   Google is a massive global corporation, it is accountable to its shareholders, no-one else. 37Signal/stripe/github are all small "boutique" companies (Try asking your Mom/some guy from High school what github is) wh

    Sometimes I think the lack of Armed Police in the UK is a benefit as they take arming an officer with a lethal weapon is a serious matter and requires specific training/psychoanalysis. What possible requirement could the " Alcohol

    To reply to your tweet about this..... "UK government puts editor in jail for one of employees spying on a few dozen people. What punishment do they get for spying on a billion?" The Government are working within the law... the

    In same way you can be arrested for "going equipped" or banned from near sports stadiums for football hooliganism, it is rarely held up in court but a tool for the police to preempt people who are positioned to commit a crime. The

    Ninite Updater Pro is for SysAdmins, not the normal casual user - it allows for silent and remote install. I would be interested to know how you propose using Adobe flash updater to push out a critical security patch to 10k + enterprise use

    I don't think they would as most of the Power stuff is linked to AIX licenses and is fairly "unique". The offload of the x-series business is most likely due to the fact that IBM can't compete on price with the volumes which HP & Dell s

    So its the prosecutors job to decide what evidence is "questionable"? Words fail me. It is the job of the jury to test the evidence. The prosecutor puts forward his/her case with the laws which were broken and evidence that they think migh
