This implies that DRM and "software as a service" can be used for political ends. Sure it'll give instant results but it will deter people from buying those products and services, and encourage home-grown solutions. Not a good move for the US but maybe good for diversity.
Looking further into it: You're right, his assets were frozen but enough was eventually released to meet the bail requirements. I've almost no doubt he did way was alleged - indeed it's said he modified one of his orders 7.5M times. What I'd like to know is how is this different from any other high frequency trading?
I still occasionally play vinyl that I purchased in the 60's onwards. It's amusing to see the paper sleeves printed "home taping is illegal and it's killing music".
Things happen in cycles - there's no steady state - unfortunately the negative always makes better news than the positive. Glad this positive made some news channels, although I suspect the record industry would rather have kept it quiet - spread the doom and gloom.
Even though it's a long long time ago, I can still remember learning algebra at school. I could mostly "see" the answers by looking at the questions. When asked to show my workings, I was often at a loss, and suspected of cheating. This took me just as far as quadratics when I had to start doing things the laborious way. I wonder whether my visual cortex was at work - because -
I've had a life-long interest in writing systems. IMO Japanese being the most complex and Georgian the most beautiful.
Since the beginning of Lotus 123 I've been entering "just text" into cells, either by formatting or originally by adding an apostrophe in front of the text.
Just use the tools you've been given, properly.
Indeed. The 50% of my acquaintentces who have iPhones take no notice of the update availability - it's just an irritation. The phone does what they want and that's it. Occasionally I'm asked whether it's a problem not to update. I say "probably not, for the sake of fixing an unlikely exploit, it'll slow down your phone". I always update, betas included, but that's because the phone is more than a tool to me (yea ok;-) the technology development is interesting to me.

You do realise that they wear black because it's cooler? I thought not. The heat on the loose fabric creates convective air currents that bring in cool(er) air from below.
Personally I have no negative views about any clothing except when it's used as a declaration that the wearer is better (in any way) than anyone else. Unfortunately many clothes are worn with that as a goal, be it religious (I'll be in heaven - you'll be in hell) or wealth (you are pond-life for not being able to afford clothes like this).
l Take your point though I'd ague that 700MB is closer. Also that both he and I agreed that bit-rot made compression moot, What I don't remember _ it was 5 years ago - was how many records he mentioned.
I agree with your sentiment, but with qualifications. A short group of frames from a violent movie cannot be compared with that from porn. The violent movie relies on a storyline and a run-up to make it for effect - a flash frame of a bloody corpse doesn't create that level of fear or abhorrence. Whereas a single frame of porn can shock a young mind. And when I say porn, I don't mean the kind of thing that's blocked by public websites - the human body (which is entirely innocent) - I mean particular interactions between humans that a young mind has yet to experience because his/her mind has not developed the need or interest in it.
I deal in archiving film and video by the petabyte. At a storage symposium a couple of years ago I met my equivalent in the DNA research sphere, his data requirements blew me away. And all encoded in my cells.

Useful info, thanks.Should make TM much simpler with non-Apple hardware. Also suggests another reason for the depreciation of AFP.

Also he had a "millisecond advantage" over US traders? Did his transactions travel faster than the speed of light? It just doesn't add up.

I'll guess it's been fabricated by the NSA to root out interested parties, and certainly to fool Snowden.
That..
Ban USB - in fact lets's ban Serial - or Busses - yea that'll fix it.
So there is a practical application for nuclear weapons after all!

It's given us a good laugh, and nobody's opinion of McD has changed: Love or hate. Great story.

That's because the law is an ass. Let's bring back common sense and personal responsibility.
