The issue central to the case was whether Microsoft was allowed to bundle its flagship Internet Explorer (IE) web browser software with its Microsoft Windows operating system. Bundling them together is alleged to have been responsible for Microsoft's victory in the browser wars as every Windows user had a copy of Internet Explorer. It was further alleged that this restricted the market for competing web browsers (such as Netscape Navigator or Opera) that were slow to download over a modem or had to be purchased at a store. Underlying these disputes were questions over whether Microsoft altered or manipulated its application programming interfaces (APIs) to favor Internet Explorer over third party web browsers, Microsoft's conduct in forming restrictive licensing agreements with original equipment manufacturer (OEMs), and Microsoft's intent in its course of conduct.posted by DU at 10:17 AM on May 18, 2011
They deserved to get broken into 3 pieces or so, but due to internal discord they managed to squander their efforts to leverage their monopoly advantage to attack other markets; just like IBM way back in the day.Internal discord? You realize that the DOJ actually had people involved with Microsoft to ensure they weren't leveraging their monopoly, right?
When I listen to music files or watch videos, I'm never confused about whether I'm watching a file stored locally or remotely, and the difference still seems pretty important.Would that be the case if you were living a country that didn't have shitty internet connectivity? Lots of places in the world are moving up to 1gbps broadband standards. The U.S. is lagging behind while telecom companies are busy trying to actually degrade service in order to boost profits
What would your thoughts on this picture be? There's obviously a Ship of Theseus issue with software versions, plus forks, plus branding.Well, the thing is that Mozilla 5 was a complete rewrite. It wasn't just an overhaul, it was a fundamental re-engineering from scratch. Just like how Windows 2000 wasn't a 'decedent' of Windows 95/98/millennium, it was a sister project.
I've been thinking about this lately, because I've just helped write the latest version of a program that was first released in 1988. A lot of people have made/forked their own versions of it over the years, under various names. Our latest version is the official version, but it's a rewrite, sharing ~1% of code with the last official version. Which is the 'real' one? What's the family tree?
I really don't understand what this antitrust case did. Windows has continued to ship with IE, and that's why everybody uses it. Sure, you don't have the "Active Desktop", but everybody had an IE icon on their desktop and that's how they browsed the internet.I haven't looked at IE in years, lots of people used firefox and now chrome. Their market share was pretty massive.
Yeah, but that's just because you are 1337. When you bought a computer, it came with IE. Then you said "Screw this, I'm getting a different browser because of things I heard from other sources." How did the antitrust case help here?Yeah, so did a lot of other people. And on top of that Microsoft stop the integration of new products with windows. MS, for example, could have put in a search bar for Microsoft live search (now bing) right on the desktop or in the start menu, with no option to change it. That would have taken a huge bite out of Google, but they never did. Why not? Probably because they knew it would be an anti-trust issue. They could even have put out a patch that just broke Firefox if they'd wanted too, why not?

Racial Discrimination In Hire/Purchase Lending In Apartheid South Africa
AbstractA partial-observability model finds evidence of racial discrimination by retailers of consumer durables in apartheid South Africa. In particular, black households are 13 percentage points more likely to demand a hire/purchase loan but not to have one supplied than are other households, all else equal.

Delay Rezoning of Ellisor School to Smith School
Petition summary and background Prospective buyers of homes in May Valley who conducted due diligence and inquired about the school zoning before committing to purchase were informed that children in the neighborhood would attend Tom Ellisor Elementary School, a Magnolia ISD school recognized as exemplary. Rezoning plans, which had been underway for several months, were not disclosed to prospective buyers. Those plans could impact property values, resale ability, their children educations, and, had those plans been shared, may have precluded many from purchasing homes in the area. Action petitioned for We, the undersigned, are concerned citizens who urge the Magnolia Independent School Board to delay the rezoning vote for at least one year to allow for an inclusive, transparent process that involves, shares information with, and solicits feedback from potentially impacted homeowners.

