And he's very clear there should be 100x more companies making video content. My contention is that video is a horrible way, usually, to convey information. More companies means more video. That's a pretty horrible idea, actually.

I'd say that safety certainly has a price point where people will change their minds, even if they don't want to admit it.

As I have mentioned before, you don't expect your automobile insurance, even full coverage, to pay for a tuneup. Expecting medical insurance to pay for regular care is just inserting a middleman that extracts value while increasing cos

It absolutely shouldn't account for such a large discrepancy, but is the level of expertise the same? I would also expect that the US dentist has paid much more for their education. Did the US dentist go to school longer? As I said, I&

Thank you. If you don't mind another dumb question, is the benefit great enough for the hassle of complaints and the possible compromise of ostensibly private information? There are self-hosted solutions, but I imagine they'd enta

Ah, so the indexes are secured - but are they encrypted? You don't need to answer. It's okay. I'm largely asking because I've been thinking about writing an series of essays on the subject of security and one of the topi

Oh, Microsoft certainly helped sink them, but I'm of the opinion that Netscape was gleefully poking holes in their ship at the same time. I never did figure out what Communicator actually was meant to do. Someone likened it to ActiveSc

> No, to be clear, if you add up all the companies using all the CDNs you mention you only get to about 1,000 that are doing so at any meaningful and interesting scale. That's a shame. There should be 100x that. That's what w

Dumb question; is it really all that important that they analyze traffic on a .gov address? If so, for what purpose(s)?

In some places, laws already work sort of like that. Except for emergency bills, they can't take effect until something like 180 days after congress has had their final session. It makes perfect sense, to me at least, for taxation regu

That works. Anything I make, at least for money, gets donated or given away, pretty much. Some of the things I do result in my being given things like lasagna and fresh baked bread as payment. I eat that. I'd be crazy not to.

Yeah, right after I sold, I tried the not being busy thing. It was less than ideal and it only took a few years before I was bored beyond belief. I did the volunteering thing but that was, for many reasons, less than ideal. So, now I keep m

You needn't be all that specific, but how do you securely search the encrypted data?

There should probably be another word for it? I'm financially secure and will be for the rest of my life. But, I still generate an income, mostly by ownership but I still do physical labor. I do quite a bit of my own labor, as well. I

It's not popular to voice this, but some of Netscape's fall was due to self-inflicted wounds. In the end, they'd piled a package together called Netscaoe Communicator and it had become a bloated and buggy mess. They weren&#x2

My comment was about them asserting there should be 100x the video content. Why should there be? It's a pretty horrible way to share information, in all but a few situations.

by KGIII 9y ago
Why should there be 100x more? Video is not optimal for lots of information. It's not interactive or easy to cite and reference. It is bandwidth intense and typically has a lower information density per byte than text has. There are pl

Thanks. As mentioned in another comment, I'm going to read the book. I'm not really big on much anthropology, but I do love math. So, it should be interesting to see the concepts in motion before they became described by mathemati

Thanks for the recommendation. I wrote the title down and will see if the bookstore has it. If not, they'll order it for me. They are handy like that.

Sure, but did it precede the mathematical concepts? If so, what did that look like? I'm going to read the book.

Yeah, I may end up switching to Verizon, though I'm not sure how happy they will be. US Cellular owns the towers near me and Verizon has an agreement to share towers with them. However, Verizon recently cut about 12,500 people off beca

Yeah, that was why I mentioned that it may not be a viable option for them. I'm not sure the answer is in one license over another, nor in one OS over another. I'm not sure it is, realistically, solved by any one company being &#x

I wonder how long the modern idea of debt has existed? Mainly, that idea of owing someone something, (often) at a later date? The concept of zero isn't even 5000 years old. Negative numbers were still being debated in the 1700s, though

Seeing as we are off topic... It made me think of cow's milk, coffee, and chocolate. I prefer your mental image and it also made me chuckle. Sort of on-topic, trends in naming things confuses me. Are we using so many strange, to me at

It's a bit disconcerting to find someone pretending to be you online. I've had my real name and moniker used multiple times. This has always been associated with a little information about me, namely they know a bit about me and w

I, and it seems a few others in this thread, like our Windows phones. It's the only Microsoft code I have running, actually.

Acer, HP, and Alcatel still make them. Microsoft doesn't make any and Windows Phone 8 is dead, I think.

There's the rub. You didn't buy the operating system. You bought a license to use it. That is not a difference without distinction. Microsoft very much view it as their operating system, even though you've purchased a license
