This would be a nightmare for users. When finding a ride using Uber, it is easy to decide if you accept the price. With phone/data surge pricing you will have to constantly check the rate every time you use the phone for something. The first provider that tries this will no longer have any capacity issues, not because the algorithm solves the problem directly, but because there will be a mass exodus of customers.
it's the slashdot main page. close it when you're not using it and your battery will last much longer. I noticed this on my tablet.
email doesn't seem to make a difference.
I don't know about facebook, I don't use it.
I understand your problems with gluten (which I also have), however it is important to understand that the product you are recommending really has very little of its claimed ingredients. The 6X stuff is 1 part in a million, the 12X is 1 part in a trillion. If you take 1 gram of the liquid, you are only getting 1 microgram each of the 6X ingredients and one millionth of a microgram of the 12X ingredients. For almost all substances, these amounts are unlikely to have any substantial physiological effects, especially ones related to something as large as the gut. For something to be labled as gluten-free, it must have less that 20 parts per million and you will typically eat much more than a gram of something. The claim of homeopathy is that the carrier (water or sugar) contains "memory" of the original ingredient which is supposedly as powerful as the ingredient itself.
It's almost always about those with power silencing those without. It really has very little to do with culture. In the U.S. this is usually done with volume because the powerful are stuck with the Constitution. They would have changed things via regulare legislation along time ago if they could have. One thing important to consider is that the preferred way to get people to shut up is via self censorship, either fear of legal prosecution or exasperation because of a sense of powerlessness.
Even if only a minority votes independent or buys from smaller firms, the bigger this minority is the more of a damper it puts on the larger players. The more money a minority party has the more likely they will be able to get their message across to a larger audience. This can force either the Democrats or the Republicans or both change, at least to some degree, their policies. This is especially true around some of their most egregious ones.
This is also true in economic terms. Smaller firms with better service can force the larger ones to respond as well.
The real question is why there should even be a no-fly list. No U.S. citizen or legal resident should be denied their right to travel without due process.
Since Ruby does not even have a browser plugin, your comment shows that you are just as uninformed as the poster you replied to. The fact of the matter is that security in the browser is hard and all of the solutions that try to run untrusted code in a sandbox have had security problems at one time or another. Java on the server or running standard applications is at least as secure as other languages running at the same privileges. In addition, in the server environment because it inherently protects against buffer overflows it is safer than c, c++ and all of the languages that require substantial c/c++ libraries to gain performance due to slow performance of the their interpreters/JITs.
While this is true, it is only useful in trivial cases. The point is that when using floating point to calculate things, in practice you can rarely assume exact results, only close ones. That it is exact sometimes is irrelevant. For example with a valid value x, (1.0/x)*x will not result in exactly 1.0 in many cases. The situation gets worse with more complex calculations.
It seems the real use of these would be domestic spying where wifi is more likely available. Even more likely is eventually equipping them with 3g or 4g. This would be usable in the US where for a fee they could get a wireless company or two to cooperate.
It should be further stated that this is how psychopaths view things, without empathy they are incapable of feeling the degradation of others that their actions have caused.
One of the telling point about this is that this is recounted by Apple executives as a good thing. This demonstrates how a large part of a certain class of people view the rest of humanity as chattel. They have become so removed from their own humanity that they do not even see anything wrong in stating this fact openly as a good reason for their actions.
This is incorrect. Living a healthy lifestyle will not only increases lifespan, but also increases the quality of life as the body ages.
Most people who do not quit smoking do not quit because they don't want to, but because that it is extremely difficult. Nicotine is one of the most addictive substances and can take up to five years to completely (or nearly) break the addiction cycle.
Smoking is also very good thing to do if you want to increase your chances of having early heart disease.
It is important to note that while nicotine is the culprit in the addiction cycle, it is not the main cause (and possibly not at all) of heart disease, lung disease or cancer.
If you consider any of the addiction of smoking, the addiction of junk food (and I don't know that this applies to you), and being a chronic couch potato as a high quality of life, then don't worry about your choices regarding health.
If you must have nicotine, get it another way. Breaking the cycle of eating junk food will allow the far greater pleasure in quality food. Running is not necessary, but moderate exercise is, i.e. a good amount of walking (hint: we evolved to do lots of this, not lots of running) with perhaps occasional weight training or whatever other moderate physical activity you prefer.
Being healthy usually means a lot less pain and suffering as we age.
This is not entirely true. Wonderbread and sugar are not the same thing. Most of the Wonderbread is quickly turned into glucose, a sugar easily handled and stored as glycogen in the body. Glucose will also to some degree trigger the full feeling. Sugar (sucrose or high fructose corn syrup) will split quickly into about half glucose and half fructose. In a normal not already diabetic person, glucose is not a problem. The fructose does not trigger a full feeling and needs to be processed in the liver like ethyl alcohol is. It is not easily used by the body and has a high tendency to store fat. The lack of triggering the full feeling will cause more to be eaten. Large amounts of fructose without fiber (like in fruit) is a very big problem. Without processing foods in order to create highly concentrated fructose, any fructose consumed in raw foods (except juice) would almost always be combined with significant amounts of fiber which slows absorption as well as its bulk providing a full feeling.
Note that wheat and similar grains also have many issues which can lead to overeating, including that some of the proteins can trigger opioid receptors. Modern wheat also has twice the gluten/protein than traditional wheat varieties.
Also note that many breads also add some high fructose corn syrup. This is also true of many other common foods like ketchup.
If iPad is Mercedes, then there is plenty of room for BMW, Bentley, Ferrari, Porsche, Tesla, Lexus, Audi, Saab etc.
In any case, there are many different Mercedes models, many of which are not only as fast as they "need to be."
As the sophistication of tablet applications increases, the current tablets will not be fast enough, so ones that do push the processor/memory envelopes will remain useful longer.
That analysis is useless because there are two different markets being compared. The first is a dead one where the product is not being produced and has already set a consumer expectation of a much lower value. The hypothetical one would be viable market where the product is still being produced with expectations of upgrades and at least the potential of a viable app market.
About as brain dead as privatizing parking meters. It may bring more government revenue for a short time, but will end up costing more money in the long run, especially after, due to lack of maintenance so that short term profits can be maximized, it has to be bailed out by the government. In the meantime, fliers will pay more to fly with less safety.

you do not have to show that you believed it was true, they have to show that you knew it was false
slightly less than the ipad and slightly more thet the nexus 10
Ok, then 100 times more for the high-res config option enabled and a snazy camouflage case.
What seems strange to me is that they do limit GPS in the first place.
So that they can charge 10 or more times more for GPS receivers sold to the military.

It would be easier if it was hard!

The article is wrong. I went through the links in the article and donated $10 without a problem.

no, the point is that this may be the case now, but according to you, they should just give up a cede the entire market to Apple forever
