No, it would be disgusting; you're showing both your age (young) and your gender (male). When you get a little more maturity under your belt, understand the interrelatedness of the world's problems a bit better, maybe…
There's a simple reason why machines don't get upgraded every 18 months; employees do not become more measurably more productive. Management caught on to this literally a decade ago - 5 year cycles are fine.
tired claptrap.
and to create billion dollar companies...
No... only 26% of the world's population http://www.internetworldstats.com/stats.htm
Many in the world switched pretty fast to all-the-time Internet; I'm confident that many can switch back just as fast.
Agree - the headline is "Wikileaks has really misled the public" -- they have. Unfortunately the comments are not focused on the topic.
Seems like a few are trying to apply civilian rules and laws to military situations. As Joseph Campbell said these soldiers are just playing out a role - the role of a soldier in war.How can these boys be judged by…
Looks a lot like another go at 'data balkanization' by Google to shield themselves from governmental intervention. Ironically the fourth item ("better protect against bulk data requests") could be an attempt to preempt…
I think grandalf is just calling out Google's incoherent policy on 'censorship' - if fighting 'censorship' aligns with our primary advertising business then we support it, otherwise we fight it. Wikileaks would not…
The parallel appears to be a gross misunderstanding of what sovereignty is and what powers are afforded to sovereign entities. It is naive to assume that governments operate under the same guidelines as corporations and…
love it!
I grew up washing dishes and eating the food off the incoming plates because I was hungry. I never, ever want this for my kids. Yes, I wanted to be rich, am now rich, and I will pass these riches onto my kids.
regulation on the Internet is a sovereign issue This is the key line - Google was foolish to press the sovereignty issue with one of the wealthiest, most powerful countries in the world. Now the precedent has been…
Not sure who is the target audience for this article - management? If so, this is exactly what they do, turn talent in cash. When a programmer wants too much money they are out - who cares? Hire another young, talented…
I invented walking and chewing gum at the same time
The big infrastructure providers such as Qwest have labelled this a 'Dream': http://www.redorbit.com/news/technology/1836098/fcc_set_to_a... Just won't happen - the population density of the US is too low.
The first of many; like all technologies, expect more of this as the internet is brought in line with the moral, ethical and cultural values of nations
Posing such a rhetorical question merely underlines the rationale as to why civilized society is not governed by young men in their twenties and thirties.
The correlation between individuals that have an extreme interest in a subject and those that obtain the highest degree in that subject is high. Yes there may be some outliers but when you are looking for these types of…
Given that only about 20% of the people in the world have Internet access, wouldn't it be rather surprising if 80% thought it was a 'fundamental right'?
Yes - glad to see now that two of the powerhouses (Microsoft, Apple) have aligned their products with the cultural and ethical values of their customer base. My guess is this will be one more way they will go after…
No, it's not particularly valuable. But it's short and sarcastic and these comments tend to do well, except when posted as replies to these types of comments.
You said it - they bought the ticket, now they can take the ride. Is Arstechnica really claiming they didn't know what they were getting themselves into when they put up a free online news site? The terrible irony is…
Or Google trying to exert corporate hegemony over the US government in an attempt realign public policy for its own purposes.
