In England, if you steal money from a bank using a computer, there may well be a computer misuse act offence on the charge sheet, but the main charge will be theft or fraud, much the same as if you had stolen the money from the bank using forged paper documents. If you raid the bank and take the money by force, then there will be additional firearms and robbery related offences on the charge sheet.
From the police's point of view, it will be the cybercrime unit that deals with the investigation and passing the information on to the Director of Public Prosecutions, because they are the ones with the IT experience to deal with it. The work required by the police is a bit different from the usual fingerprint and DNA sample approach used for offline crime.
It costs the same to get Jeremy Clarkson to write a weekly column whether 1 person reads it or 22 milion people read it. Hosting costs are not that great in comparison.
There are 105,000 paying subscribers. The rest are print subscribers who get free access to the website. Half of the paying subscribers use the iPad App at £10 per month less Apple's commission. From what I can see they are making about £10m per year in subscription revenue less billing costs compared to £22m in advertising revenue previously.
I know that. I suggested telling people where to download the copy as an additional service, then most people will go there rather than asking you to send it to them. Of course you must be prepared to send it to them if they ask.
You might develop something for your own personal use. That isn't distributing it. Apart from stuff handed to college lecturers for marking purposes, pretty much the only code I've ever written is for personal use.
You could comply with the Section 3(b) option to provide information about where they can get a copy of the source code for no more than the cost of sending it to you. You could also, as an addional service, and to reduce the number of enquiries you get, tell them where they can download it from your website.
Sure, but it is nothing like the difference between Greek and Finish, which don't even use the same alphabet. Bristol in England and Newport in Wales are only 30 miles apart by road and about 20 miles by boat, but their dialects are completely different.
The difference is that Texans and New Yorkers speak approximately the same language, whereas the Finns would need to converse with the Greeks in a foreign language, most likely English.
The Weights and Measures Act 1963 - The yard or the metre shall be the unit of measurement of length and the pound or the kilogram shall be the unit of measurement of mass by reference to which any measurement involving a measurement of length or mass shall be made in the United Kingdom; and- (a) the yard shall be 09144 metre exactly; (b) the pound shall be 045359237 kilogram exactly.
It's not like the millenium bug because there is no unmovable deadline to fix it. Even if support does end in 2014, Windows XP is still going to boot up and function just as it did before.
Does it work if one person has a Nintendo DS and the other has a Sony PSP? Will the new standard work between different types of gaming device? Obviously you both need to be playing the same game.
This post is "new". Nobody has ever made a post quite like this one before. Is it an "invention"? I doubt it. Could I get a patent on it? Almost certainly not. Copyright, yes, but not a patent.
First it has to be an invention. Then you can worry about whether or not it is new or non-obvious. I'm not really convinced that this is an invention.
A patent may be granted for "any new and useful process, machine, manufacture, or composition of matter, or any new and useful improvement thereof". Does chopping the last stage off an existing process qualify? I doubt it.

22 million people used to read it before.

No, but I think the idea of being able to draw flowcharts on the screen and attach code to each of the boxes could be an idea that has mileage.
Japanese characters are mostly sound-based rather than meaning-based, though a single Japanese character will generally map to two latin characters.

The big task is getting a payout from the child of more than a few dollars in pocket money.
Presumably when they start Kindergarten at age 5-6.
Because it depends on the atmospheric pressure the water / ale / lager is stored in, and pressure is measured in kg/ms^2.

US law says the same thing.
Do you know anyone who can count individual carbon atoms?

In the same way that iOS is a bastardised BSD.

Can I add that Windows 7 doesn't come with flash either.

So the "invention" is removing the ability to redeem your winnings? Not really patentable subject matter is it.
2.75 was EDGE, so I guess LTE would be 3.75 or thereabouts. Maybe 3.9 if speeds are close.
