HP should have attacked the iPad from the flank, just as iPad had done this with MS. The iPad has a shockingly poor printer story, and guess what? HP has the best printer story. People need to know why they need to buy a TouchPad, and the r

Has anyone here used Autonomy? It seems to be used in call centres to detect nuances in a person's words. What other type of data mining does it do?

Definitely not fly by night. This is why I was surprised.

HP couldn't solve the chicken vs egg problem. An upstart OS from an established company is still an upstart OS. With MS launching their Windows tablet in the near future, HP will have to run very hard to establish their positions before the

Very nice design. You can almost compete with the adult education colleges if you can get certification. By the way, the design is very nice.

The rich don't open tiny shops down town. The people who got looted were the hardworking poor.

I checked out Motorola's product line up on their website. It isn't very exciting. (I don't live in the US, so I don't know how much brand value there is).

No. The asian shops were targetted, just like in the LA riots. These are hardly rich, but the shopkeepers represented "model" citizens and what the ideal migrant looks like. The looters represent the reverse.

Peter, I believe the police will have to do some soul searching here too. In particular, the killing of the Jean Charles Menezes, and the way some members of the police force managed to get off scot free with the death of Ian Tomlinson mean

A plane can land and take off again. This is actually scramjet technology, which has very general applications beyond delivering a bomb.

There are two types of patent problems. One is Google sized, and the other one is patent troll business model. The Google-sized problem has large legal teams at each others throat. i.e. if a patent doesn't have sufficient novelty, Google ha

A better alternative may be to frame it differently If applicable, please enter your gift card number. This implies it is single use though. Another option is to provide the field when user is already very invested. For instance, h

In Australia, the telco Optus is offering a PVR service, to record free to air movies and play it back over wireless. The media companies are starting to scream copyright as well. I couldn't help thinking that the law isn't very well placed

The commercial theme vendors probably have a mailing list. I hope they'd contact their clients straight away. This is turning out to be a rather big hole.

I have a version that does this: function clean_source ( $src ) { // remove http/ https/ ftp $src = preg_replace("/^((ht|f)tp(s|):\/\/)/i", "", $src); // remove domain name from the source url $host = $_SERVER["HTTP_HO

I wonder if it would be better if he disclosed this to the theme vendors.

Is there any reason why a check on the extension wouldn't solve the problem? $fileDetails = pathinfo($src); $ext = strtolower($fileDetails['extension']);

interesting because it models the likelihood someone is going to reject a suggested person after the first few didn't work out.

no offense taken. This is the problem with defensive patents. A company would be remiss to their shareholders if they didn't deploy it offensively when things don't go their way.

Their share price has been going badly. Employee stock options are no longer an effective way to retain people, and they are losing long term employees to the likes of FB and G.

I'm reminded of PayPal's early days when fraud was a big problem (and probably costed a lot more than a trashed apartment). If AirBnB handles the risk well, it may well set up a high barrier of entry to other me-too enterprises trying to do

The difference between a hotel and a home is that while a hotel may be trashed occasionally by the drunk rockstar, there is nothing sentimental in the hotel room. Screening is not going to stop someone pathological from unleashing wanton de

As far as web frameworks go, wsgi is pretty low level already. If you want to do a framework, move to a narrow vertical, it might get more traction.
