If I'm interested in seeing eye dogs, I might not necessarily be blind.
I could be a dog trainer, or an animal lover interested in the topic. I know a lot of people like this.
Being interested in Islam or Buddhism doesn't necessarily make me either thing, and liking rap music doesn't really say anything about my ethnicity. Although, they might have a point on the zip codes.
This one needs the foot icon. The first rule of application security is that obscurity is not security. Also assuming a hacker who's compulsively raiding your software will ever run out of energy is also an incredibly stupid idea. I like the way this one plays out. It's hilarious, but it won't work.
Apple customers are not mainstream customers by any stretch of the imagination. Apple's always been an elitist product for elitists. The reason smart phones have had wide adoption isn't because the devices are valuable, but because they've provided a way for the poor to get online, and effectively closed to digital divide. At least in america. The high end of phones is the high end of phones. But hiking the price of all phones, through trickle down effect will hurt adoption across the board. It's too early to be playing games like this.
I would argue that the only place RSS has ever not really sank in is on the consumer side. Everywhere else, we use it all the time, for a lot of things. We use it for spidering, we use it for mapping, we use it for passing news between one website and another. It's incredibly handy, and part of the plumbing of the web. Yeah, we're using JSON services a lot these days for a lot of things, but not this. Not really. Might even be a fair argument that RSS and it's handy nature actually leads to it being pervasive, or even over-used. It's not dead. It never went anywhere.
Quite the racket you've got going on. But what do you do with the cards after you get the data off of them and blackmail the owners? That's a lot of media. I was thinking, you know, cost per gigabyte on memory cards is so low, it's almost negative. I bet you could do something fun with drive clustering if you had the hardware to do it.
Why is it shocking that you can recover unsecured data from a used memory card again? Especially when you're using recovery software to do the job? This one falls into the "no duh," category.
I think the problem with Agile, is that there's a language barrier with it.
People just don't speak it. So, I've taken the liberty of translating the Agile core principles into plain english so that common developer folk can understand what's being said when people talk about this stuff. I think using these principles, we'll all find ourselves being more productive, and building cogent end to end solutions and rich synergies in the enterprise.
1. Tell the customer what they want to hear. 2. Be disorganized and chaotic. 3. Pretend you’re working. 4. All tasks will either be written by or for idiots. 5. Let the loudest most incompetent people run the show. 6. Determine how many meetings your developers are capable of sitting through without losing their sanity. Require them to sit through twice that number of meetings. 7. Make sure the software works well enough for superficial demos at the end of the sprint is the primary objective. 8. Tell everyone about how hard you’re working. 9. Feign a commitment to excellence. 10. Maximize the amount of things that never get done — super important. 11. Have you ever seen Lord of the Flies? Yeah, like that, only in business casual. 12. Have meetings where you discuss your feelings.
Every "agile" house I've ever worked in has been complete chaos. The process is never implemented fully, the pieces of agile that are the most important are never there, and all it ever ends up doing it leading to more open panel free form meetings that run for hours, which means less development time on any given project. It's a joke. Needs to go.
Are you saying I can take a Swift app designed for macOS or iOS and recompile on Linux with almost no effort? If most of the frameworks are not ported as well it is not really a viable solution. For C# there is Mono and even this is not getting a huge traction beyond a few projects.
Not no effort. Swift is available for Linux. But it's not the same. The standard library is different. No such thing as Cocoa on Linux. This is one language where platform is definitely important.
I'm a technical, educated user. In general, I know how things work.
But I'm more than a little confused about the services Youtube is offering in particular. You've got Youtube Red, Youtube TV, Youtube Premium, and now... youtube music?

No resume should ever be without one of these beauties.
You're welcome.
Grading poorly written term papers and essays isn't my job.
Let me know when there's something to take seriously.
The image it invoked in my head of astronauts either being used as rocket fuel, or some kind of poop based fuel, or something.
I know the actual explanation was more realistic, but the former was more fun.

Time will tell.
A chip like that only accounts for losing two, maybe three humanity points. So they're all good. Now pacemakers on the other hand...

No, the moon is mine, titled to me by my great gran-pappy, and I'll go to space war with anyone who leaves a slashdot comment to the contrary.

There are a lot of things I would infer about a person with the ownership of an iphone. Wealth is not necessarily one of them.
Firefox needed to die a decade ago.
Google blocking it is probably the only humane way to go.
I like the political espionage angle.
How devious.

Okay, dude, seriously, if you're this upset about a freaking plug, take a xanax. Everything looks better after a xanax.
You need six of them!!!!
Phishing by means of slashdot post.
Fascinating.
Facebook is wasting too much of my time with nonsense from groups I never subbed to in my feed anyway.
Totally cool with this.
I hope they all do it.

Really is the end of an era. I remember Stumble well.
Though, honestly, I'm a little surprised it lasted this long.

Am I crazy?
Google actually has competition, in pretty much anything it does.
The cable industry doesn't, and it shows. Why hasn't Comcast been investigated?
