Doesn't matter. If the source code is evidence of criminal activity, you have every right to present it as evidence when you report said activity to the authorities. Get it? If your boss is engaged in criminal activities, your knowledge of this does not constitute a trade secret. You have every right to reveal this, as well as any evidence.
Your courts suck. Not just yours, but also the ones in my country. And in any country. because there is no way in hell a judge can make a reasonable decision on how to handle the breakup of a family when he is required by law to keep the husband and wife on the other side of the bench for impartiality's sake. I know. I was a child whose custody was mishandled by a judge. It resulted in me being molested until I made a credible threat on my guardian's life. But I'm not bitter at the judge (much). He didn't know. He couldn't know. The state cannot run a family. And family that winds up in the state's hands is going to suffer.

If you use SSH tunneling, the government takes note of it. Then, one day when they feel like it, they break down your doors, take your hard drive and peek in the cache. So naturally, most Chinese don't try it. For SSH tunneling to be safe, everyone has to use it.
Many a true word is said in jest. Before the automobile, children could run off to join the circus, but abductions were rare because carriages were slower than mounted posses, easily tracked, and carrying someone against his will on horseback was next to impossible. That's a major reason why the Lindbergh baby's kidnapping was so sensational. It was a case of a criminal thinking of a novel use for an invention.
We made the first move: we let the Palestinians set up an autonomous government in the territories. And then the Palestinians made their first move: they used this opportunity to set up a launch pad for terrorist attacks against us. We will not be making a second move any time soon.
Dude, the rules of war have nothing to do with giving the two sides even odds. The rules are there to protect civilians, to facilitate truces, and the facilitiate taking care of the wounded. War is not a sport.
...you will discover that 1 petabyte is enough room for more Divx encoded porn than a man could watch in a lifetime with no sleep or bathroom breaks. Think about that for a second.
"Weapons are bad" is a simplistic, anti-intellectual, irresponsible aphorism. Scientists need to think about these things a lot more carefully than that.
The 1994 genocide in Rwanda required only one invention: the machete. Preventing the genocide would have required very quick deployment of enough troops to put the whole country under occupation, something no military had at the time or has now. (Special forces troops can't occupy a whole country, and the rest of (e.g.) the American miltiary is a slow behemoth.) Maybe more miltary tech will enable timely action in the future. Or not. Only one way to find out. So, I would not have any compunctions against working on military tech.

I think you missunderstand the question. The question "are there enough idiots to support all the geeks?" implies paying idiots. The question "are there enough idiots to infuriate all the geeks" is a different one entirely.

I'm down to a low level giggle.
Read it all the way through. It has a Humpty Dumpty Clause in the end.
Australian peacekeepers did a good job. Then the UN brought in Jordanians who promptly started abusing the locals. Bugger the UN.
1. You get one guess. It's a very round number. .cu
2. There already is a Cuban domain.
3. A very long time. There's this First Amendment thing.

How about putting a halt to the activities that prompted his threat?
Just make DAMN sure it's legal in your state.
Ssssssssssh!

Very important note for Americans:
Relax. Nobody in Europe watches this without getting seriously hammered.

I'm real glad I still have all those MREs I stored up for Y2K.

Sure, France can defend itself against
any threat, except, of course, the teenaged
thugs that have made life on the Metro so
unpleasant.

Actually, your car is designed to let you gain access with a slim jim, in case of an emergency. It's just designed to make it take a while.
Given your documented ability to cause your female fans to swoon, have you considered adding to your income by teaching men how to do so?

Maybe it's time to revive discussion of error-oblivious programming methods. (Google for it.)
