The exact question I had ... though I guess if they're tracking all network data , then they could have just gone back and looked up the history of the SO post.

Nice! yeah, this would be preferable. If there's a catastrophe in the opposite lane, I'd really love it if it could stay over there while I'm going 70 miles an hour in the opposite direction :P

aww hell no. I'd be terrified of merging into that lane with no highway divider between me and oncoming traffic. Small two lane highways are bad enough! :P

hehe, I wrote something like this as well :P https://github.com/joelmartinez/TattooDB-Android This particular one is for Android ... but I had/have plans on creating a version for objective-c and C# (for Xamarin).

I'm fine with acquaintances that don't really correspond with me when my birthday rolls around. However I explicitly don't wish anyone a happy birthday over facebook. If it's someone that's important to me, I will m

Oh man, I thought it was just me!! Sat here for a while in quiet shame after I realized it and thought there must be something wrong with me :P

Oh, yeah ... the problem is that the average stockholder has entered into an agreement where they are at a disadvantage. By buying a relatively small amount of shares (ie. what most regular people do), they have no control over what the com

Thinking back to about 2007, I remember the frothy fervor surrounding all of the new "web 2.0" companies that were coming on the scene back then. I thought for sure that the tech industry was about to see another apocalyptic event

What's supposed to hedge this for the market is competition. There's nothing anyone can do to stop a dedicated board from tanking a company (for whatever benefit they get from doing so). But what that does is open up an opportunit

If they would just make commercials that show artists using the surface as a portable digital easel, authors/students using it as a digital paper replacement, and even some of what they hinted to at the event earlier with someone editi

OneNote (+ digitizer) is indeed amazing ... I don't have a surface, but I do have a series 7 slate, and I have to say that the writing/drawing experience on win8 is really really nice. Considering upgrading it to the pro 2 now.

If the person that has the expertise doesn't want to answer the question for free ... then the free market will deem access to that knowledge more valuable, and his consulting fees will increase. Everything is an ebb and flow. When the

It's not just you ... it is fascinating. I would love to have a good chat over some beers or coffee with some of the engineers and scientists that built this :)

Very cool to read ... by the end of the article thought I found myself saying, "well?", as if expecting them to tell me what I could eat to foster the "correct" type of bacteria. Of course, it seems that we're still

The snowball has been growing here for the last few years. The .NET community was historically not very "open" ... but ever since nuget and github, attitudes have definitely been improving.

Kids don't have credit cards connected to their iTunes account, and thus receive iTunes gift cards for music, which they turn around and use for apps, IAPs for games, etc. I don't have any source for that, or even necessarily beli

Looks like this was a quick semi-joke website. If Tumblr didn't like what message it sent (which is understandable) ... they could have started with a simple email to the guy. Heck, they probably could have just asked him to change the

Well that sucks ... I can't see the details of that deal without being registered/signed in. I was mildly curious, and may have bought in, but without seeing what the deal is I'm not gonna register :-/

You can submit a pull request ;) https://github.com/shiffman/The-Nature-of-Code I think that's so amazingly awesome, that it can evolve as a living document in this way.

See my other response above (wrote that before I read this, though well after you'd made the comment): https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6286046 I wonder how many people use flight for this kind of thing.
