Amnesty International isn't exactly trustworthy. They pretty much have sided with Kashmiri terrorists and against the Hindu minority civilians in Kashmir. If they are worried, then I would hold that Wikileaks is doing a good job of putting out information Amnesty International would rather ignore.
Or there is some other form of control preventing competition, like the inability of a non Apple provider to provide an itunes content store alternative?
Copyright is currently life + 52 years for literary works in India. The change is only for photography, and will probably be applied to everything with no exceptions.
OTOH, the Polyglot developer with 2 years of LISP, two years of Java and two years of Ruby will do the same thing with far lesser code. Especially if Java is not the right language for the task.
Most Java developers tend not to know Design Patterns outside the Java context. Functional programming has it's own patterns, and those are very useful in the right context.
You can't not go "cheapo" in India. There is absolutely no quality there, regardless of how much you are paying.
Bull. There's a bunch of quality people in India.
We just don't work for the companies which get your outsourcing contracts. They aren't interesting to work at. We also aren't cheaper by much (only half).
That's ok. Not even the Hindus hyperventilate over Hindu fundamentalism. That is a political phenomenon in response to monotheistic religions trying to claim that any civil rules violate their freedom of religion.
Slashdot Mirror
They read the book and made a tongue-in-cheek reference to it.
You missed the joke :)
Unless LINQ expresses your intent better, and in the process renders the formal looping construct redundant.
If the migration effort is exactly the same, why would you not want to upgrade to the bigger number directly?
But will the value of the compromised information be limited to $10000 as it is today, or will the damages a few years later be bigger?
I think we would. The Americans can have the DDoSers *after* they have served their indian jail sentences.
The probability of a successful attack tends to 1 given sufficient time.
Put comments in your commit messages. That way the comments never need to be updated, and they can be removed from the source itself.
Which Linux distribution doesn't ship with ImageMagick? RedHat, Debian, Fedora, Ubuntu all ship with it.
Twitter is IRC over HTTP, done wrong.
Facebook? Social networks predate Facebook, even online.
Wave was a nice idea, implemented badly. But it sure was innovative in what it tried to accomplish.
The killer for wave was the limited userbase and the sucky performance.
Which one of your examples is radically innovative?

I recommend reading Charles Stross' blogposts on Ebooks and the publishing industry.

I take no stand on the issue, Charles does and he backs up his claims with numbers.
Mumbai doesn't either. Mumbai's transit has other problems, but lack of use isn't one of those.
88% of the population uses transit (buses and trains). That's about 18M people. Mass transit works very well if you keep provisioning for it, and grow along transit lines.
It doesn't work well in rural areas, but even there you can have fairly reliable public transit without the need for cars.
Cars don't scale. Mass transit scales better.
Yes. However, we cannot prove that such is the case.
"Less coffee with sugar" reads to me as more sugarless coffee.
Or there is some other form of control preventing competition, like the inability of a non Apple provider to provide an itunes content store alternative?
So Stephen Hawking thinks that this would be an OCP for the human race? That would depend on whether we met the Culture or some other grouping.
Humans have learnt to fight quite well, and we aren't likely to let some random alien species win. It might take some time to win though.

$random_blog_guy merely happens to be a lead CentOS 5 developer. *grin*

IPMI and remote power management should give really long arms.

No thanks. Hygiene issues.

Specifically, the biggest triggers on this phenomenon were:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Khilafat_movement
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shah_Bano_case
with the actions of the Muslim league http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muslim_League being huge drivers.
