Once this trick becomes widely know then TV manufacturers will see a spike in damaged goods after they've benefited for so long.

If you're a company with multiple locations and you send items between those locations then it shouldn't be too expensive to put some tracking technology inside to collect travel information.

This is really good. I'm fairly well versed in these topics already but I've sent this off to some friends who have only recently started their CS studies.

I feel for some companies this has backfired in the long run. Take for example Blizzard, a video game company. They used to have a perfect reputation but over time it has tarnished due to catering to the masses. World of Warcraft became mor

The mines are actually coming into another mini-boom. Our economy will do well. Politicians will ignore the environment.

I live in Sydney but 4 years ago I lived in the tropics. Sydney doesn't get close to tropical levels of humidity. It's a completely different type of heat. 30 degrees with 100% humidity is fairly unbearable for working outdoors. 4

I don't know how much it's self-imposed, but I imagine if 100% of the samples were tested and the evidence reanalysed then we'd be seeing a mass exodus from the prisons.

I have a really hard time trying to understand the mindset of somebody who is going to take advantage of a person for profit. I actively remind myself of this because I need to be aware of this fact when dealing with people who could potent

Someone else did though, so the 10 cents is paid in full.

If return rate hits 100% then it's a success IMO. Oregan has then successfully ensured that for every bottle used in their state that they also recycle one. Does it matter if it's a non-Oregan bottle?

I had my experience with this in 2006 or 2007. I was younger then and I was served a malicious ad on a video game website. This ad was only showing for 1 in every 1000 or so users, which made it quite difficult to detect back then. Ever sin

I'm still a CS student so I'm not quite yet ready to specialise. Late last year I went through the Gang of Four book on design patterns in software development. The patterns described in this text are widely applicable to most&#x2

Does anyone have any insight into if there are some good tips to be pulled from game design into the more broad category of design? I'm a CS student, and while I don't have any interest in becoming a game developer, I have an inte

If we develop a set of working scripts to indicate availability, then women will still go for men who are "bold" enough to deviate from the script and seize the day. It's a complex issue, and it's my belief that the trai

I'm a single man, I date, and it's confusing as hell. The examples given in the article are no surprise to me since my whole adult life has been peppered with similar events. Women who later tell me they wanted to sleep with me bu

I don't see that mass-produced cohort arriving any time soon. My city has 1 developer for every 3 jobs and it's getting worse.

As a non-American, this is something that confuses me about American culture. I see a lot of statements along the lines of "I should be able to do X if it only harms me" but people also sue for X causing them damage. If you play f

These companies spend a lot of money trying to optimise their profits. If the laws tightened up then they would simply try to exploit as much as possible within their legal limits. Mobile applications can make huge profits from exploiting h

I feel I'll be fine, this is the stuff I love. I'm incredibly interested in understanding how things work, to the point that I've considered changing my degree to maths/physics/compsci. With zero revision I could ex

From your perspective, what is the issue with a lot of the current college graduates? I'm a college student studying computer science, and I feel like I'd be ready to start work really soon. I'm also the sort of CS student wh

The compulsory nature of it is amazing. I had a gap year before I went to university, and when I checked earlier today I found that my superannuation from that single year is now worth over $15k. From a single year, I worked a manual labour

Thank you for the reply. I've only recently started becoming interested in cyber security, I participated in my first CTF late last year. I'm still very uninformed about the wider cyber security culture.

Here in Australia, we have a thing called Superannuation. Your employer is forced to put away a minimum % of your income, typically 10%, into a fund of your choice. Often jobs will come with up to 15% superannuation.

I don't find surveillance affects my agency. My decisions on how to live aren't affected by whether I believe someone is watching me. I'll say this as clearly as I can: I like targetted advertising and I like these companies

Not only does it hurt far more people than yourself, but a lot of behaviours defined as "only hurting yourself" have negative consequences for everyone. Take drug use, for example. Some people want legalisation under the pretence

I live in Australia, which has very relaxed gambling laws. I can walk into most pubs/bars in my city and find poker machines for example, as well as a sports/horse betting facility. There are huge social consequences to gambling.
