I think the problem was charging $ 40 to get to iTunes. Either you give the full catalog or you don't but it shouldn't be something you can purchase.

Just two ideas on top of my head: Through auto updates you can make sure that you get the backdoored version or you can have an exploit within the software to allow "silent" remote updates (good luck finding that). So well... Eith

I did the same switch, but didn't experience any specific problem. Actually I thought it was better done than Dropbox and had fewer sync issues.

And what would having the source code change? Unless you host the data yourself, if you don't trust Wuala there is no guarantee the binaries you use are built from the source code you have.

Big Corp, that are known to have actual big data are also hardly known for being early adopters... It will take much more time than expected to see data-driven companies and I actually think the finance industry will be the first to do real

It's difficult to predict what (large amounts of) money will do to you. When you start earning a lot, you obviously buy yourself and loved ones lots of gifts, but if you're a well rounded individual it's just a phase. Power will make you fa

I'm disappointed by the top comment as well, it's pretty lazy to say "100% is not possible, therefore I will not answer your question". Your client isn't technical, he doesn't know. He's got a problem, it's your job to make sure you provide

I don't think it's the goal. This kind of energy is more interesting when you don't have access to the grid. It could also be used to fuel an engine.

I appreciate that these are old rules, nevertheless, I have the following comments: don't use // comments; some old Plan 9 code does, but we're converting it as we touch it. We do sometimes use // to comment–out a few lines of code. Doesn

Nice to see you are serious about testing, however this PR page has got something that hits me as strange: As a rough measure of the effectiveness of our simulation testing framework, Quicksand has only ever found one bug. To me, this mea

I think the big problem is that most "NoSQL" engines are naive in their approach, thinking that the people at Oracle, Sybase, IBM, etc. are stupid. Very few people need scalability beyond what a regular RDBMS can do. So yes, RDBMS have limi

Perhaps you should try to actually build a company before talking about how you would organize it. A journey where your preconceptions would be challenged, I am sure.

The same law exists in France, it's called "Droit à l'image", which is the exact same meaning than "Recht am eigenen Bild".
