Finally someone got guts and brain to tell riaa to go to fuck off. If you receive mail from somebody who want something from you, you usually wants some money … well, riaa should pay too. id be happy if id see something similar with the some state bureaus. they are not gods, just .. companies owned by country.

I saw this nice article in jibbrish. I will translate it to you.
translation is something like :
We developers, are too lame, we want more money for nothing apple plz do something with that 99cent apps which are killing us because they are popular!, add extra $10 to every app plz!
Something like that.

so, these guys spend 20 years of their lives to study some people. they found out that people are more happy when some friend of friend of friend of friend is happy than if you give them $5k. i asked some people, few answered positively and almost everyone would sell soul of his friend friend friend for $5k.
“they found that people smiling in their photographs had more Facebook friends ” .. so if you are happy and communicative you have more friends then if you just couldnt care less. how unpredictable.
I think it is time for me to write studies!

I found nice video. They are happy to tell the world that they can process 300 million transactions per day. So what?
from wiki :
Effective MIPS speeds are highly dependent on the programming language used. The Whetstone Report has a table showing MWIPS speeds of PCs via early interpreters and compilers up to modern languages. The first compiler was for BASIC (1982) when a 4.8 MHz 8088/87 CPU obtained 0.01 MWIPS. Results on a 2.4 GHz Core 2 Duo (1 CPU 2007) vary from 9.7 MWIPS using BASIC Interpreter, 59 MWIPS via BASIC Compiler, 347 MWIPS using 1987 Fortran, 1534 MWIPS through HTML/Java to 2403 MWIPS using a modern C/C++ compiler. Source code, pre-compiled versions and results on PCs, for these and other benchmarks that measure MIPS, are available from Roy Longbottom’s PC Benchmark Collection (Free).
So, normal computer can do 9.7 millions of instructions per second. One transaction might be … lets say 1000-1500 instructions. So, they are happy that they can handle 300 million per day -> which is … 1/999 of what can one single computer handle . And they have hundreds of servers.I rest my case. Fooling non-IT people is so easy.
