I’ve done a previous post about musical artists that start strong, but end poorly. And we’re just talking facts, as I’m not their judge. And when you find success in entertainment, strong temptations will follow along with industry compromise. But…
This is an excellent opinion piece that nails it. By Ryan McMaken Possibly one of the most inane phrases ever uttered about modern governments is Oliver Wendell Holmes’s oft-quoted phrase stating that “taxes are what we pay for civilized…
The implication is that tailored prices might be used to gouge certain consumers, but in fairness it can also be used to give deals to move product. Consequently, I’ve looked at items on Amazon that I didn’t buy, to come…

Interesting report of the feds getting warrants to wipe malware from people’s computers without their permission. Why not alert them to the infection for them to deal with when found? This kind of deprives them of using a computer forensics…
The greedy megacorp overplays its hand. You’d have to think they’re literally banking on many firms not having the expertise to make the move away from VMware. But there are opensource alternatives, and probably plenty of consultants to help make…
