Also, it would require that the person most qualified to make such decissions is also the person actually making those decissions. How many of us had to suffer the fate of a "golfclub"; where the boss decides to force a certain product upon his employees because his buddy from the golfclub sells it.
Maybe the god-knows-how-many-G launch acceleration and/or the travel back down had some impact as well. Did they also include vials to test right after arrival and right before departure?
If the amount of new programming is insane, the decision that created such new programming must be insane. Mr. Landgraf is chief exec of FX networks, one of the network that contributes to the amount of new programming. Since Mr. Landgraf is responsible for the decisions that created the new programming, he is insane.
What part did I parse incorrectly?
Also, "sanitorium" and "sanatorium" are nearly same thing. The one with the "a" is the tuberculosis one, not the one with the "i". http://www.ehow.com/info_87669...
You still have to tell it what to do. Whether you use a language to tell the computer what to do or use a shitload of incomprehensible configuration options to do exactly the same thing. Either way you are programming, though in only one of these do you actually have a chance to know what is going to happen.
Whenever I program, I use a programming language made by one company with libraries and frameworks from other companies to run on an OS build by yet another company. How is their proposal different?
May I remind the law enforcement agencies that, despite video file storage being ubiquitous and cheap, they have to abide by the inexplicably DMCA-entangled file formats of the camera's and their overpriced storage servers. No reverse engineering the trivial protection scheme and buying cheap servers. You are vendor-locked.
What actionable material have you been sending them? IP's are next to useless (mostly zombie hardware and outside whatever jurisdiction you report it to). Email addresses are nearly 100% fake, so useless. Same for sender domain names. Domain names and hosting is recycled within minutes (literally!) and paid for with stolen credit cards.
Greenpeace wasn't founded to stop pollution or preserving old nature. It was founded to stop nuclear testing. Those other goals might well be good goals for an environmental group and this is not a criticism of going after these goals. I'm just using Greenpeace as an example of an organisation that could have been the breeding ground for new groups, but instead chose to justify it's own continued existence by drastically altering it's own purpose. Likewise, standardization of smileys might be a good goal, but probably not one for the Unicode Consortium to handle. UC could be breeding ground for a group that could try to standardize smileys, but UC itself should only adopt them afterwards and stick to symbols already agreed upon in the outside world.
I call this the "Greenpeace syndrome". After having achieved ones goal, the organisations' continued existence becomes the new, unspoken goal. For Greenpeace this meant taking on new targets which had nothing to do with (or were almost opposed to) the original goals (which is why Patrick Moore left). For the Unicode Consortium, having come close to including every existing character, this means inventing new ones to include and grasping for straws.
Does anybody know how this compares to the hard sciences? How many published math papers turn out to be incorrect? How many physics experiments cannot be reproduced?
I'm glad I'm no longer involved with any COBOL code, but my 10+ years of COBOL programming has left me with the impression that it's not going away any time soon.
WordPress and all of it's plugins and themes are a huge target for hackers and reliably available online. The main problem is that users don't regularly update, or rather that they can't in many cases. That is, assuming the plugins are updated for security holes at all.
I wouldn't be surprised if hackers had databases of the exact versions, plugins and themes of millions of WordPress installations. Just wait for a new public disclosure, replicate the exploit and attack the matching sites in your database. They could have hundreds of freshly hacked WP sites every week. These sites may only stay hacked for a few days or weeks, but it's simple economics.

+1 self-writing joke.
You beat me to it fair and square.
Werner von Braun never decided to go to the moon himself.
He decided to create rockets.
Did he create rockets?

"The amount of competition is just literally insane," says Landgraf.
Then you should commit yourself to a sanitorium, mr. Landgraf.
"Literally" does not mean "very much like".
You still have to tell it what to do.

Either way you are programming, though in only one of these do you actually have a chance to know what is going to happen.
Now if only we could have some way to create such crap-idea-generator scripts without having to code.
So it's a system that assumes everybody is nice and honest and nobody will ever try to cheat.

There are alternatives besides "IOS" and "jailbroken IOS", you know.
You sure about that?

Don't edit them away. Let them stay in all their misrendered ugliness.
Slashdot should be fixing their bugs, not us working around them.

Nobody else asked either, they were just agreeing that it should have been explained.
Version 1 was ported to VIC-20 (and worse), albeit without networking, so no "Internet of Anything": http://hitmen.c02.at/html/tool...
Since you're complaining about the term not being explained instead of asking what it means, I'd say it's ubiquitous.
To everybody who is going to be bitching about how dead COBOL is:

And, sadly, it's impossible to use for somebody barely technical enough to order an overpriced preinstalled WordPress site from a hosting provider.
WordPress is a security problem
I know I'm going to catch flak for this.
WordPress and all of it's plugins and themes are a huge target for hackers and reliably available online.
The main problem is that users don't regularly update, or rather that they can't in many cases.
That is, assuming the plugins are updated for security holes at all.
