There is no third option. You can't decide after the trillion dollar industry establishes, to renege on FRAND

To play devils advocate though: What you consider "fair" licensing terms might change.

Maybe Samsung finds it absolutely fair that their patents should be valued higher, when Apple has 60% profit margins selling essentially the same product they do, made by parts they make, yet they only have 20% margins themselves. That hardly seems fair, does it?

And if you disagree about that, how would you argue that it is technically unfair? There is no doubt about Apple making a shitload right now. "Fair" is really a pretty shitty legal term, open for lots of wish-washy interpretation, instead of some simple black and white.

"If I had not explicitly signed-out of Facebook before visiting all these other sites, Facebook knows about it."

Even if you have explicitly signed-out of Facebook, the presence of the like button on a site allows Facebook to track your movements on that site. Their like button javascript reports back a unique login cookie that is not erased when you sign off of Facebook. Pressing the like button is a small part of its purpose. Its purpose is to track you around the web as long as you have ever logged into Facebook before. This was all covered here on HN months ago, when I first learned of it.
All true, but the idea that a good fraction of combinatorial algorithms that undergrads see can be replaced (albeit less efficiently) by linear programming is important. Not clear how classical CS curriculum helps to appreciate this either.
And after all, LP used to be considered an almost elementary topic before it mysteriously dropped out the curriculum (perhaps something to do with linear algebra no longer being compulsory).

Apple just asked for and got a full-on import ban on the Galaxy Nexus

Samsung has requested injunction on Apple's products in the past too. IIRC they were all denied. Motorola requested, and was briefly granted, an injunction on Apple products in Germany also.

when one side plays hardball, don't be shocked when their opponent hits back

Absolutely. More power to them. That's how the game works. Nothing will change until the rules of the game change. This brings me to the whole 'X sued Y first' issue which is kind of silly too. We know when lawsuits were filed. We have no clue what happened privately or what legal considerations were made behind closed doors. The second Nokia sued Apple the race was on industry wide to start legally testing patents. The best way to do that is to sue someone. A good offense is a good defense right? Everyone is going to end up suing and eventually licensing to everyone. That's about the only way this can play out. At some point down the road, if it hasn't already happened, you're going to have Android OEMs suing other Android OEMs too. It's kind of pointless to paint anyone as good guys or bad guys. There is no option here to be a conscientious objector. Google seems to have tried that for a while until they wised up.

The subpoena wasn't just for the public contents of tweets; it was also for any and all user information for the account, including email address and an anything else twitter might have collected, including IP addresses, physical location, browser type, etc.

In addition, the court ruled (yet again) that the defendant had zero standing to challenge (or even know about) the subpoena since it was directed at Twitter not him. Which is kind of terrifying given the push to cloud storage for everything.
Nice title. Makes it sound like they are checking to see if the OS is Linux and banning based on the result. More likely they are just checking for 3rd party programs, assuming they are hacks/cheats, and banning, catching WINE along with the riffraff. HN needs less sensationalism.

How does Android development compare to iOS development?
Decay of nuclei is a completely random process, and you really don't want to use it to define a time-scale.

What you had in mind is the SI-definition of the second, which reads (http://www.bipm.org/en/si/si_brochure/chapter2/2-1/second.ht...):

"""
The second is the duration of 9 192 631 770 periods
of the radiation corresponding to the transition
between the two hyperfine levels of the ground state
of the caesium 133 atom.
"""

The details of this effect are a little more complicated, but it boils down to the fact that you can measure the "angular momentum" of your nuclei when you have them pass through a non-uniform magnetic field. Particles in the one state are deflected differently than particles in the other state. And when you irradiate a particle beam in the F=0 state with the right frequency (9.2 GHz) you can very efficiently swap many particles over to the F=1 state. By adjusting your frequency sufficiently to find the maximum rate of flips, you can can tune for the exact 9'192'631'770 Hz.

The cesium particles have not decayed, in principle you could run forever on a certain supply of atoms... even though in practice a Cs-beam is produced on one side, at a hot filament, and dumped to the other side of the clock after passed through the apparatus that performs the steps described above. They will be disposed of when the lifetime of the beam-tube is reached (typically 10 years or so with a few grams of cesium inside).
I used Wunderground for years, but in the past few months, their local data went crazy. They were emitting ridiculous data like eight degrees hotter than any other station. I reported the bad data, and I got back a form email about how great their "new" algorithms were. They definitely need some outlier filters to kill off idiots putting their thermometers in the sun over asphalt, or whatever was the problem. I looked around and, oddly enough, ended up using weather.com. I now have a morbid fascination with their record of the high for the day at some exact time...

