This morning, Firefox updated itself to v3.6.6 after which, it started crashing on cnn, amazon and some other sites. Completely unstable. I reinstalled 3.5.10 and now it is fine again. What a piece of shit.
The self destruct mechanism link in TFA is a link to a review of Ironkey's self destruct. I was going to say, this isn't anything new. I had a Sandisk brick itself when it could not be ejected. We switched to Ironkey. We havn't had any problems with these and the encryption is hardware based so it is pretty fast. There is an option to have the drive be capable of being reformatted if you can't enter the password within 10 attempts.
I have not had a lot of love for fingerprint scanners readers. I think I will stay with Ironkey.
This is part of Microsoft's continuing initiative to clean up the menu bar by removing stuff. I bet in its final form, this baby won't have any buttons at all! The way you will navigate is open up notepad and type out the URL. Then, you will simply mark the text and drag and drop into the new streamlined interface. Pretty slick, huh?
No, but what else are they going to do with all that leftover lead that they didn't put in ROHS parts? They already got caught putting it in children's toys.
Programming in Python 3: A Complete Introduction to the Python Language by Mark Summerfield is better IMHO.
I gave up in the middle of Learning Python 3rd Ed. One of the things I absolutely hated about Learning Python is the author continually telling you about X will be covered later in chapter Y. There is a LOT of that. That and half-way through the book, I still couldn't do anything simple as he hadn't even talked about for loops yet. Too much detail on the finer points of data types and too little "quick start". I got bored with this book.
I don't doubt that there is a lot of great info in that book. It just isn't organized very well at all. My guess is the 4th ed. is changed to reflect Python 3.x. If it were reorganized, it would probably be really good.

you can't unambiguously list it, because on paper you can't tell the difference between a space and a tab.
You do realize that you can use spaces instead of tabs? You just have to be consistent in the way you indent. Your comment is invalid.

You ought to know.
"The OS will feature a richer and immersive user experience..."
This is marketing speak for "you will have to work pretty hard to get it to do anything"
going down the tube
"We're DYING to bring you the new iPhone"
"Look at the new DROP DEAD gorgeous iPad!"
provided the German government destroy the drives by burning them in a furnace. Everybody makes a mistake once in a while, huh?
According to TFA, the researchers used theoretical juries of undergrads, and merely swapped the photo associated with them.
I hear the picture they used of Hillary Clinton got life.
whole belt on NutraSystem!
return "Millions and millions"
Shouldn't that really be:
return ("Millions", "millions")
much more pythonic that way
Lip stick on a pig
Isn't this sort of like putting a meter on a sewer pipe and counting the turds as they go by?
A billion dollars later and my Prius will be a Chevy pickup.
Like most emergency powers, it requires the President to report to Congress within 48 hours.
Yeah. Via e-mail.

Yes, I would, but they would not.
No, but if you put a copy of Windows in the bag, bury it and when you come back in 10 years, you will have an old copy of Windows.
Depends on your point of view. It is their rights that are being managed, not yours. Personally, I just won't buy this shit.
Read this. Your research is faulty.

I wonder if they clicked the "Safely Remove Hardware" icon first?

Really you'd want to create some sort of probability donut. Fly right through the middle. I propose calling it the Homer-Schrodinger shield.
I think it should be called the Siegfried-Roy donut puncher effect.
