It's an easy thing to fix - require that H1B visa holders receive the same pay and benefits for their work as the rest of the workforce. If companies really have problems finding citizens to fill jobs, and aren't just trolling for lower paid wage slaves, then it ought not to be a problem, right?
Man, I'd love to see the tech industry try to talk its way out of that.
It's a procedural motion for a stay pending appeal. It's not a policy endorsement, it's them looking to have the judge's ruling put on hold until appeals are over.
That's not to say that Obama won't wind up agreeing with Bush on this, just that this particular filing doesn't actually indicate that.
MSN should also have gotten an exemption, since they actually contributed more.
And if you're going to be using your money to buy influence in Washington, allowing tracking cookies for YouTube videos on the Whitehouse website is a pretty crappy return on investment.
THIS IS THE MOST SIGNIFICANT NEWS ITEM OF THE DAY AND UNDERMINES OUR DEMOCRACY!
Obama is evil because his staff allowed You Tube to set a cookie. There's a conspiracy. They've gotten to him, he's in the bag for them. I bet he got use of the orbital mind control lasers in exchange for this.
Jesus christ, what the fuck? YouTube gets to set a cookie on the page. Is that really a huge deal? Now they know you watched the Inauguration video from the White House website! Oh noes!
Qt sucks dick. It's a shitty, bloated widget set with a convoluted, badly designed object model. And I have no idea why you think bringing KDE into the conversation is gonna score points in your favor.
Yay for the licensing changes, but so fucking what in practical terms. Fuck Qt and every single person that's worked on it - if every one of those cock suckers caught the HIV tomorrow it wouldn't be soon enough.

They'd probably notice that I'm not the scat munching freak you are.
Teflon was invented by accident in 1938. The space program had nothing to do with it.
My RAID setup would use drives from different manufacturers and production lots, and contain hot spares.
Probably from the same manufacturer, with the same failure rates.
What the hell do you do to back up your 2TB drive?
That much storage in a single unit seems kind of dangerous.

The one they'd show customers in store when they were doing a bait and switch? The one the CT attorney general was investigating?
Just curious.
Yes, and let's welcome them back by taking down their webserver.
Nice job.
I was worried that congress had stuff to address that actually matters.
No, not even once. Not even after having read this review.
Yeah, sorry. Bad habit of mine.
The summary and the article it links to make it seem like much more of a big deal than it actually is:

That's a very misleading way to state it. What happened, was, the Obama people asked for a stay of the Judge's motion pending appeal.
It's not an endorsement, as you might think from the summary and linked article, of the policy. It's a procedural move.
I'm not saying that Obama doesn't or won't back Bush's view. Just that this particular filing doesn't support that conclusion in a meaningful way.
MSN should also have gotten an exemption, since they actually contributed more.

Maybe only YouTube presented a sufficiently convincing case for the exemption.

You really do love apologizing for whatever deeply un-American shit the Bushies did. People like you are what will kill our liberties.
Oh my fucking god! How do you eat such giant cocks?!?
Penis munch!
There's really nothing on.
If you're modeling anything you say, do, or think on Rush Limbaugh, your possibly being a hypocrite is the very least of your problems.
Rush Limbaugh apparently uses a Mac.
It's not an objective view - I've used Qt before, for several projects (it's our standard GUI toolkit where I work).
And, yes, I've done complex applications using it.
Qt sucks dick. It's a shitty, bloated widget set with a convoluted, badly designed object model. And I have no idea why you think bringing KDE into the conversation is gonna score points in your favor.

Actually, I do, and I've done a lot of Qt programming.
Your sarcasm is made of pure fail.
It's for stupid shitbags.
