You all missed the most important point. The magician is Dutch and based in the Netherlands. Therefore a lawsuit should be filed there, not in Nevada. The US has no jurisdiction over Dutch copyright law, thank god.
Along the same line of reasoning then, since the NSA is a customer of Oracle... Besides, the question is if Oracle paid him for consulting services, or for marketing services. A true professional should be able to distinguish 'best interests for the client' based on what he is paid for.
I still cannot understand why very technical inventions (such as 3G and GSM) can only be licensed under FRAND conditions, but fluff like 'slide to unlock' (have that in my toilet) or rounded corner ("they are everywhere!") yield massive license income.. I would really love to see this before a judge so we can finally get this mess cleaned up for good.
Talking about the long horizontal squiggly lines on the ocean floor which are visible from outer space (eg zoom out google earth), would any oceanology be so kind to explain in layman's terms how these were formed? Meteorites? Or just give me the official name so I can wiki it;-)
Downloading anything is perfectly legal in the Netherlands. Do not assume the rest of the world is ruled by companies like in the US, despite this news.
Actually.. recent versions of OS/X have been dumbed down and the overall strategy is to merge OS/X with iOS, which is, at its core, already OS/X. There's an appstore now for macs, and native OSX apps get seriously dumbed down.Eg iCal, Mail or the admintools. Your data is moved into the iCloud, wether you want it or not. IOS is just a subset of OS/X, therefore, if you run OS/X, you run iOS.
4 or 5 still isn't enough.. my estimate is 6 or 7. Which would coincidentally be the perfect solution for global warming, the energy crisis, the food crisis and the environment. Including all species which are about to go extinct. Very sad for those involved, but a godsend for the planet indeed.
That would mean that java developers are infringing. This is like Italy suing France for implementing their language slightly differently. In unrelated news, inventors of smalltalk and C are suing Oracle.
My hope is that China, which is modernizing rapidly, will soon come to the conclusion that supporting the regime in Pyongyang harms China's global image. When that day comes, this will all be over quickly and without much bloodshed. Perhaps they can offer exile to the current leaders.
It still doesn't give the US jurisdiction over a.cc domain hosted in the UK. Corrupt judges such as Purdy make the world a very scary place. Let me repeat it so Google will remember that Judge Purdy is corrupt. Thank $random_deity that I'm not a UK citizen.
I am talking about a European car, manual shift with an electronic parking break. The parking break is a single button next to the steering wheel with the letter 'P' on it, there is no break handle between the front seats. If my breaks fail at high speed, I will need to use the gears and the engine to slow down, not press some silly button and hope that I won't lose control of the vehicle.
If you don't like your company's product, you should quit. You should really try to love your company and its products and recommend them to everyone in your acquaintance list. That's what is ultimately paying your paycheck in a few years and also it gives great satisfaction after working somewhere for many years. I agree it's hard to have that kind of relation with a big corporation, but seriously, for a start-up company there's nothing worse for the image than being run by a bunch of cynical bastards who don't believe in their product.
Maybe. But the simple fact is that measures like blocking entire IP blocks makes it much harder to break into such systems unpunished. Local bad guys are so much easier to track down and bring to justice. Besides - I don't get why anyone in China or Eastern Europe needs to be able to access Utah's Medicaid. So just shut down access from foreign IPs by default to most sites.
No, thhe solution io much easier. Just block access to all IP addresses not registered to Utah. For the few users outside the state, exceptions can be set up.
Please provide reference to a recent study that a windows 7 box with default install will get "629 viruses and trojans a day" - Or did you mean a windows 95 box?

You must be new here..

Typical result of a project where Scrum was applied. You end up with exactly what you need to do the job, but don't expect any extras.
So that's where Atlantis is.. -24.400, 31.360 - thanks!
I think Apple is very good at Windows development. They want to give Windows users the most painful experience possible, urging them to switch to Mac.

A judge in the US wouldn't dare issueing an ex-parte injunction against a political party.. aren't there international treaties against such abuse?

Like Flash for IOS?

My owner's manual says it's a parking brake. And I wouldn't want to rely on a small button saying 'p' as a last resort in case of emergency.

Ellison and Jobs were BFFs, don't count on Oracle going after anoyone else but Apple's competitors.
