The problem is that the 'foreign' policy is irrelevant. The 'foreign' policy is made to appear the state is 'doing something' while MOST of the problem has been in the country for many, many years. Most of the

I'm a big fan and user of Luajit, and as much as I understand the problem of 'trusting' loading files around, in the case of LuaJIT anyone using the API would be /crazy bonkers/ to load code from anywhere else than

Well, I don't like to reneg on a deal, and I'm already expensive. the 'service charge' is not something I'd like to see someone do to me :-) No the only technical solution is either to do the full fat VAT, or, play

That's exactly the case... I /almost/ been had last year, and I was only saved because the canadian company I worked for still had a remote small (nearly unrelated) office in the UK, so I had to re-invoice everything to them.

Cruel bit is, quite a few people who know quads and embedded mentioned that that projects just /couldn't/ work with the hardware they were specifying. The battery was wrong, the CPU was ridiculous for what they claimed they&#

Speaking of VAT, it's also fubar as far as I'm concerned. My small company is using the Simplified VAT plan, which implies I don't claim VAT on my expenses and costs, but only pay back 13.5% or so to the .gov of the 20% I cha

I love Crickhowell, lovely little town - I have a base not very far in Newbridge-on-wye. I love the idea too, we were just discussing how the .gov is trying to squeeze the IT contractor field, while at the same time still leaving the obviou

I did a single channel crossing on a hovercraft back then. never again . I'm pretty sure I'm an inch shorter since that trip. The sea wasn't terribly bad (by channel standard) but the journey was absolutely horrendous, fel

That's the scary bit, and it seems nobody actually groks that. Asks people, they are happy for their supermarket to track them, the utility companies to track them and as for the state, the argument 'but, I have nothing to hide&#x

It's very likely someone with access to ST R&D office lifted the entire IP here... I know for a fact re-implementing a MCU as complex as a STM32 would be an insane amount of work -- especially to make it IP compatible... So if I we

There is a lot of latency when buying a new car; it's likely that a lot of people already had committed, and perhaps quite a few called back their dealer and got as nice 'panic' discount... It's likely there will be a fa

it's not just advertising anyway. What makes me close the tab is the popup with 'subscribe to our newsletter' (on my first visit) or other shit that is supposed to force me to click it, so that they can validate that I'm

Sounds like a good idea to me. A lot less dangerous than lending your home away when you go on holidays! I do a lot of cooking myself (expat french, it's survival requirement ;-)) so I'm actually quite interested by that setup, es

Xvisor [ http://xhypervisor.org/ ] does that (plus many other things) -- I do like the virtio driver layer a lot; however in the case of Xvisor, you also get CPU virtualisation as well as IO drivers -- it's also portab

A bit limited, as it's only for 32 bits x86, something the topic doesn't mention. There is no example of supported hardware, so at first glance It seems it would only be useful on old hardware, or Soekris-like boxes...
