For unite, his dynamic test included writing to a local file. For apache, he wrote to a database, which in the end writes to a file. That doesn't give a comparison between web servers. It shows that file IO for unite is about half the speed of using apache+php with a database. Had his apache+php test written to a local file, then it would a much better comparison.
That makes as much sense as buying a car and then being forced to go out and buy a steering wheel. The car will drive without the steering wheel, but you won't get to where you want to go. Most people buy computers so they can use the internet. Requiring this extra cost and step is a hurdle without a purpose or benefit, except letting the EU continue their attempt to help subsidize their budgets at the expense of a company.
If operating systems are not allowed to ship with a browser, then that is fine. It just needs to be enforced for every OS.
"You can go all the way to the store, but you can't have an Internet Browser on your USB stick?"
They were able to buy a computer, but why can't they just code their own Internet Browser?
My argument makes more sense than yours because all computers come with the tools to write a browser, but they all do not come with a USB stick. Having the skills to shop at a store in no way implies that a typical user would know to purchase a USB drive and then find a way of installing a browser on to it.
I'm not sure if you've walked through the various parts of manhattan, but most of it is dense enough that falling objects are more likely to impact with a building. If you're in the room or floor of a building that gets hit, then you're probably just as dead as if you were hit on the street. If you're higher up than the impact and the elevators and stairs are out of commission from the impact, then you can potentially die without getting directly hit. I'd take my chances on the street where I would have to be actually hit by failing debris.
A plane is being escorted by F-16s. And this causes hundreds of people to flee for their lives by making a mad dash out of their building? There's being careful, then there's being an overly paranoid idiot. I'm pretty sure that if the jets are there, you'd be safer *in a building* rather than where all the explodey shrapnel can get to you.
A low flying 747 flying low near manhattan being pursued by F-16s. Definitely no reason to be alarmed! After all, if they fired missiles at the potentially hijacked plane it would explode completely like in the movies. There definitely wouldn't be any large, flaming fragments of the plane to crash in to buildings, potentially trapping those inside. You're right, definitely much safer in buildings.
There is a big difference between making weapons and selling them to some one who committed genocide. A weapon is a tool with no moral objectives. For example, a gun is a weapon that can either be used to murder innocent people or save a woman from being raped.
The software developers on these systems are probably losing more sleep worrying that an error will prevent it from doing its job.
Your math failed to include the businesses, which generally require more power than residential units. To handle the cloudy days, They will tie in to the state's grid. There are very few instances where a city is isolated from the rest of the power grid. When the sun shines, they will provide for themselves and sell the extra power to the state's grid. At night or when it's cloudy, they will buy power from the state's grid. State grid being the other power companies in the area that are all interconnected.
I've never worked at a company that chose to suffer through upgrading between versions of windows. Clean install with a scripted data migration has been the preferred route. It takes slightly longer, but you end up with less cruft on the system.
The effect of drug patents is to prevent competition to keep their overinflated prices. When the patent is about to expire, they change the drug slightly and get a new patent for the "new" derivative drug. They keep the name recognition for the drug, which maintains their sales. The effectiveness of the new version of the drug is usually not any better.
Replace with place holder content and then delete. In many systems, deleting is a non-destructive action that just changes the status flag on the record. Replacing content is more likely to destroy the previous version.
...aside from getting slapped with fines in several continents for being a monopoly?
Your comment shows that you either did not understand the article or are trolling by taking that quote out of context.
That testimony shows that the government deems fewer versions to be more monopolistic. We can all "thank" the US and EU for the multiple versions. Can't really blame Microsoft for not wanting to get hit with the same fines with ever windows release.
Common sense is a lot better than DRM. Glad to see that at least some companies are willing to spend a few hours to identify reasons why people pirate games and think of simple solutions.
Or, do. I would LOVE if every service provider gave me a place to voice my opinion on how they can improve their service without me having to have the expertise to actually execute the idea.
Most companies have customer support forums, email address and phone numbers. They have been receiving "opinions" on how they should do their job for a long time.
Or a better fix is for people to wait for an official posting from Microsoft. I would hate to see people void warranty or do more damage for a potential fix.
I fully agree with privacy. I can afford a lawyer to keep me out of jail while I fight to maintain my privacy. I was just stating that many cannot afford it and I think that those who already bear the burden of the sex offender label may not be able to fight the injustice.
I think a sex offender would have a much harder time in jail than anyone else. I'm sure they'll get beaten to within an inch of their lives frequently....for the sake of the children.
Your state could pass a law stating that anyone working in a job where they interact with non-citizens must provide all of their online passwords. Failure to do so would result in fines and/or jail time.
It may be a stupid law, but many cannot afford a good enough lawyer. It's real easy to say what others should do, but many convicted sex offenders are unable to find a job with a decent salary. Despite paying their debt, society has handicapped them from every being a "normal" citizen.

Regardless of facts being left out, the company is still suing itself, which is arguably stupid.
I finally have a reason to wipe the dust off my sidewinder 2!
One step closer to not having hormonally imbalanced pregnant women...
My wife and I really wish the human reproductive cycle involved external incubation. I'd create a device to post to twitter whenever the baby kicks.

Laziness has a price and you should be reimbursed for the convenience and (most likely) extra support.

If the DA fails to bring charges against the girls, would that open him up to a defamation lawsuit for tarnishing their image for so long?
Blocking a number doesn't work since that person could easily use another phone, or use spoofcard.
I find it interesting that you are strongly defending abusers.
