Last I checked, the little girl wasn't asking to see the library patron records, nor should she have the right to. What rights of the little girl are being violated by requiring that the police have a warrant?
There is a growing and growing group of things that seem completely out of hand once it happens to you. I'm not sure who "we" are, but we need to get together either as a nation or a planet or just some concerned human beings and take a serious look at where we are and where we want to go from here.
You should be able to hit a button that says such and such a site is relevant for the given search, rerank all other sites accordingly. Sites for musical horns aren't going to highly crosslink with sites using horn to mean "a high pommel of a Western saddle (usually metal covered with leather)".
It's also annoying that there isn't a way to sort by pages with major recent content changes.
It would be embarrassing for Microsoft to come to terms with the fact that they are, in fact able to purchase these exploits when their own people in possession of the source code and staring at it day in and day out cannot find them.
Perhaps what Amazon is really saying is that if companies weren't allowed to take out stupid patents, it wouldn't have to take out stupid patents to defend itself.
Desire to do something does not have a direct correlation with skillfulness at it, especially if those skills can be applied equally well or better to other endeavors.
It seems like the work flow (what's the right term here) is out of whack there. Database projects that "lose interest before they become complex or important enough to warrant the IT department getting involved"? It reminds me of the commercial where they discover they don't have any computer problems so they can refocus on the real purpose of the company.
The only other possible answer to this is that someone wants to pretend to have a full "life". They want to degrade and downtrod someone else to make themselves feel better about their lack of "interesting" things to do in life.
The number of female dating profiles with "tired of mind games" leads some support to that theory, though it's not entirely clear what they mean by that and may in fact be the ultimate mind game.
I wish people would quit acting as if anything was unqualifiably better. Life consists of trade-offs but to hear some people talk, life would just be a bowl of cherries if one were to just do this or that... Sheesh... Yes, Linux is better in some ways, but there's that trade-off thing at work there.
putting pigion into Google results in Google asking "Did you mean: pigeon", the correct spelling.
perhaps? But then, that would be just too obvious...
You work for a Canadian post-secondary institute and it is very puzzling and you turn to Slashdot? God help our post-secondary institutes.

In that case, I'll wait for the "In Soviet Russia" version to come out.

Hmm... Now what would be really cool would be if they had some sort of computer network to coordinate these devices... maybe some sort of SkyNet...
Except there's no link to the actual patent in this or the previous story.

Why "just social structure" of course!
That combined with a "If you license to one, you have to license to everybody" law, might be a good thing.

Funny, I would find anyone not saying "it's just social structure" in disciplines that are skewed towards women rather odd.

But the whole point of filing for bankruptcy is the inability to cover all debts. Bankruptcy is a replacement for Debtor's prison.
Try 'never'.
Worst controls ever. Can't even tell if they are working.
Um, the people with the rights to the anime music aren't the ones doing the suing.
I think that may be his wife:s s

He and his nurse, Elaine Mason, were married in 1995.
They seriously need to work on the section headings though... Much of his personal life is filed under Illness.
And besides... It's not like Microsoft can't just have arbitrary code run by making it part of any update you get from them...
