But right now, it's a legal cat and mouse game for both sides. With DRM, it becomes illegal for the mouse to do anything but get eaten.
I'm not sure his evidence given supports his statement of "no correlation" between a state's Business Tax Climate index. He says the most business-unfriendly state is showing the smallest decline, while the…
It's only right if you believe there's no cost to your spying being uncovered. If you don't think there's any cost to being caught spying, I welcome you to try spying on someone, anyone. Then you can answer the question…
There's money in both places to be made. They're not exclusive.
My first game was 1 point. I tried clicking on the falling bugs and saw some numbers lighting up, but I didn't quite realize I had to click on the numbers at the bottom to 'prep' rockets. My next game was a much more…
The problem is not the HFT firms buying stock cheaply and reselling it for a profit. As the article points out the problem is investors placing a buy order, and the HFT firms seeing this buy order and snapping up the…
If computerized grocery checkout machines would stop halfway through the 10 cases of discount soda you bought to raise the price on the remaining 5 cases, then this analogy would be what the article is talking about.
It's also a problem if you're an artist that makes something 'close enough' to Mickey Mouse, and you don't have the resources to both fight the legal battle, and support yourself while your income stream is shut off due…
The article mentions that 'full control' becomes increasingly unlikely as you lose rotors, but partial control is still possible. You can influence how fast the quadrocoptor falls, reducing impact velocity or steering…
That is essentially correct, though the math was completely hidden. The justification for higher contract rates was because they were using that difference to subsidize new phones whenever you signed a new contract. So,…
As was already pointed out, the AP Calculus test has been designed assuming that you have a calculator to handle the 'easy' number crunching portions for you. The test is designed so that you still need to have a fairly…
I've lived in three metro areas, and only one had significant choices in provider, and that was a decade ago, 2004. I had the choice of three cable providers, and I was just on the edge of a local ISP's service area so…
Somewhat. Most people in the US only have a choice between the specific type of line they use (Cable, DSL, Satellite). There are typically only one provider for either Cable or DSL in an area, and you're not even…
Start the countdown to Disaster Area.
You should be able to. See the regular launching of "Sherlock" shows, and the multiple on-air concurrently. Edit: Though Sherlock does have some limitations. Elements of the Sherlock stories introduced after 1922 are…
> Just look around at people wearing headphones right now. Have attitudes really changed? As a technologist, do you see someone with headphones and think "progressive"? Of course not, you meerly ignore it unless there's…
Anecdotally, I've found it's quite common with alot of European ESL speakers. I have worked with quite a few other people from varying countries, and it's somewhat common that they end many sentences sounding like a…
Don't be alarmed citizen. They only 'know' about your movements if they actually look at them. Until then, they don't 'know' anything as long as it sits in their archives untouched.
And there's only one narrow failure mode where a dishwasher can actually fill up with water: If the drain is blocked. Any other failure mode (broken water heating element, broken agitator, power failure) still allows…
This would appear to be the same environment as the demos from the article. Note the 'Node' graffiti on the wall, and the general shape of the room. I'd really like to see a before/after comparison, to see what the…
No limitation on the clause is a big concern. If you write a public review 3 years later about how a product from that company sucks, that could be held as a breach of this contract you signed, and would at the very…
I'm an electrical engineer who has pared my skill list down to 'troubleshooting.' For my equivalent of a fizzbuzz, the exercise is to present someone with a potential failure (the light in the room is off) and ask them…
This is not true at all. Most gamers aren't rocking dual-boots, and most gamers are still comfortably running with just a single Windows install of various flavors. For a personal anecdote: I've been a gamer my entire…
Clapper was also in the unfortunate position of being legally required to lie: Refusing the respond, or deferring his response to a closed session, would have been evidence enough that such a program existed. Anything…
The gp isn't using the same definition of 'rich enough'. You're inferring that rich enough comment to mean "rich enough to live comfortably on and afford the things I need/want". Instead the gp is talking about a…
