Alibaba's platform is nor more or less proprietary than Google's. Google stupidly fears competition and forking within their sometimes open-source platform.
Alibaba, a natively Chinese project, could rob them of important *profits*. This is about *profits* and not about community, helping others trying to make things work in FOSS, and so forth. Would I get an English version of Alibaba to break Google's stranglehold on Android? In a heartbeat. But I'd rather look at the Firefox OS to see if its minimalism is even more appealing; Boot-to-Gecko looks ultimately more satisfying. Anything to cut Google, Apple, Microsoft, or even Oracle out of the equation for me, is a better life.
The fight between "neurotypicals" and those within the ASD spectrum will be ongoing. Don't absolve ASD members of the problem with most of the problems you mention, caused by another disorder: sociopathy, and narcissism.
To many, watt does it matter? A few milliamps between friends. Sure it's nice to have lovely power conservation, but I see very few people moving the dials from default in any operating system. Add in any hypervisor, and in certainty, the CPUs go back to pegging the power meter.
Performance matters, don't get me wrong. Performance per watt isn't the publicly desired-metric you make it out to be--for better or worse.
Ultimately, I can't see a future for coal-fired electricity. If there's another way to extract energy from coal, fine, I'm all for it as it's around in abundance.
I don't know what the ongoing answer should be. I know that people have problems breathing because of atmospheric pollutants, and those problems are statistically higher near coal-fired generating stations.
The pollutants and discharges have a negative effect on the long term health of the planet. Miners face a number of job-related problems, too. Add-in the culture of abundance, where we spend fuels so readily rather than conserving them, and we spend far too much on power. That fact should change.
Most of the sales revolve around reference designs, as in motherboards, chipsets, etc. A few will choose this chipset; others will do as they will. Brushing people away from a chipset seems like a fool move, to me, and one that caves into Microsoft's requests so that people don't have a choice on that platform. But they do: don't buy the platform.
And no one says that a few port mods might be done to tweak the kernel or distros towards getting support. Of course, there's the Microsoft patent tax.
To avoid NIMBY, there are lots of turbines in NW Indiana-- out in the corn and soybean fields. At night, there is this weird horizon of blinking red aviation warning lights as the props turn from horizon to horizon in seeming unison. Better than the coal-fired plants with plumes you can see for a hundred miles.
Let's say that Intel wants to limit the audience for the chip, and cut their own sales. Let's say that AMD, VIA, and the ARMs makers will be delighted to fill in any vacuum.
I agree 100% with the sentiments that he expressed. Read Google's ToS. Look at the fines for privacy invasion that Google has. Yes, fine apps. Yes, uses them to rape your privacy in ways you can't imagine.
Will Alibaba's Aliyun do this? Who knows. But to believe Google isn't getting as evil as its competition is to be incredibly naive.
Yeah. And if you can get to the ODB2 jack, you can pwn not only BMWs, but Minis, Mercedes, and a bunch of other tasty cars. You download the key, and using the magick of eBay programmers, reset a "blank" key into a new one. Drive away. Try to look dapper.
Hee hee. You're stretching. Your arms will get tired if you do it too long.
We're pros, or at least try to be. You can execute on lots of bad input and strange stuff will happen. It's the context of the process that defines checking the inputs and moving on appropriately. Bugs? Yeah, there are lots. Wise decisions? It's a fucking bank.
The poster alludes to the address in the post. There are also signs of paranoia, although I'm not a licensed medical professional. There is much hostility here; the poster has an abundance of fear, and not even a dram of warmth.
This is why you parse data before you accept it as input. A QR code is unlikely to blow a parsing buffer because it contains a known maximum data read from the scanning device. You set the boundaries to a number and that's the bound/domain of the input source. Should it exceed that size, kill your code on the way to making an error message (should the buffer overflow be huge, thus not able to execute the error branch). E.g., standard buffer overflow execution prevention code technique(s).
Nothing is impossible. Should you set your buffer length large enough for the input to be parsed/type-checked, it won't happen. Therefore, it's implausible in a bank reader that's going to scan thousands of bills in a minute as a duty cycle. Yes, there are stupid coders. Yes, there are smart forgers-- but you're not going to print a bill like that easily, either.
The poster is confused. QR Codes are data, not actionable unless you take action on them. Moronic? That's a little rough. In need of a lot of education? Oh.Yeah.
What a warm, kind, and endearing person you are. I'm so very sorry that I live far, far away from your town of Hancock, Michigan. It must be a great place, with you living there.
But like other Americans, I'll defend your right to free speech vehemently, until it becomes sedition itself. Then you're on your own.
Other motherboards make use of similar dc-dc converters and have for a long time. It's nice to have a 12vdc bus; makes it more dense. But it's neither innovative or unique. Instead, it's all about density and design for a specific purpose. These aren't retail-able machines. And there are now luscious racks you can obtain with lots of dense Intel, AMD, and even ARM-powered systems. If you have the application, someone has a design.
It might be a good design for you, and not for others.
Were it that easy. It's not that clean, and contains a number of other products that the refiners will tell you about; the most onerous is sulphur and various metals.
While it's a lot like sugar (lots of energy to burn), where do these bacteria live in the ecosystem? I mean-- I like the thought of bacteria gobbling errant oil spills, don't get me wrong. But the questions remain of how much, how long, what's left over.
Of course, the alternative would be to crack the crude, get varying fuels and materials for plastics and so forth.
What might eat the bacteria; what part of which food chain were/are benefiting? What about bacteria excrement? What is that, and how does it help/hurt? What eats oil-digesting bacteria poo? At what rate? To benefit what food chains and ecosystems? That's what's wrong trying to make sense of the report cited; it only serves as a very interesting data point, not something that you can make judgments with easily, if at all.
The bacteria digested the oil, but what did they excrete. If they multiplied and now have no meal, they starve, and their carcasses in turn become something else. There was a process applied to the spilled oil by the bacteria. Is the remainder environmentally tenable? None of that seems to have been addressed.
No measurements have been made of long term effects as of yet, and so we don't know 1) quantity of remaining undigested oil 2) rate at which it can reasonably be digested 3) interim effects on ecosystems in the Gulf at this estimated rate 4) how much remaining oil there is to feed the equation 5) what current fishing rates do to the population, and what might replace the population given these rates, and more.
Democracy is weighing more than two sides of a question, as there are almost always more than two sides to a question. You're just used to American politics, which have devolved to become polarizing.

Ironic, yes.

AMD recently bought a maker of large/dense ARM systems if that helps.
Hasn't happened *yet*.

I see that you're classically trained..... in both worlds.

Multiple sources, as you cite, are a great idea.
Let's say the reason is either one.
Let's say that Intel wants to limit the audience for the chip, and cut their own sales. Let's say that AMD, VIA, and the ARMs makers will be delighted to fill in any vacuum.

Oh? Inside your desktop or 1U/etc server is a 12V power supply, and 5vdc, too. License? This isn't about licensing, it's about density and uniformity.
You can put a 12v battery into your machine, too. It's allowed.

A narrow view.
