Comment: This is about the cpu gpu? (Score 2) 116

Without checking the source, i bet it is only the cpu/gpu/power thtat is getting lower values. It is the old intel story again. First it was the atom cpu that was supposed to be super low power. However they forgot to mention you needed a chitset along with it for the video networking pci that was not so super savy with power.

Now the cpu/gpu is super power savery. But the wifi/display/battery/2g/3g/nfc/audio/cam/gps might still drain your battery in 3 seconds.....

Comment: Resistant bacteria. (Score 1) 221

The hospitals here are already asking in their long list of questions if you are living on a farm. In that case they might have to consider you carry bacteria that are resistant to multiple antibiotics. I already heard about cases of these people not getting a bed in the hospital , because the extra quarantine bed that are required for people carrying Multiple Resitant bacteria are not available.

The problem is then shifted to measuring lines of codes produced to measuring co-operation scores. The Lower level mananager will then optimze their processes for the optimal coorperation scores. And you have new problem instead of solving the other. And no good manager will start to kick out talented people because they fail on something that is not their main business, and do their job "ust good enough"

Most project work with business goals that have to be solved within a plannable period. That is what you manage. Stepping outside this planning to do some hard to justify incremental optimisation is hard to justify if you have a big stacks of others tasks in the queue that have higher priority.

The linux model is not the ultimate solution. Look what happend to reiserfs (v4) after the main man reiser got arrested. That is not something that MS is letting happening to any of their OS components.

It is even possible that the advertising api just is not (yet) implemented in the microsoft client. The requiremnets for ads, counting and billing for them are different than for videos, where you ust want to count the views for completely (far less billable) reasons.

Google will require to move them in in a no skippeable way into the main stream to solve this.

Somebody uploaded best-sellers to the store. It is like some john doe uploads the (chinese) Dan Brown books to iTunes, and apple get 30% of all the sales.

Too bad there are so many anti-chinese sentiments here. But this is really a case of chinese seaking part of apple making a boo boo.

Note that in AmericaN law would allow up to $150,000 per infringment, the chise case was for multiple infringements, but the article does not state how much.

You know, there was some security firm that told there were no good UPS , and if someone turned this switch **CLICK **

Their main IT was down for 2 days...and that firm was fired and got hold responsible for the damages (I don't know if it stuck). Damaging someones systemes is never a good test, and will results in costs, that someone got to pay.

Analogy police alert.... if someone cuts your fences to prove the secury after that is not tight, they will have to pay for the repair of the fence. Not for the higher wall, but they will have to cough up the effort it takes to repair the old one.

No, If the original links would have been taken down, then they would not need to ask google to bring the index-link down. There are sites that are in foreign countries that are "slow" in processing takedown notices, so the link might still be effective.

Now why would google have outsourced the hosting of take-down notices to chilling-effects.org. ......
