Ghost in the Shell but no Blade Runner? ... although I still can't tell if it's a joke list or not because Hackers is on it.

I have no idea how you could make that logical jump. I think it's more likely you own a smartphone and have applications installed that have enough privileges to siphon all your call history and then your data is up for grabs by anyone

That's blatantly not true. You have to press: ctrl+esc, up arrow, enter, c, m, d, enter, alt+m, enter (or something along those lines) And in the end I'm pretty sure the windows command prompt doesn't allow you to maximise it

I think it's pretty clear why this is. I used to contribute a lot and then my content was repeatedly cut because of streamlining and simplification or the whole page got scrapped because it's not notable. When I read a wikipedia a

The difference being that the author of the doomguy website seems to me is just having a laugh and you're being dead serious.

I think it says more about humanity circa 2013 that you fail to see the irony of your post. Apologies if you meant it as a joke.

That article is rather pointless as it measures highly subjective things like friendliness and compares crime stats which are derived using different approaches in different countries. So what if Japan has little to none reported crime. C

Collaboration overhead. If you replace 10 average programmers with 1 good programmer he doesn't need 10x productivity to match the combined productivity of 10 programmers (which is not a sum). On top of that, programming productivity i

Sorry, I am probably overreacting. It does annoy me every time people complain about security or privacy when they themselves hold those two in the lowest regard possibly crossing over to contempt. And in some cases those people know what t

Any person who used their company email to sign up to linkedin and then leaked the password by giving it to linkedin should be sued by the company that employs them for negligence. They are the same people who re-use their passwords and wri

That is nowhere in the article, not even between the lines, outside the lines, generally implied by the curvature of the lines or audible if played backwards and slowed down by a factor of 10. Don't agree with the blog's author th

Buy spices in bulk - save lots of money. The price per kg is the same as per 100g at your supermarket. And then you can get away with eating the same staple foods all the time. More meat and at least some beef. Obviously you can't eat steak

The website didn't load initially, so I allowed it javascript and cookies, fine. Then the hilarious "skip intro" button transported me back to the 90s. Then the website finally loaded with style over substance and a hilariously tiny window

She's not exactly a struggling mother who needs the money to make her child's dream come true. She could probably stretch to a laptop or even a 100 of them. Is this meant to be educational? For whom? There are quite a few projects by people

How can such a thing be legally binding. Did you tell your wife? Can they sue for that? What if you're not married to your partner? Your bank and every person who has seen your bank statement (a lot of people) knows what you're earning. Can

Sorry, this is off-topic but surely hatred is much worse a motivation than anything. Honestly, I'm not advocating money as a good motivator. I go to work and I buy things and I'm happy with capitalism but really, I just spent the last few m

And Peter Detkin coined the term patent troll and now runs a company that's one of the worlds biggest patent trolls. Irony? Or just people being willing to do anything for money. There are worse motivations.

I was about to point out the same thing, also "tak tak" means "yes, yes". Also, learning from "meme posters" is a bad idea. They often intentionally misuse the language in a non-obvious way, especially if you've just started learning it. I