Bio-Synergy Branch Chain Amino Acids Power Your Muscles! Bio-Synergy BCAA is composed of the branch chain amino acids leucine, isoleucine, and valine to provide you with the building blocks essential for the construction of strong, healthy muscles. BCAA builds the proteins that form the basis for muscle growth and muscle energy during tough workouts. How BCAA can help YOU: BCAA is composed of essential amino acids that aren't produced in the body and are used to build new proteins or to be burnt as fuel and top up your energy levels. The amino acids - leucine, isoleucine, and valine - are particularly important for athletes because they're processed in the muscles, not in the liver like other amino acids, and have a direct link to muscle growth and strength. Build Your Muscles - Amino acids work with protein following exercise to increase muscle growth. Taken immediately after exercise and during recovery, Bio-Synergy BCAA will help increase your muscle mass. Additionally, taking amino acids before a work-out will increase their availability during times when there is increased blood flow to the muscles and maximises their delivery to the muscles. Power Through Your Workouts - Amino acids are the building blocks of protein. These acids are incredibly important to our bodies as they help build and repair tissue and produce chemicals which aid brain function. During exercise, amino acids are broken down and delivered to your muscles through your bloodstream, giving them vital energy and foundations for rebuilding and strengthening.

Because you can't have the government competing with them in an area that they might, someday, begin to consider serving.
That's not why. It's because they're afraid of getting shown up.
If you have a bunch of people out in the country getting gigabit internet for $25/month while the city folk are still paying $50/month for 1mbps DSL, it makes AT&T/Verizon look either corrupt or incompetent. It also destroys their argument that they can't provide good Internet in the US because of the low population density.

"We have a significant H.I.V. epidemic in this country, and we really need to look carefully at any potential intervention that could be another tool in the toolbox we use to address the epidemic," Dr. Kilmarx said. "What we've heard from our consultants is that there would be a benefit for infants from infant circumcision, and that the benefits outweigh the risks."posted by edd at 6:46 PM on August 25, 2009
'...there is now compelling epidemiological evidence from over 40 studies which shows that male circumcision provides significant protection against HIV infection; circumcised males are two to eight times less likely to become infected with HIV.'
Based on the studies published to date, recommending routine circumcision as a prophylactic measure to prevent HIV infection in Africa, or elsewhere, is scientifically unfounded.I think it's probably unlikely that a CDC suggestion would have much of an impact on the number of circumcisions performed in this country.

Results. In response to the erotic stimulus, both groups evidenced a significant increase in penile temperature, which correlated highly with subjective reports of sexual arousal. Uncircumcised men had significantly lower penile temperature than circumcised men, and evidenced a larger increase in penile temperature with sexual arousal. No differences in genital sensitivity were found between the uncircumcised and circumcised groups. Uncircumcised men were less sensitive to touch on the forearm than circumcised men. A decrease in overall touch sensitivity was observed in both groups with exposure to the erotic film as compared with either baseline or control stimulus film conditions. No significant effect was found for pain sensitivity.So they found some measurable differences in how they react along specific measures, but no general difference in sensitivity. Note that this study measured sensitivity when aroused, as a direct proxy for sexual stimulation, as opposed to other studies that did not induce arousal prior to measurement.
Conclusion. These results do not support the hypothesized penile sensory differences associated with circumcision. However, group differences in penile temperature and sexual response were found.

The glans of the uncircumcised men had significantly lower mean (SEM) pressure thresholds than that of the circumcised men, at 0.161 (0.078) g (P = 0.040) when controlled for age, location of measurement, type of underwear worn, and ethnicity. There were significant differences in pressure thresholds by location on the penis (P < 0.001). The most sensitive location on the circumcised penis was the circumcision scar on the ventral surface. Five locations on the uncircumcised penis that are routinely removed at circumcision had lower pressure thresholds than the ventral scar of the circumcised penis.
The glans of the circumcised penis is less sensitive to fine touch than the glans of the uncircumcised penis. The transitional region from the external to the internal prepuce is the most sensitive region of the uncircumcised penis and more sensitive than the most sensitive region of the circumcised penis. Circumcision ablates the most sensitive parts of the penis.
Based on our findings, a complication can be expected in 1 out every 476 circumcisions. Six urinary tract infections can be prevented for every complication endured and almost 2 complications can be expected for every case of penile cancer prevented.*posted by Sys Rq at 3:02 PM on August 26, 2009

Does anyone have a really simple example of deep learning (ideally with code) so we can see how it relates to statistical concepts?

