Hear hear! We switched from Debian to Ubuntu years ago on all production servers...there are some real polishes that make managing the servers that much easier. Yes, it can be done with Debian, but its already done on Ubuntu...

Oh yeah, the MacroMedia preloader (MM_)....haven't seen that since 2001....and they are seriously using tables for layout...

interestingly enough....
neorush@localhost:~$ apt-cache search popcorn
pd-chaos - Pd library for calculating various chaotic attractors

...well at least for the next 3-5 years until we decide to cancel this project.

Might be the car design, but even rain / road wash put a mist on it so it is basically useless.

The GPS in dash and heated seat trim level also came with a camera. Seat belts are always effective. The data on seat belt safety is overwhelming, there are a few other good comments here that outline how little backup camera's do to save lives.

Our rearview camera is completely useless about 70% of the time, as the snow and mud almost always have it covered unless you physically get out of the car and clean it off. But good thing for this, lets make cars even more expensive for average joe just trying to get by.

I totally miss the art of staring at a wall while running so that the people you are playing with don't know where you are...I do not mean this sarcastically...there really was an art to it.

Subtitle and multiple audio track support seems to always work....also xbmc really loves these files.

...and poorly written python sucks up server resources. You can't say a language is bad because there are people out there who don't know how to efficiently leverage it. The reality is it uses less power / network to say calculate an md5 hash in-browser than to send a json or a full http request to the server. Despite that "bulky" inclusion of Crypto.js

I'm kind of surprised that there is not one good comment about the benefits of javascript up above this yet. I mean you can off load sooo much data to the client cpu. With the latest in webstorage and the sqlite port to JS I can actually create a friggen database server running on the client. WebRTC and WebSockets are seriously about the change everything in the next 1-2 years....I'm curious how many of the above posts are done by folks who actually do web development? It is pretty much indispensable these days, and really pretty awesome, so get used to it.

How long before the market for phone serials are is just as big as credit card data. I would imagine this technology be jail broken in hours and then the bad guys can easily change phone numbers. Imagining being able to change phones in-between calls, or how about randomly using a stolen one...that said, I do feel moving this to software is a good idea. As long as I can switch carriers as easy as the carriers can switch it.

Computer Science: the study of the principles and use of computers. I would dare say that coding is a use of a computer. If it gets kids fascinated in it, it is the BEST way to start. I did not pickup calculus very well until later in life because we are only taught how to solve a paper problem high-school. But, show kids how you can use calculus to land your Kerbal Space craft more efficiently....

I would classify that reading a speedometer is part of learning how to drive. I agree the headline is missing leading. TFA (and summary) says they learned about the subject.
