Credit card companies pass on most of the cost to the shops and stores where the stolen credit cards were used. They take back the money and keep the processing fees.
Depsy currently only scans Python and R projects. It's probably going to take a bit more processing power to include all popular programming languages.
Not really. When you mean to say "more than we expect you to reasonably use", you say "more than we expect you to reasonably use". If you're not in a situation where something is unlimited, practical or theoretical, you simply use a different word.
(As a side note, "more than we expect you to reasonably use" is subjective to the point of being useless).
No matter how you twist it, "unlimited" means unlimited. If they're not offering a truely unlimited service, they shouldn't be labelling it "unlimited". The fact that people have come to expect companies lying to them, doesn't make it right.
This poor slob is laughing all the way to the bank.
I'm glad for you. I've done the outsourced code "integration" work as well. It got me all the way to the bank alright, but I sure as hell wasn't laughing.
Having worked in a 10-hours-a-week-in-meetings company, I kinda like the less time wasted by Agile. It is supposed to turn the manager into a problem-solving facilitator to the team instead of a controlling boss. Sadly, most managers have an ego-problem, causing them to prefer span-of-control over productivity. Agile was created to give managers a cool, hip buzzword to tack on their resume, while not being too disruptive to the workers.
Any neo-nazi fanboi able to read could have already read it; it's not like the lack of official publication made it impossible to attain. I don't really care to read it myself and more than I'd like to read some other politician nutjob's manifesto, but if the fear is that people reading it will become nazi's... those types people rarely require any reading to be like they are.
if someone puts in an incorrect DCMA claim on penalty of perjury, its on them in a court of law
As I understand it, this is incorrect, and is actually one of the most significant issues with DMCA.
The original claim has no penalties on it whatsoever; the claimant isn't on the line for anything and can lie and cheat without a worry. The receiver of the claim has to act as the claim tells. The person whose video is taken down can file a counterclaim. The claimant can then take action against the counterclaim, only at this point is there any risk of penalty of perjury for the claimant.
The guy seems to confuse patent and copyright law by blaming Google for making a distinction between the two. Did the guy ever wonder why there are separate laws here?
As an added bonus, he says Google is evil for only going after infringements of their own patents, and not his copyrights. Is he implying that Google should knowingly misrepresent itself as copyright owner of somebody else's work?
No offense, but if you need to spend hours learning and memorizing hexadecimal (I presume you meant that instead of a base-6 system?) and binary math, CS is probably not for you.
They teach non-decimal (i.e. binary) math in elementary school in my country. Not because of CS, but because it teaches kids abstract math, and not a bunch of magic tricks that only work with the 10 holy symbols.
We had this a few years ago in the Netherlands, where a major bank could not accept digital payments or handle ATM machines for a few days. If I didn't have the habit of keeping enough cash money in my wallet at all times, I would have been unable to buy food for those days. Is this what Sweden wants to risk? Have they never heard of the word "backup"?
Also; negative interest rate. When they eventually pass this negative interest on to the customer, keeping cash will be more profitable than putting it in a bank account.
It sat on the top of my desk after I bought it. It lay on top of my lap when I read it. It was put in a big rack of other books after I finished it. Once, I even had it balanced on top of my TV set, just for laughs. I moved that book around so much, one might have called it mobile.
I didn't watch any of those movies, but I think I once read a book which was printed on paper from a tree which was cut by a logger who uses a phone whose OS contains sourcecode partly written on a computer running Ubuntu.
So I guess 2015 IS the year of Ubuntu on the desktop afterall.
They believe in a false god and their religion is fake
Know any religion to which this does NOT apply?
Also an interresting point; muslims believe in the same god as the jews, christians and rastafarians, it's just that they have an extra book, like the mormons.
Everybody likes to invent new and exciting stuff, including programmers, not just open source ones either. The difference is that in programming, building something that already exists results in a program nobody needs or wants.
If you are constantly distracted by the shape of your steering wheel or the inconsistent way the pedals work, they are grabbing your attention. When you're driving, you're typically thinking about what is happening on the road. If you are thinking about how to use the car; get off the road and hand in your drivers license.

EVERYONE can pick their jobs. I don't know, at least in the US, where anyone is forced to take any particular job, no guns held to heads, etc.
Not every country has the incredibly high welfare standards of the US. /sarcasm

Yeah, only people who speak perfect english can ever be credible.
Fuck Einstein, Curie and all those stupid Greek philosophers.
Knives are very easy to use, but that doesn't mean I'll let some random bozo perform surgery on me.

When all is said and done, they'll only have a few hundred million $ loss.

What if the official currency is digital-only currency?

Oh, it was.
It sat on the top of my desk after I bought it.

Actually, you make a good analogy.
If you are constantly distracted by the shape of your steering wheel or the inconsistent way the pedals work, they are grabbing your attention.
When you're driving, you're typically thinking about what is happening on the road. If you are thinking about how to use the car; get off the road and hand in your drivers license.
The problem is that UX/UI people like to invent new and exciting stuff, while they should be making stuff familiar and boring.
An interface that a user doesn't notice while using it, is an interface done right.
