You have to be the signal stronger than the tower. And you need enough channels to talk to all those planes.

Sure you can. Key Holders, and shift managers earn this part time in limited shifts. When I worked at Radio Shack I was in High School and earned because of commission. My ExGF did well because it was a part time job and she was Very over q

I made $19 an hour at Radio Shack in 1997. I would hope things have adjusted since, but My exGF made $26 an hour working at Ann Taylor. You can totally make $40k a year equivalent in retail.

Article fails to mention you would need a HUGE transmitter, not just your phone. They wouldn't let you get enough transmitter on to the plane to do it. And from the ground you would have to have a strong directional transmitter with enough

You didn't state your current salary. If you are making $40k and want to make an extra $30-50k the answer will be very different than if you make $250k and want to make an extra $30k. My suggestion. Hire a maid. That will save you 8 hours a

Changing the sentences adds bias. Maintaining the author's intent is important. Generating news highlights from lots of sources might be cool as computer generated content. But rewriting an author's story in new words is not adding value it

Not bad for a weekend, but http://www.tldrstuff.com does a much better job. Especially where the sentences don't break on . like where J. R. R. Tolkien is concerned. And The TLDR Plugin works with HTML and on all western languages.

Actually it sounds a lot like Microsoft IAS. It also sounds like something having the right router and configuration would make unnecessary.

OpenSource is a vulnerability not an Asset according to #5. For small projects which few contributors I would agree but, for projects as large as OpenWRT and DDWRT and such, I don't agree.

D&B is in the business of selling your corporate data to marketing companies. They claim that they never share their data base in an automated way, and to protect this information, so that it is only human readable but it is in their be

More like they invent drama to cover their bad days. Akamai tells its clients when they are under DDoS, Akamai didn't really notice anything going on. CF just had a bad day and decided to make a story out of it. One other time when CF clai

This would overturn every video/audio/data compression patent. Every Encryption Patent. It would over turn every Google Search Ranking Patent. It would limit patents to physical things. Under that system even many physical devices would not

Straight up Lie. Talking with Google Engineers, and Amazon Engineers they say this is not happening. So unless someone picked a fight with CF, it is more likely CF is just having a bad day.

CloudFlare does about as much for protecting you from web attacks as a condom does in protecting you from a rabid pitt bull. In fact it might even make things worse, since CF can be tricked in to refreshing its cache of pages pretty easily,

You are horribly ill informed. Xbox Live, Hulu, all of those are at bit rates and quality roughly what a Sports offering would be doing, and work just fine. I'm not splitting hairs, you just have never worked with a CDN, or done any real wo

QoS of the network is not a requirement for IPTV. IPTV is a definition for Broadcast like experience to a Television display. Several "IPTV Named Standards" work over Multicast and require "IP Traffic Quality Metrics" this is not "QoS" PS I

Market cap, an "price to buy" are not the same. Anyone who has been through a purchase can tell you that. Why do you think Lucas was so expensive? Market cap is the price of the outstanding stock, and doesn't reflect the cost of the assets,

What planet do you live on? Even with $100B in the bank, you are going to buy A (1) content creator out right, and not the biggest. Lucas Films which has a few dozen properties, and a few hundred hours of content, went for $4b. It is a VER

Cable companies like bundles more than Content providers do. And Producers would like to cut much of the "pipeline" out of the picture. Shows like Firefly would have done much better in a world where consumers paid directly for the content,

Article fails to mention that when CloudFlare has issues, they present Captcha's to the Google Bot, and your site gets delisted. Also fails to mention that if the CDN gives you an IP that is the same as a Kiddy Porn site, or a pirate site t

The Sentence segmenter doesn't work that well, and rooting words doesn't work as advertised. Try Children, Families, Family, and complies.

I do want to step on their PR. This is like looking at an RSS feed. Try something like TLDRPlugin.com that actually summarizes content, and works with any web page, not just the few RSS feeds that some guy decided to include.

Rant Detection? You mean it checks if it was a thread on Hacker News and if it was, it flags the story as a Rant? :-) Actually pretty cool. I wish I had this for tech stuff too. Any clue when they are adding that?
