Care for a trojan with your unpatched hardware/software?
Lesser or two evils.
Definitely two evils here, HP and the unsympathetic, trojan lacing, pirate hackers. Though I can see how you might think they are one in the same.
Just a short while ago there was a Slashdot story that IE now had only single-digit market share. Which seems to be in stark contradiction to what is said in this story. Are we now saying those numbers were not really that close to reality, but we went with them anyway?
I think that story is largely overblown. Those statistics are gathered from their site (W3Schools), and their site only. All that really shows is that most users who visit W3Schools don't run IE. And that doesn't surprise me. Why would anyone that deals with web development want to use a browser which has historically not followed standards and caused so much heartache for the web development community to support? This article doesn't surprise me either. I thought the target was obvious.
Basically, since the year 2000, they’ve gotten pretty good at these kind of planned crises
Apparently not. If they had, the crisis would have been avoided all together. They would have upgraded by now.
Having experience with actual Russians with actual Russian high-schooling and degrees, I can safely say their education system is far better than Western countries.
In all seriousness, is it the educational system or the culture? I think we would have much better teachers, educated adults and test scores if we emphasized studying the core sciences and applying hard work instead of filling our brains with entertainment garbage like twerking and honey boo boo.
Do they have that nonsense in Russia?
