The suits now see that they are getting just about as much work done in 4 days as they were in 5.....time to lay off %20 of the workers!!

You mean, you take a value that is outside the range of the sensor and convert it into a lower value (normalization anyone?) that can be worked with!! My God man, it will be a revolution!!!!

Training your replacement is demoralizing ...... I had to do it twice before being laid off...it sucks. However, that having been said - it's not the fault of the guy replacing you that your company is going in the direction it is. There was no reason for me to take my aggravation out on the guy I was training, it wasn't his fault. Not always an easy thing to do. Just my .02

Well, I guess we can all guess what will be coming soon....... Will you be paying for your copy of Windows 10 with a check or credit card?

Security is important - that we all know. But, there must be a compromise between asset protection/control and unhindered availability. In a crisis, I wouldn't want my nurse/doctor getting the code to the drug cabinet confused with how many cc's/mg's or whatever is supposed to go into the shot that I'm about to get! Maybe biometrics would be a better alternative?

I admit that I know very little about networking, maybe someone more knowledgeable can tell me why - just blocking an ip that makes more than N connection attempts within Y amount of time won't stop a DDOS? Thanks in advance.....

one of these upgrade pop-ups causes a serious problem of some kind at an inopportune moment (dentist chair activity perhaps, or maybe air traffic control). These scenarios may not be the best example, but, you get my point. Will Microsoft be responsible for any liability at that point?

I haven't had my first cup of coffee yet, so, I don't feel so bad about having to lookup "quaternary ", "extant " and "mooted" this early in the a.m.! Come on.....admit it....a lot of you had to do the same thing.....

Sub 6 Ghz .... is that better known as 5 Ghz?

Excellent! This is the most accurate analogy I think I have ever read! Thank you!

I loved "Rage". I thought it was one of the best games I have ever played! I never understood why the game wasn't more popular than what it was. The "sniper" part was great...... In the words of who ever it was:...."Roll Em"!!

*sigh*

I agree! I like to increase the text size so my elderly eyes can actually read the print....and as a result the last word or two of each of the headlines is now obstructed by the comments and (what is it?...the share button?)....Whoever is in charge of the UI could you please put things back to the way they were?!

Thank you from a long time member of the Slashdot community.

With the .NET platform now being available for cross platform development I can't see how there could be a decline in C#. It's only been about 6 months since MS offered .NET for other platforms I don't think that's enough time for any valid conclusions to be made. Wait another 6 months to a year and then take another look. I think we will see an increase in C#/.NET reflected in those numbers.

 

I'm surprised the equipment is not removed by the authorities. They won't let you assemble in person, but, they will let someone setup and run equipment for projecting 'holograms' on the premises? I'm surprised!

In my opinion, this looks like a great novel approach to giving people a way of making themselves 'heard' if you will without all of the problems usually associated with a large gathering of indignant/angry people.

It will be interesting to see if this becomes more widespread

Kudos to the "Holograms for Freedom" organisation for creating such a unique platform for expression.
