I agree with you. We don't consider a calculator a genius, or a computer. Neither have the capacity to comprehend complex social situations, or very abstract concepts. Not that I am trying to liken him to a calculator- but within our society we take for granted our own intelligence, and our own abilities because they do come so easily to us.
Just out of curiosity- why would Google consider whether there are Meth labs or no Meth labs in a city when looking to open a branch office? Do you think they are worried all their employees will start doing Meth?
Where can you buy unroasted beans?
If it is possible to actually sell unroasted beans to people, have them roast and grind the beans themselves-- this guy could make some money off this.
Starbucks could be selling people unroasted beans+the roaster+the grinder+the coffee maker. --Control freaks and Coffee aficionados beware!
I think this would be useful for sex offenders, especially pedophiles- where their proximity to a school could alert police- or if they do ever decide to take off with a kid- they would be easy to hunt down.
Also useful in cases where people are placed under house arrest, or limited from leaving the state or country.
I think it's a great idea, and I hope that technology like this is used to track, and control known criminals.
No it's more about theory- that they use IE as a tool to create a monopoly- or windows media player-- Microsoft's entire business model is about creating monopolies- not about innovation, not about being the best- just simply securing power and control. Microsoft has been a criminal organization in the past, and in the EU continues to disrespect the public-trust it was given.
It's why they ship poor products. It's why they are releasing Xbox2 as soon as they can. It's why they lobby governments. It's why they create coalitions. It's why they create DRM.
It is a disgraceful practice, it is both anti-capitalistic, and unethical. Despite the fact they actually fixed a problem they had created, I think it will take a little more for me to garner some semblance of faith in their corporation. I would begin to respect them if they attempted to show that they are willing to work towards creating, and respecting standards that should be available to everyone-- This should be an act of goodwill, and also as a strong desire to see something, such as the internet, progress into something better (and perhaps even profitable to them and others in the future).
It's unfortunate that I had to explain myself in greater detail- but I hope that clarifies things for you.
...but will they let the mac business unit produce IE7 for the mac, how about a real version of media-player?
What about producing any app for linux?
Until then they stay on my evil list.
The Bush administration is still riding on many of Clinton's (pro business almost republican) economic policies.
They have also loosened environmental laws, that will in turn increase pollution by businesses rather than shrink them in the long term.
I don't think the US has any real incentive to join Kyoto- The US has always been a very inward looking country- only 9% of the GDP comes from trade- Do they care what Japan and Canada have to say?... no.
I think it's one more reason people will hate America.

... it looks to me the only solution is wipe Jinan city off the map.
Now where did I leave my nukes....
...Okay I am being serious here- not trying to flame, or troll.
But why do people need cell phones? Admittedly I have owned a couple in my day, and worked for a major cellphone network-- but I still fail to see the real purpose of them.
Typically I make plans, people call me- leave a message on my answering machine and we do something-- do you really need to be on call for 24 hours a day?
I understand business using them, I understand using them for fear of something happening while driving. But they are so unnecessary for most people. Seeing people shopping with them- having their lazy ass spouse on the other end - whether it's a video-store, or grocery store it is almost disturbing.
It seems cell phones don't even know where they belong, you have cell phones with PDA features, the Ngage, photo-cameras, and now mp3-store phones. There seems to be something amiss.
Cell Phones are the ultimate scam- akin to selling air. I would say I am indifferent to cell phone users... I just am questioning their relevancy and looking for others point of view.
I agree... here is a great sentence: Now, burning a DVD was fairly easy using K3b. While burning a DVD, however, the system was fairly slow.
Edited: Burning a DVD was fairly easy using K3b, but the system was fairly slow. These fairly elementary mistakes-- Someone really should rewrite this article.
There goes my retirement plan!!
I was going to have some kids, patent them... then collect royalties off them when they have kids...
That way I could retire with relative ease.
Napster was dead before it was even announced- but because it has a lot of anti-apple investors it can waste money, and continue to fail slowly.
There will always be people who just 'don't get it'-- but it seems that in the case of the iPod/iTunes, people understand it- they recognize it is better. So the Napster/Microsoft model of selling crap products to people who don't know the difference isn't really panning out for them.
...favorite butt-plug.
In actuality it is the name of a bar in British Columbia. XP, aka Whistler, is the name of a mountain, as is Blackcomb... the bar longhorn is in the middle of the two.

Also if you remember Sony recently admitted they made a mistake with their new walkman- and you also have to take into account Japanese culture and the concept of competition are not always thought of in the same respect- especially when Apple dominates the Japanese computer market (and now mp3 market).
fact #1 Apple and Sony have been awfully close for the past few years- with some dialogue between the two CEOs.
fact #2 Apple has signed up to display at E3 this year- but hasn't published any official info on their site.
fact #3 The Mac is somewhat deficient when it comes to gaming when compared to the Windows PC.
So my speculation is that it is possible that Apple intends to build a new Mac aimed at the gaming market that will be compatible and play Sony's PS3 games- Apple in turn could publish games for the PS3.

Everyone that replied- you've been really helpful... I love coffee- and I think I am ready to plunge into the world of roasting my own.

It isn't patched yet.
Did these layoffs happen to have a cycle?... say once a month and lasted for a couple weeks?
Never use the services of the largest text searching company you work for, to bad mouth it.
because everyone wants to work for Google-- it's like someone won the geek lottery then ripped up the ticket.
Don't think- just release it for free.
