Also, if I remember right, in Europe, electronic devices must come with at least 2 year warranty, compared to 1 year in the US.
Now it's taking half, because it's twice as fast.
I'm wondering if this threat of being fined won't determine companies to hide data breaches. There should be an incentive for honest companies.
Does this mean that one could make a p2p client in NaCl? (as told in the article)
Yes, they support business interests. In European politics, "liberal" does not have the same meaning as in US.
Does the GPS work indoors?
Can't one go around some taxes by paying to themselves dividends instead of salaries?
This is clearly a political move in preparation for the coming elections. For example the resignation took place right AFTER the IMF visit (and I just lost a bet to an older friend who anticipated this since December).…
In Eastern Europe, "socialism" doesn't mean anything. Same about the other ______isms. There is just more or less OLIGARCHY. If I rememebr well, in Romania, most of the right-wing economic measures were taken in early…
Be serious. 2000 people protesting in a town of 2 million is not a mass protest. A couple of hundred people people protesting in several other towns, which have a population of 300.000 each, is not a mass protest. Btw,…
If I remember well, XP wasn't received with great enthusiasm either. A lot of companies remained on Windows 2000. XP became good with the release of SP2.
How about a Facebook OS (maybe fork Chromium OS like Amazon did with Android)?
I think you might be right. Anyway, my distrust for ALL politicians still remains. The left-wing's MO is "think of the children" while the right-wing's is "we must fight terrorism". But in the end they all have the same…

A tramway can be 50 meters long. A bus is usually 12-18 meters. A tram system can be fully automated. An electric engine is more efficient (constant torque) in an urban area with lots of stops. In countries like those…
If flash memory gets very cheap, the USB drives will still have the same price (but they will come with 80 GB instead of 4 GB capacity).
My impression is that Bing is getting better and better. I WILL switch to it IF they provide date filtering for all searches. (For example it's impossible for me to use Bing for searching on HN because I get out of date…
$500 = bribery $5000000 = lobby
StartSSL works fine with all recent browsers. (I think IE 7+)
How did the author connect the number of startups with the safety net and reached the conclusion that the safety net is a good (or a bad) thing? What if in countries with social safety nets it is much more cheaper to…
Windows XP is still being supported by Microsoft (until April 2014). I think that IE8 is the most recent version of Internet Explorer which will ever work on Windows XP.
It can serve beer in a crowded pub :)
If you don't spend any money, the State can print without creating inflation. Imagine that there are $1000 in the world, and you earn $450 of them. Then you burn all your money instead of spending them. The State can…
