There is a distinct lack of practical or comprehensive information on RSI treatment available online. Instead, there are people promoting gimmicks/scams, fear mongering, and bloggers complaining about pain but never discussing whether or how they got better. Were this not the case, I would never consider offering anecdotal medical advice, and I look forward to corrections in the comments. Listen to your body! (Not necessarily normal behavior for a programmer.)

Is it time to give Java the boot? Experts say yes. Java, the programming language designed to make the web fun and interactive, has become one of the weakest links in a PC’s and Mac's defenses against external threats. Consider the most recent Java vulnerability, a weakness currently being exploited by malware distributors: When Oracle, Java's maker, released an emergency update to fix the software, security analysts reported that even the hot-off-the-presses code contains additional vulnerabilities. Aegrescit medendo - The cure is worse than the disease.

Fingerprint-reading software preinstalled on laptops sold by Dell, Sony, and at least 14 other PC makers contains a serious weakness that makes it trivial for hackers with physical control of the machine to quickly recover account passwords, security researchers said. Light-fingered hackers make light of your fingers.

Nokia today announced its new flagship Windows Phone 8, the Lumia 920, with a powerful PureView camera as the centerpiece. The Nokia Lumia 920 has a 4.5-inch curved glass display with a resolution of 1280 x 768, a 1.5 GHz dual-core Snapdragon S4 processor, 1GB of RAM, and 32GB of storage. How do you think this measures up to Android and iPhone alternatives?

“In federal rules tests, there are just two dummies tested,” Reed reveals. “And manufacturers are using computer simulations that are effective in predicting what will happen in a dummy test.” But what about real humans? What about the 75-year-old man with soft ribs and a curved back, whose short-sightedness causes him to sit close to the dash? ...state-of-the-art computational models are tweaking airbags, seatbelt and vehicle designs to accommodate him and the rest of the world’s drivers. You have crashed. Game over. Ready driver one?

We should all be pretty well aware at this point that the robot apocalypse (or "robopocalypse," if you will) is on its way. Our most gifted storytellers have been warning us about it for years, from the legend of the golem to James Cameron's Skynet. In their latest volley against an unsuspecting human race, our metallic overlords-to-be have conscripted MIT researcher Kate Darling to draft a new research paper that suggests humans grant rights to robots. According to Darling, robots don't need rights on par with humans (yet), but due to the emotional connections humans can create with them, we may find it beneficial to ascribe them similar rights to our pets. This is the voice of world control. I bring you peace.

So because some people act like tards around robots we should all treat them the way the idiots do?
MIT's standards are slipping these days.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Windows Phone 8 looks great. Its features and capabilities are far better than Windows Phone 7 (and you know I already think WP7 was a “superior” product). It has a well-designed look and feel that enables it to stand out. It has all the features the competition has and also some innovative capabilities they don’t. Will Windows Phone 8 devices sell in sufficiently large numbers to make Microsoft a strong force in the smartphone space and keep Nokia in business? I don’t know. A human salesperson, acting 1:1 with a customer is an extremely powerful force.

So am I getting something better than 1080p on a phone that is HD+, Don't think so.
|
|
|
|
|
Resolution is not all as I think you know. It's about the smothness, frame rate, bruightness and more much more.
So yeah, in my opinion, the 920+ has better video recording than most of the 1080p ones.
I'm not saying it's the best cause I can't really pronounce since I havent tried one. But from the tech reviews it's pretty good.
All the best,
Dan

True. I actually am impressed that some of the new laptop manufactures are putting 900 line display in thier laptops, unlike Dell, etc. I know that on laptops in the past I could not play 1080 videos at all.

Ok, so this came to me in todays newsletter.
How is this "Developer news"?
This represents noob thoughts by an unexperienced programmer (if at all).
I wonder if The Insider Newsletter's editor even reads the articles before choosing them for the NEWSletter.

The newsletter often contains blog entries of people's opinions of how technology is changing. This article is no different.

And what makes your opinion so much more valuable? Just because you don't like his opinion you sink to insulting the guy?

This wasn't about the article at all. This was about the editor choosing that article as "news".
"News" is something that actually happened, or something that is really going on. Like "Microsoft threw away C#".
The article was a blog entry about author's thoughts of how things could be. That cannot be news.

Last I checked general news sources also contain things like political opinion pieces. I'd say this is fairly equivalent.

Should this even be posted in the News Section?
Could someone please move it to the Lounge (at least), or to the Oblivion (at best)?
