The remaining bitcoins in mtgox will be given to the creditors, pro rata.
And I know of nobody who has invested in bitcoins to be crying. We knew this could happen and take it on the chin. For me, it was 40K.
Use Seamonkey.. It looks old, and it's at least as fast as Firefox, and with better security options. It has an email client, and an HTML editor, it'll play all the latest videos, and make popcorn. It's the browser that does everything, and it only weighs a few meg more than Firefox. It's a *Full Figured* browser.
Doesn't matter what new powers he wants, it will be one step further in reducing peoples privacy and freedom. At some point in time the cure becomes worse than the disease. I think we're already past that point.
Let me be clear: it's awful what has happened. But so is the death of a child hit by a drunk drivers car. Or a swimmer drowning in the sea. If we were to stop swimming, or playing in the streets life would not be worth all that much.
Like the drunk driver, these terrorists are losers. Don't make them anything more than that.
What I don't understand is: they know which bitcoins are lost. As soon as someone is spending them, he must be the thief/fraudster/whatever. There is a trail, can't the police track him down?
got one because because of pressure from collegues. Tried it for a week, then gave it to the wife. Wish I'd never done that, the noise is deafening. Should have given it away.
You can brag all you want about your gold plated cables but back in my day we had nothing but a garden hose. If mom wanted to spray the garden, no internet for us kids.
I have the mythical man month right here. It's a book with essays about project management, ie., it deals with groups of people, not individual coders. As far as I am aware it never mentions differences in individual coding productivity.
Plenty of studies have shown that it's true. If you can't see it, maybe you're one of the less productive ones?
I can imagine someone being more productive because he has experience with the business, ie. because he knows a lot he doesn't have to have everything specified or call for meetings. But when it comes down to just coding, I can't imagine someone being 10x more productive than the next guy (unless, as someone else mentioned, the next guy just sucked). Coding isn't that hard. It's a trick you can teach virtually anyone. After years of programming people will develop their own style and some styles better match a certain project than another. But 10 times difference? I'd like to see those studies.
Also "If you can't see it, maybe you're one of the less productive ones" is uncalled for.
There was one episode that stood out: the one where we got to meet Starbuck again, stranded on some kind of planet with nothing more than a cylon that also had crashed. Loosely based upon 'Enemy mine', or maybe the other way around. Maybe one of the better episodes of the entire series (excluding the post 2000 battlestar galactica which is simply awesome)
No, because they want 80K from their users, in exchange for somebody else not naming it's product gnome. It's up to everybody individually to do with his money as he pleases, but this scores high on the don't-even-consider list for me.

I'd like to point out that linux became a lot less secure because of systemd

Homer will be pleased
now my name is unusual so I doubt someone picked my email at random.
No it's not! I see many people named 'Anonymous Coward' here!

sounds a bit like ed
If so, it took them a while. From wikipedia: Recent work done by Brian McNamara et al. (2008)....
Apparently this has been known since 2008. But remember, you read it first here on slashdot!

+1 for Picasa. I like that it is cross platform.

Nothing wrong with your english, and definitely better than this guy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?...
you mean the "Butterfly something" that promised to ship something plus the chip, but time chipped away and something had to give?
I'll settle for "just look good" then.
I'll put our emperor on it!
Max, is this you?
Imagine a beowulf cluster with systemd!
Don't forget the Netherlands, home of the wiretapped and land of the supervising committees.
That's odd. The stuff I wrote in 2001 doesn't even compile nowadays.
My ESR wants me to go to a cathedral. Or a bazaar. But I have to choose.
Linus OS is the choice of scuba divers.
