Yes but the thing that makes that all less toxic is that the applications are typically not something the org could seriously consider selling and a million miles from any trade secrets of the org. If there is someone in management that went near a university for something other than an MBA you could put the patch to them as being similar to publishing a paper - a positive contribution with the name of the company on it and no threat to the business model.
If somebody wants it, you want to give it to them and are allowed to do so by the author of the changes then the code has to go with it. If none of those fit it does not matter and the changes will be forgotten.
The licences are really very simple. The code only has to be released to people that are using the application defined by that code. If nobody is using that version there is no obligation to release the code.
While it would be nice to give something back whoever did the patch owns it and are under no actual obligation to release it to anyone that is not using a version with that patch.
It used to happen all the time but we are worrying more about uncapped wells now. So while a bit of a disaster, avoidable and not a good thing to happen at all I don't think it deserves the hype.
The above product advertisement from an AC is actually on topic and the sort of thing that could be used in this situation so should not have been modded down.
I have warned all of my immediate non-tech family to ignore "free upgrade" offer, but what if (when!) MS sneaks it in anyway?
Then you get calls along the line of how their computer is too slow to use and how skype doesn't work any more because Win10 has reset sound settings to default.
Going by past history we are only four days away from a massive MS fuckup that a high school student with a programming assignment would not be able to excuse.
Zune, Azure, what is it this time that won't like the leap year?
Snakes and so on - but no lions, tigers or bears so other places are more dangerous. There are crocs but normally only where you expect them and only in the relatively depopulated north of Australia. It's very rare for a croc to walk down the main street of a town and it makes the papers when it does. Both times I heard of in the last decade or so were during floods and the crocs decided to get well above the flood level.
A bit of a worry since I even did a bit about the hardware and disassembled code in high school! Not difficult stuff but without the concepts of how it works programmers can do some pretty stupid things.
The enormous pile of stuff you dumped while arguing about an analogy says otherwise and you are doing nothing with your denial other than demonstrating that you are even less worthy of respect.
"Seven Eves" has a bit about the "what could possibly go wrong" aspects of a nuclear rocket on the cheap. Those SF movies with the stuff at the other end of a very very long boom from the living area have got the right idea too. I'm not saying it's a show stopper, but horrifying is the way it has to be treated if used correctly. Being casual about radiation is not the way to work with it - it needs to be kept away from soft squishy organic bits as much as possible so automated to the back of beyond. That's pretty well why it wasn't a 1960s thing but makes a lot more sense now.
It'd be bad form to get frightened of a koala and beat it to death with a stick
With the noise they make at night in mating season it's normal to get frightened by a koala:) With the claws they have it's even a good idea. There is no way I am going to touch a wild koala considering how easy it is to find them in the daytime by just looking for the trees covered in scratches.
If you've got to time it right to duck and punch a magpie to get to work
Keeping eye contact works or waving your hands above your head until you are a long way from their nest. Normally they give you a warning swoop first and you hear a click above your head unless kids have been throwing stones at them or something - then it's the job of the poor male magpie to drive off the scary intruders by drawing blood. The more of a threat you look like the more chance you'll get dived on, which sucks if kids have been stirring them up making every human a target (instead of cyclists etc). If people have been feeding the magpies and nobody has been picking on them the magpies don't dive on people but still tend to go after dogs.
And they expect me to tackle that sort of shit without a firearm if I move there!
No. I learned how to fire a rifle at seven. I also learned a lot more about gun safety than the NRA preaches around then and was probably a better shot than most of the 2nd amendment weirdos by the age of ten. A co-worker made a "Brown Bess" replica with a one inch bore, and it takes cartridges instead of muzzle loading. It's legal.
Its partly due to how terror attacks are covered by the media
Yes - a mentally ill guy holding up a cafe became a "terrorist" and due to the over-reaction a hostage ended up being killed by a police bullet due to a military style response by people who were not real military. There is a strong push to buy votes with fear and Mordoch's media is part of the push. No conspiracy, it's all out in the open with a wide money trail to follow.
Butcher birds and plovers do more damage but less likely to attack unless you get very close to their young ones. Cassowaries have killed but are very rare.
That adds another complication and why an average is taken. Also it's just as well. The Atlantic is getting wider at about 20mm per year. If the sea was rising at 20mm per year we would be so screwed.
With a farm full of windfalls and rejects definitely, but then again you could also get a pile of methane out of it like sewerage treatment works have been burning to run stuff for decades.
Yes. Keyboard shortcut to launch browser then URL.

If you order it to download your rootkit or whatever you can get feedback from wherever you have hosted your little bit of nastiness to tell you that it has been picked up.

World of warcrack runs on linux and minecraft used to so probably still does.
Nice try but linux had modules before this site even existed.

One of the reasons I do not. Another is their ability to remotely delete ebooks.
How the heck is "... it begins" modded "Insightful"?
Because the pebbles were unable to vote.
Windows 7 is still on sale, performs far better, and has an interface that is doesn't have people ringing up tech support to ask how to turn it off.

That's correct, we don't have the 2nd Amendment right to open fire in a crowded theatre.
