Apple has their own ads solution as well. In fact they developed it after they figured out someone else was making money with apps than they were. The horror!
Any public file sharing system is liable to be abused period. This includes version control systems. It is no excuse for yanking the service. FWIW I have never seen people abuse either of those services for file serving.
Were it not for Android Google would risk losing market share in their existing search engine and ads markets as Apple and other companies served as a gatekeeper to the Internet. So yeah the investment makes sense. They did pay an outrageous amount of cash to buy Motorola but then again other companies have spent more cash on software acquisitions of even more dubious value.
Because it is a crap policy. A lot of people will want binaries or packages rather than download source code. Many people do not even have a versioning system installed or will want to download the latest stable source code rather than muck around with an unstable internal development milestone.
Actually they changed their e-mail interface recently. It seems to have lost some features however. I particularly liked the old feature where you could have more than one alias for the same account : helped to reduce spam. I haven't seen this feature elsewhere. At one time I used Yahoo as my primary e-mail account. I only stopped using it because of the e-mail quota limits were much lower than gmail back then. I used to backup my e-mail every month but with gmail I have grown too lazy to do it raising the barrier to changing e-mail providers.
Sometimes I wonder how Cisco even has a business today. The powers that be must be getting nervous with all the recent trashtalk against Huawei and the like.
Google and IBM sure. Those are clearly successful companies which produce viable goods and services. But IBM does not handle its aquisitions particularly well either.
That clearly explains the success of Linux kernel development with its centralized location and excellent eye to eye developer contract vias a vias the Microsoft NT kernel development team. Nope. Actually it doesn't.
Actually I thought they had a chance of recovery ever since I heard they planned to adquire NeXT. Their major problem was their POS obsolete OS. Then when Steve Jobs pulled the plug on Mac clones and the first iMac came out, ridiculous as it looked back then, I thought they had pretty much left the danger zone. Of course I could never predict the level of success they eventually attained with their iPod and iPhone back then. However their iPhone clearly couldn't have happened without their NeXT aquisition as it uses that same base to run all the software. The fact that Apple got their hands on an easily portable operating system was what enabled their moves to x86 and ARM for their devices in such a quick succession. Had they remained stuck using PowerPC they probably wouldn't have got to their present point.
The iPod is a different beast considering the OS it ran was totally unrelated with MacOS X.
The bring your own computer bit is often done by people doing contracted work. Of course you still need a chair and air conditioning. The free parking depends on how good the local public transportation network is really. Or maybe you live next to where the job is and you don't need free parking at all.
Here in Europe things like lunch stipends are filed separately than the rest of your paycheck so they do not get taxed at all up to a certain limit per day.
Sort of surprised they do not do the same in the US.
I actually had someone who wanted me to develop an AutoCAD replacement and weren't even willing to pay for two developers for two years to get something out. Then I mentioned that AutoCAD had been developed in decades by dozens of developers. Well so much for that talk.
Yeah and then NCR grew irrelevant while SGI went bankrupt.

Is it too much to consider that if that person could be found on Facebook you most likely wouldn't bother going to the police at all?

True. But Google Drive is not exactly known for easy to read URLs.

Its called Wikipedia dude.

Back in 1996 there wasn't Altavista but there were other search engines like Lycos (crap) and Hotbot (actually quite good).

If she was a guy she would probably be called a douche rather than a bozo.

Oh and walking and a change of scenery are often a good thing rather than the opposite.
I don't drink coffee (prefer tea) and my snacks are actual chocolate bars.

FWIW plumbing pipes are increasingly made of PVC plastic.
Do you even have a vague idea of how many people die from the flu in a regular year?
With that many trees near to the house there is little wonder that the fire burned it all down.
Yeah. Just like Mario and Luigi.
It's either black or grey. Or white. Probably black.
You can purchase MP3 legally from Amazon. CD ripping (aka format shifting) has always been legal.
