Indeed, not to mention the very title of the Wired Article. I'm guessing the author has not recently checked into the concessions given to say, Ferrari [1][2].
That all said, to some extent controversies like these are what make F1 what it is...at least since I've been watching. Remember Jenson Button's secret fuel compartment? [3] Crashgate at Singapore? [4] Schumacher....everything? [5]
If we're going to pick up on BAR's fuel tank problems from 2005 (and calling it a 'secret fuel tank' as the article does is rather disingenuous), then it's worth also pointing out that the tank manufacturer said that BAR's design wasn't unusual; they were merely the scapegoat picked on by the FIA during a period when it was noticeably pro-Ferrari and BAR were for a period their leading challenger.
Or we could point out that McLaren specifically asked about running a hydraulic-based hybrid system in the late 90s and it was initially approved then rejected on pressure from Ferrari, or about their (entirely driver controlled) fiddle brakes system being ruled an illegal driver aid and banned while Ferrari were allowed to decouple the throttle pedal from the engine throttle, or Ferrari getting higher spec tyres from Bridgestone than the other teams, or.....
Great idea, I've been meaning to do something like this since forever and it always got sidetracked. Big plus on the ability to free-text search all the content (not just title/url/etc...). I am not sure if any other service offers this for free (though Google might). It's a big fail [for me] to have a bookmarking service that stores my URLs but doesn't allow me to search all of the text.
As someone who has been using the same bookmarking service since about 2006 and has several thousand bookmarks related to various development domains/langs/etc; this is very useful.
Because doing so is one of the many measures you can take to ensure your software is (and stays) easily maintainable. Getting your SW working is only really one stage of a product life cycle.
FWIW, when I used focus more on networking rather than development, I always used the numpad for typing in IP addresses. I found it was much faster to use it rather than moving horizontally across the number keys, but YMMV of course. Disclaimer: have a DAS Model S at work and home...can't really do without it (at least when the alternative is a terrible laptop keyboard)
Diigo...wish the search was a bit better but I suppose if I was better about tagging that would be less of a pain. Would love to know if someone has a tool they use with powerful search capability and ingestion of content (diigo does this, but for a fee)
