We are talking people here who dedicate 14 hours a day towards studies and work, and can take such self-destructive workloads better than women on account of biological/physical handicap over women.
I don't know what you're talking about, at my university, there were women who took 21 credits of math classes in one semester. There aren't many men who could do that (of course, some can....the ability to work hard is unrelated to gender).
You respond with, "feel free to hire a team of programmers to fix that. you have the source code.:"
Honestly, you have to act like Linus if you run an OSS project.
Somehow I think Linus would have some......different words.....
Hacking like this is just going to get worse and worse until people make security a priority. Right now it's not a high for people, as Linux recently pointed out.
Not long ago someone was trying to convince me that git is an acceptable backup for your code, because it's distributed, so you don't need any other backups.
This story is another reminder that Git is not a backup. (As the older saying went, "RAID is not backup"). Mirroring is not a backup either, for similar reasons.
More knowledgeable people than you have looked at the problem and disagree. Thus you would be wise to at least look at their arguments. As for OPEC.......OPEC is not as powerful or as united as they once were. Furthermore, SA has said that with green technologies and electric cars, they don't expect the price of oil to stay high for long, and they plan to drill as much out of the ground as fast as they can while they can still sell it.
I'd like to see a real-world test of the feasibility of a thorium reactor. It produces electricity and completely eliminates any concern about weapons-grade fissile material.
The difference, of course, is that adding cores and 64-bit are upgrades, they make your phone/computer better.
Using a VM will slow things down, and is essentially a failure on the part of the OS designers, added in a way to provide backwards compatibility (like in OS/360) or as a way to provide security that should be in the OS but is not. On a server, VMs are often used as a way to prevent different services from conflicting with each other, or as a way to bundle them up so they can be easily transferred from one physical box to another, but that doesn't really apply on a phone.
What you call 'custom data structure' might as well be a 'domain model'.
Maybe.....when I think of a domain model, I think of a higher level design, that isn't concerned with the lower level implementation details. That is, the domain model won't particularly care if you use a linked list or an array list as long as it is sufficiently performant.
(And at that time most data structures we now have in libraries where already existans and taught in schools/universities)
Donald Knuth said that when he wrote The Art of Computer Programming, programmers were amazed that they could write their own linked lists. The idea had never occurred to them (because they were provided by libraries from the computer manufacturers). That was a long time ago, and yet there was still need for custom data structures, just as there is today.
Because of the Prisoner's dilemma. This is basic game theory, and not some astounding revelation.
If you want to make an argument based on "basic game theory" you need to show that it applies in this situation, and that government regulators would do a better job allocating resources overall.
Based on your comment, you haven't thought about this situation deeply, and are only capable of facile responses on the topic.
as for AIDS, the current drugs are very high profit and keep the patient hooked for a very very long time. Actually curing the disease would be cutting their profits.
The clear evidence against your point here is that companies are paying a lot to cure AIDS. An explanation would be that although it might cut profits for the industry overall, it would also give huge profits to the company that actually found a cure.

And it's not looking like the next presidential election will be much better.
But the Netanyahu administration is putting that all at risk by closely aligning with only the right wing of the Republican Party.
How is Netanyahu aligning closely with only the right wing of the Republican Party? Serious question.
This seems extremely petty, though.
It is.
All the same, you'd kind of hope that a communications director would have a little sense of what he should post on the internet.
I fail to see how this is different from many of the comments made by US Republicans about the Obama administration.
Because the Obama administration complained to the Israeli government that they'd been insulted. The Israeli government felt like they should respond.

I've never exactly gotten this. Why does anyone who is giving something away particularly care if someone who is getting it for free uses it or not?
Most people I've talked to who write open source code want their code to be used by people. That is fine.
Other people, like Andrew Tridgell, just like making a great project. I really admire those people.
As a backup system, git works better than dropbox.
yes lol, absolutely

I'm kind of ok without the Halo or CoD crowd.....it makes the community better when aim-assist isn't needed.
Zero chance.

There are several ongoing projects.
Isn't that what the $700 billion stimulus was for?
Oil prices still have room to fall for various reasons. We could very well be looking at $20 a barrel oil soon.
The issue here is that these cars won't know even how to get off the god damn parking lot without GPS and mappings
That's a good example

What about TI OMAP? There were quite a few phones with that chipset last time I checked (a year and a half ago).

Yet somehow, everyone who bought an Android phone is using google's JVM. Guess what the VM in JVM stands for?
That's great, so if you throw that in another VM, it would be a VM running in a VM.
Google needs to have a hypervisor, VMs, and have all this work seamlessly for Joe Sixpack. Virtualization takes the right hardware to pull off.
That's the first time I've ever heard anyone ask for VMs running on a phone.
Maybe if you were to pay me for my time, I can educate you on the subject.
Give me an address and I'll send you a check.
I already owe you one, after all, for you comedian skills. Your response there gave me a good laugh.
