Would you consider passwords to be security through obscurity? Security through obscurity isn't a bad thing- it just shouldn't be what your security relies on.
In one of your interviews, you mentioned that contracts with the music industry should be likened to indentured servitude (must produce X albums, but the label has the final say on if what you produce was acceptable). Why do you think so many artists willingly accept these terms? What can be done to promote contracts that are more fair?
You can put security measures into bytecode you couldn't put into machine code. Also, it allows Windows to optimize for different processors on the fly.
If you knew that all you had to do to get what you want was whine and fuss to your god, do you think that you would want to do much work?;) Try not babying them so much, and they will take care of themselves.
I'd just like to say something to the trolls here on Slashdot: You guys need to try harder. If you do some searching on the 'net, you will see what people think of Slashdot trolls. It's time to bring the true art of trolling back.
You wouldn't happen to have some code or pseudo-code samples of those programs, would you? It sounds really intriguing; how did they manage to exploit bugs in your program and work together?
Well, an x86 port does not imply x86 architecture. Apple's not stupid enough to kill off their hardware sales- after all, it's what keeps them so strong. Using an x86 chip in a custom Apple architecture gets rid of the whole issue with Motorola and IBM, but maintains Apple's grip on the Mac hardware market. Now THAT is more plausible.
What are you doing? You can't post an article that actually requires people to read it before they respond.. it's against the Slashdot Code of Ethics! Next you'll expect us not to pull comments out of our asses.. yeah, right.
Not in that sense.;) It's just something that if you don't take care of, tends to eat into your productivity a lot.;) It would be funny to see a company institute a policy against that though.
I can see where you are coming from. If employers are using monitoring equipment to capture personal information about employees, I'd be against that. If they are using it to make sure their workers aren't just sitting around viewing porn, that's another, though. Making it a compromise, although not required, would be a good idea for both employer and employee.
It's not the company's problem that your bank does not have hours conductive to your work schedule. That is between you and your bank. And yes, I have, and yes, it's a pain. But it's still not my company's problem.

From the article:
But I cop to it: The use of the cell phone made me temporarily insane.
Er.. ah.. hey, works for me!
Judge: You are on trial today for killing 40 pedestrians while driving. How do you plead?
Defendant: Well, you see, Judge, I was on my cell phone at the time..
Judge: Ohhh.. our mistake. You're free to go.

Troll, perhaps, but very true.

Slashvertisements!
For those who weren't aware, the OS shown in the screenshots is Qtopia, by our friends at Trolltech.

Not very bright, are you?
At least they don't implode in your lap. That might get pretty awkward.
Er, there's WAY more to a computer than its CPU. Windows will run on the current Macs too just swell, and you don't see your scenario playing out.
You mean your Geforce2go?

Telemarketing?

Um, maybe they shouldn't play games at work. (:
The reference is to the fact that dead languages (Latin, for example) are still taught in schools.

iBooks start at $1200- that's not too bad for a laptop. Maybe you are thinking of tiBooks, which start at $2500.

Amen.

Um? If you don't like Google's ranking system, don't use it. Nobody's forcing you to. What's the issue?