The haves and the have-nots come face-to-face in the Broadway hit Good People. Written by Pulitzer Prize winner David Lindsay-Abaire (Rabbit Hole), this Tony-nominated dramatic comedy finds struggling single mother Margie Walsh laid off from her job at the dollar store and left with the reality that her South Boston neighborhood is providing the same level of opportunity it always has: none. It's the kind of place where, for many people, this month's paycheck covers last month's bills. Facing eviction, Maggie's forced to turn to an old high school flame for help. But he's now a successful physician living in the suburbs ... and Margie is way out of her element. With his signature humorous glow, David Lindsay-Abaire explores the struggles, shifting loyalties and unshakable hope that come with having next to nothing in America. Learn More

Really enjoyed the show, especially Kate Mines' performance as Lilly and Elizabeth's performance of Grace. Most of the actors are amazing, the story is fascinating. Overall a little long, but I thoroughly enjoyed myself.
Written by Stacy Sims (author of Swimming Naked) and directed by Sam Anderson.
As White As O tells the story of Jack Hawley . When the house he and his outsider artist father built in Rabbit Hash, Kentucky gets moved to a museum in New York by a wily curator, Jack decides its time to revisit the past. Arriving in New York, he is overwhelmed by memories of his father's life and death, a surprise about his mother, and a girl he never stopped loving. To top it off, Jack has synesthesia, a condition involving an involuntary cross-wiring of the senses. Jack tastes his feelings, smells what he touches, and sees letters in color. While young art star Ed insists Jack's synesthesia is the greatest possible way to experience the world, Jack isn't so sure. As the past becomes present, Jack must take on life again, no matter what color it is or how disturbing it tastes or smells.
The cast of As White As O features Lauren Clark, Joe Calarco, Ramon deOcampo, Keelia Flinn, TJ Marchbank, Kate Mines, Elizabeth Sampson, Mark St. Amant, Vince Tula, Jennings Turner, Bryna Weiss and Heather Williams.
It will be produced for The Road by company member Leon Russom, with set and lighting created by, respectively, the company's resident designers Desma Murphy and David B. Marling. Lighting will be designed by LADCC Career Achievement honoree Jeremy Pivnick.

Abus Performance helmet £89.99
Innovative helmet with distinctive looks, but heavy, poorly-ventilated and uncomfortable
Weight 640g Contact www.zyro.co.uk
The Abus Performance helmet (previously known as the Ecolution) is a curious beast. Abus claims its layer of cardboard makes it more shock-absorbing and therefore more protective than a conventional expanded polystyrene helmet. It has the rounded looks beloved of urban riders, clearly its target users. But its weight, lack of ventilation and some problem details swamp its appearance, and innovative technological and ecological features.
We've talked about this helmet design before and again when it was shown at Eurobike at the end of 2012. The brainchild of Anirudha Rao, who now runs Kranium Headware Ltd in London, the Performance uses wood-cellulose fibre board as its main shock-absorbing material. It was originally claimed to be three to four times better at absorbing shock that a conventional helmet, but Abus is now claiming an improvement of about 40 percent.
The board is coated with acrylic to make it waterproof and there's a layer of recycled expanded polystyrene on the inside so the edges of the board don't get rammed into your skull if you hit your head. There's also a thick layer of plastic over the whole lot.
It's quite similar to the construction of helmets in the 1980s and early '90s, which typically used an ABS plastic shell over their expanded polystrene cores. They were heavy compared to the polystyrene-only lids that followed them and that in turn begat today's helmets with thin co-moulded shells.
You really notice the Performance's weight when you first pick it up and you can feel it from the moment you put it on. You're always aware of the extra mass. You feel it whenever you turn or lean your head. Taking it off is a blessing.
Weight, then, is helmet's big problem. Even the heaviest first-generation helmet didn't match the Performance's 640g heft.
Six hundred and forty grams.
That's 130g heavier than the previous holder of the title of heaviest helmet we've tested, the folding Biologic Pango. It's twice the weight of a typical mid-price modern lid. It's over three times the weight of the 185g Specialized Prevail S-Works, the lightest helmet we've tested.
Ventilation is also an issue. There are just two slots fore and aft for air to enter and leave, and there are no internal channels to conduct air over your head. At cruising speed in cool weather it's fine, but if it's warm or you're in a hurry things get sweaty quickly.
I also didn't find the Performance very comfortable. It's the only helmet I've ever used where I couldn't get the rear of the fitting cradle to sit below my occipital protuberance with the helmet properly positioned on my head. The occipital protuberance is the lump on the back of your skull that most helmets use as an anchor point. The Performance's occipital cradle also houses an adjustment dial and I found the dial's housing dug in to my head unless I tilted the helmet back.
The straps throw up another comfort problem. They're attached to the outside of the helmet, the best part of an inch away from your head. That means they only contact your head under the chin, concentrating pressure there. Most modern helmets mount the straps inside the helmet so they sit snugly against your head all the way to the buckle, spreading the load. The Performance has a pad over the buckle, which helps a bit but not enough.
Abus deserves credit for trying something different, in using recycled or recyclable materials for the Performance, but the result is deeply flawed. Compared to similarly-priced conventional helmets it's very heavy, poorly ventilated and uncomfortable.
You'd only choose the Performance if you were extremely taken with its looks. The transparent shell and consequently visible cardboard inner is very distinctive, and it'll probably be a great conversation-starter in urban cycling cafes. But for me its practical disadvantages far outweigh the small benefit of its looks and eco-friendliness.

