Google wants to leapfrog Amazon’s dominance in cloud computing by making it available to everyone. Save them a bit of time scanning all your data

It's a shame it's only Linux. I'm looking for a Windows-hosted cloud computing environment with 64+ GB of RAM.

Windows Azure?

56 GB of RAM is their max and it gets expensive.

Good to know. Just curious, why do you need so much RAM?

Running a never-ending algorithm. I could have it read and write to file, but that would slow it down considerably.

San Francisco's techies are worried that the term has become so derogatory that it's causing them pain. They would prefer "hacker" or, well, "maker." "Call me whatever you want, just don't call me late for dinner"
Seriously, people?

You should apply at Apple. Their FoxCon factories could use a great motivator like you.

"Maker"? WTF is "maker"? It's pathetic, meaningless bollocks. Morons.

"You're not a carpenter, you just some guy who sits in a coffeehouse all day with a bunch of stickers on his laptop."
The only people who are "makers" are the Asian men and women who assembled my phone, laptop and all the other stuff that allows me to earn a living. People would do well to remember that imo.

Wow! Bit angry there! Has something touched a nerve?

It's not so much an insult as a true statement of their uselessness; much like "geek".

Traditional office working is losing ground as the “best way” to work, and managers supporting it are either of a generation where using social technologies is seen as lazy or timewasting, or they have the wrong team – i.e. a team that requires intense scrutiny to keep it working. Are you working virtually, or virtually working?

"Denis Duvauchelle is the CEO and co-founder of Twoodo, the ultimate online collaboration tool."
So, no vested interest there, then?
Have to say I've worked in a variety of modes from full blown work at home to you can never work at home! I prefer the middle ground where I can, now and again, work from home if I need to because the garden trimmer broke and I need to wait in for someone to come and fix it but I still benefit from the social interaction you get form being in an office. I once worked for 18 months straight from my home office (the garden, mostly) and it was great at first but you end up becoming a little isolated: there is no substitute for walking into someone's cube and interrupting their mid-morning porn session with "Debbie does the Googleplex" because you need a cardboard programmer.
