Generally this sort of cases are dismissed in court because of lack of evidence. The same way that woman needs proof of a sexual assault, a man needs proof that she has done damage to his name and reputation so he can file a civil lawsuit a

1) Uhm that is exactly what I said. It's common practice to compare Android as an OS adoption vs the iPhone adoption rates. Then when people do the same for Apple and add the other iOS devices, then articles as the one in the OP are born. R

So it's alright for people to inflate Android's numbers by using all the phones, tablets, and e-readers when comparing them with the iPhone as was done some time ago, BUT when Apple adds the other iOS devices to the party (which off course

This is not punished with jail time most of the time, but it easily becomes a case of defamation of character, which the person in the story could have easily pursued IF the event had clearly damaged his reputation in some way. If he had do

A good point you make with such comment is that getting him fired from his job and the possibility of completely screwing his life in check with what he actually did do?

I'm sure that you're correct in this matter and it is common knowledge that it is more likely that a woman is telling the truth in such cases vs a man being set up. That being said (and take this with a grain of salt because I'm not stating

I'm upvoting you since I believe the question has some merit and does have to do with the discussion. Anyways, I've made no such claims, but you have to admit that it is as easy for a woman to completely destroy a man's life with such alleg

While I don't condone at all this kind of behavior on behalf of men, I have also seen the other side of the story on various occasions. One specific incident actually comes to mind. A friend of mine had been dating a woman I was friends wit

Thank you kind sir, I also agree that Martin was in the wrong, and that his actions after the fact where also douche like. All this could have been avoided if Zed had been classy enough to rise above his 'anger' and instead of being condesc

I'm sorry man but the person initially belligerent was Zed with his remarks about class and his hostile approach. Martin, complied with that Zed asked, and tried to explain his reason, his intent, and why he thought it was ok. Zed again res

by sp4rki 16y ago
For starters, I'm not justifying anything Martin did, as I never said he was right in any way, don't try to put words in mouth. As a matter of fact, I agreed on the following: 1) Zed has every right to complain due to his copyright and the

by sp4rki 16y ago
Two things: 1) It was not plagiarizing, it was copyright infringement, and they are both not mutually inclusive and are completely different. Martin didn't appropriate the content or idea of the book and called it his own, he publish the st

Why are a lot of people missing stuff like this: "have some class and use your own words and write your own book" and this "Guys like you are the reason I stopped doing Ruby"? I agree with Zed that the idea was borderline useless since both

Exactly, I went back to the old Skype a day after trying the new beta. I just couldn't get into it. I do think that the Skype chat on a mac and the whole calls interface could use some work, but the contact list was perfect IMO.

But almost all browsers have a PDF viewer plugin, and in general they're almost always terrible in some way or another. The problem is that PDF's are almost always very long documents, and a lot have embedded images, which results on the pl

by sp4rki 16y ago
This is a welcome addition, since the new Skype beta is really a whitespace monster, but honestly? The thin messenger style main/contacts window is WAY WAY better. I don't want to have a full screen Skype app that gets in the way, I want so

I really don't understand what the big deal is with PDF support. If I click on a PDF I'd rather it download to my computer and gets opened with the appropriate application, rather than using developer time in a feature that feels out of pla

You have to understand one very important thing. Recruiters are the email advertisement newsletters of the real world. Someone (or yourself) places your email in a bucket and boom, you're getting this great offers, so yo go check one out. T

You're looking at this completely the wrong way. For starters: who is Google to dictate what other companies do with their own data It's our data, not Facebooks, not Google's. Google is providing a benefit for Facebook and it's users and

A big part of the reason that many of the biggest sites websites on the net now are made in Php, is because it was the most viable and popular option 5 years ago. In that time both Ruby and Python have made leaps of advances in using their

Yeah let's put it this way. Say school has no vacations so they used to get 52 sales a year, in which of course the clubs with a precedent of needing more money took precedence. Now say they now get 104, or hell... 156 sales a year because

by sp4rki 16y ago
Oh there where limits in place. The school allowed one club to do a sale per week. That's one sale per week regardless of the club, and clubs that had a precedent generally took most of the dates allowed to do sales. After this, the school

The question is, is it really worth 2000 dollars? Hell is it even worth the 700?

by sp4rki 16y ago
I wouldn't call this an abuse. It made it so all the clubs where making more money, so everyone was really profiting from this.

I'm under the impression that this hack didn't really mean other clubs got less money. On the contrary, it seems to me that thanks to his actions (which resulted on the restrictions for all clubs being softened) caused all of the clubs to m
