Three reactors are affected, and two plants, Fukushima and Onagawa. I would say that an earth quake and tsunami is outside the well defined.

Then compile it with llvm (if you absolutely must have GCC specifically), llvm is the new default compiler in Xcode. The link above has binaries both for clang and the GCC front end. Xcode 4 is still a pre-release, normally Xcode comes with

It's a ridiculous argument, first of all that $5 would deter anyone, secondly the clang/llvm binaries are available freely, which is the default compiler in Xcode. http://llvm.org/releases/download.html#2.8 GCC is freely available in sour

Yes, but the contest really test the ability of a hacker more than the weakness of a browser. It's hardly scientific.

Of course it's not that simple! I did not mean to imply that. By the same token as it's not as simple as, he/she wasn't able to produce an exploit.

Theoretically that may be, but this time Chrome won only because the contestant didn't show up. "The third browser to be tested was scheduled to be Chrome. However, the contestant registered to attempt the attack did not show up, so the bro

I question the metric used in these contests. Reports always makes it sound like someone just walks up completely unprepared and hacks a machine. ”We had to do everything from scratch. We had to create a debugging tool, create the shellcode

I wonder if Xcode will still be part of the OS X install disk, I hope so.

Xcode is an IDE, you can still get the compilers as both of them are open source. http://www.opensource.apple.com/source/gcc/gcc-5646/ http://llvm.org/releases/download.html

Apples GCC is available for free, or llvm/clang. The $5 is for the IDE. And this is for the preview only so far, as far as I can tell.

I don't think I agree with that. Usage outside of what was mentioned is possible with the apps running on the tablet. Pens can already be bought as accessories.

Big deal. It's an embedded device just like a gaming console, that some people now use to do things that previously was only possible in the PC domain.

Yes, I'm absolutely sure that I don't have Rosetta. It seems like an oversight on Microsofts part to require it for a universal binary, 3 years after PPC was continued.

No it doesn't, I have it installed here and I don't have Rosetta. System requirements on the box says nothing about Rosetta and there's a big Universal binary icon on it as well. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Office_2008_for_Mac#R

You got to ask yourself how many PPC apps there really are that have not got an update and been recompiled for Intel by now. The indication would be if they have manually downloaded Rosetta on Snow Leopard.

That definitely makes sense, but on the other hand it doesn't answer the question if they took a detour. Nice picture by the way, thanks.

Apparently the SSD in the MBA uses the same Toshiba controller as this Kingston drive. It doesn't seem to need TRIM but takes care of garbage collection by itself. http://www.anandtech.com/show/4010/kingston-ssdnow-v-plus-10...

It has nothing to do with the hardware. Apple gives access to a sales platform, similar to let's say Amazon. They charge for the use of that platform. And are now preventing someone to use it as a mere "springboard" to somewhere else. Nothi

Linkbait indeed. It seems like a pretty common tactic on some blogs. I find it mildly disturbing since the same blogs often look down on trolling, when in reality, an argument could be made that they are actually part of the problem.
