fence) and throw it in the nearest dumpster.

  10. Re: Software engineer fails to understand business on How Developers Can Fight Creeping Mediocrity · · Score: 1

    ^^

    This so much I worked for a company (had 8 devs) that implemented profit sharing and in the beginning it felt like a good idea but after awhile I realized that half of the devs either were (or became) slackers and still got a big bonus at the end of the year.

  11. For me yes it is on Ask Slashdot: Everyone Building Software -- Is This the Future We Need? · · Score: 1

    I recently stumbled upon Apple's headline for version 2 of its Swift programming language: "Now everyone can build amazing apps." My question: is this what we really need?

    As someone who regularly fixes software built by morons I see my career never going away.

    Build on clueless, build on....

    A source "with detailed knowledge on the matter" told Reuters that hiring screeners for Booz Allen had found some details of Snowden's education that "did not check out precisely," but decided to hire him anyway

    Resume falsified, yup sounds like a typical "expert" to me.

  18. Re: Harvard is the right place on Everyone Hates Harvard · · Score: 1, Insightful

    Its funny how muricans always blame their president for problems like these yet its the people of murica with their insatiable greed of consumerism that pretty much caused Bush and Obama to make sure their foreign interests are protected.

  20. Re:We need this why? on Chrome Beta Now Automatically Pauses Less Important Flash Content · · Score: 2

    This is my thought exactly it's up to the content creator to define what is important and the user to agree or disagree not the browser. Seems that Google just wants to make sure that it's content loads and works first...

  21. Small game developers like... on Valve Introduces Steam Refunds In Advance of Summer Sale · · Score: 1

    some developers of smaller games that take less time to play through are worried that this will lead to abuse

    You mean the pay-to-play and the pay-to-win developers then?

    These days I tend to watch gamers on twitch play a new game before I commit to see if I will enjoy the game play, also to see if they can finish it in one stream session.

  22. Re:Hmmm ... on Windows 10 Release Date: July 29th · · Score: 1

    So far I don't see any perf issues with the rig I am running (older i5, 4GB RAM, Intel GPU 1TB HD). However I do see issues with the entire start menu feature. That is so buggy and full of UI consistencies I feel that they are going to shoot themselves in the foot with OEMs and power users.

    Since most power users know not to install any MS OS that has not seen the "SP1" update and OEMs are not willing to take a bath like Win8 MS needs to release a "it just works" version.

    Also its possible that the idea of the "free" version makes early adopters the final bug testers. I know that I will be waiting till the last possible moment to get the free version installed unless it looks like things work pretty good from the get go.

    Confused or want karma points, probably the latter.

  24. That easy to detect... whew! on Trojanized, Info-Stealing PuTTY Version Lurking Online · · Score: 1

    2015-05-19 Malware pretending to be PuTTY

    A Symantec blog post warns that a trojaned copy of PuTTY has been detected in the wild. Fortunately, it's easily recognisable by its version identification ("Unidentified build, Nov 29 2013 21:41:02"). If you've encountered this version, we suggest you treat any machine that's run the malicious version as potentially compromised, change any passwords that might have been stolen, and resecure the accounts they protect.

  25. Re:My .$02 on Is Agile Development a Failing Concept? · · Score: 4, Insightful

    It only works when everyone is on board and willing to keep working on it. Right now I work on a large project that started Agile but the only thing Agile about is the velocity they want out of us while throwing away the rest.
