If Sandy Bridge to Ivy Bridge was any indication, Haswell will be a 22nm "tock" aimed at performance but it'll be followed by Broadwell that takes it down to 14nm and gives remarkable power and thermal performance improvements.
Presumably they can't produce these chips at that scale yet. I would be stunned if Intel didn't announce a CPU with a similar profile in a later microarchitecture.
To be fair, a decent number of the "big game publishers of the time" were just guys like him who had been sufficiently successful selling their own games to publish those of others. It wasn't a David-and-Goliath scenario: the world of mainstream gaming at that time had more in common with today's indie gaming.
Which is, of course, the great thing about indie gaming today.
It's not an issue with the web service, but the absence of a native application and Google's refusal to provide the tools by which a thirdparty developer could create one.
That said, it's Google's ball, they don't have to share if they don't want to. I suspect it has more to do with Windows Phone's small installed base than an effort to disadvantage WP. As iOS shows, Google wants to make money off other people's hardware.
The same issue exists, albeit to a smaller extent, with any fossil. There's no guarantee that an individual that reproduced will be fossilised, or vice versa.
So much data on our planet's history is lost to the bitter march of time. But we're winning! Eat that, time!
Neither calling something a store, nor charging money for software, is against the spirit of OSS. Perhaps you should read up on some of the actual objections to the App Store?
First of all, I'm not sure what bundling has to do with it. I mean, as opposed to all the Windows 8 user data they're getting from people who didn't have Windows 8 installed on their PC?
Secondly, surely if the user data was skewed to less-competent users then a more representative sample would should an even quicker rate of acclimitisation?
I'm sceptical of the kind of coarse-grain user data they're surely getting, and the conclusions themselves* but I genuinely can't tell what your point is here.
*That people are able to comfortably use Windows 8 within a few weeks shouldn't be a cause for celebration, that should be the level below which everyone in the project gets fired. The cheering shouldn't start until your design changes are shown to have led to improvements that are worth the cost.
I think he means, it's a software contest, not a hardware one. If you've got two giant software companies willing to make zero to very little profit on the hardware and make up the rest in software, then there's not much left for an all-hardware company. (Although the Samsung comments below belie that, it's the point he's making.) It'd be like trying to get into the business of selling printers without having an ink-making division.
That would depend on how you define "pizza". Topped flatbreads as known to the Greeks are arguably too generic, the modern tomato-topped pie certainly too specific.
Surely the whole point of blogs is that you can read what interesting people actually think, and not a watered-down recitation of facts as you could get in any newspaper?
How can "A" be "Attack", "Artillery", and "At"? How does he know it's not "Attack Observer (with) Artillery Know Sector, Normandy" for example? Part of the point of a prearranged code is that it unambiguously encodes a single message. Otherwise it's not sufficiently reliable to send valuable military intelligence.
The worst thing is when pressure from relevance starts to generate genuinely useless results. For example, Google considers "opens" and "closes" to be synonyms in certain contexts. (You can do a search with "closes" as a term and find "opens" boldened in search results as a match.) Bafflingly.
As far as I can tell, the insulating behaviour of the material arises for reasons that are related to ideas in the theory of topology. Ergo, "topological insulator". The interesting edge effects at the surface are an additional anomaly.
It's a good rule of thumb in that if you have an illness that is causing you to cough, sneeze, vomit or otherwise produce copious and unanticipated fluids - which is most of the illness in a person's lifetime - then you are very likely to be experiencing the infectious stage of that illness.
If your symptoms are not of the bodily-fluid-dispersing variety, then yes, by all means go to work if you want to.
As opposed to using a crowbar, where you can have a flop sweat, be dressed like a sumo wrestler, and be opening a door with a crowbar, and nobody will bat an eyelid.
Even presupposing that a self-consistent set of axioms could be created, the legal process we have could not and has not created it, so it simply isn't possible to apply "the law" completely on a problem to a single, unambiguous outcome.
Case in point, "fire in a crowded theatre": you have two mutually incompatible laws at work and must enumerate exemptions, at which point exemptions must always be considered.
You seem to be labouring under the misapprehension that this law would give one carte blanche to have any information about oneself removed. This is not the case. Like all of the data protection directives, it only applies to information given by you to a company, or information that a company gathers about you in the course of working with you. For example your relationship with Facebook as one of their customers falls under this law, but your relationship with the New York Times as the subject of their famous headline, "Adrian Lopez doesn't read up on things before posting about them on Slashdot", is not affected by it.
You could try actually reading about the act to figure out what it applies to. The second result on Google is the act itself which states that the Data Protection Act applies to all organisations, with enumerated exemptions.
If he asks them to destroy the CCTV tape of the crime because it personally identifies him, hasn't he just identified himself as the perpetrator of the crime?
I dare say that with Mechanical Turk and a set of data protection form letters you could actually make a pretty profitable real-world business out of that.

The headline says people are getting used to it, not that they like it.
That'd by why I said "acclimitisation".
"adaptation to a new climate (a new temperature or altitude or environment)"
Ease of use?

Yes, Microsoft must've paid Dell a lot of money to abandon all that sweet, sweet Dell Streak business they've been doing. Literally tens of dollars.

We have met Big Brother, and Big Brother is us.
As a veteran of boring science conferences, I love that to make his point "he produced and then ate a tiny RF oscillator 5 millimeters across."
