Mind you the same applies if someone downloads a malware binary across an encrypted protocol

To inspect https traffic you have to force proxy it. Force proxying should be an effective measure to prevent multipath TCP as well.

Unfortunately that isn't enough, many sites copy unreferenced information from wikipedia without indicating their source. These sites can later end up being cited by wikipedia.

Especailly if you are new to a field it can be difficult to know who are the reputable sources and who are the not to reputable ones.

Interestingly even in places where companies are allowed to charge extra for taking credit cards to the customer very few do.

So you are getting the cost of taking credit cards rolled into the price whether you use them or not. May as well take the benefits.

Same reason anyone else does. They want/need to spend money on something now and don't have the cash on hand to pay for it.

Between a house and a pension pot I expect quite a lot of upper middle class people have a million in assets. That doesn't mean they have a lot of liquid cash.

A 6-core mac pro plus an apple thunderbolt display plus a high end macbook pro for when you are on the road could get to that kind of money pretty easilly without looking too suspiscious (assuming you look rich)

They did close airspace during the conflict first up to 26000 feet and then up to 32000 feet. Unfortunately that wasn't enough.

I guess they either didn't know what weapons the rebels had or didn't want to admit it for fear of advancing the rebels PR.

Lets not forget that Nokia was floundering before Elop went in.

AIUI corporate officers are given wide lattitude to do what they belive is in the best interests of the company. Otherwise you'd get a flood of lawsuits whenever a descision turned out badly. So you would basically have to prove that Elop did not belive that going the MS route was in the best interests of the community.

OCR can still be useful for search even if the accuracy is too low for complete conversion.

Windows mobile and windows phone are sufficiently different (AIUI there is some comonaility at the lowest levels but the user and developer interfaces are totally different) that they may as well be regarded as different platforms.

The questions are

1: will MS continue tying winRT to the windows store and charging people for the privilage of bypassing it?
2: will MS be able to extend/enhance winRT so that one app can give a good experiance on both desktop and mobile?
3: will the developers buy into it or will they stick with win32 to maintain compatibility with the massive installed base of older versions?

It's got an apple logo on it rather than a windows logo but if you run windows on your mac (natively at least), you will find it does act as a windows key.

Not all but certainly the vast majority.

The bigger problem with global shortcut keys is remote desktop tools, VMs etc. Will the global shortcut be picked up by the outer system? the inner system? both? (IME it's usually the outer system but I haven't tried win8 yet) what do I do if I want the other one?

The big problem with traditional shells is the lack of a clean distiction between data and code. This means it's very easy to write code that works most of the time but has serious security and/or functionality issues when presented with certain filenames.

AIUI the problem is that the H1B abusers advertise a position with a low-level job title but a high level set of requirements. In this way they can appear to be paying the prevailing wage for the "position" while actually paying a lot less than they would pay for a similarly skilled american.
