Why is Microsoft finding it difficult to retain "Devleopers, Developers and Developers"? Because their philosophy is Closed Source, and developers like to control their entire development environment
Speak for yourself. I left because I didn't like having to may MS Press to get decent documentation.
There is very little that can or should be done to keep a federal detective from asking questions of the wrong guy, or peeking in to what he thinks is you doing drugs and really is just you smoking after sex with your wife. What you need to do is understand your rights, and know when (and where and how) to cry foul when they cross the line from "honest investigation" to "unlawful snooping."
I can't remember buying software and not seeing "no warranty, express or implied" in the EULA. A ruling about waiving implied warranty (the concept also exists in the U.S.) would be really nice.
The only news I've ever heard about Facebook is when one idiot highschool or college kid or another has photos of themselves doing something retarded and gets in trouble for it with their school, parents or police.
It turns out that most of people's everyday lives just isn't newsworthy.
Problem with originality and innovation is that it brings inherent risk with it and all I've seen EA doing so far, is playing it safe with their zillions of franchises.
Of course. The people who call for taking risks and trying new things always seem to be those who are themselves the most risk-averse.
You can always get crap mice. Heck, ball-mice are still sold.
Dang. Wish I could still find them in stores. I'm currently using a trackball because it doesn't flip out when I move it across a wooden desk. Really, for gaming, I'd prefer a ball mouse over all else -- I've generally gotten more consistent movement with ball than with optical.
True, especially if you are looking carefully or know what to watch for (which, I suppose, should be true of security officers). Either way, it leaves a lot of wiggle room.
When you pull up a license plate, you get the make, model, year of the car, and the driver's name and address.
So you'll have to snag a plate from a car of the same make and model, and perhaps a close year. Really, how many people can identify a car's year just at a glance?
Actually, I've heard "None of the Above" is a pretty popular choice in America these days. Unfortunately, even when over half the people choose None of the Above, he never shows up to take office, and the runner-up wins.
- easier to certify: definitely not, because the code frequently shifts (e.g., OpenSSL's experiences with FIPS validation)
In comparison with what? Incremental releases happen in both open- and closed-source software. Sure, the open-source project has nightly builds which won't all get certified, but chances are the closed-source one does too. The difference is that only the open-source one lets people see its nightly build.
Had the radio operators been a little more careful, it would've been a lot harder to break Enigma.
Yes, a lot of their communications were so formulaic that you could start the day with a known-plaintext attack, recover the key, and then use it to decrypt the rest of the day's communication.
If you are asking Microsoft to pay you more than another similarly skilled candidate based on geography or nationality then you are just asking them to subsidize you.
You know, that "subsidy" is nice, but I'd also be fine with just removing the "tax" of higher consumer prices.
It is widely known that there aren't enough comp sci/engineer grads in America, the number of new grads drop every year, so where does Microsoft conjure up these experts?
There are fewer and fewer because of the general perception that companies would rather hire foreigners. I wonder how people could possibly get that idea!

At least the traditional Democratic corruption is just kickbacks and cushy government jobs for friends. :-P
All that time spent around science experts, and you only managed to learn things in the classroom? What a waste.
Arthur: "What's so unpleasant about being drunk?"
Ford: "You ask a glass of water."
Yes, I see no input devices tag here.

How can they tell which petri dishes of cells like olive-pomace oil? Should they make them fill out a survey?
It may very well be popup things. I see them a lot ordering plane tickets.

Nothing is so great that nobody will oppose it. Nothing is so terrible that everyone will oppose it.
We demand privacy in public because we may well have trouble getting it in private.
