Absolutely, I agree that taking a many-to-many relationship and reducing it to one-to-many would be simplifying it. However, I wouldn't say the US government acts or thinks like a computer programmer and we would see much more bureaucr

They previously acquired Gauges ( http://get.gaug.es/ ) but didn't do anything with it and resold it. Maybe they used parts of it in their recent repo traffic analytics?

Quick question how do you like jqPlot? Did you try anything like d3js? If so, any pros or cons of each? I'm currently messing with d3js for some data I have on my F150 for the past year. (Fuel, mpg, odometer, fuel price, etc). EDIT: I

Would Microsoft benefit from Nokia building an Android phone to help their argument in the EU over the android patent? They could argue that they are indeed using the patent in their own android devices and thus have a compelling argument t

I don't believe that's the point she is making. Obviously the distributor should be compensated. I believe her point is will 3rd parties that are NOT green lit on steam still be downloadable similar to Android's install f

You're right. I wasn't aware of the specific technical reasons only knew the power wattage difference.

It has to do with the amount of power usage and the return rate or mine rate of LTC/BTC. AMD seems to have a better ratio of coin per wattage. So basically just better bang for the buck.
