Micro SD cards are already quite a bit smaller than postage stamps lol.

Presumably the person doing the spoofing would be piloting blind since their GPS would be effected just as much as the target's GPS?

If so then it seems like GPS spoofing would be of limited usefulness unless you just wanted a ship or plane or whatever to get lost and expend all it's fuel in the process.

Good code, it seems to me, isn't so much a reflection of someone's skill level as a developer in-so-much as it is a reflection of how much they cared about that particular project. Designing and architecting takes time. If you're a good dev but all you're aiming to do is write something that gets the job done here and now without regard for maintainability or scalability or anything... well that's how you get bad code. It seems to me.

Five days ago North Korea was moving their missiles and they're only now getting them in firing position? How long does it take to ready a missile? Seems like the US had patriot missiles halfway across the world in South Korea in less time than it's taken the North thus far.

The Sarah Palin email hacker should have used that line! "Mrs. Palin has no privacy expectation". Might have saved him from his misdemeanor conviction of "unauthorized access to a computer".

If they're wanting experience with specific products seems to me like they should be looking for people who went to a community college or other associates program - not a four-year university. In theory, four-year universities.are trying to prepare you for tomorrow - not for today. They're supposed to be more about the theory behind EE and not the immediately practical application of it.

I think you forgot to properly attribute that quote. It's from Babylon 5: 1x04: Infection.

According to this article, "Apps would also have to go through a "service based delivery" system such as Windows Marketplace to install, reversing a years-old ability to download apps through the browser or other sources.". If that's true, I don't care how much of an improvement the interface is - I want no part of it.

Among other things, that would require you buy a data plan. As if PDA cellphone's couldn't possibly be useful without one. Sure, sure, you could just buy a dedicated PDA, but those are becoming increasingly difficult to find (certainly Palm doesn't make them anymore) and something does have to be said for device consolidation. I'd rather have a single HTC Touch Pro2 in my pocket than trying to stuff a cellphone, a PDA, a camera and a GPS unit into my pockets.

Further, even if you do have a data plan, requiring all apps be sold through the Windows Marketplace will give Microsoft an unreasonable amount of control. Remember Google Voice for the iPhone? Apple denied Google the right to offer it through their App Store because it competed with their own product lineup. What's to stop Microsoft from doing the same thing?

And what about apps that are no longer maintained? There's an SNES emulator available for Windows Mobile and a TI-89 emulator available for Windows Mobile. Both, near as I can tell, haven't been maintained since Windows Mobile 5 or so. If those apps didn't work in Windows Mobile 7 because the API changed, that's one thing, but it would be unfortunate if the only thing preventing those apps from being installed was the fact that Microsoft wanted more direct control. It's like being rejected for a job interview not because you're skills were insufficient but because you didn't put the right buzzwords on your resume to get past the regex HR was using to filter out resumes. Because you said PHP on your resume instead of PHP5.

But then again, it seems unlikely Microsoft would let anyone offer an SNES emulator or TI-89 emulator through their app store, even if they were to be actively maintaining it, on the basis that it encourages piracy or some such.

They are providing free wireless for at least one hub - a Continental Airlines hub - Houston Bush.

What if you get > $10.00 interest on a bank account over the course of a year? Would unemployed people be better able to collect unemployment benefits if they emptied their bank account right after losing their job?

FTA:

For instance, Tennessee's laws state that in prosecuting the offense of sexual exploitation of a minor, "the state is not required to prove the actual identity or age of the minor."

How can you prove that the person in a picture is a minor if you can't figure out their age? For a toddler, it's obvious, but what about someone in high school? Summer Glau, 27, played a 15 year old in Terminator: The Sarah Conner Chronicles. Nathalie Portman was 18 when she played a 13 year old in Star Wars: The Phantom Menace. Sarah Michelle Geller was 21 when she played a 15 year old Buffy Summers in Buffy: The Vampire Slayer. There's a pretty wide margin of error if all you have to go by is a picture.

Exxon Shipping Co. v. Baker held that "a ratio of no more than one-to-one between compensatory and punitive damages is generally appropriate in maritime cases". In other words, punitive damages cannot exceed compensatory damages. If this were applied to copyright infringement, it would mean that the most any record label could collect per infringing song would be $2.00. $1.00 since that's how much it could be bought off of iTunes, or something, and another $1.00 for punitive damages.
