windows phone beats iphone
Authored by: designerfx on Friday, May 25 2012 @ 11:08 AM EDT
This is almost comedy. Windows phone beats iphone at first
glance probably makes people think windows is significant, and
misses the fact that android has the lion's share of the
market.

Not watching commercials is theft
Authored by: Anonymous on Friday, May 25 2012 @ 09:14 PM EDT
Now I'm worried. I always mute the commercials. Do you suppose
someone may report me, like a neighbor? I don't want to go to jail.
I also try to be good. Am I bad because I ignore the commercials? Is
that immoral?

American Tradition Partnership, Inc. v. Bullock
Authored by: Anonymous on Friday, May 25 2012 @ 10:56 PM EDT
I don't understand the basis of this SC decision. I accept that it may be
convenient to sometimes treat corporations as people when the law does not
specify otherwise, but where does that convenience become a right? Corporations
are not people. They are created by law. Why wouldn't they be subject to limits
defined by law? The US constitution says "We the People." Where do
corporations get inalienable rights? Corporations do not have a right to vote!
Why should they have a right voice themselves in elections?

Billions of API calls traversing Web, redefining “software”
Authored by: tiger99 on Saturday, May 26 2012 @ 02:16 PM EDT
All very good, but due to their use of the Footgun®™, Oracle are going
to see their share of API usage diminish. It is not a good move to alienate
developers. Meanwhile, others are finding that their business is flourishing....

Keep The Internet Open

It's not the other regimes I'm worried about, it's ours. As Naomi Wolf says In her book "The End of America: A Letter of Warning to a Young Patriot", there are 10 steps to creating an efficient fascist state. 'Control The Press' is No. 8. I count the Internet in that category as well. It's easier to close the pipe than to monitor hundreds or thousands of 'dissidents'. Opportunities for the abuse of Internet freedom are countless in any country. Laws and rules are for law-abiding people, not for criminals. Nothing the UN or ITU can do will change this.

10 Steps...

News Picks: Naked Short Selling?
Authored by: Anonymous on Sunday, May 27 2012 @ 02:20 PM EDT
OK, I understand naked short selling is selling stock without owing it and later assuming the price drops actually buying some. If the price don't drop then you declare a 'failed trades`. What I don't understand is how 'naked shorting` can artifically force down stock price and what are the penalties if any for these 'failed trades`?
