So let me ask: why does this news deserve so much attention to stand in front of HN? What interesting innovation, except the GUI, has brought this new OS release? Is an OS all about GUI and look & feel?
Generally speaking, I am just fed up with all this thoughtless media attention.
Translation:
CVs: here are several CV examples, with different layouts, and using different techniques. It is true that for someone who is not familiar with LaTeX, common text processing software might be easier for typesetting a simple CV. This said, using LaTeX is also seeing how other people use it...
o CV1 (cv1.txt,cv1.ps.gz): simple
o CV2 (cv2.txt,cv.cls,cv2.ps.gz): more complex, but also nicer, it uses its own document class 'CV', written to that purpose (...)
o CV3 (cv3.txt,cv3.ps.gz): simple and elegant
Files can be found here: http://www.tuteurs.ens.fr/logiciels/latex/templates/. You can also check UK TUG's FAQ (http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=cv).
But in my opinion the best thing is to write your own template from scratch so that it matches best with your personality.

One day my account (solely used for sending payments) got blocked because of a "potential unauthorized third-party access". After completing the verification they asked (new password, new security question and credit card confirmation), I received another message asking me to send a scanned copy of my ID Card, a proof of domicile and my BBAN.
I told them that for confidentiality reasons, it was out of question to send any of these documents. I asked them to give me more specific information about the materials that led to the account suspension and to reactivate it without delay. The next day, I received an email with vague excuses and my account got reactivated immediately.
It is true that their antifraud system can lead to number of suspended accounts and frozen funds without any solid basis. But they may also take advantage of frozen money (eg. this 600k case) for further financial activities so as big-box stores are used to: http://books.google.com/?id=UOSk0J8vYugC&pg=PA533 (source: http://preview.tinyurl.com/2vrcddc)
