So it is okay to deprive generations of future servers of a guaranteed livable wage, just because the current one will be affected temporarily?

This expression is always evaluated, creating a new string object on the heap that has to be collected, whereas the format string one is only evaluated on demand (matching log level). That's why most logging frameworks go for the latte

A bit of googling would have helped, but the wording in the article is admittedly misleading. The third lane is not shared, but owned by one of the two directions, taking turns. http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/2%2B1_road

The mosquito problem is one of the aspects the Gates Foundation is working on to eradicate Malaria.

Talking about fostering independence instead of fighting Malaria is absurd. Malaria is a chronic diseased devastating to the productivity of affected individuals, and jeopardises their ability to make a living. Farming and homesteading soun

Both points have been made by different but well regarded philosophers, and represent different ethical schools. The court's argument seems to follow contractualism (e.g. Searle, see 1), and your objection is a consequentialist one, as

For a country with a wrong sense of grandeur, constantly showing off their military, it would be much more consistent to claim responsibility as a proof of their power.

But getting hacked by a couple of kids or a disgruntled employee sounds like you may have not taken good care of security, whereas getting hacked by a sophisticated, evil commie cyberarmy is something you could not have avoided. Who cares t

I agree with you, but you speak from the perspective of an doctor in an ER (and use medical terminology). In first aid, one would not put a finger in the wound. I would like to clear this up for laypersons: It's either direct pressure

That's a turbine powered RC plane, and, technically, an unmanned aerial vehicle, but it doesn't seem to fly autonomously.

The prevalent culture in medicine still assumes that people can do things correctly all the time. Contrast that to aviation where every interaction has been designed around the fallibility of human beings for decades. You can't change

Thanks for pointing that out, I upvoted you.

Discussions of cycle helmets are usually very one sided, focusing on head trauma and completely ignoring other kinds of trauma as well as the positive health effects of cycling. Wearing the helmet doesn't just add a certain amount of p

But navigation was a very small fraction of the video, much less than texting and tweeting.

I find absolutely no reason to believe those people have any sort of psychological problems. The guy writes eloquently and coherently. The arguments he makes are rational, albeit, in my opinion, not compelling. The question is: How much fre

I would hate to see that happen. In a project with a sufficiently good review processes, the investment of time for helping somebody contribute the first patch(es) will far outweigh the benefit, and amortise only for developers who stay wit

Great technical analysis, but poor choice of words. Why does the author deem it necessary to sensationalise it by using terms like conspiracy theory and conspiracy theorists ? Those are rather derogatory and loaded, but introduce no actu

What would be needed are not simple checks, but thorough research, which in turn would require reliable local intelligence. The kind one could expect the organisation responsible for ATC to have access to, as opposed to an airline based far

If a British service has had intelligence on that, they have failed to protect 9 of their compatriots by just sharing it with BA.

by konstruktor 12y ago
The people gathering that kind of intelligence are a secretive bunch. As a civilian, you don't "have" that kind of information, you are only provided with it when somebody thinks that's a good idea. If the British, Chine

It doesn't follow automatically, but given the specific limit, one would assume that it was deliberately chosen and includes an error margin. There's nothing wrong with flying at their assigned altitude, which was above the limit.

This is a consumer device that adds a smartphone as a single point of failure. There's a good reason why handheld or car mounted radios have been quite popular with NGOs all over the world. They're robust, reliable and simple. And

If somebody reverse engineers their API and their devices are being used illegally for mesh networking, the most likely thing is not a mesh networking revolution [1], but the FCC taking their devices off the market. Daniela's reply to

Technically, this has been possible for a long time, but it is not allowed for regulatory reasons, and those regulations are not just there because somebody enjoys being a killjoy. Radio transmission and networks are a complex subject matte

I think congestion is the main reason. If a transmission had unlimited range (hypothetically), the band would fill up pretty quickly, so it would stop being useful. Natural limits of signal transmission and power limits are what makes publi

You're right, that seems to be a very real regulatory risk for this product. Basically, this product is a cross band repeater between the ISM band and the MURS band. Just because the encoding is different doesn't not make it a rep

The "terrorism" and "national security" justifications aren't absolute either: They are, in the best case, a shorter way of saying "what the informed public considers the right balance between security and free

As someone from a country with very different resumes, my suggestion would be to be more explicit about this being about US style resumes. If you want decent rendering, you need to focus on one style anyway (too much variation), so just be

Independent of the ethics of this particular case, I don't think your argument makes sense: The filing was a necessary, while not sufficient, condition for this restraining order, so you can't deny responsibility by denying agency
