Earlier this month Apple took the unusual step of releasing a list of all the firms in its worldwide supply chain as part of its 2011 audit of human rights conditions at factories where it has partnerships.However, the company's own list made for grim reading. It revealed that a staggering 62% of the 229 facilities that it was involved with were not in compliance with Apple's 60-hour maximum working week policy. Almost a third had problem with hazardous waste.Cook insisted in his email that Apple did not turn a blind eye to conditions in its supplier network. But he did warn that the firm was likely to discover more problems. "We will continue to dig deeper, and we will undoubtedly find more issues," he said.

Tim Cook, CEO actuel d'Apple, est responsable de toute la partie production depuis son arrivée en 1998. La fermeture des usines Apple : c'est Cook. La transformation d'Apple, fabricant informatique, en un bureau d'études couplé à une agence de publicité : c'est Cook. L'iPhone 4 blanc avec un an de retard : c'est encore Cook. Depuis 10 ans, Cook a joué la carte "sweatshops" et engrangé les profits ; ça commence à se voir, mais ça n'est plus un problème : l'argent est là, n'a jamais été distribué aux actionnaires, il peut s'acheter une virginité tel le mafieux versant son obole pour la restauration du presbytère.

Yep, comments seem a bit of an anachronism nowadays. I think I’ll probably turn them off on my blog too, when I get round to deploying the new version I’ve half-finished. I miss the long-form responses though. Tweet responses can be hard to follow with the character limit forcing over-simplicity. That’s one of the nice things about Google+, although it’d be nicer still to make more of a return to personal blogs.

I’m tempted to just turn comments off, they certainly attract more spam than good stuff. I think they make sense if you already have a huge readership, otherwise other channels seem better. I kind of like the olden days, where you’d see a blog post and respond by writing your own blog post linking to the former.

MacJournal has always been one of those apps that offers loads of extras, and this new version is no exception. You want to export your writings in EPub format and turn them into an e-book? You can do that.

A popular saying goes that Programmers are machines that turn caffeine into code.

"It's just a bad idea for scientists to turn a lethal virus into a lethal and highly contagious virus. And it's a second bad idea for them to publish how they did it so others can copy it," believes Dr. Thomas Inglesby, a bioterrorism expert and director of the Center for Biosecurity of the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center.

The film is set in post-nuclear Tokyo in a dimension not so distant from ours. Young salary-man's morning commute takes a surreal turn

Perhaps the bookshops themselves are partially to blame. We've been thinking hard how to turn things around, and haven't avoided being self-critical of the work we do.

PATCH-444, Make Twitter hashtags visible. Twitter does some script magic and ends up with broken element nesting: <span><strong>foo</span></strong> in turn causing Opera's layout engine to be upset. This will be fixed with the new parser so we'll just patch it meanwhile.
