Is it feasible that facebook et al could detect an anomaly in the frequency and scattered source of the successful logins?

This sorta reminds me of the silly things people do with JavaScript.

It seems like teaching how to research and read about history would be better than short narratives about various periods.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haiku_(operating_system) seems to have a fair amount of docs on how their API works. Since it is an open source implementation of BeOS it might have some good information. BeOS was made with SMP in mind from word one.

One thing that might help is moving away from event loop based UI interaction, like we see in Windows. One effort in this direction was http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BeOS.

Rock climbing is the best thing I have found to both prevent and relieve the various problems created by long hours spent coding.

Is Osama bin Laden really in the same league as the Nazis?

Do these companies host and maintain their own DRM systems? If they do it seems like they would fall in love with anyone ready to provide a bullet proof 99.99999% uptime DRM solution.

I feel a funeral for a distant but important relative approaching.

I think all the math is based on the known costs of EC2 services at various rate plans. All the people posting dollar figures here and on reddit are drawing from these know costs.

What is wrong with mainframes?

The problems banks solve are the reason mainframes exist. Billions of data points that must be processed 100% correct 100% percent of the time. It seems wrong to demonize mainframes as old and outmoded.
