It's implied that it will. I wonder if this is basically like having your own mini OnLive cloud deployment.

I believe the JOBS act is supposed to eliminate this requirement but it hasn't been implemented by the SEC yet unfortunately.

Yes, it was kind of a tongue in cheek statement alluding to the fact that both sides tend to support the spying programs.

I think the idea of an anti-spying super-PAC is interesting. One of the priorities I feel is informing people of just how dangerous these arguably illegal spying activities are. Funny thing is the super-PAC would probably end up airing comm

I'm guessing they don't realize much of anything related to the work they're looking to have done.

This sadly still happens. I remember looking through Craigslist jobs and legit companies wanting someone with html/css/javascript/php experience for $8/hr, kid you not.

On that point, I think some of the best action right now would be raising general awareness to the population, particularly the extremely negative consequences this could have on the nation. Despite what some may believe, I feel the US is s

Valid point. Conversely though (I'm probably over simplifying here) wouldn't this require some sort of secret instructions in the encryption software to send the user's key to HQ? Wouldn't said transmission be detectable

Would be neat for a project like this to go open source and accept community submissions. Not sure why the author of jsLinux didn't go that route.

Definitely looking forward to this as well as other new ES6 stuff. There's something else I feel I could use perhaps even more but I haven't seen it in any of the ES* updates. I'm a huge advocate of DRY and it bothers me when

That was my first thought as well. I assumed however they would all be Origin only but was happy to see that most are on Steam as well. I will likely not even bother installing the Origin only games.

I was thinking similarly. Like electricity, shut the light off when you leave a room, find the right AC setting that isn't too low, etc. I'd hate to move to a state of "close every browser tab I'm not actively using&quot

I've wanted to do the same with similar thoughts. I wonder if it would be appropriate to say, if the transit pipes get maxed out, the top residential users are the first to get throttled. So, yea run your server max all the time but du

Usually you can own a rifle or shotgun at 18 but you can't own a handgun until you're 21. Might vary based on the state too.

This is exactly what I wanted a few years ago while working on a GAE project. I had never touched Python but I knew programming and just wanted to know what the language had and how in basic terms to use it. I remember picking up a large bo

The warrants seem rather broad though as they're receiving the information for everyone whereas warrants generally target specific individuals or organizations. This seems more like a technicality but still goes against the spirit of h

Interesting. I'm a decently skilled web-developer in Ohio (but not middle of nowhere) and I'd say decent jobs are pretty scarce. I've recently gotten more into the local tech scene and started on LinkedIn but it hasn't revealed any SV like

Yea but cloud bandwidth and DC bulk bandwidth are really apples and oranges. I guess I just didn't like that the article seemed to be making it appear as if this guy is costing Verizon thousands because of his extreme bandwidth usage. Being

However, traffic most months is in the 30TB range. That sort of bandwidth would cost thousands of dollars per month in most colocation facilities Huh? That's about a maxed out 100Mbps line. I'm not super familiar with different DC pricing

Times change, I've seen this locally. In the US Midwest, various metro areas have lost population over the last couple decades. As a result, they don't need as much retail space to support the current population. Something has to give. The

Didn't realize cell phone theft was a big thing. Don't personally know anyone it's happened to. What value would a cell phone be to a thief? I would assume a theft would be flagged in a cellular provider's system for the given ESN and disal
