Not sure what Intel contributes that they could change to closed source without harming themselves. Closed source doesn't make it into the Linux kernel and with very few exceptions doesn't make it into the Linux distros. I can think of few Intel product lines where that wouldn't be destructive to their market share.
Wow, you can click the link to my web page and make a veiled threat to dox me. I guess my estimate of your intelligence was... right on target.
The diagnoses were merged because the evidence had begun to suggest that they were different severities of the same ailment. If the evidence has begun to suggest that we're dealing with fundamentally different ailments then the diagnoses should be split accordingly. If not then you're shuffling names for the sake of politics and it's not a good day in science when that happens.
I've always wondered how well Slashdot's moderation system actually works. Thanks for giving me the opportunity to find out.
It is a mental defect to mistake popularity for trustworthiness.
Your numbers support a conclusion. Just not the conclusion you wrote.
Two words: Fox News. They're trustworthy? Yeah right.
I used to trust the Washington Post but they've made so many exaggerations and just plain errors in the last 5 years, and their censorship in the comments section has gone nuts. Earlier this year I canceled my subscription.
You don't need an excuse. Doing a U-turn when you see a DUI checkpoint is almost always legal.
You'll catch the cops' attention but the courts have ruled that solely turning around is not sufficient to generate reasonable suspicion of a crime which would justify stopping you. They might follow you a little while to see if you do anything that would generate reasonable suspicion, but if the cop pulls you over immediately he's probably breaking the law.
Bullets don't cause large Internet providers to suffer wide-scale outages. The failure to implement and maintain industry standard N+1 redundancy does that. Bullets can only cause component failures in a system that either is or is not robust to single points of failure.
They're programmed to avoid delays from high congestion.
Musk is a doofus. There's a reason NASA launches from Florida instead of Texas. Nothing east of Florida but a big, big ocean where no one and nothing is in the way. But could anyone tell Musk that before he built his launch facility in Texas? No. No they could not.
Are we quite sure it was illegal? That's what was reported, but doing a u-turn prior to a DUI checkpoint is not typically unlawful. If this was a pretextual stop to check for drunk driving, and it really sounds like it was, they might not have had the reasonable articulable suspicion needed for a lawful stop. It happens more than you think. And clearly the "driver" was not under the influence of alcohol or drugs. If they go impounding the car, the deep pockets who own it are going to figure out the legality right quick.
Agreed. And when an alleged recitation of facts makes one obviously erroneous claim, the rest become suspect.
Now, mind you, it is completely improper for the President to have set this requirement and it's likely the courts will strike it down. The power to set visa requirements resides with the Congress.
JPMorgan Says $100K 'Prices Out H-1B'
That's the point, right? Companies aren't supposed to bring in workers on H1Bs because they're cheaper than their local counterparts, they're supposed to bring in H1Bs because there _isn't anyone_ they can hire locally. That $100k fee will sort the difference right quick.
Personally I'm against H1Bs period. If you have skills we should be offering you a green card, not a visa that's as close to indentured servitude as we can legally make it. But short of revamping the immigration system to be more welcoming to high-skill immigrants, there's a logic to the $100k fee to make the H1B work as designed.
