I'd love to start converting my home to LED lights. But right now, nearly every bulb I see is 2700K. I *hate* that sickly yellow color. So I'm waiting for 3000 or better yet, 3500K bulbs.
I own a kindle fire and while it's not a home run by any stretch of the imagination, it's not bad. I like it...a lot. There are quite a few kinks that I really think Amazon should have known better than to not go ahead and fix. Bad word of mouth or ill will can cause a lot of damage if trust gets reduced. It could impact sales of the 2nd or 3rd generation device when they do finally get things right. By the same token, I know they were rushing something "good enough" to market in the hope of not getting left out. I guess it's a damned if you do, damned if you don't kind of situation.
FWIW,...I agree with all the gripes (and I have some other issues to boot, like graphic novels simply refuse to display on my unit. I get a white screen only and so far amazon support can't figure out the problem).
So, he's opted to remove the ability for employees to have a time delay for communication. I don't know about anyone else, but if my life is full of IMs, phone calls, and drive-by conversations and I can't get a blinking thing done. If it's not urgent, send an email...and most issues at my workplace really do fall into the "not urgent" category. It would be utterly inefficient to interrupt my workflow every 15 minutes for an instant conversation.
Email also has the benefit of making the writer organize his/her ideas better. Plus, commitments are in writing. It's less likely for an email to be misinterpreted, but conversations can always be remembered in "creative" ways. The only people I've ever met who refused to do email were people who didn't want to be pinned down.....wanted to leave their options open, usually to stick other people with the work to do and/or the blame for a mistake.
From my experience (having lost a 12 year relationship) and I'm now in a 2 year old one...the big three issues that keep cropping up are money, chores, and sex.
Do you have similar ideas about the value of money and to what degree to save it, to what degree to take risk with it/invest it? Does one person spend almost every penny of their disposable income while the other saves...and thus the burden of buying big items like home repair etc. fall proportionally more on one person than the other? (assuming you proportion expenses relative to individual incomes)
Does one person value a tidy house more than the other? Trust me, if this is the case, you *will* eventually have issues over completely silly things like dishes sitting in the sink. But if you handle the differences early and can see that each person is keeping up with their end of the bargain/compromise, then living with the compromises isn't hard at all. Let the messy person have some space to themselves out of "public" view so the neat person doesn't have to rant that you can't have company over.
The last issue that I can almost guarantee will crop up is the frequency of sex. I one person is always in the mood while the other prefers several weeks between lovemaking....not fun. The person always in the mood feels like they're constantly begging and can get bummed out by all of the rejections. The person who's not in the mood will feel like they're always under assault. Why can't they be left alone for a little while? They're tired of being the fall guy or the one considered not normal.
Thank you for this post. If I'm interpreting the content correctly, kindle owners can download a purchase an unlimited number of times, but to maximum of 6 devices at a time. (the actual simultaneous devices are limited by the publisher and the purchaser doesn't know the limitation in advance...it could be 1-6 devices at a time. But Amazon is working to make this information available at the time of purchase eventually)
So it seems to be the big thing to remember to do is deactivate your kindle from your amazon account when you choose to upgrade. I think you can do it on the device via the settings menu or you can do it from your amazon account in the kindle management section.
Here's hoping that will take care of the situation. It would be annoying to be on your 6th device, decide to upgrade one, and have to call Amazon to release your content to the new device. They'll be flooded with calls in that case. So it's in their best interest to make the activation/inactivation something users can control themselves.
As someone who just started working in a library, I can tell you this. The privacy of the patrons is of the utmost importance. You agree (implicitly when you start work) to ensure that you will not reveal information like circulation records without complete compliance with the law by the requesting parties. If you can't agree to that, you shouldn't work in a library.
So much of the populace today seems to think that the right to privacy can't be abused because "if you didn't do anything, then you won't be affected". Well, I don't know what country they're living in, but in the "good ole usa" I often see someone who's managed to be misidentified, or simply be at the wrong place at the wrong time almost every night on the TV news. Occasionally these mistakes are perpetuated for such a long time that reputations are ruined and jobs are lost. There are legal channels available for authorities to use in order to request information (a supoena). I expect them to use them before coming to me. Period.
when anyone thinks it's ok to pay someone a wage that is not enough to provide them food, shelter, and clothing. Yes, on the surface it may appear better than the farming they did in the countryside. But there's more to the story than that. The chinese gov't has assumed control of all farming products. Farmers cannot sell directly, they MUST sell to the govt who resell it to the public. The cost of the products have been kept artificially low on purpose in order to create large profits for the gov't. Ultimately the point is to drive farmers off the land along with making massive profits due to low cost produce to sell while they wait a generation or two for farmers to "give up".
So these workers in the factory are trapped....between the proverbial rock and a hard place. These crises are utterly manufactured by many governments worldwide. It sickens me to continue to see this drama played out over and over again. Why in the world anyone would think it's ok to pay so little that people have to live in mass bunk type housing and eat the food provided by the company?(which may not be enough or of poor quality) It's one thing to have to get a roommate, but it's unconscionable to force such squalor on people and then point and say that they're better off than they were... when *the way they were is a gov't created crisis*.
