Frankly if I was the CIA I would be intercepting traffic to the small oddball servers more than Google.
Frankly, at this point, if the CIA cannot access and intercept data from Google they are utterly incompetent in doing their job. For the cost of (at most) giving an employee a suitcase full of money, you get an incredible bonanza of data. Which secret service wouldn't do it?
You can't "withdraw" free software. Duh. It's free, people can use and distribute it as it pleases them (according to the limitations of the free license you released it under).
Sorry, but no. Self plagiarism is not a copyright problem, it is an ethical one. Even if you hold the copyright to a publication, it is an academic fraud to try and republish it on a new journal as if they were new results, without a citation.
What is it with the metric ton of medium.com articles appearing recently? Their advertising and media presence team got awake and started mass-submitting stories to slashdot?
On a related note, there is also an infinite number of shapes a manhole cover can have so that it cannot fall into the hole. But don't tell that to the interviewers.
This brainteaser is old and widely known. And the traditional answer is wrong. (Hint: there are an infinite number of valid points on the Earth surface, and some of the solutions are 20.000km afar one from the other.)
What's the benefit of making it a bracelet rather than a phone app? The phone already has the NFC chip you want.
Phones can get hacked. And most people are already storing passwords on their phones. What use is two-factor authentication if a malicious app can steal both factors at the same time?

The real news here is that Java is now officially crapware.
It's quite popular in Europe. Try to get an European girlfriend next time.
I'm pretty sure you're not the first one to tell him to fork off.
I can almost hear them thinking "LOL who cares we won't be in charge by then, we can as well make this empty promise to get some more votes".
Yeah, sue him. He'll have a hard time finding an attorney, given that all lawyers go to hell.

Sorry, I meant all points that are at a distance 1+1/(2pi*n) from the South pole (wrong position of the division symbol)

The set of points that are at distance 1+2pi/n miles from the south pole, for each positive integer n.

As usual, don't trust journalists. :(
FTFY.
Also, what kind of idiot has NSA-sensitive information and stores it on Dropbox?
Also, 5% of IP addresses, not of machines. If one student in your whole university network has it, that still count as an infected address.
That's cute.
Here's how Optimus Prime got his superpowers!

Maybe we'll have holo projectors when they grow up.
Is there a video version of this post? They were very well appreciated in the past here on Slashdot.
This is really getting my hopes up for Firefly --- it's not impossible. I want to believe.
Yes, but is it 3D printed?
I definitely would. Who wouldn't?