Operation and use:
Adult and youth helmet for city, commuting and everyday use
This helmet fulfils the demands of urban cyclists and commuters
This helmet is a unique, exclusive world's first
Can't fault it here, it's tidily made and all the moulded parts are clean.
It meets CE shock-absorbtion standards, but in every respect - comfort, weight, ventilation - performance is poor.
Hard-shell helmets have the big advantage of lasting years, as long as they're not crashed, because the outer shell protects the compressible liner.
Heaviest. Helmet. Ever.
Between the weight, problems with straps and cradle, and lack of ventilation, it's just not comfortable for more than a few minutes' ride to the shops.
Tell us how the product performed overall when used for its designed purpose
Tell us what you particularly liked about the product
Innovative use of materials
Tell us what you particularly disliked about the product
The weight, lack of ventilation and comfort problems.
Did you enjoy using the product? No.
Would you consider buying the product? No.
Would you recommend the product to a friend? No.
Anything further to say about the product in conclusion?
The Performance has distinctive looks and innovative use of materials in its favour, plus various claims of improved protection over standard helmets. But none of that maters when the resulting helmet is so hot, heavy and uncomfortable that you'd never use it. Abus and Kranium Headware need to go back to the drawing board and see if their ideas can be incorporated to a helmet that bears comparison with similarly-priced conventional helmets.
About the tester
Age: 48
I usually ride: Scapin Style My best bike is:
I've been riding for: Over 20 years I ride: Most days I would class myself as: Expert
I regularly do the following types of riding: commuting, touring, club rides, general fitness riding,
The only point that matters when reviewing a helmet; How protective is it ? If this lid makes a head injury less likely then that's good enough for me. Weight and venting are nice but you only have one head.
Maybe protection is the most imprtant thing about a helmet, but if it is uncomfortable it won't be worn and it won't protect anything.
Ride more, ride better
The only point that matters when reviewing a helmet; How protective is it ? If this lid makes a head injury less likely then that's good enough for me. Weight and venting are nice but you only have one head.
Yes, but you've got lots of choice at helmets at £89.99 and below, so the other points made in the review are perfectly valid. That's why its called a "review".
"Taking it off is a blessing." Don't understand why it wasn't given nil stars.

you wear a full face motorsports helmet then, presumably?
Having never been in an 'urban cycling café', the thought of the clientele having earnest discussions about helmets has left me with no wish to ever visit one.
I presume this is a distinctly London based variety of refreshment venue?

That would be too light and flimsy. I'd recommend a deep sea diving helmet if maximum protection was desired (whilst ignoring all other qualities). After all, you only have one head ...

