Yeah and the threat of banning Holmes from the industry pretty stern. I'm surprised that the word "fraud" hasn't been used by the investigating bodies yet.

I think it'll be a while before we are out of the woods on this one. The culprits continue to thumb their nose at the FCC and openly challenge their authority.
Maybe this shouldn't have been called a law. Maybe, "Moore's observation" or "Moore's postulation" would have been more apt.
This is always a cool thing to see in Silicon Valley. Way to go, Dropbox.
Re:Experienced Programmers Use Google Frequently on Saturday April 30, 2016 @06:57PM (#11604025)
I really hope people don't think this is a surprise. Before the web, Mac programmers relied on a set of HyperCard stacks from Apple to look up function calls and all kinds of obscure info. It was awesome. Every programmer I've ever known since the 1980s has always had reference materials within easy reach. That's just smart.
