This is it, end of thread. When I don't know what some ui element does, I push it to see. Usually, when my mom asks for help doing something on her computer, I don't really know the answer in advance. Instead, I explore the menu system very quickly until I see the right option and to her it looks like I knew what I was doing all along.
One day I'll start actually reading posts, not just flicking over them with my eyeballs on autopilot. I read "I read 'Former Truck Driver Reconstructs A Bomb'" and thought "So what? Isn't that exactly what the headline says?"
I wish they would have just future proofed java by porting it to html5. Then they wouldn't have to rewrite their pdP-1 emulator. Plus, according to inception the whole thing would end up running faster.
Sure, but how does the phishing work, exactly? You're going to send an email to their hotmail account asking them to login to their gmail account? You're going to typosquat at fmail.com?
Actually, there will be backup codes, which is similar (no index):
Backup codes can be used to sign in if you lose your phones or otherwise can't receive codes via SMS, voice call, or mobile app (via Google Authenticator). Each code can be used only once. Keep these codes in a safe place -- if you lose access to your phone, these codes will be the only way to sign in to your account.
Of course he applied economics only halfway. He could have sold the algorithm to someone with lower opportunity cost. Someone who makes $100 a day should be willing to split the $600 with him.
How big is this commission? I'm thinking maybe call and say you want to cancel, then let them "convince" you not to. Rinse and repeat times 100. Get all your friends to do it.
If your data is too large to transfer over your internet connection, I think you need at least 3 drives. That way, you never have ALL your drives in the same place at the same time, even when backing up. You don't want some power surge to take out your main drive and your off-site backup on the one day the off-site backup is on-site for data transfer.
I keep two drives at home and one at work. Once a week I backup my main drive to the on-site backup. Once a month I bring the backup drive to work and bring the work drive home. Before and after each back-up, I check data integrity using ZFS (I scrub the main drive before back-up, and the back-up drive after back-up). Although you can use any method you like to detect corruption, you definitely need some mechanism to prevent copying a newly corrupted JPG over your good backups.
Sadly, all of the above was learned from real life failures.
I'm not saying the legislation is good (haven't read it). However, it's not a "self-correcting problem" because many people can't identify a fake. Furthermore, if I fat-finger tifany.com and buy some jewelry, I may not know that it's fake until after I get the merchandise. There are after the fact remedies, but there is a good argument to be made for preventing these problems in the first place.
What an odd group. Wonder what the common thread is? How is it that these companies cmae together to sign this letter?
It looks like a list of companies that have a lot tied up in their trademarks. Monster Cable is always suing other people over the Monster name. Xerox has always been on the verge of having it's name genericized. Fashion houses have almost their entire value in their brands. At least the tech companies can fall back on their patents to defend their turf.
I suspected this may be true so I googled a bit for this number, but couldn't find it. An even better number would be the number of applications abandoned.
Obviously they are different things. According to WSJ, a computer programmer "Organizes and lists the instructions for computers to process data and solve problems in logical order."
Wasn't the flash crash caused by incorrect time stamps, though? If quotes are not being stamped correctly, how would you detect the delays? (no, I did not RTFA)

Actually, hating on MS is so 2000's. In the coming decade, the hipsters will hate on Apple.
Isn't that why new TVs do 120Hz = 5*24 = 4*30

jigga what? (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=frIA7tuBqqY)
I ignored your comment due to: Lack of notoriety, lack of proper citation, inconsistency with the style guide, and of course my severe aspergers.
On the flip side, the FBI wouldn't have been sued unless they did something wrong. Right?

So the conclusion is a stretch? Cool, thanks for the info.
The headline should just read "Confidential data not safe on unencrypted disk"
The headline should just read "Confidential data not safe"
With no meaningful transition (for both customers and developers) from Symbian to WP, why would anybody buy a high end Symbian device today ?
Why would anybody have bought a high end Symbian device a month ago? I doubt most honest responses include "meaningful transition to next OS"
Not really, they used their flextime. More like "nokia employees got benefits"

I'm pretty sure the "real idea" is for people who actually use the bridge to pay for its construction and maintenance.

Probably not worth the trouble, but fun to dream.

Or just turn the laser up to 11.

Are you pondering what I'm pondering? Perhaps the cell phone boom is causing the magnetic pole shift!
