Ever since she shut down the unions, social inequality has shot through the roof. CEO's wages have increased dramatically more than the median wage. This is a direct result of breaking the back of the unions. No longer were employees empowered to demand a reasonable share of the profits of their endeavours.
"but since there is a “statutory presumption” that each incidence of file-sharing alleged in an infringement notice constitutes an actual infringement of copyright,"
This is fucking scary that there is a statutory presumption at play here. I wonder what is required to submit an infringement notice, because it seems like a simple way to convert flimsy evidence into a crime.
Its not Capitalism, its "Mobile Capital"-ism. And governments need to adjust their tax structure very quickly! Otherwise national-level and smaller businesses will not be able to compete.
They haven't got the media library and playlists working at all well in the normal app so its not a good advert for what they might achieve in windows 8...yes sure I could just fix the code instead of moaning...if I ever get any time...
Do you feel that Ubuntu might be losing its way amongst the more technical users with some of the decisions that are being made? For example, forcing a beta-level UI onto users for 3 versions of Ubuntu from 11.04-12.04, integrating paid search results from Amazon etc. Linux Mint, which is rapidly growing in popularity, would seem to be a backlash against Unity and is a splintering of Ubuntu (in fact the vast majority of packages are identical to Ubuntu). Do you therefore feel that Ubuntu's popularity has reached its peak and is at risk of stagnating or declining?
Yeah but if someone gives you a bag containing 1000 pounds of (minced) beef, then you empty the beef out and some of the beef is stuck to the insides of the bag, and you throw the bag away you can't claim that you didn't originally receive 1000 pounds of beef.
I'm not really defending AT&T, just providing perspective.
That said they should definitely be completely transparent about how they measure bandwidth.
Basically it doesn't scale to spend 30 minutes analysing multiple page privacy policies/ToS/EULA, then possibly several hours or days cross-referencing them with applicable legislation. So I think the approach should be to make any lopsided legal document unenforceable, to speed up trade. Imagine if you had to sign a multiple page contract every time you bought something from a shop.
You can talk about abdication of personal responsibility but its as much companies knowingly loading so much stuff in to cover their back, fully aware that noone would agree to half of the stuff if they actually read it.
The result for opening the word document which shows the SSD performing worse than the others (57/10 sec, 48/9 sec, 58/10 sec.) is odd. I didn't notice the author mention how many times he performed his tests, so I am going to assume he just performed them once.
I would like to see this result repeated several times to verify whether it is an outlier, or whether an HDD will have such a large impact on MS Word performance (which TBH I would expect was mainly CPU bound).
The author is dead wrong about asking questions before he's told you the answer. He says this is bad because you haven't been told the answer 2-5 mins before, therefore this is offputting to students.
Having done some of the Udacity courses, I believe the exact opposite. When he asks a question that goes beyond the taught material, you are forced to think about the problem and solve it, instead of parrotting back what you were told a few minutes ago.
I'm sure being challenged with a difficult question is beneficial for learning, whether or not you succeed in answering it.

Not very good if you are in an edit, make, run loop.
The use case I am thinking of is that I ssh into a machine, then run gvim to edit a file.
Does it support a way to handle remote windows yet? Or does it still only support an entire desktop remoted?
This is the sort of things Americans say. If you are an American, kindly don't assume anything about British unions.

the fact that there's a workaround doesn't really make it more acceptable
Man in the middle attack is completely unacceptable.
That's great but does firefox still randomly freeze if you have more than a few tabs?

I think its wrong that we are expected to spend so many hours sat down at work that hour health suffers.
Use OpenWRT assuming you have compatible wifi routers, then you can set up seamless single-SSID with ease.
Why should it be 10%? Did you just make that number up?

How do you propose to carry out 1 million DNA tests that are all legitimate by your definition of legitimate?
contamination, procedural error etc.
Yes exactly.

If we had automatic cars, then the whole drink/drug-driving problem would be solved as you wouldn't be driving the car.

no, the advertisers are deliberately undermining it.
