Everybody was wondering how they were managing to release stuff this quickly. This is how. It's not that they don't know how to build web applications, it's that building it solidly tak…

That's an interesting example since some of the most popular DEFCON talks on youtube are about elevator hacking, which includes pressing buttons that are right there on the panel

The main reason microsoft software was ever used in developing countries was because it was easy enough to pirate -- not something the company did "on purpose" that I'm aware of

>and this is a system that will take millions of years to recover (if it ever does) Like Carlin said, Earth will be fine, it's been through worse before. It's the people who are fucked.

I don't understand. If you're going to change it, why don't do the primary on the same day like any other country?
