Go with tmpfs. It has the highest performance of any of the "standard kernel" filesystems, and if you use it for your personal webserver/blogserver/mailserver/etc, it will never lose any valuable data if the server reboots unexpectedly.
There's also fraud, which isn't exactly polled for either.
I would suggest that the number of positive responses to the polls that ask "are you going to commit vote fraud this year?" is a statistically-accurate sampling of the actual in-person voter fraud.

Lawyers (and the court) don't like it when a propspective juror asserts a particular layman's interpretation of legal language, without the expertise and knowledge to include relevant case law and history. They don't like it because it makes it too easy for a party to say "See, Juror X didn't follow the court's instructions on what the law is".
Which is exactly the problem that Samsung has with Mr Hogan's statements on what it takes to be prior art.
But yes, it will keep you out of the jury pool. Alternatively, you could just state that your are in favor of the death penalty for all criminals, including traffic violations.
IANAE (snip) this combined vector is canceling the centrifugal force of orbiting earth+moon.
This gravitational attraction is creating the centripetal acceleration that creates a closed orbital loop. There is no centrifugal force, only the intertial tendency to move in a straight line.
On "there really is no planet", then why is GOOGLE SKY hiding the spots in the videos at the coordinates noted in those videos with a SQUARE BLACK SPOT????? That reeks of something wrong in and of itself, bigtime.
OMG, YOU"RE RITE!!! There's these huge BLACK regions all over the place! Google must be covering up hundreds of thousands of planets. Or maybe that's where the UFOs are.
Or maybe it's just that there's a lot of empty space out there.
There's "street legal" (nothing by-prescription), "stock" (allow some drugs, more or less like today), "top fuel" (Any drugs are allowed), "supermodified" (passive non-drug improvements are allowed. If Tommy Johns surgery makes you a better pitcher, go for it. Want to stretch the webbing between your fingers to swim faster, fine), and "funnycar" (Look, I've cut off my legs and replaced them with carbon-fiber springs. I can run a 2-second 40.)
If this had happened inside a closed-source project, we never would have seen these 0xB16B00B5, so this is a good thing. Kidding aside, They might have been noticed in a hex dump by some hackers, but more likely it would have stayed an inside joke among the developer who put the value in, and the other 2 people he told.
But it happened in Linux. Somebody noticed it. And it was very quickly determined exactly WHERE the code had come from, WHO put it there, and WHEN. And it was removed quickly.
Next time a closed-source advocate mentions "you don't know where the open source code is written", point this out. You know more about who wrote this code than you possibly could about any closed-source.

FSF has no grounds to sue Microsoft, even if this is deliberate. Microsoft has no monopoly or close to it in the webfilter arena.
Yet another person who doesn't understand antitrust law.
A party that has monopoly power in one market MUST NOT take actions (even in another market) that unfairly sustain that monopoly, or extend that monopoly to other competitive markets.
If you don't think that the reason your company doesn't have a development team is important to this question, you're wrong.
You will not get better results by outsourcing development. There are *different* issues with outsourcing. You still have to manage them, define concrete requirements, run independent test/QA, deal with the legal contracts, handle 13.5-hour timezone differences (which makes meetings a royal PITA), etc. I'm not an accountant, but when I add all of those costs up, the $20/hour saved may not be worth it.
Is the company not willing to pay developers properly? MAYBE you'll find cheaper programmers overseas (but see above)
Is the company not wanting to invest in the next product by hiring developers to build it? In that case, you (in IT) would be well-advised to look for a company that will exist a year from now.
Let's take the marketing claim that dedup will save you 10x on storage.
And let's assume that your tier-1 vendor charges you $2000/TB (raw) for their dedup appliance.
That's an effective cost of their solution of $200/TB of deduplicated data, which is close enough to the cost of a hard drive to ignore, especially when you talk about corporate budgets.
Now, from experience, $2000/TB is a low price for a dedup appliance. $5000 is closer to the mark. That means you get to spend $500/TB on your whitebox non-dedup storage array, which means you can easily mirror (RAID-10) your collection of SATA drives, and still hit your target price.
Am I missing something? The posts so far refer to this as a hash table collision DOS vulnerability, but MS categorizes it as "Elevation of Privilege" vulnerability.
Rather than let the crowning achievement of orbital optics burn up in the atmosphere, why not boost its orbit out of earth's neighborhood. Kick it up to a LaGrange point, or even further. Even if it floats in space until it runs out of batteries, it's still better than ending up as a ball of flaming metal in the upper atmosphere. And next century when spaceflight is commoditized, someone can salvage it and bring it back for a museum piece.
The Mars rovers have shown that useful science can be done far beyond the expected lifespan of the equipment if given a chance.

C++ is equal to C in the context of the current expression (atom).
Or don't you understand the difference between preincrement and postincrement?
The fact that ++i and i++ can be interchanged in many contexts is an optimizer feature.
int main(void) { int C=11; if (C==C++) printf("They are equal\n"); }

Also I'm not a kid and I've never seen this "1M = 1000" terminology in anything related however tangentially to EE stuff or even IT stuff.
You never looked at a 1.44 Mb floppy disk?
