I think that Sodium Chloride (NaCl) has killed more people over the last 20 years in America than Sodium Hydroxide (NaOH). (I hate working with lye, mostly because my instructor doesn't give us gloves.)

They forgot the CueCat and New Coke! I think both are great examples of products that had a very different impact than that intended. New Coke actually made consumers more interested in old Coke and the CueCat spawned a large "after market" community that still exists long after the laser scanner's demise.
The main message in this book seems to be "Don't piss of your fans!" While some would argue that this is common sense, the provided examples prove otherwise. People do not want to feel like they are supporting a faceless corporation, so they rebel when their favorite product turns and tries to control them.
I guess there are similarities between garbage men and EMTs, though Dilbert's garbage man is smarter than most EMTs. Anyway, I am a rookie volunteer part timer. I was talking about playing the game while on the job. Unless you are in some large cities (Philadelphia quickly comes to mind) most of an EMT's shift is spent just waiting for a call. It is a great way for college students to get some studying done. No distractions for hours on end and you can't leave to go to a party.
Also, I do not get to do the fun things that are in the game. A basic level ambulance only carries scalpels for cutting the cord in childbirth and I'm not (yet) allowed to start IVs. At least let me pretend that I'm a busy doctor while being lazy/on call!
In GP I established that Un = !. Therefore your assertion that the story is !Un&&real means that it is real and it is not false. Although I thought that || was or and that only xor implies mutual exclusivity.
As talented as most ham radio operators are, I do not think that the mass media would respect that technology enough to run stories based on it. And what "machinations" would the USAF be pulling without the benefit of GPS to guide them? Localized jamming is not an unheard of concept in military operations and it would stop leaking radio reports.
I don't know about PHP, but Java's JFileChooser makes it easy to select which filetypes are permitted for upload. Users do not even see non-supported files in the chooser. I think that most security threats are caused at least in part by laziness on someone's part.
Months ago (late last year) I asked Senator Allen (R, Va) what he thought of Yahoo's aiding the chinese government in their campaign of oppression. He said that he had not heard anything about it but that he would find out more and that the idea was very distressing. I figured that he was only paying lip service. When the news broke in more traditional media, however, congress took notice. It has nothing to do with my question but it is refreshing to see our elected officials actually taking interest in tech companies doing bad things.
He was ultimately popular enough that he could have released some indie music open source without regard for license if he had wanted to push his philosophy.
Armchair socialists will rant and rave about property rights being a tool of oppression until they are robbed and go running to the police. Speech and action are different things.
There is a reason that this technology has not been adapted years ago for airport use. It is not practical to deploy at every checkpoint in the world. TFA isn't nearly as bullish on the potential of the technology: "One big reason is that it is not easy to integrate the explosive-detecting machines, some of which can cost $250,000, into existing security checkpoints. Because each briefcase, purse or other carry-on bag has to be put in a special drawer for analysis, using the detectors could significantly bog down passenger screening. [...] the technology still produces a relatively high number of false alarms."
Chemistry is capeable of some fascinating things. Two extremely dangerous and deadly chemicals combine to make a tasty food additive (salt). Still, I am not aware of any liquid explosives that are completely invisible to explosive detection in component form.
I am aware of that which is why I have a library card with the Library of Congress. There are times, however, when you need to use a specific fact and citing an encyclopedia makes sense. The years that major treaties are enacted, for example.
I would love it if they made a Palm version of the game. Then doctors could spend their breaks getting virtual revenge on those really annoying patients.
"Now Miss Sanders, could you please tell the court what happened." "Well, the ambulance crashed into my car and started on fire. As I turned to run away the driver lept from the vehicle with a baseball bat and struck me until the money from my purse began glowing green and levitating near me. He then stood over me, shouted 'Live damnit!' and I was fine."
He can navigate perfectly well without GPS, thus why he passed his tests with flying colors (again with the puns, what's wrong with me today). It is just one more thing to have to think about while controlling several different flight systems at once. Military practical testing is incredibly difficult. My friend and his helo both survived their tour in Iraq so I would hardly call him a baby.
You can teach them all you know but they probably will not listen. Rather than implement this system, it seems cheaper and easier for parents to brown bag their child's lunch. I currently intern in a large pharmaceutical company and I still bring my own lunch sometimes to save money. If children are going to beg, barter, and steal for sweets, you cannot stop them. But you can at least work with them to buy healthier food that they want to eat and make their lunch for them.
This is good to hear, but as always implementation is everything. It will be interesting to watch as their service reps grapple with an entirely new system. We all know how great telephone service is for Windows.
"Ok, now open the control panel." "What control panel?" "Click Start, then click control panel." "Start? What Start?"
I disagree. By trying to make a disc work in a more difficult enviroment the tester is assuring that his solution works as well as possible in the worst enviroment.
Here is an overdone genre: Law and Order. I used to be a huge fan back when it was mostly the original cast.
I do not understand the hatred directed toward Fox News. It is not that different from the rest of the news networks if you actually watch the news segments. Hanity and Colmbes is not designed to be balanced news, it is an opinion show.
I do not think that reality shows have quite the polish that you suggest. I believe that the producers give the carefully selected actors notes on how to act but they carry them out as they see fit.
Leno and Conan are funnier than Stewart. The latter seems much more eager to push his political agenda. Colbert, on the other hand, primarily saterizes conservatives in such a way that even I find amusing as a Republican. Stewart is brash and insulting while Colbert is more subtle and inteligent. Stewart never could have given the press club speech that added so much to Colbert's fame.
I hope that the bundling of the two programs is not done in such a way that tarnishes Firefox's image. If they try to sneak it on people's computers the way that some programs do with Yahoo! Toolbar people will first hear the name "Firefox" when they suddenly find a new program on their desktop.

I really hope that no one has taped over these films with their "home movies."

Come on now, I'm sure most /.ers have studyed De Morgans Laws. !(!real) == real. This story is real!
