Also, I find it odd that he focuses on the C language.
Not that there is anything wrong with the C language, but the market for C developers is not currently that good because there is already an overabundance of C developers right now for the number of C projects out there.
I fail to see how videotaped 100% clear proof of violent crime can be ignored because the police break a rule when obtaining it.
Because if you let it go in this case then you have to let it go in all cases, and if you let it go in all cases then the police are free to break into your home, car, office, etc, hack into your computer, read your mail, record your phone calls, use stingray type devices, and anything else privacy invading just any time they want just to find shit to send you to jail for.
No, there was a bloody girlfriend pointing finger at her attacker and there was an immediate need to go into the house to secure the crime scene. There was more than probable cause to search the house without a warrant.
This is not like other situations at all. The judge got paid off somehow, or he received a phone call from some higher ups. That's the real reason he was let go for that first woman.
All it takes is one Judge who follows the law to shut down crooked cops and now a violent offender is getting away with minimal sentencing. Good job, cops.
This wasn't some unrecorded probably fake anonymous tip over the phone, this was a bloody girlfriend who could finger her attacker. That's more than probable cause. The cops did their jobs in this case. The judge, or someone who can influence the judge, got paid off. It is as simple as that.
Now, this piece of trash did the same to another woman. The only reason the same judge did anything this time is because he probably didn't want to face the same repercussions and recriminations the Stanford judge faced.
Avast is known to be a company that commits fraud on a daily basis. His chances of getting a refund are about the same as getting a refund from the Nigerian prince.
That being said, the CEO of Avast does keep track of the press, so his chances of getting a refund now are pretty high simply because his story made the front page of Slashdot.
or, you know, park it in your garage if you have one instead of filling it with junk.
And when you need to get back and forth to work, just use Uber/Lyft. Thankfully, Houston is not in some third world country where those aren't an option.
Chrysler/Jeep owners should always make sure their vehicles are locked!
This sounds like the response of first level support person.
"Hello, my car was stolen. It looks like they had the key to get in and start the car."
"I'm so sorry to hear that. In the future, Chrysler recommends that you lock your car."
"But my car was locked, that's my point! I am not the only one. You guys need to do a recall to fix this security issue. Or reimburse the cost of people's car. "
"I understand you're upset. But Chrysler/Jeep can not be responsible when owners don't lock up their car."
This DA seems to be implying that pre-iPhone, his predecessors closed all their cases.
That kind of track record doesn't bode well for him. Is that really something he should be calling attention to? That his predecessors got results, but that his current office doesn't.
If the brakes were not even applied, it sounds like it was a combination of the auto-pilot failure and the actual driver sleeping soundly at the wheel.
No, the Tesla knows the speed limit. Its speed was as intended by the driver. On youtube, Tesla drivers show how they raise the automatic speed limit by 10 miles, and then lower it by 1 mile so as not to get a speeding ticket.
I don't think it makes a difference either. The court probably waited too long before getting his fingerprint. If the phone had to restart for any reason, then the fingerprint won't work anymore. It will need his passcode. Both iPhones and Samsung phones require passcodes on restart.
Back to square one. The police will probably need a court order to get his passcode now.
For one thing, having access to the sim card means they can clone it. Also, it sounds like she had multiple phones, so it's likely she used a cheap burner phone when she was abroad instead of using her main one.
Avast's CEO has even blamed its affiliates for their scams, which he claims they deactivated and are no longer forwarding phone calls from their 800 numbers to, but once the bad press died down, nothing changed, and their current affiliates are still scaring grandpas and grandmas everywhere into shelling out hundreds of dollars for worthless Avast products that claim to fix problems that those people didn't even have in the first place.
The only story that everyone seems to be missing right now is the fact that a well-known scamware company was able to place wireless hotspots within the Republican National Convention, and is actually bragging about it after the fact. I ask you. How many convention goers used their credit cards from the convention floor during that time? How many people logged into their banks to wire donations? How many used those hotspots to check email from their own private insecure servers sitting in their homes? Don't tell me that Democrats are the only ones doing it. Colin Powell, for instance, admitted as such for when he was Secretary of State.
By letting Avast scam artists get into their convention, the republicans really made a huge mistake.
Slashdot used to be very pro-uber. What happened? Is this the result of the new owners? Are people's opinions so easily swayed? Is this a case of not thinking it through originally?
Why is there a contradiction?
Take Apple for instance, I can still love Apple (under Steve Jobs), but still think that Steve Jobs was a horrible human being for treating Steve Wozniak, his daughter, and some of his employees, the way that he did.
And no, I don't mean to compliment the CEO of Uber by comparing him to Steve Jobs. Unlike Steve Jobs, the CEO of Uber is actually a big liability to his company.

I think the Uber CEO is an immature idiot, but that doesn't mean that I've changed my views about Uber or Lyft.
I love both services. I kind of wish Lyft would win in the end. Lyft is far more ethical in my mind. But I would take Uber over any current taxi system out there.
This is too early to say. Until Samsung ships, Samsung hasn't sold anything.
In any case, the software development has pretty much stopped on the Occulus in favor of the Vive, so in the mind of game developers at least, the HTC Vive has already won.

I never leave my car.
Yes, the good old standby unemployed homeless hermit strategy.
Damned if I don't 'accidentally' always throw a roadmap* up on the dashboard, right on top of the VIN plate.
*Get off my lawn!
Cool! Another idiot tourist! Tourists always leave valuables in their car. Let's break the window.

BTW, charter also carries YouTube.
That's only because of net neutrality.
Currently, cable companies are fighting to get rid of net neutrality.
I completely agree. One third of the human population has parasites inside of them. Ever wonder Brazilian women are so thin?
Take a look at this video. It looks like pasta. It's so yummy! The US Olympic athletes should be paying for that privilege if you ask me.
Microsoft paid a quarter of a billion dollars for that? W.C. Fields was right.
Don't blame Swiftkey.
Blame Microsoft for ruining a service, that was working perfectly well before the acquisition.
Google has public access. It's called youtube. Anyone can upload videos to it.
It's far better than public access cable if you ask me.

Dating is only tiny sliver of what meetup.com. Take for example the hundreds of these politics-related meetups.
And if the results are bad for the Dems, will you all publish?
Of course, they will. Avast is a scamware company. They thrive on misinformation, fear, and publicity.

What if you have to make an emergency phone call? Like, you've been shot by a police officer and you need to call 911?
Just ask kindly for a cell phone from the police. They'll send a robot to give you one.
The voice recognition of the Echo doesn't work at all for me.
If they could have a human being listening on the other end, that would be a huge upgrade for me.
This is a silly question. Developer previews are for developers.
As an Android developer, I can afford to have my primary cell phone go down, since I have many backup gsm phones I can simply replace it with.
