It's that jealous police officers like to arrest attractive innocent people.

Sure....that's bad, but how many football fields is it?
I would argue that a guy who writes code is a programmer. That is, someone who programs. Perhaps the term you're looking for is computer scientist?
Problems in NP are problems such that there is an algorithm where the first step is guess the answer, and to then perform the verification in polynomial time. That is not to say that a nondeterministic algorithm necessarily does this. There is no reason to believe that quantum computers can solve NP-complete problems.
An open standard is not the same thing as an open app store.

How is this hypocritical? Jobs makes no assertion one way or another about how Adobe should handle licensing flash to developers. He's just saying "If you want to see something in my store, it may not be flash." You may think it's a bad idea, but bad-in-your-opinion and hypocritical are two different concepts.
So, now I have to buy another piece of hardware if I want to connect a computer to that TV?
It's not about wanting linux. Anyone who wants linux has it somewhere. It's about having it on the PS3. I really wanted to turn my PS3 into a media center that I could turn on when I wanted to watch some anime or whatever. Forget, for the moment, that I bought the "slim" version which never supported linux in the first place (grumble).
Also, the PS3 is significantly more powerful than the average desktop machine, ESPECIALLY for its price. Forget about graphics. Just as a machine to crunch numbers.
If a bug in your UI can possibly allow exploits on the backend, then your software design system has a bug.
160% of the market share that FF has. Not "160% of the market share, period." For instance, if FF had 10% market share, this would give ie 16% market share. L2read.

If the probability of an algorithm going into an infinite loop is zero, then it can't go into an infinite loop.
Statisticians tend to draw a distinction between "random" and "stochastic". Random means from a uniform distribution - every possibility is as likely as every other. Stochastic just means drawn from a distribution.
Commie.
I looked at that FAQ, and it says that Google employees will never have access to your email unless access is explicitly grated by your admin. It also says, in the same answer, that Google employees may delete things which violate their ToS, which seems to directly contradict this (how can they delete things without write access, how can they know it violates the ToS without read access?).
Last I checked, programs were way better at virus scanning than humans.
The joke is so clever that you get modded insightful for talking about how someone got modded insightful for calling it clever.
Hopefully we'll see some recursion here...
