That was a long-standing bug in Google Drive which finally got fixed. I downloaded a newer version a few months ago for a client whose drawings, like yours, were remaining locked while they were being edited.
A full year before his election I was reading a fresh new screed against Trump on boingboingevery day and realized... "He's going to win isn't he?" Because he's captured mindshare. His name is out there like a drumbeat, every day. The media are utterly obsessed with him, and he is unavoidable and unforgettable. And why is that? Because he's great entertainment for the masses.
That is precisely the point. This is for HR to be able to click boxes for what they want and have a list of people with the desired skills and traits fall out the bottom. It will work as simply as making a query against the census.
Just like statistics, it will never tell the whole story. The fact that real-life human experience has very little to do with the resume is irrelevant. This is one step in the silent march toward the goal of having every aspect of every citizen quantified or modeled in some way. Every economic aspect, that is; the ways they are most likely to generate financial benefit or most likely to be persuaded to consume goods.
We're all free to ignore the gibbering angry rages which are out of proportion to the injury caused by excessive line spacing, bloated text boxes, trendy Metro-esque lead article presentation, and a dozen other changes, none of which I like either.
I'll still throw my lot in with the mob and say that if I can't comfortably read the site including comments on any device, with or without Javascript enabled, then it may be thrown off my multiple-visits-daily list (5-10x). I'm a longtime and loyal reader who values what Slashdot is and what it isn't. It's management's decision whether they want the existing crowd, the bread-and-butter, the daily eyeballs of a generation, or if they want to spiff the place up and go after a new market. I hope they try to make it palatable for both.
BTW, Dice, even those of us who rarely post hate being called an "audience." These folks, even the rabble, are my crowd.
Your watchers want to know whether you are watching them, to twist a phrase.
"Microsoft believes the key differentiator between Xbox as a TV platform and the sea of failed competitors will be its voice and motion search tool. Utilizing the Kinect attachment, users will be able to be identified by number and state of activity, providing valuable feedback to the content providers and their customers, the advertisers." Fixed that for you.
Bonus if they build profiles of individuals and estimate ages by correlating with easily available databases and public records. Extra bonus if Microsoft listens to all other programming being played in the room and identifies it audibly.
Last year I visited a large corporation to see a demo of their latest web-enabled product. Their field engineers had to have Windows and IE6 on their laptops to tap into the company servers, but to demo their standards-compliant web app they all had to have Firefox as well. Open Source gets the work done, it's future-proof, and hopefully this is only the first shocking example of this bureaucracy-laden company's shift away from proprietary to open. (Wouldn't count on it... their market-capturing strategies are a lot like Microsoft's in some respects. You never know, though...)
Do nothing. Given enough time, some industrious hacker will find all the data for you.
I think the OP may be hoping for that, since they're posting on Slashdot and have disclosed the identity of the university just as cleverly as any redacted PDF would.
Will future versions be able to read what he saved? And even if they could will it render the same?
That's why I keep my old Word 6.0 stashed in a directory. Well, that and it loads 10 times faster than OpenOffice so it's perfect for dashing off a decent looking note or sign. I never bother to install it... just drag it from one Windows box to the next.
Now if I could just find the 6.0c upgrade to squash those last couple of bugs, why, I'd be up to date...
Perhaps the 1207th connection is the frame itself, grounded. Extra shielding would be a benefit to system builders, or at any rate might make the FCC happy.
If this flaw carries through to the release version, it is the same as Microsoft ceding the whole high-end workstation space to Linux and Sun. It would be an admission that they will never recapture the Hollywood production line. It will encourage all other heavy 3D users to seriously rethink their OS choice, and nudge their suppliers - the ISVs and software producers - to hustle over to where the grass is greener and the standards open.
Funny you should mention that... I just noticed not one but two of these things offered a week or two back at one of the classified ad sites for that sort of thing. They are both in the UK.
"The manager isn't part of the team; he can't be. He has to have a bigger perspective than the team has, he answers to other people, and he has to be able to discipline. The sheep dog may spend a lot of time with the sheep, but he never becomes part of the flock; his real focus is pleasing the shepherd." That's my wife speaking. (She learned this in retail, not in our house, in case you were wondering.)
I use the CF card in my camera. I've got OpenOffice.org on it for easy FOSS evangelism. Just make sure the camera you get emulates a USB drive (most do, although some have alternate modes).
Or CF cards and a $5 reader from your local store.
Oh my children... you have much to learn... Prior to 1985, lots of arcades had buttons on the left and right side of the joystick.
Then the NES came out, millions bought it, and the buttons were on the right, because that's what the Japanese in general (and Nintendo in particular) decided was right.
Combine that with the ever-increasing popularity of 2 player games, limited space on the control panels of most arcade cabinets, and the rise of conversion kits, which caused arcades to take the old dual-side-button cabinets out of service and replace them with two player games, and there you have the one-sided conclusion.
Speaking of kits, Street Fighter II was the most crucial of those, and it had 6 fighting move buttons per player. Imagine the same duplicated for left and right hand:
2 players x 12 buttons + 2 joysticks + 2 start buttons - 28 holes in the control panel, which the players proceeed to beat on until it falls apart because there isn't enough wood left to keep it together. Not to mention the labor and hassle to drill and wire this panel.
So it is that joystick-on-the-left became standard.
... and if you want that big honkin' LED display look, here are some 5 inch tall LED digits that will almost duplicate the classic Model H light bulb scoring display without the hassle.
>>If we take consulting, services, and support off the table as an option for high-growth revenue generation (the only thing VCs care about)
As if high growth, and the concentration of wealth to those that drive it, were worthwhile goals for all human endeavours.

Efficient. Soulless. Dehumanizing.

Already been done.

Stellarium for star charts and constellations. Windows, Mac, Linux versions. Highly recommended.

Judging by the size of XP, it was written in 15 years.
Oh, wait...
This is good news!

"The Nuts and Volts of News for Nerds." ...? Is that a pseudo-cross-sponsorship thing, or an impending takeover?

Ubuntu has a list of favorite bounties...too modest for rent and ramen.
Don't you suppose getting a fly to sit still and wait would be more beneficial?
If you can do something with .rm ... consider Engines of our Ingenuity to fill out the first (or last) minutes of a thoughtful commute.
Bless you.
