The Anon morons think that are fighting some noble battle against...who knows what...but all they really are is a bunch of stupid little cunts who like to stick their nose into other people's business
I am not fanboys of the anon, but I got to say that at least they are doing something
Mr. Aaron Swartz's death, although he has committed suicide, was inevitably linked to the way the US government's handling of the hacking community.
As a former hacker --- although for old farts like me the term "hacking" is a little bit different from the script kiddies thingy that anon are doing nowadays --- I too personally mourn the death of Mr. Aaron Swartz
I think I am not the only one, especially those of us who knew Steve Jobs, who will say this... It'll be a very sad day if the movie that supposed to tell the story of Mr. Steve Jobs becomes a movie that is "entertaining".
Steve Jobs is never an "entertaining" kind of guy. In fact, Mr. Jobs can be the worst kind of SOB when he was in his mood.
I hope the movie producer can get more information from people who knew Steve Jobs and make a movie that is not just entertaining but instead, also give proper justice to Mr. Steve Jobs, the man.
While there _are_ vendors who have failed on their Android offerings, many others are making decent profits from it.
While many of those second tier brands aren't well known to the West, they are being widely used in many third world countries in Africa, South America, as well as Asia.
Right now I'm outside of the USA and I do not know how this bizarre court ruling gonna affect me.
And I am not alone in this --- many people that I know started our respective careers and business ventures in the Silicon Valley, before moving on to something larger and better elsewhere.
There are two groups of people who will benefit from this ruling - the attorneys (particularly the tax attorneys) and the accountants.
Singapore is a tiny island nation, with a tiny population of 4 million citizens (the actually number of people living on that island is 5+ millions, but with close to 2 millions being non-citizens).
I guess congratulations are in order for that tiny nation for funding these type of advance research !
Perhaps t'is another indication of the shift from the West to the East,
I know a lot of people do not like those who are filthy rich, but you guys need to know this...
Most of those who are filthy rich were originally from lower to middle class, just like you guys.
They got to where they are because of one thing - they got tired of working for someone else.
I know, I know, the recession and the tech have killed a lot of middle class jobs, but to some, this crisis is the perfect chance for them to do something about it... like starting their own business, instead.
So... why are you guys moaning the loss of your work?
What is the use of complaining?
Do you think that by complaining here (and elsewhere) you can get a better job?
Why don't you start your own business, for a change?
* 3. How come the American scientists never detected this viral gene?
* 3(a). Was it because of incompetence, or was it because the American scientists were not allowed to publish their finding, if they had found it before the Europeans?
Slashdot Mirror
And Japan?
Still dreaming of their "Empire of the Rising Sun"?
What do we have in the good ol' U. S. of A ?
Why people are worshiping Obama ?
Isn't that "cult of personality" at work ??
The one reason that Newegg prevailed is because they hired a great team of lawyers.
As for the others ... Nordstrom, Macy, Home Depot, Radioshack, Kohl ... they should sack the morons who are running their respective legal department.
Was it the Koreans ?
Or was it the Japanese ?
... I'll nominate the punch cards as the most solid stack ever
Samsung Rugby Pro or Sony Acro S
Thanks !
Got any other recommendation ?
Thanks again !!

When people talk about "education" they always think of getting a degree or something
But to us, who have been in the tech industry for ages, we know that education doesn't always necessarily equate to sheepskins
I rather pay high salary to a guy who knows what he is doing than another one who comes with a stack of meaningless sheepskins.
He also says he hopes it's entertaining.

... easy to assume most of the filthy rich made it because they were born into wealth ...
If that's what you like to think, that's what you'll end up thinking.

Don't blame professors for this. Look higher.
A professor who cowed down to tptb is a professor with no integrity
The job of a professor is to teach
But "teaching" encompasses more than the particular subject at hand
The character of the teachers (professors for this case) is also an important factor
Students learn much more from professors who have backbones than those from the family of invertebrates.

Like the saying:
Those who can, do
Those who can't do, teach
As one who has plied this trade for decades, I'll tell you that programmers are human beings, just like everyone else.
We urge for recognition, and we need money.
You just do not tell us to do what you want us to do without recognizing the hard work we have put into debugging the products.
And you will not go anywhere if you do not pay us.
There are many questions one should ask:
* 1. Why is that viral gene in there?
* 2. Was it put there by accident or by purpose?
* 2(a). If by accident, how, when, what happened?
* 2(b). If by purpose, why, and by whom?
* 3. How come the American scientists never detected this viral gene?
* 3(a). Was it because of incompetence, or was it because the American scientists were not allowed to publish their finding, if they had found it before the Europeans?
Just wondering ... How they gonna get the "latrinal gold" out from such deep underground hole?
There are protocols which are published and then there are protocols that remains unpublished
How about those protocols which have remained unpublished?
Any way to test those?
I signed on with my hotmail account.
Hours have passed. No confirmation message anywhere.
Yes, I did check the "junk" folder.
I actually RTFA.
What TFA talked about is "MEAT", and it doesn't really matter *WHICH* type of meat that ends up in the economy burger, as long as it is "MEAT".
This is totally horrendous.
And I thought the gomen takes good care of the people !!!
t of us (excepting most Africans and Chinese) have Neanderthal genes in us.
I suggest you go back and do more study.
Of all the human sub-species only the Africans do not have Neanderthal genes.
I am no Apple fanboys, but the title "Apple kills competitor" is misleading.
Lala.com was for sale. Apple bought it fair and square.
If only Google wasn't so foolish to play lowball, Google would have a powerful franchise right now to out-compete Apple on its own turf.
Cows produces methane on earth.
But cows can't survive on Titan's climate.
There must be a lot of "something" on Titan that are producing the massive amount of methane.
They could be nano-cows.