When salaries are too low to afford someone the basics of subsistance AND it doesn't afford a few hours a day where someone can dream up a better life and try to pursue the education to achieve it *then you indeed have created a wage slave* who can never achieve anything more than hand to mouth existance...a lovely zombie indeed. Ah...but it's also assured that they can't rise up against their servitude since the means to cultivate their own food, fix their own homes (they don't have those any more either) are gone therefore they don't have the means to stage a revolt.
There isn't any such thing as a free market in this perverted global economy where corporatism and it's need for insane profits rule the day. Something is indeed wrong when competition and profits got so out of hand that it trumped being humane. Why in the world has human civilization always governed itself by the pursuit of money and willingness to use slaves in the process? Just because it always has, doesn't mean that it's "right" or that another way couldn't be devised.
That sounds like what you're saying....that it's up to the defense to turn on their "psychic" abilities, read the tea leaves or whatever and realize that they've been misled. To ignore unethical behavior because "it's not your job" or "your problem" is apathy of the worse degree. Ignoring the abuses done to others is living life with on the edge of that proverbial slippery slope. I hope you're never the one who has information or the law used unethically against you. Trust me...when it's done, you can scream for justice all you want...but all you'll hear is the sound of crickets chirping. If it weren't for whistle blowers, our legal system would likely transform into an incredibly unjust process.
"in truth as we all know the entire tech community has agreed that Mr Mckinnon is not only an idiot but a deluded attention seeker.'"

Condemming Mr McKinnon has nothing to do with how you feel about the trial. The article says the hacker community condems the *trial*. Being a "nutter" should have no bearing on how your trial is carried out.
"As for outsourcing...if I have a stable operations environment, solid architecture, dependable project management, reliable Q/A, and a clear product lifecycle infront of me, why WOULDN'T I outsource development if the quality was the same, I retain the source code, and I can get it for pennies on the dollar? "
...because outsourcing may involve building infrastructure in the other country and you may find that the pennies on the dollar figure isn't nearly as lucrative as it originally looked. It could involve cultural differences that impact business in a way that you haven't even imagined yet. It could provide you the headache/problems that at the present you don't have. Not having development problems is likely *why* you have such a good solid environment at the moment. It's easy to suceed at those tasks you listed if the technical side of the house works like a well oiled machine. But good management doesn't create great technical skills and cooperation. It just paves the way for folks to succeed *better*.
I've seen no *unequivocal* proof that the technical quality is identical. From what I've been presented, outsourcing has often caused a quality drop off or cultural/work ethic nightmares to overcome. There may be some instances of similar quality technical output, but often that's not the case. The technical shortcomings are just buried in the accoutning bottom line stressing profit.(which may not be as high as expected and/or not worth the effort or loss in reputation) In the short term it's a great way to generate wealth. But the problem is that in the long run it could impact your product reputation and eventually sales if you can't *guarantee* (and there is no guarantee...it's a hell of a blind investment) similar technical skills. So in the long term, there's a distinct possiblity that outsourcing is self defeating.
If everything is going well...why are you wanting to change it? Why do you want to throw the risk of getting a lousy development team into your mix? Remember the old saying..."if it ain't broke, don't fix it."
Digital cameras with high dynamic range essentially allow the same thing as multiple ISOs in a frame. *That's* what I'm looking to get better in future cameras. Right now, I expose to not blow highlights and have to rescue the shadows in post processing. So presently, you can appoximate it by getting a lower noise camera. With it the shadows won't be too noisy and they hold detail remarkably well even in almost black areas.
It does have more grain at iso 400 than some digicams, but I use noisereduction via noiseninja and it's an irrelevant concern. I was looking for a wide aspect ratio camera with full manual controls, a good lens, *and* one that was small and could be with me at all times. There simply was nothing else on the market that fit that criteria. The image stabilization is a plus...and I use it quite a bit.
If you're interested, here is my gallery of sample pix taken with the lx1 in varying lighting, contrasty situations, backlit, and using the OIS. I have another gallery with sample pix at iso 400 both with and without NR and RAW versus jpg files. You can find it via navigating the site.

"Alternately, if schroedinger's cat is in an alive/dead superposition in the box, then if the cat experiences a sane and straightforward set of experiences yet the outside-of-box observer claims it to be in an alive/dead combo state, then outside the box observer and inside the box observer's consciousness lines must potentially deviate. If the cat experiences no trouble at all, but the observer measures it to be dead then they're already in different 'universes' from one another.
So my last questions: is everybody else around here soulless zombies due to the great improbability that I'd be traveling along the same path as the 'conscious' ones? If not, why the heck are all you people following my conscious line for (or me yours)? That is, if multiple consciousness can occur at the split points, yet any one consciousness experiences a fluid and non-confusing pathway then how do the others experience anything."

I've pondered the same things, but since I have little math aptitude, I just spin my wheels at this point. I'd be interested if someone is pursuing this thought experiment and knows how to present it in an accurate, yet qualitative way so a non-physicist can follow.
