From what I understand if you work at a gas station, you get a phone call and they tell you to change the price on the sign, right?

ZTE apparently paid bonuses to 30+ people even though that were involved in some kind of violation. I bet Wells Fargo well also pay the CEO and the board very handsomely.

>My Nexus 7 has a pop out cover, yet when it fell in a stream of running water, it never even shut down. Opening it revealed only two small drops of water. Plus, battery contacts don't corrode from a short exposition to water (otherwise, so would the headphone plug).

I have a Nexus 7 as well and I have no idea what this pop out cover means. Can you please help me understand? Thanks

Sorry for off topic but it is a difficult topic and goes beyond Wikipedia. I read on hacker news the complaints that many (even peer reviewed) studies are never reproduced because there is no incentive to reproduce/verify someone else's work. Also, I've read that the "sugar lobby" may have been behind previous studies linking eating fatty food with obesity. Given these facts, how do we create guidelines that allow original research?

If one person owns all the land, they (or someone they authorize) can boot anyone unwelcome. This makes life much simpler because you can sidestep a lot of issues and focus on what this really is: a pilot project.

That's scary of that's what is required of a ceo. You would either need to be an oracle and predict where the industry will go or you'd need to make the industry go the direction you're taking the company.

In my opinion, you don't even need Marx for this. Even Jeff Bezos reportedly said "your margin is my opportunity". So if some product is expensive without being scarce, it is probably being "protected" by likely unethical means (like copyright?) or an oligopoly (unions?) that keeps prices artificially high.

Sorry if this missed the mark completely. Would love to learn.

Why can't Linux use gpl v2 or later? Because Linus doesn't want to?

This is interesting. I don't have a routine of what I eat for breakfast. I just improvise every morning (: do people usually eat the same thing every morning?

We could still work from home and have time where we meet our coworkers? I read somewhere that gitlab is trying out something like this. I'd love to learn wrist they conclude from this experience.

Don't forget the English who recently promised Scotland so many things before the referendum and conveniently forgot them once they eeked out a narrow victory. Democracy isn't just about going out to vote. Easy to say but I feel like a hypocrite as well.

I'm OK being "instantly" terminated as long as you pay me for the duration of the notice period.

Or sugar because apparently we don't need fructose in our diet at all.

Sorry but nobody is for small government. Nobody is for a balanced budget. It is a farce.

We all have two piles: a. Things we want the government to do b. Things we don't

If you're for a balanced budget, you'll oppose current tax cut plans and demand government cut spending. The problem is of course where do we cut spending? Find me a dollar of "waste" and I'll show you someone who benefits from it. Can we please stop pretending?

I was one of the people who went ape over uac. It wasn't that uac showed up too much. It is that the devices were not capable of it. I think I've been vindicated by the subsequent lawsuit which revealed the vista capable vs vista ready fiasco. I mean literally the screen would go blank and there'd be no indication for up to about three minutes when a uac came on an hp Compaq laptop...

Think about it this way. I've never seen anyone complain about full disk encryption on an iPhone 6 or later. Do the same on a Windows machine with 5400 rpm spinning rust...
