None of those 3 examples are commodities.

It was amusing that Sunrise was bought by Microsoft, but still could not connect to either of the Exchange servers I threw at it. Support basically just shrugged at me via email, rough translation being 'it works on my machine.' S

What is the appeal of this over the abundance of unsettled land in North America that does not need to be created from scratch? I guess building a wall sounds a lot more romantic when there is a ferry in the moat. Don't think for a sec

Cash is traceable, each bill has a serial number. Totally agree that cash is easier to use after theft, but there is a huge market for stolen vehicles. They can be taken to a chop shop or even just loaded on a shipping container and sent to

MSDN is not licensed for production, I assume you mean you're using it just for development and testing. MS Partner on the other hand is licensed for internal-only production use.

That's quite a jump to make... how does 12 IPs authenticating successfully translate to root access? We already know who root was, and it was a State Department admin.

It's not even remotely interesting that a mail server used (unofficially) by the State Department would be accessed from around the world... many of their officials travel constantly.

Having something like this accessible to harm reduction groups could save a lot of lives lost due to fentanyl overdose, which is currently epidemic in North America. On the other hand, groups switching to this method from traditional chemic

Reds are absolute garbage for actual typing. They're best for gaming or specialised keyboards like at a POS. Brown is best in my opinion, which is one I will vehemently defend by drowning out all opposition with furious typing.

But at the same time you would probably be comfortable driving a car worth $5000 a kilometre from your home.

>“It’s all about balance. We are the ones meant to be the air, not the earth,” Piorkowski said. “So you have this group who can travel. The purpose can never be to enable everyone to travel because that would create imbalance.” That&#x27

Just because somebody doesn't have a better idea doesn't mean your idea isn't terrible... maybe they're just honest. Seems like a great article to justify firing those who don't follow without question.

What I questioned is why the author misrepresented who actually developed the ENIAC through vague wording and omission. You can be wrong on the details and still ultimately be right. I wasn't trying to start a 'who has it worse&#x

I don't know if I should be disturbed or amused that you were willing to say "And if we're going to have a good ol' oppression-off how about blacks?" under your real name. It says a great deal about your motives whe

Programming was a 'women's job' at the time because men were intended for combat. It's exactly the same reason women were working in factories which, in peacetime, was traditionally a men's job. This is not to say t

Sounds reasonable... but how am I going to write an inciteful blog article about that?
528.
by DKnoll 11y ago
I don't disagree with the thesis of the article, but the creators of the ENIAC were given no mention and they skipped right to the 'computer girls' as if they were fully responsible for it's genesis.

Basically the same arguments as the book... just condensed. Slightly more bitter if anything. Comparing ageism to sexism or racism, as he constantly does, is a complete cop-out. He was 23 once... as I am now, and I'm in a worse econom

I'm about halfway through. So far I find the book to be an amusing send up of startup culture. A bit like an updated version of Coupland's Microserfs with slightly more factual basis. Although, I am confused by his condemnation o

That's a good alternative... didn't even consider Chromium. Thanks for chiming in.

Retroshare is desktop only, Signal is mobile first. If you posted a Retroshare thread, I might say "Not worth the time. Use OTR instead." Signal is also significantly easier to use, and to the novice appears to be any other text m

I'm disappointed, but only a little bit. Moxie has already given me secure communications and free text, media and voice messaging the world over so I can't complain too much.

Seems a native desktop app would be ideal... privacy-concious consumers might be hesitant to use Chrome.

That's clever... but a totally different situation.

That requires intent, same as the hate speech laws here in Canada.

Are there dishes from more than one country or ethnic group? If so, you now have a multicultural dinner.

It's best to avoid casually throwing around the word 'racist', but I'd probably go with naive.

If there is a ping pong table, rubix cubes just start mysteriously spawning around the office.
