People with asperger have social problems that they blame on a disability.

Code is never 100% bug free, no matter how smart the programmer, how well tested the code and how many million hours it's been running without any problem.
The only type of developer willing to agree to a "fix-bugs-for-free" contract is one who is either (A) stupid of (B) lying.
Facebook options weren't worthless.
Why else did it cause legal battles when they were watered down by the company?

Getting involved starts simply with making "first contact".
Any half-decent project team will gracefully accept anything you have to offer and pretty soon you'll find you have quite a lot to offer.
Because with all the extra money you can do better marketing, promotion, sales and even product development.
If you can make 4x the money by giving away half, it's still double the money in your own pocket.
Ofcourse this does not account for giving up more subjective values such as control over your own product and being able to "not be evil".
Or simply put; selling your soul does make you rich.
But it's a tremendous battery life for a desktop computer. Try seeing how long a desktop computer lasts if you unplug it from the charger.
Ofcourse this new type of phone-connected watch is just as much a desktop computer as it is a watch, so that comparison is just irrational..

Adobe claiming copyright over photos color-corrected with Lightroom?
To most of those password checks I've encountered, "P@ssw0rd" is very strong, but a thousand random digits is unpermissably weak.

Easy enough to test experimentally.
Just disable the Wifi on one of two routers (or disconnect the transmitter on hardware) and see if it makes a difference.
How ever could concerned citizens have solver terrorist cases if they had no special website to report such concerns?
Oh wait... they just reported it like you'd report any other concern to the police.
For one, they'll probably report some statistics for "dozens of reports of possible terrorist threats each day".
Secondly, the mere existence of the reporting tool means people get reminded of terrorism more often.
Finally, "Where there's smoke, there's fire"; this is the smokescreen (bad pun, sorry).
No, you use 9-1-1 for real threats involving actual terrorists.
This is for increasing the level of fear in citizens in order to make privacy invasion more acceptable.
and of course the UK actually *does* have death panels.
"The Gateway Pundit" the name pretty much makes clear this is NOT objective news. Reading just the headers of their articles confirms it. How about a reliable source to support your incredible claims. Do you seriously think UK citizens would accept such "death panels" without atleast massive protests that would have hit reliable news outlets all over the world?
Science may someday discover what faith has always known.
