Bradley Manning, for one. He was locked without trial and in almost complete isolation for years. I'm sure others will come to mind later, I just can't think of any right now.
[...] he would have been better served if he had just replied;
"I'm rude, you're not, let's leave it at that."
But he didn't.
How do you read this part then?
For example, you work mostly through Greg. I don't think either of you *planned* it that way, but it's likely because you guys work well together.
See what I'm saying? People are different. I'm not polite, and I get upset easily but generally don't hold a grudge - I have these explosive emails. And that works well for some people. And it probably doesn't work well with you.
And you know what? That's fine. Not everybody had to get along or work well with each other. But the fact that it doesn't work with you doesn't make it "wrong".
With all the posts RPi s used in so many outstanding projects, it's certainly refreshing and newsworthy that someone is using it the way it was designed to be used, and running the software that it was designed to run!
Sorry, guy who used it to monitor sharks, you are just not as cool.
So, with that in mind, I finished up editing Slashdot for the day and sat down to watch some of these new pilots.
Nice try, but we know you were wanking. Next time say you're sky-diving, designing the next Mars rover, or banging a supermodel. At least we know that there is someone doing those things.
After all, your solution is coercion.
No, our solution is give the right of determining the salary to the people that actually pay said salary.
The DC-X was completed in 21 months by a team of 100 people, at a cost of around 60 million in 1991 dollars.
And it only flew for some test flights never actually reaching orbit. The design may be great, but it is not complete. So we have 100M as an estimated cost for a prototype, how much do you think the full project would be?
