As a rule I only buy frozen vegetables as they don't get sprayed with preservations to stay pretty in the store.

That's just because you don't have any sense of humor. I find complaining about HN (especially the "whaa to much noise") on HN highly ironic.

I wish more people would realized how cheap and easy it is for spammers to break captchas and how extremely hostile captchas are towards people with disabilites. Deaf-blind people aren't helped by the sound alternative, the few times that's

The reference for the article gives 404 and physorg doesn't seem to have an article covering the subject. Heres the original paper: http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/um/people/horvitz/leskov...

In my school (a Swedish University) we sometimes have to turnin our papers via Urkund which is similar to TurnIn, although we don't sign anything in doing so. I read that I can opt-out of having my paper used outside of my local university

I've got no idea but re-coining (or I guess pre-coining) the term web 2.0 into something that doesn't make me cry a bit on the inside every time I or others mention it is pretty high on my list.

In Sweden I'd say we almost always use Visa and to a lesser extent master card. If a website doesn't want to deal with credit cards, I think a local version of paypal https://www.payson.se is more common than paypal if it's a page that's

The HN title and in parts the wording of the article is misleading, even if it's later cleared up in the article. For them to refuse to retain data would imply it's somehow required of them, which it isn't.

Not only that but they are only four people of a much larger swarm maintaining the pirate bay. Even if they go to jail it wouldn't mean anything to the site being up or not.

Somehow I doubt it matters one bit how you use reverse psychology (or don't), they'll have sex anyways. It might work fine for things like "Walk against red at a crossing", but with sex your fighting hormones. The legal age for consent is 1

Yeah it raised an eyebrow for me, it's an interesting cultural phenomenon. As a Sweed I've never had to think about healthcare, it's just there and I take it for granted. Maybe I should start appreciating it more. :)

There was a guest lecturer at my university who gave a talk on distributed development who claimed there's been studies that have shown developers don't tend to get happier the more they are payed as long as they aren't payed too little. In

I wasn't at all implying it's the only option but rather that it's an option. I don't think you can entirely avoid discussions in that format especially if you are discussing non-professional topics like politics, how you should raise child

I'm sorry but I don't understand the rationale behind that statement and I wouldn't voice my oppinion if it wasn't you've been upmodded so much. So I'm curious, if you do not partake how can you possibly succeed? While I do understand why y

This might be a bit cynical of me but I'm quite convinced that if a rich foreigner wanted to become an American citizen that wouldn't be much of a problem. Steve Jobs for example got Feist, American citizenship: http://www.tuaw.com/tag/les

I've found that Wikipedias references are usually really good and then just using wikipedia and wikibooks to become familiar with the subject enough too investigate further is quite effective. Although if I want to really study something be

The issue is far more complicated than just file sharing, the issue of file sharing has simply brought the anonymizing services to light to the general public. Sweden recently passed a law that lets our government perform targeted mass surv

I'm not familiar with how rails has been developed but I'm guessing the explosion is due to there previously only being a small group of people with commit access, as opposed to a sudden rush of people working on it when it hit github, righ

It's not illegal to pay for an anonymizing service in most parts of the world including Sweden.

If you want a printed one (which was my first thought) reserve it by sending them an email with "Reserve WTM" as the topic as per the instructions: http://informationarchitects.jp/web-trend-map-4-final-beta/ they will only make a thousand

We don't have to innovate anything, we already have VPNs. As long as the content exists on the Internet, one can asume that you will be able to access it from somewhere so the only action you need to take is route your traffic to that place

That list is somewhat incomplete and out of date (at least in the case of searchmash and lively). Wikipedia seems to have a more complete list: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Google_products

Besides €3 probobly being enough set up a tunnel too Germany, USA or UK and then get the free service (aswell as having a way around that problem on other occations). I can't help but feel sorry for the poor nations where €3 is an unreasona

My first thought as other people have already noted was that I would be terribly guilt tripped and pay slightly above what I thought would be the average to make myself look good. I do wonder however if people also pay more as a form of soc

When I noticed I could opt in interests for the advertising I did that instead. Maybe I'm doing it wrong but if they are going to give me advertisement at least now maybe I'll find some of them relevant. I appreciate the gesture that they l

I refuse to help people with their computers unless I can remote control them. Even then it's only for close enough friends and family. Programmer != Technitian :(
