A bigger problem in India is, getting raped at the police station for reporting rape. And police refusing the register a case. Followed by improper handling of the crime scene and tampering of evidence for money. And the lack of a working justice and enforcement system in general, puts the life of the victim in peril. Most of the offenders freely roam about on the streets forever. And even if convicted after decades, with the decades in court room proceedings only adding to the agony of the victim, the punishment is a mere slap on the wrist. We even have the chief minister of a state saying "Boys will be Boys". In developed nations, at least the victims can reasonably expect the justice and enforcement systems to handle the case and bring about closure. In India the victim gets raped mentally for life by the justice and enforcement systems.
It's not just rape. Because India does not have a working justice and enforcement system, there is brazen corruption. A recent survey concluded that the Indian Police is the most corrupt, only followed by the RTO (Traffic Police. In India Traffic police is a separate department from the Police). People are not afraid to commit crime. Mafia is strong because people go to them to settle scores, since the real justice and enforcement systems are dysfunctional.
Is there a real cash outflow here OR is this notional? But the impact it has on the income statement, that's real. Because of the writeoff, the profit goes down and hence the tax liability for that period. And as for the assets on the balance sheet going down, no serious analyst would completely believe in goodwill and intangibles presented on the balance sheet and mistake them for real assets, especially in the field of technology.

Exactly! The main article saying "Phone Hardware business was only worth $116M", is plain rubbish. Its just that IFRS requires companies to periodically test the impairment of goodwill. And Microsloth found out that the impairment is $5.1B, leaving only $116M in goodwill to be carried on their balance sheet.

They will happily erase any evidence for a small sum of money.

In many parts of India, rape is still considered to be a hobby, a "real man's" sport. And none other than the chief minister of one of the states backed it in the name of cultural heritage:
I doubt both the studies but I am sure this will now attract enough eyeballs from many Physicists. I am sure we will soon hear more on this story. Stay tuned.
Violation of space translational symmetry? Changes the metric of space? I doubt both. I think its more of an experimental error by amateur engineers dabbling in experimental Physics.
Its been more than 2 years and the perpetrators of illegally eves-dropping on the conversations of the citizens are still at large. People inside NSA are still happily continuing to violate peoples privacy. Where is justice? Who would trust and come back to a land where there is no justice?
You conveniently forgot that OP clearly stated "FEA/CFD", narrowing down the appliction area and available solutions more than sufficiently
I worked for a major CAD/CAM/FEA software maker and they have only recently added distributed computing capability to their software and it is still very limited in its capabilities. They still do not use GPU capabilities beyond rendering. While I know from my erstwhile colleagues who are now working for another major FEA/CFD maker, and their software has cluster computing capabilities for many years now, their software utilizes GPU too. So I agree with the its important to understand the capabilities/requirements of the S/W before you procure the hardware.

Google and Android are now getting old. And so are Apple and its iPhone's and Mac's. It's about time we see newer companies like Microsoft, Xiaomi etc. come up with amazing new products. Although I do agree that it will be hard for a new and small company like Microsoft to break-in into big markets, but so were Google and Apple many years ago. I wish companies like Microsoft, Xiaomi all the best.

Correction: Balmer was, is, and always will be incompetent.

What will the ministers do now?

Marissa is cold as a stone. She lacks feelings and human emotions. She is a fem bot.
Now, with their shiny new MBA's, they now have a license to defraud the public at large.
Simple. Buy some FX derivatives and you are hedged.
Basically China is demanding that it too should get the same state-of-the-art technology that NSA already got stealthily.
Why not write your own backdoors?
They want nothing but the state-of-the-art in backdoor technology, that was developed by NSA. They don't want to reinvent the wheel i guess.

I usually play Temple Run, Ninjump, Candy Crush. With Chromecast the entire family can join the fun.

For $39 I would rather buy a Chromecast dongle. It's so much more fun to watch youtube and stuff on the bog screen.
