Yeah.. I am not completely sure if this one is a good idea... I know that I really like my 8350 because of really parallel usage.. but that's not what most people need out of it. I also know that things will probably get pretty interesting in the future... Like others have mentioned, AMD letting their brightest engineers go a few years back was probably one of their stupidest mistakes. The trouble getting to next gen manufacturing is another big issue.
You can get a pretty decent copper/aluminum hsf for $30 these days.. the 4770K is $360, if this comes in at $250-280, could be worth it.. also, if you *are* doing highly parallel loads (virtual machines, background services) the extra cores are a boon... using an amd 8350 currently for the more workstation friendly workload.
I was going to mention I stopped at a couple gas stations in Utah that sold the 100 octane stuff... apparently used a lot for offroad vehicles and other small engine stuff.. I remember it being far more expensive (like 25-30% more than super unleaded), or might have tried a tank of it..
You may want to take a look at NodeJS as well... the community is pretty good.. and other than following the callback pattern that is used everywhere for public modules, and using EventEmitter for events, the community is really nice. The two mentioned issues are mainly about consistency through the platform over being mean for the sake of, a lot of libraries will expose a monad-like interface with promises and/or events in addition to the regular callback/options pattern.
I will say it may be the specific channels/communities you are using, as I've had the same kinds of issues in the past with Linux in general, though it has gotten a lot better. I've only had a cursory peak into Ruby, and haven't even looked into Go so YMMV. I will say the Python guys I've talked to have been pretty nice, and Twisted isn't bad. You can also use CoffeeScript in the NodeJS environment, which is at least closer to Python in terms of structure.
I took a director level position a couple years ago... I lasted about 8 months before I couldn't handle the pressure anymore, couldn't even stick it out for a year end bonus. Much happier now.
I can't say how much I actually like the Nexus 4... No, it isn't the fastest, or have the biggest screen... bit it's the first phone I actually liked out of the box. It's also my 4th Android phone. I use Android mostly for semi-political reasons, and the rest for the contacts sync (the killer feature of my original G1, that got me hooked).
It was under $300 as an outright purchase, and using an mvno (Simple Mobile), my monthly bill is $50 for unlimited everything, though I did notice a data throttle the only month I cleared 2GB of data use. Speaking of which, tethering out of the box, and no extra charges on the mvno (it was when I tethered my laptop that hadn't been booted in a while, which then ran updates on my windows vm that kicked my data over the top).
Now, the down side, there are even more apps with spyware in Android than there are in iPhones... Don't install anything asking for permissions it *shouldn't* need, like "full network access" for a simple puzzle game (most apps get enough access without that), or full read-write to SD card (there are storage APIs already that don't require that) for a flashlight app (they do need camera access, for turning the flash on). Other than that, it's been a really nice experience... I don't play many games, so ymmv and all.
Personally, I don't get why Amazon didn't just make a cross-licensing deal with Steam. That may well be the case here, and given Amazon's support for independent authors, it makes a lot of sense. Though with the money Amazon has, I'm interested in why Amazon didn't try to buy Valve outright. Amazon has done an above average job of allowing their purchased companies a lot of leeway in terms of management, so I think it could be a really good fit.
Intel's actually gotten comparative in mid-range pricing (just looking at newegg)... I went with the fastest 8-core AMD a few months ago, because getting similar performance for my use case (development workstation) was almost twice as much (CPU + MB)...
Depends on your workload... for a developer workstation, AMD is much better for the price... I'd have to pay twice as much from Intel to get equivalent performance as AMD for multiple threads (and background services). For gaming, a $200 AMD combined with a $400 GPU does well enough for me... but I don't game much.
AMD does really well on multi-threaded performance as well.. I went with the 8-core AMD for my development workstation, as it handles the background services during development (webserver, sql database, no-sql database) etc better... at the same price AMD spanks Intel for my use case, and would have to spend a lot more to get the same level of performance (more expensive MB and CPU).. Of course most people would be happy with any >= $150 CPU combined with enough ram and an SSD these days.
Lately I've suggested people get the cheapest laptop they can find (mostly in the $300-450 range) and max out the RAM and put in an SSD. Generally a better experience than more expensive laptops... unless you need a high end display.
Large... I doubt such a database (or hell, an LDAP tree) would be too large size (combined with a bit more information than real name, eid, and a list of email and physical addresses). At least once such tree/database per major organization would be very manageable.
If only there were some sort of electronic system that could be used to record generic information, like in this case a list of people and their related email addresses internal and external... a base for relational data... a relational database if you will... And if only it were relatively inexpensive to setup and backup such a system... if only...
This was my thought as well... why there isn't some database that has all these "internal" email addresses is kind of inexcusable though. For that matter, I'd be okay if they scrubbed the actual addresses in favor of real names for any FOIA requests, so long as the content and real name of the senders/recipients are maintained. People in high profile jobs can't have their email address open to the public and still get work done with said email address.
This was pretty close as far as Apples... I'm glad that we have more variety today than 30 years ago... for a long time it was Red, Golden and Granny, that was it... I hope that more variety stays around, if only for different flavors/textures... Then again, as a diabetic I'm avoiding a lot of wheat/grains/starches in general.

You don't have to with C# either...
Then again, I'm becoming a bit of a NodeJS fan for server-side dev.
I don't think of it as "Property" myself.. just the same IP is the term that is used...

I wouldn't go that far... I think there is a pretty good test case for this scenario.

There are plenty of third party Jelly Bean (4.x) roms if you root...
There are people here, that will click on that, how could you do that to us?
They also say data gathered during normal use won't leave the console without your explicit permission.
Unless the NSA asks for it.

LOL, I designed some ECU emulators for training on APU interrogation processes.. ;-) But in this case, my PC geekiness got it.

Then you just register an LLC for every patent, and then sell the "company" that owns the patent... People should own IP, not non-living entities.

I've often wondered why farmers without a contract to Monsanto haven't counter-sued for infecting their crops and making them unusable.
Yay, a few million GPS targeting relays... :-)
That's #1... #2 You are a god damned idiot.
