I think it would be extremely difficult to be a manager by trade. It's one thing to come up through the ranks and be able to work side by side with your guys and gals, because you've earned their respect at this point. I feel bad for the PHB that get MBAs then try to walk in an run an IT department. That's gotta be tough.
There is no indication that Microsoft's board would heed the wishes of the three investors, who collectively hold more than 5% of the company's stock, the sources say
I guess you've never heard of accident insurance, or cancer, or genetic disorders or the millions of other problems regardless of whether or not you "learn to stay healthy".
You don't need the IRS to tell you if you are sick or not.
Good news! They still don't. The premise is just that everyone needs healthcare at some point in their life, so we should all carry insurance. Just like you are required to carry auto insurance.
Furthermore, there is not enough doctors, by any measure of the term, to do anything
Agreed, we need many many more healthcare professionals. But we need that regardless of Obamacare or not.
If this so called Health Care Law has anything to do with your health, it would address the enourmous shortage of facilities and doctors to care for the gigantic intake of patients that are going to come streaming into the hospitals from not just in the USA, but in Canada and Mexico for certain procedures.
Well, it does? The idea is that healthcare is expensive because so much of it is unfunded debt from unpaid healthcare. If everyone carries insurance, we won't have any unpaid healthcare so there's more money available to hire doctors. That's the theory anyway.
With the stroke of a Pen, it is now impossible not to be in debt
Oh you're one of those people who pretends like you can function disconnected from modern society.
Then you kind of devolve into a rant about evil scary government that wants to take your things and there isn't much to address.
The average age of people who create a tech start-up is 39, and not 20-something,' said Bruce Bachenheimer
Source? I find this hard to believe. Does this include every unregistered business, including the ones that fail? Or are talking only about people filing incorporation paperwork? And are we only looking at the age of the peopel filing the incorporation paperwork, or the average age of the employees in the startup?
And if wasn't for AT&T, RMS wouldn't have anything to copy. Come no, these are absurd arguments. RMS didn't rewrite Unix. Period. He did his best to rip it off as closely as possible. And I'm incredibly thankful he did. But he didn't rewrite Unix, he wrote a compiler toolchain and the userland tools. That is not Unix. It's a part of it.
Anyone know how the devices were secured and how it was bypassed? Did they use some type of MDM solution (eg MobileIron, Air-Watch, etc)? Anyone have any technical details?
Unfortunately, it's real. Google around for the videos if you have a strong stomach. There have been a few videos floating around for years, I think Vice magazine did a piece on the drug as well. It is truly terrifying stuff.
Ok, so, reading a book at a stoplight, while legal, WOULDN'T cause my foot to magically stop functioning? But reading my phone does? Go ahead and send me that link to the study that proves this, because it's the stupidest shit I've read all day. It's patently false and absurd to even imply it.
I'm not sure why you believe looking at a phone causes my foot to stop working. Why wouldn't I have the same problem when I'm changing the radio station?
Remind me again of that time an American was sentenced to jail for having a loan because he didn't work for the government. Oh that's right, Americans aren't bat shit insane.
Multicast doesn't work in a lot of scenarios. Multicast requires scheduled video delivery, not so much on demand video delivery. I definitely feel your pain, delivering video via Citrix royally fucks up QoS policies. And Citrix had an opportunity to help out if they would have delivered HDX over a separate set of ports, but nope, regular ol 1494 ICA. So now from a network perspective I can't prioritize video inside a Citrix session on the WAN.
The problem for us was the licensing requirements. It was FAR cheaper to just deploy published desktops on Windows Server than it was to use XenDesktop. I'm not familiar with XenDesktop 7, so I'm not sure if it functions the same, in that regard, to XenApp 6.5.
None. We have a pretty large Verizon Wireless account (many many many hundreds of devices) so I get access to every new device that comes out, our account rep will send me anything I want. So I try out basically every new device that comes out and can use anything I choose. I'm not bragging I'm just illustrating a point, which is, after using every device out there worth trying, I'm carrying around an iPhone 5. The consistency of performance just outweighs anything else that Android brings to the table. The flagship phones (eg S4) still have stuttering and performance issues. I can't even imagine what a 5s will be like. My employee that manages our wireless devices asked me if I wanted a new 5s and I told him no. For what I do, the iPhone 5 is so fast it's honestly not worth it for me to take the time and hassle to switch to another device.

Three investors that own 5%, more than Bill Gates. And who knows how many more thinking the same thing.

If it cuts metal in seconds at one foot, I wonder what it does at 100 feet to a person? The real problem is the power supply, of course.
That is some interesting logic.

The fact that this is +5 on slashdot really drives home the fact for me that the real slashdot died years ago. So long and thanks for all the shoes.
Not sure why you think having your own root name server solves any problems.
I agree with your comment, but your username and 4 digit UID sold me.

Police follow the laws while they're being video taped???? I'm shocked! Shocked I say!

iPads are a pain to use & learn
Stopped reading right here. You're too dumb to have an opinion on the subject.
And that's just the regular Surface running Windows RT. If you want the x86 Surface Pro, that starts at $799 (without the touch/type covers).
There is an entire generation of people who hate Microsoft.

Oxymoron spotted.
