FWIW, I work remotely with a team based in an office. The performance metrics such as number of stories completed, rate of tasks completed, story point difficulty and commit history metrics show that I'm actually the most production member on the team. I think remote working is great, you can do what needs to be done and work more autonomously, but the productivity would depend on the person being employed.
Apple sets its price points based on flash storage amount. If people can easily add more storage, that will be a win for the consumer. Yay, competition!
As someone who has developed with Drupal for several years, I just want to add a positive perspective to balance the expected usual negative comments here.
Drupal is a great CMS and web application framework. Extensible and flexible it can be adapted for many applications. Moreover, the Drupal community is knowledgeable and helpful. Growing from strength to strength with each release, I love working with Drupal. That is all.

Drupal Commerce is a well designed and crafted module suite. It fixes all the failings of the predecessor Ubercart as a complete rewrite and transforms it into a new and powerful ecommerce system. Drupal Commerce allows for the development of a flexible and secure ecommerce solutions. We've been using it for a while now on several projects and are very happy with it as a robust, reliable ecommerce system. Great stuff.
Drupal is an awesome CMS framework for web development. It's widely used and has a thriving userbase and developer community ( see http://buytaert.net/tag/drupal-sites for a good list of Drupal sites. Such crowd-funding initiatives are a good way to enable users to "put their money where the code is" and support their favourite open source project.
Drupal definitely has a "cleaner" code base and better software architecture than Wordpress and a better security track record to support that.
Wordpress may currently win on usability, pervasive in the "blogosphere" and provides an ease of cobbling together a site.
However, I think, If you take the time to learn the Drupal API, you will find it preferable, particularly as a developer.
Over the last ~10 years, I've used a range of similar open-source CMS products, from Typo3, Plone, Xoops, Joomla, Wordpress and Drupal and out of all of them, I prefer Drupal.
I think in particular, I like the flexibility and extensibility of the Drupal codebase, as well as the Drupal development community.
Other additions in Drupal 8 include the Backbone.js and Underscore.js JavaScript frameworks in core.

As a web developer with ~10 years professional experience, the last of 5 of which have been with Drupal, I say Drupal rocks.
Drupal is a great fit for many web development projects. It's 100% GPL open-source software with a thriving development community.
It has a solid a reliable core architecture extensible via a modular plugin system.
Although there's a learning curve, it's worth it.
Like every release, Drupal 8 is making taking steps to improve on the previous, for D8 these include.
1. Integration with the Symfony PHP framework.
This lowers the barrier to entry to Drupal by allowing developers familiar with the Symfony framework to easy transition to building Drupal websites, leveraging the power of both.
2. Enforcing MVC architecture
Drupal 8 includes a new, non-php, default templating engine called "Twig" ( http://twig.sensiolabs.org/ ). No more PHP code in templates.
3. Pure core
Drupal 8 includes more in core to achieve the functional requirements, without the need for additional plugins. For example, Panels style layout builders and the Views style report query builder as well as the ctools framework are now in core, along with the usual frameworks such as the Entity and Field API.
I've used Drupal with a wide variety of government and corporate IT projects.
Common server architecture includes, Linux, Nginx, Postgres/MySQL, PHP5, APC, Memcache and Varnish.
If you're looking for a solution for your next web development project that's easy to set up, and supports and extensible and scalable architecture, checkout Drupal, it rocks!
Actually, it was the USA after WWII that forced Japan to implement censorship in their pornography. Good old Christian values and all that. And now, some time on, America has given up on that while Japan has stuck with the old laws from the 1940's. As far as I'm aware, actual genitals must still be censored in the media in Japan.
If the distributed system had a way of validating the opt-out companies as genuine spammers - it would be effective.
How about having a threshold of 'spam' reports before sending the opt-outs?
It would have to be a high threshold, given the spammers have access to zombie computer networks but given the high number of spam messages sent, a threshold of a million or so might work.

Yes, that's the difference, the role of the IoT botnet. There may need to be more regulation at the source to secure default IoT device configuration.
Can you elaborate?
I've had good experiences with both my recent Brother printers. I used a CISS system and also refillable cartridges, they work fine.

You will find significant performance improvements when using Varnish, memcache, APC, authcache and entitycache with Drupal.

Just use the 'non-standards compliant' mode in IE8 and voila, your buggy IE6 code will render fine.
enough said.

As a developer, that's why I use the IP address and a database for storing user session data. Cookies are too unreliable
