You make no sense. " This site is about making good PR " Parent adresses what is (not) good PR. " So, honestly, why they should provide you with the content you like for free? " Because they want us (early adopters) to use their product. Wh

In art it is entirely personal whether you finish "awful" songs. You really think Rilke would have been better off finishing every poem he started writing? Nonsense. If you have a Muse, better obey her. When it comes to software: perhaps yo

I know plenty of scientists and researchers who use windows because their programs run on it. The kind of professor who ask their kids why there are 20 toolbars in their browser, and the same night write up a quick 200 line python program t