The real skill in weather seems to be from WeatherBill, now The Climate Corporation:

Of course it does, everything infringes patents. You can't write Hello World without infringing a hundred patents.

Regarding all the suggestions to change search engines:

Deleting the Google search entry is not an action that can easily be undone, and it will have drastic consequences, such as permanently disabling suggestions and instant for omnibox searches. Creating an alternate entry with the same URL does NOT suffice -- you can't manually enable any of this functionality on the alternate entry.

If you're having this bug, I suggest NOT doing this. Either sit tight until we fix, or if you do create a different entry, KEEP THE ORIGINAL so you can switch back once the fix is out.

The bigger news here for me is that Diablo 3 runs on WINE at all, I've had very limited success with games on WINE in the past and never rely on anything that I run with WINE continuing to work long term.

Are these permanent bans and if so how do these affect other blizzard games that people might be using with the same account etc?

I would imagine the logic behind this is that WINE re-implements many of the Windows APIs and a common vector for game cheats is to run modified versions of DLL files that contain extra functionality to read "hidden" gamestate etc, so it becomes difficult to differentiate a cheat from a WINE lib.
It's crazy talking to poor or mentally ill people and seeing the huge problems minor things (parking tickets, misaddressed mail, etc.) cause them. Obviously some of it is inaccurate reporting by them, or failing to take advantage of readily available remedies, but the system also seems set up to screw them.

I'm not a big fan of a paternalistic government, but even that would be preferable to an abusive one.

ScreenB.in, short URLs for screenshots
Hi all!

I've been looking for an app like this for quite a while to no avail, so I decided to create it.

ScreenBin (screenb.in) lets you paste a screenshot from your clipboard directly into your browser (Chrome only) and instantly receive a short URL to your screenshot. The designer on my dev team has demanded this for a couple of weeks, and I only recently found the time to make it at a hackathon I attended.

This is my first time posting to Hacker News and my first live open source product so I'm too sure what to expect, but would love any feedback on the app and suggestions for features and improvements.

Todo's:

- Google Drive support, so I don't have to host all the images!

- some UI for cropping (but that might get in the way of the simplicity)

Fun facts:

- It's named after its spiritual predecessor (which was a downloadable application found at screenbin.org).

- Only works on Chrome as it allows me to extract the clipboard data. Hopefully other browsers adjust their security standards in the near future.

Of course no response at all is by far the most common result, but just because they don't respond within a day or two doesn't mean they aren't interested. They get a TON of emails...

One solution (a little awkward) is to keep a warmed-up JVM in the background, and have your scripts send the arguments to it. Some trouble to setup, and of course the send-code can't be in Java... but it is lightening fast. I'm not sure why this isn't a more common practice: if there was a standard server and (non-java) client, it wouldn't be awkward.

Which sounds perfectly reasonable, but it's not necessarily the truth. As another commenter posted here, this has happened before with WoW users [1].

They claimed that they tried and failed to replicate the failure, but anyone who's done any kind of software development knows this is far from conclusive proof.

A post mortem on the logs of the banned accounts is absolutely necessary. If they're not willing to do that, they should at least refund the accounts.

Two possibilities:

For power users, if they forget their pw, they lose their coins. Period. That's the option I would use, as someone who never lost an important pw thanks to my use of redundant password safes.

For other users, when creating an account, coinbase.com could email them a "key recovery" file (or mail them a physical QR code), with instructions to keep it permanently stored in a safe place. This key recovery file would be K encrypted with a unique IV and a key known by coinbase.com, who would not keep a copy of the key recovery file. This would satisfy all my requirements: coinbase.com would be unable to steal/access the users coins, and an attacker merely getting access to the key recovery file would be unable to do anything with it.
Is the corollary from this that Diablo III installs a rootkit? Or is that not necessary for checking for 3rd party software?

I can get the same number of Fusion blades from Amazon S&S for within 10% of price, with free Prime shipping, compared to their $9/mo deal. There's no way they're better than Fusion; at best, comparable, but I think slightly inferior.

The $1 razors suck; opportunity cost of using them exceeds the money saved. Plus, shipping, so it's really $3/mo.

The $6/mo is a Schick Quattro equivalent. You can get 4 of those for $1-$1.50 ea; same price or less.
