When incognito mode is outlawed, only outlaws will have incognito mode. :)

I don't use Facebook. I am on LinkedIn but I never update anything. And I don't care. If an employer wants my years of experience they will take me as I am. If they are going to reject me because I don't waste time on Facebook, then I probably wouldn't last long there. Their loss.

The real question is, at what point do anecdotes become statistically important? How man individual stories do we need to hear before a trends start to emerge? Maybe there's nothing to it, but gather enough personal experience and at the least you will see if and where further investigation is warranted.

Can't think of a response the argument presented? Just resort to Ad Hominem attacks against the writer instead.

The use of Ad Hominem attacks are an age old trick to divert an argument, usually one the attacker is losing. The only difference between today and ancient civilization is that we can publish them more rapidly.

Fragmentation is just Apple's attempt to generate Android FUD. I've owned Android phones since the G1 was release in 2008. I've rarely run into incompatibility issues due to OS or hardware. Doesn't mean it won't happen. Just means it isn't as big a deal as Apple likes to see made out of it. Sure, if you break down the distribution by manufacturer, then Apple appears to be leading the world. Of course, someone should ask Gil Amelio how that analysis worked for Apple back in the 90's.

Can it generate a sub-sonic wave tuned to harmonize with a rock wall and cause it to crumble?

How about citizen's initiatives at a national level? Then the people would have at least one way of knowing their vote actually counts.

A friend of mine has worked installing automotive glass for years. Every time someone asks him, "I want a sun roof but how I do I keep it from leaking?" his response is simple. "If you don't want leaks, don't cut a hole in the roof of your car." I've watched the computer industry over the last 30+ years and if there is anything to be learned from history, there is no such thing a "secure" system. Wanna keep a secret? Don't write it down and don't tell anyone.

Another thing to break and cost thousands to repair.

Astrophysicists have been saying this for years. The distances are too vast and velocities are just too limited.

Apple, choose exclusivity over the larger market? When has that ever been a problem for them? :)

Hell, I'm still waiting for flying cars, art deco robots and my vacation home on Venus.

I used to have an old WWII "hack" watch (the second hand could be set to sync time accurately). It was complete with old radium painted face. That thing was tough as hell.
