Except that you did draw a conclusion.

hah, i was wondering the same :)
The lesson learnt from this fiasco is that CF can't trust its upstream ISPs, so tunneling traffic over to another ISP in a different geo adds additional overhead without actually solving the problem.

The right approach to fix upstream MITM is to drop http+https mix and match mode.

So, Facebook says they "fixed" the issue of showing notifications to people outside India -- How exactly would they fix this? If an email is delivered to TRAI's mailbox, it stays delivered, doesn't it?
It is for this reason Elasticsearch 1.x advocates using 'copy_to' on mapping attributes that may encounter collision. Elasticsearch 2.x explicitly throws exception whenever it detects mapping collision.
Just created an account and uploaded my rc file. This is quite cool!

More like "Both companies didn't immediately respond to requests for comment. Its 8:30PM and no one's taking my calls or responding to my emails, but we're an online publication and want our content to go viral and get maximum eyeballs, so we'll run this story anyway."

Its amazing how Dilbert has a comic strip about almost every corporate quirkiness.

I usually prefer wget to browser based downloads.
You haven't driven much on country roads with two lanes and no median, have you? Following a container truck going at 20kmph with "Do Not Pass" sign for 50 Kms, how many people would honor that?

I think FUSE is still on SourceForge.
I doubt the converter would work accurately beyond the salary bellcurve.

".....perhaps remove poverty of more than 500 million Indians."

It sounds so easy when you put it like that. Thank you :)

In the age of NSA sponsored spying, having an independent and largely self-taught space program is indeed a scientific achievement. Especially for a country that's 67 years old.
Yes it is proud-able accomplishment, and I am serious.

Government plays ads on local TV channels because a lot of people hide their real income and skip paying taxes, but I digress.

tell me, did you google for "isro scam" or do you actually understand spectrum pricing and antitrust laws?
I believe he /literally/ helped the project by paying his taxes on time.

The government plays ads on local TV channels urging citizens to pay their taxes on time and that the money helps government execute projects like this.

Citation needed, or I call BS on this.

Thanks for this, the PDF invoice looks great! As someone else mentioned, an option to save company and address info in my login would be awesome.

I agree with others here, talk to a lawyer. You've worked hard with shit money and 10% equity in the hopes of cashing in your hard work later.
I get a message saying: "Subscribe now for unlimited access, or register to continue reading. You have reached your article limit."

Sorry about the rant though, I could read the article in incognito as @bryanlarsen suggested.

Sorry, I didn't ask "that no main stream media links get posted here." - I just didn't want to register.

In any case, I'm here for discovering non-mainstream-media news.

hate paywalled articles posted here.
