Whenever a headline asks a question, the answer is always no.

yep. The only thing that's presented as a difference is a regular periodic update cycle, which is not really necessary as Mac security vulnerabilities are few and far between at this point. The other difference is code auditing, but given that OSX was re-written using UNIX ( designed as a multi-user OS from the ground up ) as a base, I don't think the criticism applies.

One only has to walk down Via dei Fori Imperiali in Rome (a 6 lane boulevard right through Ancient Rome) to understand to what extent Italian Governments (in that case, Mussolini) are willing to pave over their rich heritage in the name of progress.

It's a little understandable even, given that any big construction project in Rome is held up by years every time a ruin is uncovered, so that archeologists can study it.

Does this mean that TZ database is back at elsie.nih.gov?

True, but not really a very good argument against the merge.

Not necessarily SF only. Zed blocked me from twitter because of some comment I made that I don't even recall. I actually like him, mostly.

Actually, it explains the trouble I've been having with double posts in my twitter client. To whoever wrote this, Thanks!

When they came out with the original timeline for integrating QNX onto the BB, I was excited. It was ambitious, but not impossible, and QNX is a fantastic OS that never found a niche. I was hoping RIM could revive it and give it the presence that I always felt it deserved. It looks like they may instead put the final nail in it's coffin instead.

The original timeline might have worked, it might have caught them up. Now that chance is way less

Anytime the headline is posed in the form of a question, the answer is no

a 15lb flywheel. Weight is death on a bicycle. As soon as you take that thing up any kind of incline it's like trying to dead-lift a barbell.

awesome. 17 years of Linux admin work (yes, I started in 94) and I agree with every word.

He was actually in 21st place at one point, which, because three drivers out of a field of 24 had dropped out, was last.

It was an amazing 20 or so laps.

Nice to see Bram Cohen coming to the same conclusion I did. Having two branches constantly cross-merging is a bad idea, no matter what SCM you use.

I tried these instructions and got bupkis.

I say: "Shhh! Don't tell anyone, then they'll all want to do it!"

RunwayFinder replaced tens of thousands of dollars of hard-to-use maps and charts with a great free google maps interface. FlightPrep deserves to burn in hell as far as I'm concerned
