Reality check: over here in Germany, the legal minimum is 24 days per year. As a developer, you wouldn't take a contract below 28 days (but you also won't be offered one). 29-30 are common. My previous company allowed an additiona

He doesn't have any burden of proof, especially not to random people on the internet. He does have to make sure he flies safely, but that's his concern. Relax and enjoy the show. :-)

No. Many are, especially higher level courses (ie, above the Bachelor level), but not nearly all of them. Some lecturers try to hold their lectures in English even though they speak it very poorly. Pretty much all lecturers will happily tak

Completely useless: 1. None of the ~ two dozen websites I've bought from in the past year supports it (and those are already technical shops). And most importantly, Amazon doesn't support it. 2. None of the people I've wanted to send money

Yes, but that's probably not what calciphus meant: the problem is that now apparently anyone doing a startup creating some random web application (using their tools pretty much exactly as intended) or whatever and making (or dreaming of mak

I have a T430s. It has both the keyboard backlight and the thinklight. I had an R500 before that had just the thinklight. I very, very strongly prefer the keyboard backlight for three reasons: 1. no reflections on the keys 2. part of the th

No it [most likely] wouldn't. Read the manpage.

It'd teach them not to run random commands they found on the internet, what rm does, and to make backups. Three valueable lessons. That is, if it would actually work: modern rm implementations have a special case for /. Read the manpage and

Sorry for the late reply, and sorry, I'm not in the UK. I'm using UAVP-NG ( http://ng.uavp.ch/ ). It's open source, there is a custom operation system (NGOS) and half a dozen hardware revisions and also a few side projects such as a 4x-BLC.

Seriously, running a VPS is not that difficult. The "ratio of providers supporting Ruby to those who support PHP" is quite irrelevant: just pick one of the providers who do support Ruby. There are enough of them. No, it seems more like yo

Balancing props is a very real concern, but for another reason than efficiency: unbalanced props cause more vibration and lead to reduced image/video quality due to the rolling shutter effect (image looks wobbly). That being said, many peop

No, thats just stupid. A good solution would be a guest WLAN that is, for example, on a separate VLAN. There is no reason to force people to use the slow and expensive cellular network -- both your employees and the people who actually ne

What if I don't want to sell my shares for $13.65 but hang on to them? Can Silver Lake just set a $13.65 value and force me to sell at that value to them?! (Assuming I had shares, which I don't.)

I disagree, actually -- according to speedtest.net we are both in the 1%. A 5Mbits upgrade to a 20Mbits connection is significant. http://imageshack.us/scaled/landing/11/speedtestga.jpg (edit: does anyone here have a faster connection to

Really? I watched that one (I was there...), and I found it absolutely uninformative. Just two whistleblowers and their lawyer, but not really anything new and or at least a good story. And one of them seemed bitter because his better sur
