Maybe the problem isn't with the knowledge these kids have, or their methods of acquiring knowledge (because yes, technology helps tremendously in this regard)... but perhaps the testing system is entirely fucked?
TFA was published today. Just because a security violation is reported to the violator at a particular date doesn't mean the news of such event went public on the same day.
Totally this! I've been coding for some 20 years now or so. Even for small personal projects, they go into a managed repository. I lost about a week's worth of code in my youth, then I learned about Microsoft Visual SourceSafe, their local repository system. Then I transitioned that over to Source Offsite, a networked version of SourceSafe. This progression then moved through the ranks of CVS, SVN, and now to GIT. Having version control has so many benefits for even single devs, like diffing revision history. "How did I fuck myself up? Oh yeah, I can just check my commit history!" - This has saved my ass countless times.
This totally sounds awesome, actually. Amazon will most likely have a different inventory of items than what you'd expect at a normal retail outlet. Ever had a fucked up HDMI cable right before a presentation? Guess what, how many options are in town? Now how many options are jacking up their generic 6ft cables to $50ea? Now you can simply just order an Amazon Basics 6ft HDMI cable for their usual rate. There is tons of shit on Amazon Basics now which is at an amazing rate and extremely high quality. I've yet to damage a single product with their brand name on it over countless years of daily usage.
Probably maybe possibly just because of the main features from Opera Max are integrated directly into their mainline Opera browser on all platforms now? No need for Opera to fragment themselves.
This isn't about the "A or B" situation, it is about having a hybrid of both. Use magnetic storage for bulk data like photos and videos, and use this new SSD for database itself. This has pretty much always been the case of SSD vs HDD in the datacenter. Now we can grow databases exponentially larger.
Facebook's video play has a massive fatal flaw. If the video loses focus, it automatically pauses. Yup, this means absolutely ZERO multi-tasking at all. You're forced to watch the video and nothing else. This is especially frustrating when having multiple monitors. I do a lot of batch work which requires interaction once every 20 seconds or so to launch a new script. It is easy for me to watch a video and keep an eye on the production screen at the same time. Simply clicking on that second window kills the video I was watching on FB.
Most of the videos I'd be watching through FB are individual's streaming doing creative things like DIY tutorials n shit. With both YouTube and Twitch being more user-friendly streaming services, this absolutely kills the desire to even touch FB's streaming options.
I wonder if this battery-free cell phone from the University of Washington is anything like the battery-free cell phone from the University of Washington last month? https://mobile.slashdot.org/st...
Disney already tried this with licensing out their characters to other companies to produce video games. They decided to stop that practice entirely and use an in-house game studio instead. Their games went to shit. Then a couple years later, they started licensing out again.
I have a feeling that history will repeat itself with this news of licensing streaming content.
Oh god, fuck UC Browser. I've had to put it on a blacklist in my JavaScript online bug reporter, because it cannot handle even the most basic of tasks without throwing a shitfit and generating countless error logs sent back to the servers. Searching around online to even find out what the browser was, and all I got was other devs complaining about the same issue before even discovering WHAT the thing even was!
Shockingly, it specifically states there isn't a cap.
CenturyLink is committed to providing an optimal Internet experience for every customer we serve. It is for this reason that CenturyLink places data usage limits on residential plans. The data usage limit applies to residential HSI. It does not apply to business-class HSI. Residential 1 Gbps plans are also not subject to data usage limits.
As someone who had to deal with all the bullshit of PCI Compliance, let me just tell ya. This is an absolute MUST. The current PCI spec strictly states that only TLS 1.2 is supported due to insecurities found in 1.0/1.1. Granted, the PCI group is also overly cautious, but it is good to see more and more software force this spec to make PCI compliance easier. Simply having 1.0/1.1 enabled on anything public facing will fail an audit.
My only thought is simplified remote encrypted storage? Something I don't really see the other providers doing. For basic personal documents, I think this would be worth it (think life insurance, social security, etc)
What about internet access? Which other companies are available within these monopoly markets for them to switch to? And considering that basic internet access is a requirement for job applications nowadays, there is no serious way to simply "live without"

I'd be first post, but that LTE latency of sending packets back and forth with the moon is just terrible!
1) First Post ...?
2) best apps for appers who love to app about best apper apps
3)
4) PROFIT!

Facebook purchased the company behind WhatsApp, that's all.

You cannot rate an ISP as a whole. For instance, CenturyLink DSL is capped, but CenturyLink Fiber is uncapped.

The Blue Angles were also in Seattle this weekend for an air show, along with the week prior for practice. Any coincidence here?
One possibility is that they were testing their tracking of F16s at lower altitudes like what the Blue Angles fly at.
36 retweets is now considered "viral"?

You DO understand what a "Slashdot Asks" is, right? (of course not, I asked a question, and the law says "NO"!)
