That's an interesting article, but is it grounds for an appeal? Or could it be seen as an instance of jury nullification?

I'll have to look into it, because with my habits (97% of the time in a wifi zone except for the car), this would be perfect for google maps and google voice when I am in a car or out of a wifi zone. I've actually been very happy with vario

It's a rather self-defeating view of the 4th Amendment that suggests that, because the government could easily gain access to a piece of data, that data must therefore not be private. The government can easily get access to most data. Goo

If the suspect had a screen lock, would that create a reasonable expectation of privacy? Yes, I think so. If the message was just displayed there, and the phone is not in the person's pocket, I don't see any more privacy for that than a p

If some people expect phone calls to be kept private, they are wrong. Their expectation doesn't change reality. The phone call itself is private. GSM Cell phone calls are encrypted (is that still unbroken for most people??) Recording is

Savage reasoned that cell phone contents are deserving of Fourth Amendment protection against unreasonable searches and seizures because people generally keep them on their person at all times. "Text messages are often raw, unvarnished, an

I think you're both wrong! I like the hardware of the SGII I have, and I would prefer the hardware of the Galaxy Note, or the Galaxy Note II. But also, remove TouchWiz, and still the Galaxy Note II has some very nice and innovative software

That's an excellent point. While it will definitely take some sales away from the original Makerbot, it will also definitely increase the size of the entire market, all of whom will now have Makerbot knowledge and be eager to see what Maker

$1200 is pretty sweet compared to $1800, but I am already concerned that someone making copies is already behind the curve compared to the original inventor in terms of the innovation I appreciate. Cf. cheap PCs to the ones you specify in y

It seems dumb in the same way that vertical integration is often seen to be inferior to horizontal integration. If for instance Twitter is doing this to support Posterous, a tumblr competitor, this will probably harm Twitter more than it wi

Imagine tweeting what you ate for lunch, only to have it show up at dinnertime. I believe this is what the author means when he says the value of twitter is in realtime delivery.

How do you determine what position a story is in? I will say the mysteriousness of the front page algorithm, the seeming difficulty in getting an interesting story up there, adds to the concerns discussed yesterday about HN being a not so f

That's a possibility. The FARK thread is here http://www.fark.com/comments/7259728/Stitched-together-by-a-... and you're correct, he doesn't say that's the original (and it does explain some of the differences between the two) but he does

A guy at FARK took the publically released "self-portrait" of Curiosity and "stitched" it together to correct it. I am not sure what he did, but it looks hugely better. Original: http://www.nasa.gov/images/content/675130main_image_2331_94

There is nothing I can find in Soghoian's two posts that are any sort of criticism of Patterson, the security expert. It seems to be a huge and false claim of Wired's that there is any criticism of Patterson. Soghoian does criticize the rep

Yes. The first phase of Atkins is this "induction" ketogenesis phase. My guess is if you follow the diet rigorously, you don't need the strips at all, but for me at least, it is nice to have a external confirmation that I am in the ketogen

For the past month, I've done something similar, just following Atkins. I've monitored my calories using myfitness.com so I know my daily caloric intake has varied between 900 and 1400 calories. I've monitored whether I am in ketogenesis w

That photograph of them on the edge of the crater is wonderfully dramatic. Makes me wonder what instructions they had, precautions they took, preparations they made to make sure they didn't tumble in accidentally.
