OTOH some studiophile still prefers to use tape for multi-tracking. What they like about is the tape saturation sound, which in fact is distortion to the actual signal.
You've got it wrong - audiophiles worries more about 'warmth' or strategically located pieces of metal throughout the room than bit rates, which are at least 'scientific'. So I guess temperature and maybe feng shui are the keys.
Good Ol' 80/20 rules, you get pay 20% for what you do, and 80% for what you put up with. It really depends on the "suck" level. 100K vs 70K is a very significant increase.
A formal title or position or delegated power does not imply "leadership". You may be a director with a bigger budget but without buy-in from the people below and above, nothing may get done. The other thing is, the whatever "regulatory guideline" seems to be a yellow flag to me. It seems you have more latitude in your current job and that you're working well. I'm not sure why you think the BizDev path is more vague and longer-term. The other yellow flag is the non-software core business thing. It really doesn't sound like it's the best thing to jump ship. 10% is really marginally better. If another opportunity without those 2 flags and a better raise, then you may consider... Sounds like the ONLY attractive thing is being a director and managing more folks?
The situation is different for RIM but it's interesting to see many/.ers opinions is that RIM should not develop their own OS and for RIM to dump their own OS and adopt Android.
I recall at the tail end of 3Dfx, they made plenty of marketing splash with Voodoo 4 and 5 and garner plenty of of excitement...
Ok what does "exploiting" means? In this case I don't read that anybody has crack the software, install a hack, spool a server...etc. They did whatever allowable within the game mechanics. Ok thousands of items bought on "unreasonable" price (what's 'unreasonable in a game?) sounds like an 'exploit' but where's the line? 10 items? 100? Also, every single players in the game can do that because it is allowable game mechanics, with everything being equal. Say, what if it's an "early bird time-limited Easter egg"? You don't do it? Well then other leap frog you in terms of player development.
Comparison in real life, this is like a vendor mis-priced items on the shelf - the merchant could possibly stop it at the cashier and revise it or whatever, but if he sold it fair and square transaction complete and customer out the door with the goods, is there any recourse?
Your comment makes me think that the "live forever" question is really a philosophical exercise - think "unlimited time with limited resource". If we really can "live forever", I'd suppose after N years, the whole world there'll only be whole bunch of "Bill Gates & families", "Warren Buffet & families"...etc. and whole bunch of slaves or something? This is really weird.
A. That's an anecdote - is it the case your parents make a conscience decision that you're 100% guaranteed you won't scream and holler at age of 7, that they intentionally stopped you from flying before that? Or it just happened that's the first opportunity you flew? B. It's like "if you can't control your employee, don't hire any one".
I think it is better in the context of hardcore players who wants that flexibility, which constitute small group of the players. Is it "better" for the gaming company? Is it "better" for most other players who don't mod? I'm not sure.
Frankly I understand what the parent was talking about - it's a very specific feature set that he needs but not the internet/app stuff. About 4-5 years ago, I wanted an advance phone that has good/solid outlook calendar and contact sync., other than Windows Mobile 5.0, there's not much (I thought SDA would do it but boy is it ever slow), but then these Nokia feature phones were just all into those stupid games and ring tones that I don't need...etc.

I've read like what, 3 or 4 iRobot related post in the past week. What the deuce?
At first glance I read "House Approves Extended Warranty Wiretapping Act". In all seriousness the house really should approve this one!

It doesn't work well.

They should deploy minimum wage and laws on safe work conditions so that employer cannot exploit their situations.

...require huge cache management (RAM) - I'm not sure if ARM is a fit for that.

Ok, explain how exactly one can 'crack down on screaming children'....
