Ahm, so? It's the default on Linux, you have several tiers, you can use no graphics or windows at all (shell), "just X" with twm or just a root window, a full blown desktop like kde. You can even use something sophisticated like clutter without X (direct FB backend).
No. Florian Mueller is nothing more than a pro-Apple blogger, as much as this may hurt your feelings. He is not a lawyer, and he isn't even an amateur expert on patents. I've followed his rubbish for quite some time, and more often than not, his so-called analysis is bs. He's just an idiot with a blog.
I guess in that case a false flag attack would be someone who does not agree with the idea and is using the title anonymous to attack the idea. Not that far of a stretch to see a government entity doing such a thing.
Well, they are part of anonymous in that case. This is the beaty of such non-organizations, nobody knows who is a member of the group, because there is no such thing. There isn't even a shared agenda, apart from spreading a bit of chaos and some/b4/ lulz. And a "false flag op" would only contribute to that.
What if our planet is somehow precious? Not speaking about goldilocks zone or anything, just something we haven't found out (and maybe never will before 4000 or so). Or our solar system? And a change in the gravtitational system would be bad for it? Like, you know, when we finally nuke the earth from orbit, just to be sure...
Things that every computer needs to be able to do. Like managing photos, music and documents. So we want to write some of those basic utilities
That clearly shows that Jon is, well, not outright an idiot, but a man with a very limited view. "Things that every computer needs..." Yea, as he would know. If I want my computer to manage documents, I install a document management application maybe? Why must my development machine, which is just fine running gnome2, manage photos and music? And if it must, well, there is my brave package manager and the internet.
And the dumbest thing ofc is..."So we want to write some of those..." Ouch. Because yea, these applications don't exist. Or maybe they do, but they where not written by you, and since only you know what people want, the existing applications (so obvious now! how could I miss it!) are crap.
Man, nearly every sin a developer can make...Knowing what everybody wants, Wanting to do it all by yourself, Turning every form of criticism into a "yes, but I know better".
I'm no rocket scientist, but I'm pretty sure that while current rockets were based on Nazi rockets, they're not even comparable anymore. Original research based upon older research was done to come where we are today.
If you don't want the IP connectivity, buy one without?
Maybe they are outlawed by then? The EU tried to ban the sale of a certain type of light bulbs some time ago, because of power consumption and other "greeny" stuff. Funny enough, it did hold a while, and only new style bulbs were sold, until someone found a hole in the law.
That's not triangulation. It's triangulation if you know the ANGLE, which you don't in case of towers, because all these towers measure is the STRENGTH of a signal.
If you happen to know the STRENGTH of a signal from 3 towers at a given time, you would then use Trilateration to get the position.
It's not just "best practice". They want to setup a so called "Stiftung", which is something like a "Foundation" in the english speaking world. It is a form of business entity that is often used in Germany for non-profit purposes, and most entities that take donations in Germany are some kind of "Stiftung". These kinds of business entities are well protected (like a GmbH or LTD) and donors get a tax refund for their donations.
And for the kind of "Stiftung" they want to set up, they need 50k base capital, as the law in Germany says. As simple as that.
Pretty clueless you are. 32 TX/s ? That's nothing. I think I can guess what your "financial industry" is. And throwing JSP/ Spring/ WhateverFrontEndStuff in the same pot with EJB makes you even more clueless. Ever heard of separation of concerns? Frontend - Middleware - Backend? An EJB3 middleware app connected to a cobol backend (that's the setup most banks and insurance companies use) can easily handle thousands of asynchronous TX per second on common server hardware.
RoR has it's place, even in the financial world, but that place is the front end, delivering HTML or whatever. But it never touches a backend system without going through middleware, you would be crazy to do that.
Word. Hardware acceleration, performance and other stuff is irrelevant, because vendors and implementations will catch up in no time (this is NOT irony). You hit the nail on the head, because what most people don't realize: once a patent encumbered format (not to mention the powers behind it) like h.264 becomes standard, the floodgate opens for just one more way to control the web. NO. The standard formats of the intarwebs MUST be free, otherwise there is a back door for hindering some people to publish what they want. Never forget, the first web browser was also a server;)
Wew, dude, I thought an API was a place to hide all the ugly code!
See, dude, if you code an API you have at least a place to hide the ugly code, which means there is also some good code. Otherwise there would be just the ugly code. A small step for the coder, a big step for the maintainer. Of course, this doesn't apply to me, as I don't write ugly code;)
Always think of your code as some sort of API if you care about clean, maintainable code. This is a good talk about API and code design: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aAb7hSCtvGw/ from Josh Bloch. It's entertaining too.
This riddle has been solved a long time ago. It was shown that this "dark matter" is actually just ordinary "doesnot matter". Can we go back to real science like smashing things and burning stuff pretty please?

Sooo...What's the news, Microsoft?

Best quote so far.

This. Too bad I don't have modpoints.
I wish I knew that before the 'incident'.

The last real super heavy lift launch system was the Saturn 5. The Saturn 5 project was directed by Wernherr v. Braun and Arthur Rudolph. Not much has changed since. Hell, even the calculations made by this guy, while a century old, still apply and are used today.
They have a Minister of Intellectual Property? Does he work in the same building as the Ministry of Silly Walks?
Wait, this is for real?
Linux enters it's 3rd decade soon, that's the sole reason.

Many people get that wrong.
Who the fuck is that AC stalker? Is it a bot buddy of yours or some real world enemy?
The end of the Windows hegemony is in sight.
Where?
Over there!
Still can't see it.
It's right beside the year of the linux desktop!
Ok.
It's not. Can I sell a app on a linux repository if I don't want to give it away?
Ubuntu brings this by default. You can, for example, purchase World Of Goo from the "For Purchase" Repository.

Probably the nukies have twitter accounts now. Yea, so once transformed into a flower pod they can tweet: "Not again!"

Mod parent up. Amazing story... I need to go back and re-read me some Azimov.
Reading is always good, but you also might want to use a spell checker, because the name of this guy is Isaac Asimov.
