This somehow reminds of a productivity study done with factory workers (sorry couldn't find a source of sime kind, so this if from memory). They had to carry out relativly simple manual labor taks, the goal of the study was to analyze if there is a link between productivity and brightness of the workplace. After increasing the brightness in the factory productivtiy was rising. So the brightness was increased again and again to find the optimal lighting. Some day workers were showing up wearing sunglasses. The actual reason why productivity rose wasn't the brightness but the attention those blue collar workers were getting from the scientist carrying out the study.
My guess is that when you are beeing monitored (no pun intended) productivity will always rise. Especially if you get a fancy curved surface display like in the microsoft study.
The problem at the moment is that wikileaks can't handle the growth both in terms of submitted documents and volunteers lining up to help.
Daniel Domscheit-Berg said in a german interview a few months ago that they have a full inbox for programmers willing to extend the plattform, but they don't have any resources to review the applications nor the "middle management" to coordinate them.
Also Assange has put no effort into changing this in favour of releasing these "big" scoops. So: at the moment there probably isn't much you can do in terms of direct involvement.
Almost what i expected. I got a 34k offer (same industry) with good benefits but am unsure if its worth the move. Main problem seems to be the rent which is ridiculous if you want to minimze commute time to the centre.
The competition in this market is quite strong in germany, there are 5 major companys offering basically the identical dedicated server service. The servers are not virtualized, therefor you usually have to commit to longer running contracts or higher setup fees.
Not having read all the other comments, so this has probably been mentioned: the subscription page has too much text. Apart from the size difference I don't immediately see what distinguishes products.
I watched it for 10 minutes, which consisted of about 30 clips. 70% of them were bad quality music videos, the rest uninteresting other content, partly in spanish. The "best" one that came across was the recent Chrome Ad. Even voting down every music video just caused more of them to come up. Sometimes the videos had no sound for some reason.
The greatest part is that the court thinks distributing illegal content isn't the main part of thier operation therefor they are allowed to continue the service in general. I seriously doubt that more than even 1% of the traffic is legit.
