Images are not that bad. Having witnessed myself a severe case of Malaria at the said border (Myanmar/Thailand), I can tell you that the guy in the picture might have been running just two days after the picture was taken (I've worked with

Filling bogus information, is actually illegal. Either ways, the National Commission on Data Processing and Liberties is your friend in the story (CNIL in French). They go to great length to regulate access to your data. There are several c

That's funny. On my resumé, I always word it as "C++/Qt" because C++ with Qt is no more complicated than Python for most things (well at least it was so a couple of years ago).

I work in a place where people don't use spaces and don't use empty lines to separate logical groups of lines. It's a real pain for me who is a code format junkie as our code ends up being an ugly pack of unrelated crap that's really hard t

No matter the quality of the paper, it will eventually decay. If you can still read your book from 1640 that's really great but realistically how common is that? There are a lot of environmental factors that affect paper duration and in man

Well, download a dump of Wikipedia and be done with it. When you say "still around", you should know that digital bits have the potential to be around forever while paper books require a lot of efforts to keep around just a couple of decade

It sure had his signature because after all he is the executive but it doesn't mean he had any power to pull it off nor to shut it down. I think that at those levels and in such companies, investors are really pulling the strings. In other

I think they just want to add more coupling between the two platforms. Sure enough, Twitter could write such a platform on their own but perhaps it's more time-efficient to just buy legacy technology and adapt it. Even more so when you get

I believe Facebook has features in place to let users target groups of users when posting. Perhaps School and Parents' role is to guide/teach children in our digital mess. School has no business checking people's private things though. Pare

Well, that's the Op's opinion and here is yours. Your point of view differ, deal with it.. why the intelligence thing? That's certainly nowhere close to being intelligent.

Any idea why they don't mention the nationality of Hector Xavier Monsegur? His name sounds like Spanish or French but it could be otherwise. In the end, it's confusing and I can't really get a geographical idea of the Lulzsec thing.

It's a Thai character that stacks on top of consonants. It really doesn't have any meaning if stacked more than once. Chrome on Linux will show only one such character. Firefox on Linux will put them all on the same line with a sketch of a

One of the common use case is not addressed: groups. You most certainly don't want all your team-mates to get access to all the passwords stored in there. Another very common use-case is for storing/downloading SSH keys. More field types wo

I think it's reasonable to assume that Adobe wants to kill Flash on GNU/Linux, but can't yet do it for Chrome due to some engagement with Google. If this is really their intent, they are going to have much more trouble justifying a kill ope

The Netvibes platform has made a strong shift toward brand and social presence monitoring some time ago. I was more surprised then than I am now.

I'd expect most european countries to fall in the same category. Actually, I'm surprised it's not illegal in the US.

I wouldn't say it's related in any way to the alphabet in use. Take the English 'a' as an example: skate and car produce two different sounds out of the same letter. Alphabets transmit words, much less so sounds.

It's illegal to hide your pregnancy from your employer. If you do so, you simply don't get compensated and expressly give the right to your employer to put the contract to an end.

My opinion, exactly. I'm slightly less harsh regarding Germany though. The biggest problem of Europe is probably that it's unfinished. Now, its institutions should be completed quickly to prevent further degradation of the situation on the
