Perhaps a bit of a stupid question but I've always wondered: how do companies that offer self deployed services like AeroFS or Github Entreprise avoid being hacked by dishonest customers to bypass their pricing plans limitations? Or is

I'm surprised they didn't get acquired yet. Surely they must have turned an offer or two down by now.

This is hilarious. I'd love to see the source code of a large program written in ArnoldC :)

The header looks a bit odd to me, but otherwise I find it a massive improvement; no need to zoom any longer.

Is this something you would recommend reading to non Harry Potter fans as well?

Does anyone else think NASA should reconsider their plans for a manned mission to Mars? With Europe, Ceres, Enceladus, Ganymede and many more promising moons out there it seems kind of a waste to spend time, effort and capital in Mars now.

I find the amount of people that have a complete and utter lack of empathy staggering. Average people really couldn't care less if someone they don't know is hurt as long as they have what they want; coming across somebody truly e

I think it's perfectly realistic, and wouldn't necessarily mean things would go south post take over. YouTube is still very much alive, brand and all, and it's been many years since the take over.

For what is worth I could follow the gif without trouble. Perhaps it's harder to follow if you aren't used to Android?

In other words, the prompt to "install" the shortcut will always appear for sites meeting all the criteria. I guess one can always remove the manifest file to stop the prompt from showing in the interim.

That's interesting, I wonder if it's mature enough to run on itself :-)

There's been Trezor for some time now: https://www.bitcointrezor.com/ Projects like these are great, but they won't drive adoption per se.

According to CrunchBase [1]: > 21 Inc is a Bitcoin mining pool. It is working on specially designed chips that will drive new equipment specifically aimed at doing this more efficiently Though I guess that description is outdated now.

They've been marketing Firefox with a strong focus on openess for sometime now. Someone at Mozilla clearly decided that openness was their main USP at some point.

> Mozilla sometimes gets confused and makes bad choices, like manually reviewing all code that gets published in its addon store To be fair, extension malware runs rampant in Google Chrome, so it wasn't necessarily a bad idea per se

Chrome has just too much momentum. Firefox has to be significantly better at this point to be noticed again, and right now it's somewhere between "just as good" and "marginally better".

I remember this, it was very short lived but it indeed existed; I think it wasn't pre-YouTube though, I remember it as a direct YouTube competitor prior to the take over by Google.

That was also the only use I ever got out of MySpace, checking out new bands/musicians quickly to decide whether I wanted to hear more. IIRC facebook did try a similar feature but never really catched on.

How does it compare to Applifier/Unity Ads?

> But, yeah, they did avoid the obnoxious ads (at first) I think that's debatable, perhaps it wasn't as bad as MySpace at the time, but the facebook I joined in 2008 was fairly obnoxious with advertisers using profile pictures
