If you can't uphold the law as a cop you would lose your job. Laws don't just magically appear, right? By the time they pass as a law the cop is just doing their job. We didn't do our job as voters and the correct action now is to "take

Some cops are crooked so screw them all? This happens in every profession, not just law enforcement. Edit, to the poster below: There have been many cases where a man and women have sex and the woman later claims she was raped. Try to find

Sorry, they didn't "target" the AZDPS and there were no good intentions involved. They are vultures and I'm guessing one of them that lives nearby cracked an insecure wireless network and stole some shared docs.

He's referring to the kids cracking anything and everything for the "lulz". There is no greater good and it's far from funny. If caught they will be behind bars for a very long time.

It's probably a great price for most dev shops but leaves a gaping hole for companies who have many small projects.

And then it's $25/user/month!!!

I agree. My small company has many 1-2 week dev efforts that we'd like to have on GitHub but simply can't afford it. I've tried creating a "small project" repository and using different branches to host the different projects but am defin

Do you have a source? I'm not saying you're wrong but it seems crazy that Apple makes more revenue off of iPad covers than all of the app market.

Well I thought it was a decent article with a sensational headline. I don't know any real .NET developers who are "enraged" nor does the article say this.

It may not be as large of an issue but it would still be an issue. I know several people who no longer rent movies due to how easy it is to pirate and watch (before it even comes out on DVD).

Well I've used modern frameworks and it's still far from running exactly the same across all browsers and OS's - especially if you'd like to use CSS3/HTML5. It's still a major pain in the ass to do something as simple as center a div verti

Seems to be down, anyone have a backup? HTML/JS/CSS has been the worst UI experience I've had, I'm interested to read how this has changed. It's gotten increasingly better since jQuery was released but still feels like pulling teeth workin

Good point, but it can only be said of certified auto mechanics. I don't know the percentage of auto-mechanics that are certified and tested to know "why" but I'm guessing it's less than doctors (100%). Either way, it's a pointless argumen

Sure doctors "fix things" but that's an oversimplification of their jobs. It's like saying rocket scientists are like construction workers because they "build things". There is a vast difference in the knowledge/schooling required. I did

by watty 15y ago
Of course doctors aren't scientists, but comparing them to a "technician" is a horrible analogy. Doctors go through intense schooling and have a very deep understanding of all parts of the body. Your analogy fits more closely to a nurse,

Ouch, 14% for 10 years? Not for me but I could see it being a good strategy for majors with low starting salaries.

Are you suggesting the article from "cultofmac.com" is slightly sensational and bias?

It's clearly not about which one runs better, has the better development tools, or best support across browsers and operating systems. It's about Flash being (semi)closed, requiring a plugin, and being owned by Adobe.

You know what doesn't suck? Having the option to run it when I want. I don't use it often but there have been several instances where I was able to access web content that iOS users could not.

Really? I love the touch pad and use my CR48 daily - what didn't you like about it?

I think I'm a forward thinking fellow but I don't see developer tools moving away from traditional keyboard (and usually mouse) environment for a long time. This seems like a slimmed down Windows Media Center layer powered by HTML/JS just

I'm sure there will be some kind of a store for these dashboard apps. It's really not that different from a new skin on sidebar gadgets, is it? They're developed using HTML+JS and distributed through an online store. This UI looks great

I don't think anyone here is taking delight in his judgement, where did you read that? It seems like many posters here can't comprehend why a human being would play Russian roulette knowing that they have two children and one in the womb.

I don't mind it when paired with a unique product name but do find it boring when paired with an every day word, iPhoto, iBook, iPad, iCloud. What's worse is that this one uses the 'i' and 'Cloud' together... my Apple fanatic marketer is g

That analogy is terrible. I know a few non-technical people who own and operate an Android phone with no problems. You could hand one of these "mere mortals" an Android phone and an iPhone and they couldn't tell the difference.

I think if the word "app" is proven to be generic with prior use, "app store" shouldn't be able to be trademarked. "Kleenex" is a unique word with no meaning prior to Kleenex, not so of an "app store", completely different case.

I agree music is subjective and his results are biased. However, it's safe to say Google's attempts are terrible.

I don't know, it seems to me that businesses and schools would have little use for these machines. I have a pilot CR48 and there's no way I could have used it as a primary machine at uni and I can't think of one employee in my company that
