If you're paying attention to the industry and the hires, you know that there are a LOT more than "ten people running Magic Leap." That notion doesn't even pass the smell test.
So your answer is no, you don't know anything different.
Your condescending response that is the equivalent of "educate yourself" is less than worthless, seeing as that is exactly what he/she was trying to do by asking you this question.
A toddler took a gun from his mother's purse and shot her in the head killing her. With smart gun technology that would not have happened.
My parents actually had an ingenious solution for this exact issue when I was a toddler that didn't require smart gun technology... They never left guns in the reach of children.
The American Constitution does not grant any rights. The rights that are protected by the constitution are fundamental human rights. The constitution merely says the government cannot encroach on these rights. This is seemingly minor, but very important distinction.
I want to point out something interesting. Those men are referred to by their by their adolescent-y pseudonyms, but the women are referred to by their real names.
It seems kinda weird that a bunch of misogynistic right wing males would have nominated her then.
These are not people known for being the sharpest pencils in the box.
Clearly that's it. They want women out of SF, but they accidentally nominated a women because they're stupid.
Most people, when confronted with facts ("they nominated women & minorities") that contract a held hypothesis ("they want women out of SF") revise their hypothesis. But feel free to keep ignoring facts in order to cling to a false narrative.
Most of the time you'd be right but take a look at the sick puppy web site and you'll see it really does fit the stereotype to to point of being barely distinguishable from parody.
It really is weird anti-feminist shit going so far that Grandpa would give them a paddlin' for having a heathen attitude to women.
Where can I find said "sick puppy website"? The groups you're referring to are the "Sad Puppies" and the "Rabid Puppies". Considering you can't even get the names right, I assume it's safe to conclude you have no clue what you're talking about.
The insurance industry also used to profile based on race and gender. I'm not sure I want government policies doing everything the insurance industry does.
Do you really not understand the concept of "free speech" exists outside of the First Amendment? The free exchange of ideas is kind of a cornerstone of western culture.
Believe it or not, there's a world outside of the US.
You're missing the point. GP was pointing out that many H1B holders would "sell their soul", as you put it, to work any tech job in USA making 5x what they make back home.
When a job market is oversaturated (like video game development), wages and working conditions are driven down. It's not a coincidence that the abuses of the "robber baron" industrialists in the early 1900's coincided with huge waves of immigration from Europe and elsewhere.
Not sure about later versions of Fallout 3, but originally party members would perma-die. There were console commands that you had to do to make them go unconscious instead.
In fact, the "men are failing to grow up" is a common theme in many feminist circles, which are largely characterized as "liberal". Example: http://time.com/179/men-are-ob...
My point was simply that server class machines are typically slower and more reliable versions of desktop hardware. You end up paying a huge premium to use server class machines as a workstation. That premium can include performance.
PE1950's and 2950's are pushing a decade old. As a short-term prototype, we recently replaced one of our staging servers (PE2950) with a Intel NUC i5 (has a laptop processor) which performs SIGNIFICANTLY faster (roughly twice as fast). Most high-end laptops will easily outperform older servers.
The processors in those old beasts just don't cut it anymore.
How's the straight-CPU power on the AMD machines? Comparable to I5?
We've been using NUCs as mini development servers, and so far I've been disappointed with their reliability. Apparently there are widespread problems with the USB3 when connecting to external drives (intermittent, only happens on some of our NUCs). Additionally, they intentionally crippled their driver stack to not support Windows Server.
As another "infected person", valleyfeversurvivor.org Is filled with misinformation and fear-mongering. The community is filled with hypochondriacs blaming everything from smelly farts to tooth loss on the disease.
Valley fever is no more dangerous than the flu. Most people who get it recover on their own with no complications and sometimes without even realizing they had it. Rare cases result in long term problems or death, but again, those are extremely rare.
There are multiple forms of infection. I recently got taken out by this for about a week and had to go on intense anti-fungal meds. Most people just get a minor rash and flu-like symptoms and it goes away on its own. Few even realize they had it.
There is a form that basically remains dormant in your system for the rest of your life, however it's rare and mostly only affects immunocompromised people.
Some people treat Valley Fever like some doomsday infection, and some sites like valleyfeversurvivor.org have communities of people acting like it's the source of all their health problems regardless of whether or not it's actually true.
Diablo II had a standalone single player mode and Blizzard got a lot of complaints about people not being able to use their single player characters on the online side.
This is flat out wrong. You could use single player characters on Battle.net as "Open Multiplayer".
There were two types of battle.net multiplayer: "open" and "closed". "Open" is with any character you created locally, while "closed" works exactly like Diablo III (to the user, at least)
The argument I always hear from Libertarians is that regulation is bad because eventually, regulatory organizations are taken over by the industries they're supposed to regulate thus providing entrenched government power for said industry, elbowing out competition.
You know, exactly like what everyone is complaining about on this article.
I should know, I have this installed in my MBP and had fun hearing a beep every 3 seconds. My coworker in the office next to me even complained about the incessant and frequent noises from the hard drive. Apple's support told me it was "working as intended."
Your comparison is completely wrong.
The situation is more akin to a programmer going to slashdot.org (a community website for people of their trade) and mentioning it to coworkers.
Just because there are a few assholes on slashdot that hate on women, etc, it doesn't make every user of slashdot racist / sexist.
every innocent person convicted for a crime means a guilty person not convicted for that crime.
Except for victimless crimes. In those cases (drugs, speeding, etc), the only positive of punishing an innocent is monetary fines.
Why else are most victimless crimes punished with fines instead of jail time?

is there any real info?

The Constitution, where the whole freedom of speech comes from, is only talking about the government's ability to censor speech.
I pray you are not an American. If so, the education system has completely failed you.

Good job erasing the opinions of women and minorities just because they don't agree with your politics. That's downright bigoted of you.

No, "free speech" doesn't exist outside the context of the first amendment.

The reaction to this seems to fall along political lines. I've seen a number of columns from conservative authors...
I'm not sure if you read slashdot, because there was an article posted last week from a left-leaning writer / psychologist basically saying these kinds of hobbies are bad:

Yeah, you could go without sex. Let's take a look at the Catholic Priests and see just how well that works.
Are you implying that going without sex turns people gay? If so, you're making the grandparent post's point.

Talk to your doctor if you have questions.

The problem occurred when people removed the factory-installed 5200 RPM hard drives and installed 7200 RPM Seagate hard drives.
Simply not true. The 7200rpm 500gb Seagate is available as an option.

this time the image quality was improved, particularly at higher resolutions (1024x768) where the Voodoo1 struggled.
Interesting, considering the Voodoo2 had a 800x600 resolution limitation
