Thanks for the context. The additional context does not really make the statement any better IMHO. Starting a company with one of your friends has a lot of "drawbacks". If your friend is underperforming by a huge margin you often

I know too little about currencies but to me it looks like that our "real currencies" are inherently deflationary as well... At least this is how it is supposed to work - right? I mean what if governments weren't printing new

The article mentions: compile time with -O3 is roughly the same as Python VM startup and has to be done only once So I think the OP argues that there is no need for a C++ interpreter because compiling C++ code is as fast as starting a Pyt

Right. It is labeled badly. The "Increase Contrast" options is even more badly labeled because it in part increases contrast by disabling blur. I think that Apple does not want an explicit "Disable Blur" setting because

I think DropBox wants to improve its ecosystem: The more and the better apps/3rd parties are integrating DropBox the more reasons people have to use DropBox. The Datastorage API makes Dropbox a "copy" of iCloud: You can sync

Are you sure about that? Did a quick search and found this article: http://www.spiegel.de/wirtschaft/euro-umstellung-banken-verl... They are talking about exchanging coins. Not being able to exchange coins would also m

This reminds me of a story: For a certain time in recent theory you were able to legally "print money": A couple of years ago when Germany got the Euro currency there were put a few regulations in place for the banks. If you came

OP here... accessing the underlying SQLite database is very easy by using Core Data. Compare it with using the SQLite C API directly for one second: As things grow you will have more or less the same "problems" with the plain C AP

If she has to make decisions, she will always take the popular choice. Are you saying that this is a bad thing? I am always surprised when people demand from politicians to make unpopular choices. Isn't that a bit schizophrenic?
