    I hope they were free, those things are way more expensive than an effective HEPA filter system.

    A simpler explanation is that some people will just "learn" (via googling) the basic SQL they need to get something done. This is not uncommon across all domains in our industry.

    The only use for cracking Xbox One would be to enable piracy That's not strictly true, cracking could also allow alternative os loading.

    Could also be an issue with speaker placement. Most flat panel TVs have a speaker pointing down or backwards at the wall due to small bezel flat screen design.

    Yes, this developer has 100s of libraries most of which are just code snippets. That was part of the criticism here, it looks like this guy is trying to take advantage of jr devs w…

    They fired the gun. Linux had to rework the FAT32 implementation in the kernel when TomTom got sued for not paying the Microsoft tax and lost.

    Interesting move trying to push snake-oil in a room full of SMEs.

    I had a similar question: can't these regulations be generalized? Or are we going to have these same problems in 10 years with a company other than Facebook?

    PXE booting Linux live media is fairly straight-forward. Grub/syslinux syntax translates pretty easily to iPxe (which is simply a different type of bootloader). You just provide a …

    Yep this behavior has been normalized by our industry, much to the embarrassment of everyone involved. Move fast and break (other people's) things?

    Is there a name for this type of reasoning? An extreme version is that sweat shops are more beneficial then letting kids starve to death. Can we try and improve the situation for l…

    That is a pretty big leap from just a single statement. I've noticed the same problem and I'm not in the medical profession. Many people don't have good judgement when given direct…

    Yeah, that's mentioned in the linked article as one of the common misconceptions.

    It's it just happenstance this reaches the front page along with the Oracle v Google blog post?
