Who do these corporate conglomerates think they are by trying to con inventors from their due? This happens all too often. These corporations love to lord their patents over everyone else but refuse to pay up when it is clear they not only

Agreed. I have no problem saying that Western culture of tolerance and inclusion and freedom is absolutely better than and superior to some of the other alternatives out there like fanatical Islam and capitalist/socialist China. Wester

I use it for unstructured document storage in json format. Then couple it with a liberal search schema that allows me to search on like every element. Need to test with the new riak search more but it looks good so far.

Unfortunately not there this time. Looking forward to Riak 2.0 talk. Search, and CRDTs in particular. I'll be in IRC #riconwest on freenode.

Oh, I did notice. The same prompt you get when installing any software. However, my user/password and the disk decrypt password are different passwords, no?

So I'm doing the upgrade on an mbp with filevault2. The installer "reboots" the machine and goes into the rest of the installation. But I'm never prompted for a disk password. So... how'd that happen?

I haven't even read the article but the title alone is pure hyperbole. The US has no innovation crisis. To borrow a phrase: If Europe would have built Facebook, Europe would have built Facebook.

What the NSA - and governments around the world - are doing is simply indefensible. By overplaying their hand, there will be technical solutions that will be unpredictable and exceedingly more difficult to pierce that will put real criminal
