iPhones are for people with more money than brains.
I would be more interested in a correlation with intelligence. Or with tech skills.

1. repulsor beams are more energy efficient, so they are likely to be used first;
2. this device repels, so is kind of like a repulsor beam;
3. a true repulsor beam or tractor beam is gravito-magnetic, not sonic;
4. a true repsor beam will generate an off axis tractor beam of equal power, but with that power dispersed over a wider arc (most likely a full 360 degree dispersal in the plane perpendicular to the beam, with additional dispersal above and below that plane), so there is a small possibility of using that tractor beam for a secondary purpose. That is the most likely way tractor beams will be used.
I completely agree. If they were motivated to learn, they would have done still so on their own. That's the thing with IT, self teaching (especially when you already know the management frameworks and principles) is not only easy, but the most effective way to learn.
You are wasting your time. If the work is not there, they are redundant. Act accordingly.
(IAAL, but not your lawyer. See your own lawyer to make sure you do this right and don't risk a claim. I was in IT for 20 years before becoming a lawyer, including at executive management level, so my evaluation of that part comes from direct experience)
His statement might be right (and probably is) but there is no need for him to express himself that way. He's not a teenager anymore, he's in his late 40s and ought to be able to better control his impulses (or even be centred enough not to have them in the first place). His words would carry far more weight of he expressed himself more maturely.
Exactly. The shortage was of employers who understood the technical difficulty of coding, and were willing to pay accordingly. I am now in law, which pays better, but coding at any reasonable level of quality (so, better than offshore minimal skill code monkey ships provide) is more intellectually demanding than law.
In Australia, women are now in the majority In the legal profession, an outstripping men at the entry level 2 to 1. However, they are still a minority among barristers (who specialise in court work), who are required to be self employed.
In tha past few weeks I have been In a court with a lot of high school legal studies classes coming into the gallery. There the girls seen to outnumber the boys 10 to 1.
Me too. If the site is a news site, and there is no RSS, I either construct my own RSS using wget, cron and shell scripts, or just don't read the site. If
Use keepass2 Android with an InputStick. It looks like a keyboard on both the device and the desktop.
Actually it's JVM. It can run more than just Java. I have ported GCC to it as a target (fully featured for at least C and C++, including pointers, trampolines and long jumps). I only lacked standard libraries to make it useful.
PGP and OpenPGP are obsolete. You should be using S/MIME - that is where all the work on getting the process right has been going on, and for that protocol the set up is accessible in anything modern.
The Note series is designed to be a serious workhorse. A lot of the people who own them need the battery to last, so they replace it when the battery life drops below an acceptable level (for them). This is likely well before the battery "dies".
The non user replaceable battery and the curved screen are keeping me off the Note 7, not the exploding battery. I need a replaceable battery for the reasons above, and flat screen so I can add a case that protects the screen adequately. Both of these are about device lifetime.
Samsung is opening up an opportunity for another supplier. Hopefully one takes up that opportunity.
It does not use the address. It uses the 2nd, 3rd and 5th letters of the last name, 2nd and 3rd letters of the first name, date of birth and sex. For shorter names it pads with "2". You can fake it into reporting "name withheld" by putting a "9" in each of those positions in the name.
Going by the extracts, the agreement out to him might not do what he says it does.
There might be diverting in the definitions that changes that, but I doubt it. More likely, this guy is just being a jerk who is too cheap to pay a lawyer to review the agreement and advise him, even though it seems he has the money to do so.
From TFA, it seems that IFTTT has just gotten it's hands on done venture capital. One of the first things incoming venture capital will do is require regularisation of important ad hoc legal relationships (including making sure that all necessary copyright licences are in place), so this change would not be unexpected.
Some networks have been intentionally configured to send out RAs every 3 seconds because Samsung devices drop all IPv6 when the screen is off. This causes them to lose all network access (even IPv4) when the screen comes back on, until the next RA. Samsung broke it, they need to fix it.
It would of course be better if solicited RAs were not sent as broadcasts.
There are also many mistakes being made that demonstrate a basic lack of understanding, that cannot be attributed to lack of code review (my favourite example is email address validation code that assumes a TLD must have 2 or 3 characters).