So many of the smaller story arcs got bumbled. First the Talia arc is killed off. It had been set up to be an intriguing secondary story...but *poof*...gone. Then Ivanova was killed off. Then amabassador Delenn went all lovey dovey. Blech. It became good ole boys in space as far as I was concerned....GOBs having a war. To me the main story arc was a *vehicle* to get to see these other three. When they went up in flames, the reason for watching the show vanished.
Yeah...I know...actors didn't re-up their contracts. But it still stank to have so many story arcs killed off.
Hmmm, there does seem to be an in game shift. First you feel all bad about what you're doing, then you start to wonder just why these colossi are in the ruins of a human civilization. That is intriguing. I'm going to see if I can eventually find out the game story from beginning to end. I know, I know...it'll ruin it for me. But for some reason, I still feel compelled to have a reason to starting hunting down some creatures. If the endgame gives me that reason, then I can play the game without a nagging conscious.
Well, I read your comment. Thanks for taking the time to post it even when the article post was moving off the front page. It's great to know that there are some games out there that really can powerfully move people. I remember buying ICO, and I wanted to play it, but I couldn't. I stink at action/jumping games. I only made it through 1/2 of Zelda windwaker...I literally couldn't manipulate the controller accurately enough or fast enough. I don't know which, but I wasn't willing to spend the time to perfect my actions. I also tend to get to excitable/agitated when I have to perform action sequences and fighting in real time. So it's a guaranteed I won't be getting SOTC either. Ah well....my opinions below this post and my lack of controller skills and the willingness to perfect them...all probably a "girl thing".
Thanks. Your comment makes sense to me. It doesn't make me want to play the game (though I still want to want it), but I understand better. I don't think I used to care much about games like you mentioned. It was just a game..a venue to strategize or experience something different from real life. But I think I must be changing. All of a sudden (in the last year), I'm starting to need motivation...a reason to kill in these games. (Perhaps it's because graphics have gotten so good that you now see emotions on faces??) I play RPGs too...and I'm even getting tired of the killing in those....tons of baddies swarming me all the time. Monsters rushing...bloodthirsty. Somehow it's just not doing it for me any more. It's boring. I recall playing morrowind...and you could choose to be a thief, or a murderer. I recall upping my persusion so I could taunt people into attacking me...so I could legally kill 'em and take their stuff. That got old...fast...and I ended up not feeling too good about myself. Yeah...a GAME...got me bummed and concerened that something might be wrong with me in real life if I was willing to make a decision so easily.
Back to this game though...to me the difference is you're given no real motivation to kill these colossi. I haven't read anywhere that there's any connection between them and the girls death. Apparently your character is in such grief that he'll do *anything* to get her back. Even killing creatures that have no connection to the event...it's like being a mob henchman. In games like MW or NWN you can choose to go evil, but this game doesn't seem to give you a choice. You have to go kill these guys for some other creature to revive the girl, then you *hope* you did the right thing. I'm used to a main story at least *appearing* legit. You may find out later that you were a chump or did something evil. But you made the best decision you could based on the info you had. But in this game, you have no info, yet the main character is willing to kill...lots of creatures.
I guess it boils down to me being in the process of changing and I'm lost right now with the options available for gaming. They're not appealing any more. It bugs me. I'd even answer your question as to whether I could live with giant colossi roaming the planet...yeah...I could. If they're not hurting me or other people...why not? They'd be like a natural wonder....like being in awe. I wouldn't want to get attacked by a great white shark, but I don't go seeking them out to kill them because they *might* kill me. I'm in awe of them.
Ah well...I'll figure this slump out. Something has got to get released eventually that I like....please?
Why do I want to feel like a villan or a schumck?? I aleady know by my internal moral compass that I'd feel it's wrong to kill something that is not doing me any harm. Much less to kill 16 somethings because I'm so upset that a person I love is dead. So I want her back...but there's no way I'd feel justified in killing 16 creatures that are doing me no harm just because I'm in grief. I still don't get it.
Yes I have...grandfather...shot in the back. Two wrongs don't make a right. I still don't get why people would head out to got kill something that they have no beef with.
Argh...I hate it when people rave about a game...and I want to want it...but I just can't make myself get into the premise of killing with no motive. I guess I take games too seriously. But I just can't see any logic in killing 16 people (colossi) because you want one person (who's already dead) to live again. 16 lives for 1 life??? I still don't get it.

Much less to kill 16 somethings because I'm so upset that a person I love is dead. So I want her back...but there's no way I'd feel justified in killing 16 creatures that are doing me no harm just because I'm in grief. I still don't get it.
Yes I have...grandfather...shot in the back. Two wrongs don't make a right. I still don't get why people would head out to got kill something that they have no beef with.
Argh...I hate it when people rave about a game...and I want to want it...but I just can't make myself get into the premise of killing with no motive. I guess I take games too seriously. But I just can't see any logic in killing 16 people (colossi) because you want one person (who's already dead) to live again. 16 lives for 1 life??? I still don't get it.