Or even just a full-face cycling helmet like downhillers wear?
You don't see many road cyclists wearing these for some reason. I wonder why? "You only have one head." after all.
Also I don't think I've ever seen anyone wearing a neck brace whilst road cycling. But "you only have one neck" and it is just as important as your head.
Turns out most sensible people weigh up the risks and benefits of safety gear.
So no, "How protective is it ?" is actually pretty far from the "only point that matters when reviewing a helmet".
This helmet, plus my black assos 851 air jack will complete my hell raiser look quite nicely.

SEATTLE, Feb. 20, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Opscode®, the leader in cloud infrastructure automation, today announced that Amazon Web Services' (AWS) new OpsWorks application management solution uses Opscode Chef™ as the framework to automate everything from configuring server instances to deploying applications in AWS cloud environments. AWS OpsWorks comes preconfigured with a default collection of Chef cookbooks for automating standard infrastructure operations, ensuring maximum consistency and control throughout the application development and deployment process. Using Opscode Chef, AWS OpsWorks delivers a flexible, automated, end-to-end solution for simplifying application management and speeding the path to innovation.
"As enterprise organizations look to cloud computing for leverage in the race to market, the scale and complexity of cloud deployments can quickly outpace the skills available to manage them. Automation solves for this skills gap by enabling IT with the tools necessary to effectively build and manage large-scale cloud infrastructure," said Adam Jacob, Chief Customer Officer, Opscode. "Opscode already has hundreds of customers using our Chef-based products to automate AWS clouds, so OpsWorks is not only a logical extension of Chef's benefits for AWS users, but further validation of Chef as a key component in any cloud-based, application management tool chain."
AWS OpsWorks uses Opscode Chef code recipes to automate, simplify, and accelerate the entire application lifecycle – from configuration to staging, deployment to shutdown – all with secure control. Using the Chef framework, OpsWorks provides an easy, step-by-step, highly repeatable and consistent process for building, managing, and deploying applications in AWS clouds. OpsWorks comes with a default set of Chef cookbooks that contain recipes to handle standard operations, including setting up and configuring application servers and deploying applications, across a wide range of scenarios. Because OpsWorks uses Chef, users can easily leverage hundreds of community-built configurations such as PostgreSQL, Nginx, and Solr. OpsWorks also makes it easy to upload and implement custom Chef recipes to perform additional tasks, including specialized configurations and application builds.
The open source Chef community features tens of thousands of active users, more than 1,000 individual contributors, 175 corporate contributors, and 800 cookbooks, providing a rich ecosystem of support for AWS customers looking to make the most of their investment in the cloud.
Chef Overview
Opscode's pioneering software, Chef, is an open-source systems integration framework built specifically for automating at scale. No matter how complex the realities of business, Chef makes it easy to deploy servers and scale applications throughout an entire infrastructure. Through a combination of configuration management and service-oriented architectures, Chef makes it easy to create an elegant, fully automated infrastructure while simplifying systems management. Chef is available as an open source download, a SaaS subscription, or as software installed behind the user's firewall.
About Opscode
Opscode is the leader in infrastructure automation. Opscode helps companies of all sizes develop fully automated server infrastructures that scale easily and predictably; can be quickly rebuilt in any environment; and save developers and systems engineers time and money.

text: Cancer and aging are integrally related. Cancer incidence and mortality increase with age, with most cancer diagnoses and deaths occurring in patients aged 65 and older. The aging of the Baby Boomer population, along with an overall increase in life expectancy, points to a doubling of the U.S. population over age 65 by the year 2030. This demographic shift, combined with the known association of cancer and aging, is expected to bring about a rapid growth in the older cancer-patient population. It is clear that geriatric principles must become part of oncology care. The evaluation and development of treatment recommen- tions for an older adult with cancer can be challenging for many reasons. Tumor biology and response to therapy are affected by age. In addition, age-related factors may impact treatment patterns, tolerance, and efficacy. These age-related factors include functional status declines, comorbid conditions, changes in cognitive function, weakening of organ function, decreases in physiologic reserve, and faltering social support.
