Yes, there is (at least) one recipe for a deep fried burger. The "best" are from Dyers in Tennessee, apparently. Most are cooked in a skillet or on a grill/griddle.
Usually I like to call the HR contact after I've submitted my resume. Ask them a few questions about the job that are not answered in the ad or on the website. Good HR is able to answer my questions, a few put me through to the hiring manager.
The problem with HR is that they look for the people that have polished their resume to reflect the position perfectly. It doesn't matter that you're a 24 year old with 8+ years of experience in - buzz word that exists for only 5 years -, they'll bite. But it is accepted to tailor your resume with your knowledge and skillset and how they best complement the position you're after.
The point with robots is that if your code is compromised you have of sleeping agents in your country of choice. The code could be compromised years before it is activated and stay dormant until doomsday. The problem is mitigating such a devastating army.
I hope they truly address battery life. I understand that making motors turn and sensory input costs energy but boy the NXT 2.0 eats through a pack of batteries like a pothead with munchies. In the RC world there are lots of energy efficient battery types, and for the price I think Lego should have included a decent rechargeable battery pack (NiMh, if not LiPo).

HTC Profits Drop By 79%

Don't get me wrong, I fell in love with the specs and screen as well. I still like the model, I just happened to have gotten a lousy unit and HTC has been very reluctant to help me out for about 3 months now which is dissappointing if you've just shelled out 579 Euros (almost $ 750) for a smartphone. When I went shopping for it it was a toss-up between the SIII and the One X and brand loyalty (and the fact that I think that the blue plasticy shell of the SIII is hideous) made me choose the HTC. I've owned the Touch, Desire and bought the Wildfire for my kid and they were all good phones, where everything just worked. There are more people than just the ones on the XDA board, like I said, 2 family members have the same issue as I have but didn't notice it because they don't use the navigation on the phone.
The guys that do the pickup do all the pickups for HTC in the Netherlands and at the 3rd visit (I got the same driver each time) he told me they were picking up lots of the HTC Ones, a lot of Apple iPhones but very few Samsungs, and those were mostly by user defect (cracked screen, etc).
All that leads me to not recommending it. However: if the unit you get doesn't have issues it's a very good phone, I like the build quality and feel of it, very good phone quality, the CPU is fast and doesn't drain the battery too fast, the screen is very nice and bright, the OS is responsive, basically everything you'd ask from a top model, and something I've come to expect by using my previous HTC phones.
Don't get the HTC One X. I have had a terrible experience with this unit, I might be unlucky but an XDA developers thread of 11 pages seems to confirm that I'm not the only one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1594281
I have had the same GPS issue (as did 2 other units from family members, but they hadn't used GPS yet) as mentioned on the forum, but I've heard (from the repair pickup guy) that some units also have lots of issues with Wifi. My phone has now been picked up 3 times, once they stated nothing was wrong but that it would be fixed in a software update (your non-existent issue will be fixed in our future software update, uhuh), which it didn't. 2nd pickup (after a 3 week long escalation to their 2nd/3rd line) they changed out the mainboard but that had the same issue. 3rd pickup, unit returned with yet another mainboard swapped and the issue seems to be resolved, however the USB connector on the mainboard doesn't align properly with the body opening so I need to wiggle and force to get the phone connected to the charger/PC. I can't properly seat it on my Brodit car holder for this model because of the misalignment, and previously I had no issues.
With regards to the SIII: I like the hardware and SD card upgrade possibility, they have a decent in-ear headphone included as well (HTC has the same cheap set as they did with the HTC Desire), I just don't like the look & feel of the Samsung body. Putting a sleeve/skin on it is not an option if you want to use a proper car holder since they expect the bare phone, no extra's on it. There are a few other things I don't like about the HTC but those can be solved in software/apps. They have no automatic rotation for the home screen and their car app only has Google Maps and HTC Locations as navigation software choices. If you have purchased a different Satnav (or you use Waze) you won't be able to choose it.
What surprises me is that I see a lot of advice on Vmware, very little on KVM/qemu (which performs better btw) and none on HyperV (that makes sense) nor on mainframe. Mainframe has been doing virtualization for decades and is lightyears ahead in I/O, segmentation, auditing, redundancy, reliability, performance, accuracy etc.
The latest offering from IBM scales to 300 virtualized servers (on a z114 in the cheapest config, realisticly @ $100K). Redundancy is built in the hardware. CRC is done at the hardware level. Mind you, these systems are designed to run at 100% utilization non-stop. Not this if higher than 15% you should run physical c(r)ap from VMware.
get a cheap HP ML110 server with a few GB of RAM, load it up with disks. Get a bigger housing if the case is too small. Benefits: remote management (very basic ILO), server grade chipset/CPU if you get the Xeon specced model. I got one of these in a special offer and it runs my linux server very well. 1.6TB RAID 1 (mdraid), off the shelf disks, bought half a year apart so I don't get bitten by some bug that's in one firmware and not the other. Enough CPU/RAM/disk overhead to run the occasional test VMs. I absolutely love it. The power consumption is also quite modest at around 75W when idle. I know the NAS solutions eat half of that at most but they aren't as flexible and the Atoms in them get absolutely blown away by the performance of my quad Xeon.
I was totally lost on this as well. Although they expect Windows 8 (w8 for short, heh) to be installed on instant-on devices I guess, so shutting down isn't called for except for a hard boot with the power button. It's actually located in 2 places: Start > Settings > Power > Shut down/Restart OR Log off > enter login screen (slide up to activate, arrgh) > Power Icon > Shut down/Restart.
Who thought of this as the epitome of usability for a regular PC should be tarred, feathered, skinned, quartered and shot. Or made to use it him/herself on a regular PC for an extended period of time.
You're forgetting someting: both Google and Facebook accept a certain percentage of that hardware to break, and leave it broken until the next maintenance window. They make up for it in numbers and handle the redundancy/high availability in software/OS.
They also accept that common hardware is "good enough" and achieve performance through higher volumes.
They are also big enough to have a custom server built (design PCB, test, build etc.). Most companies aren't big enough to justify a complete custom design. Even the article only gives 3 examples (Google, Facebook & MS).
In a traditional server model you want ultimate performance (which is what a server chipset gives you) and high MTBF and a high service level (i.e. 4hr response time with parts on site). That's what HP, Dell & IBM are selling and asking a premium for.
Pair this with a prima donna attitude and a wish list of must-haves which would shame a senior on landing their first job and you've got the current situation in the Netherlands. Starters expect things to be perfect or just the way they want from the day they leave school (or buy their first house). They don't expect to work hard to earn things like that.
And if you read the license carefully you are entitled to 2 free support calls, after that you're billed € 250 excl. VAT per case just like the rest. That was the quote about 8 years ago, I don't think it has been lowered in the meantime.
Of course this is only valid if you bought a full license.

