The average person will use the store, but you can still let others run their own code on their own devices. Note the lack of botnets made of android phones.
Yes, it does make them a terribly bad idea. It means you need to move the launcher upright out to the pad, it means you can't launch on a cool Florida morning and they cost a god damn fortune. Plus they are dangerous as hell. SRBs are the second worst thing about the shuttle. That prize goes to the idea to put the humans any place but the top of the stack.
They are not returning them, they are just not extending contracts. That means they have to wait until it ends as they would rather not pay the early termination fee.

Why does this suddenly matter? At some point there is some part of the OS I did not create yes. Welcome to 2011.
You review the code in your Windows desktop OS?
Face it, it is far more likely that you will get some infection on your windows desktop then the repositories I use will be poisoned.
Try 2010.
Heck, between RIM switching to something based on QNX, iPhone, Android and webOS the only one not running a grown up OS is WP7.
There is also no linux version.
Android does not even need that. Just check one box and install any apk you want.
I like how he mentioned computer geeks and academics, but not Google, Red Hat, IBM or hundreds of other examples of open source in mainstream life.
Like most of the WSJ this article is full of FUD and written to agree with their readers pre-conceived notions.

Restrictions and license fees will never weed out bad coders, the worst software I have ever seen has been some of the most expensive.
That is patently false. All you have to do is check the box labeled allow unsigned software.
Rooting software? I flashed a new image right on my phone. Your spewing FUD.
Not if you buy a good one dumbass. Heck, mine is not even running a vendor or carrier built OS.

I love the doublethink there; "and they will be focusing on homebrew as well as stronger protection of WP7 developer intellectual property."
It's one or the other kids. They were bought off.
Then you also have the problems of both.
Either way, I meant these SRBs suck, not that all solid rockets suck.
So how much did they get for this?
HAHA, good joke.
If you suddenly have more money, you don't hire more workers. You pocket that money as profit. This is why you don't run a business.
Maybe because of the fallout and the crap flying everywhere?

I know that, but I want to spend one billion of that ten on Falcon XX. Which is a super heavy lifter.
Sure do. He can also pay for any minutes he "ruins" by using them. See how that works?
No, you can blame the execs who signed those. Just because they asked for it does not mean you have to give it to them.
Here is a interesting design they did not consider; Don't use the fucking SRBs, they suck.
Sounds more like corporate welfare then science to me.
Let's just ask Elon what a Falcon XX will cost instead.
Workers should come before investors. If you can't stand to lose it don't gamble with it.
No, I never said that. I only mentioned as a reason why those 50% might be on the dole.
So the workers who do the actual work, under a contract management freely signed are the parasites?
Not the execs who walk away with golden parachutes after losing market share and billions?
WTF is wrong with you?
We tried that contractor alternative with NASA, take a look at how that turned out.
