These journalists, along with most people outside the tech industry, fail to see the overall picture. 4 out of 5 of the largest companies on earth are tech firms, and none of them were even close to that position 10 years ago. Software runs the world and tech companies are the single largest driver of the modern American economy, making the overall pool of companies that may go belly up at any given time larger. Public consciousness just hasn't caught up to that fact yet since it happened so fast.
The purpose of publishing a public MD5 sum of a software release from the developer is to prevent tampering with an image. If I download an ISO of Ubuntu and check the MD5 value, and it doesn't match what Canonical says it should, then it's been tampered with.
It means you just don't truly care about your work. There's nothing wrong with that though. Take a step back and evaluate what you'd truly wish to be doing with your life. When those things are aligned, endless motivation is the byproduct.
It's scary to think that in 20-30 years nearly the entire available housing stock will not be covered by rent control. My landlord wanted to raise my rent 40% in one year here in Oakland until I pointed out the laws. Eventually the entire middle class will just be landless peasants again, allowed to live wherever the rich say that they can.
>except in US and maybe some EU countries, the price to build a Skylake system is higher than the speed benefit it gives compared to Haswell (usually at most 10%, frequently less...).
Honestly, even in the US I don't think it's worth it. I thought about upgrading from my Haswell i5 and the benchmarks are actually lower on a single core. Unless you truly need the Hyperthreading there's no point in upgrading.
Except those keys could still easily be vulnerable to Heartbleed style overflow attacks. The only real answer here is hosting your own service behind your firewall the same way people do with Github.
Honestly those numbers are most likely almost entirely automated bots. G+ is popular with content mills to get their page ranking up. Think about it for a moment, do you know ANYONE at all that uses G+ for anything?
Except it has a range of 75 miles with a 3.5 hour charge time, making it a completely useless waste of money for most people. The problem is that other car manufacturers are just sticking EV drive-trains into their existing cars, and hoping for the best. It's absurd.
This is absurd. Do you seriously think that Tesla wont have every single Model 3 sold the moment it comes off the line? People were waiting in half mile long lines for days to pre order a CAR.
I only needed to read the domain name to know that would be the case.