This would be the main reason this would fail. BitTorrent ports are closed at most corporate firewalls, and I don't see them opening up another set of ports. Plus usually they mirror packages/updates internally, so 1 download only... why not this download from the 1 "trusted" source (the vendor, as far as you can trust them).
Firefox should already be compliant (from what I've heard). It will pop up a warning if the known cert is different from a new one (if someone hijacked the domain). The key of course is: how do you guarantee that the original key is correct? by sending it through other means (USB key, mail etc.) and have the user install the cert manually.

Doesn't seem to make sense to me.
On a laptop, phone or tablet, you probably want bluetooth and wifi.
But "enterprise" wifi access points are normally wired in with a controller, and I don't see what the bluetooth would be used for.
What am I missing?
IOT devices with low power BT are used for tracking. Some McDonalds in the Netherlands uses these to serve your order.
The worst part is that this practice has been proven to fail in Spain, Germany, Belgium and France. Big corporations have a proven record on just bailing the entire market instead of complying. https://news.slashdot.org/stor... https://yro.slashdot.org/story... https://tech.slashdot.org/stor... So yeah, apparently that news hasn't reached Brussels yet.

So CD/DVD/BR drives run the other way around as well? Or do they need beefier motors to counterarct the forces they are exposed to?

GDP/PPP is not telling everything.
Country - Population million - Electricity consumption (GWh/yr)
So with about 250 million people more we consume about 800,000 GWh/yr LESS
Figures taken from here.
So yes I'd say the USA is a wasteful economy and should do something about it.
