Yes! And if their followup response is that they expect (or for the purpose of the interview, presume we expect) employees to provide this info on request, the interviewee's response should be to re-iterate the request for the policy, since if that's the case the company is probably not an attractive employer.
Why would FB want to do this? The applicant is not a useful source of revenue to FB. The hiring company could be easily such, if FB adds features quite different to your suggestions.
You simply don't understand the problem. It's easy to step down from 12V to 3.3V at 100mW or so (google TPS62120 for a high efficiency buck regulator example).
To make a 100mW *ISOLATED* supply from 230VAC involves running the switcher directly from the supply (at least for startup) through a resistor... and for a modern chip needing ~50µA startup current, that's more than 10mW wasted continuously. We haven't even mentioned magnetisation losses in the transformer yet.
1. The person doing MSBACKUP only put one floppy in, and just pressed ENTER when asked to replace with enxt disk.
2. New software is purchased, IT person makes a master backup floppy for the office safe, and working backup floppy, and working copy floppy for user. Orig floppy goes home with CEO. Loads of redundancy, multi site, gold stars all round.
One day, the user's machine says bee-baaaaar, bee-baaaaar etc - can't read the disk. Ok, we'll make you a new one from working backup floppy. Oops, same problem. Try master backup floppy. That's duff too. CEO's copy is brought in, bad also. Of course the problem was the floppy drive, which has now killed all copies of the software...
...because since FB is obliged to cough up what material they can, and the details will be public, we can found out exactly what FB caches despite the privacy policy.
Put an initial bid on at starting price, unless no-one has bid yet. Then bid your limit plus a silly amount to beat someone with a round number (put 41.23 instead of 40.00) 15 secs before the end.

..er, no

...why is no-one asking why
"The information stored on the computer and the papers included details of ... any past criminal convictions".
Councils keep details of criminal history? Er, why? And if so, doesn't that come under (presumably stricter) misuse of police data law?

Floopy days are here again

Actually this is useful...

Contrast ratio?
David - you show a spec list with 2,000,000:1 contrast ratio near the bottom of your piece.
This spec is not at the Sony page you link to:
http://www.sony.co.uk/product/t32-nx-series/kdl-32nx503/tab/overview
This TV uses CCFL backlight, so cannot use zone dimming. The contrast ratio will be that of the matice LCD panel, around 1000:1
How to bid on Ebay...

This is why I'm stil on 2.0.0.24
Nothing on 3.0 was useful to me, the indexing was a complete pain, so I reverted...
Not "400% more"...
Yeah yeah, engineers ARE pedantic, and I am one. 400% times would be ok, just a slight exaggeration.
