   Are we going to have a movie about Norman Borlaug, Dennis Richie or Douglas Engelbart as well? What made the movie industry pick Jobs as the topic? I honestly don't understand it.

   Jailbreak the Internet? The first talk of the video link below goes in that direction giving some real ideas. Discussing GNUnet and Psyc2. Rather technical. "You broke the Internet. We're making ourselves a GNU one." by Chris

   Probably the real question is, after leaving a project can you be downgraded to nothing from Co-Founder? Here is Sangers collection of "evidence". http://blog.larrysanger.org/role-in-wikipedia/my-role-in-wik..

   Its quite fascinating that many are not aware of how much data their phones are revealing. In this regard this is a rather interesting and technical presentation on how to exploit such data and going a step further. "Terrorism, Trackin

   Does being bought by Zynga automatically mean that they will close it down for good? I don't think so.

   > Fukushima did not blow stuff into the atmosphere Well, that is actually not right. During the accident radioactive water vapor and other gases were released into the atmosphere due to the explosions. Its correct though that, most of it

   The dilution of the radioactive content by the ocean is probably high. Overall the risk is low for significant contamination due to the overall ocean volume. The issues are so-called hot-spots which cause certain fish to be extremely radioa

    The infamous Atomic Village problem, particularly Tepco's corruption is quite well known and paradoxically accepted by the society. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pGsYdDpUSzg (turn on captions)

    What is wrong with e.g. Dovecot/Postfix + Roundcube ? How would this be any better? Is this intended to be a "close as possible" gmail clone?

    Just a unrelated side note. Why does this page need to break my browser page scrolling via space bar (in Firefox) ?

    I'm not really an expert on this, so this might be a silly question. How is this better / different than frameworks such as Phonegap and Titanium ?

    Is there any site like http://todomvc.com/ comparing all these CSS frameworks properly?

    How does this solution measure up to hosting your own Owncloud or alike? Any upsides / downsides? I'm wondering because many non-technical people need a dead simple solution for this if you want to substitute Dropbox.

    I don't get this. Focus on a healthy, balanced diet and make sure you include enough variety focusing on plenty of colorful vegetables, fruits and nuts. Exercise regularly and take good care of your body getting enough sleep and enough

    This is very interesting, particularly since I'm working currently on a problem of turning shop addresses in Europe into Long/Lat. Anyone know if there are more technical bits and pieces somewhere?

    What I find mind boggling is the fact that Voyagers are not even at a full light day distance yet. Things in Astronomy are often expressed in distances of light years. Unimaginable vast distances away from us.

    Personally, I feel whats really important is that we focus on the Elephant in the room, namely the things which were released by him. It feels like we are focusing on perception and if he will be labeled a 'traitor' or not.

    Seconded. I'm also completely flabbergasted that she still claims to have known nothing of it as well as other high ranking politicians, despite the known involvement of the BND.
