I think the parent also makes a very good point about creating a better market for reselling older products. The impact of new products being more expensive should be a relatively short-lived one given that consumers who do want the new, sh

Do you mean partial to? As in, you favor downvoting over commenting to point out their mistake? Don't mean to be nitpicky, just genuinely confused if that was a mistake or I'm misunderstanding.

It really is an odd way to start the article. The first three paragraphs seem to undermine the idea that diet is such a central element in a long lifestyle, but then in the next two it just sort of waves that away with a "but diet is w

But aren't you saying this is an already existing attack vector then?? Why try to find a similar one if you knew you could just get an older browser version and use this one? Is that not a good enough reason to be prepared for it?

I would also be interested to see how this is being interpreted as not "educational".

Valve isn't without its faults though. I've talked to plenty of people who are somewhat tired of the chokehold Steam seems to have on the gaming ecosystem. They may not be exactly destroying their image with mistakes like this pas

I don't think this has anything to do with DRM. As Pollock mentions, they release their books DRM free.

You're essentially arguing nothing more than personal preference; I don't think this holds much weight beyond that. You could essentially make the exact same statements about chess. "Every game starts exactly the same, the pi

Just curious, what would be the major drawbacks of not using relational here? My understanding is that AWS is pushing Dynamo quite a bit and it seems cheaper, so if they're only needing to query off of session id and maybe user id, sho

I do think there need to be significant changes to how road maintenance is subsidized, especially in the wake of more fuel efficient and even fuel-less vehicles. I think I've seen a similar concern in regards to bicyclists that I haven

Is there much research on how information like this actually affects consumer decisions? It looks good on paper, but the up-front cost is still generally much higher than higher-emission vehicles. My impression is that people will generally

Looking at the amount produced by year it seems like U.S. production has been relatively steady over the last year and not too much lower than it was in previous decades. I think looking at percentages doesn't really tell the full stor

> most class registration systems don't bar this Interesting, anecdotally, I went to three different universities and they all barred this from happening without an explicit override from a professor or occasionally an adviser. Just

Oh, no need, I figured it was a misprint and just wanted to make sure you didn't get any unexpected complaints about it. Thank you for being so cool about it though!

I'm confused on my credit balance after signing up. The pricing printout shows a 1,000(x2) for the registration tier, and below the table seems to indicate that these (x2) markers represent the double credit offer for beta users. Howev

I believe they were implying with the use of the word purportedly that it actually did not. As you mention, podcasting was already fairly large and growing quickly when Serial hit the spotlight. I get the impression that a lot of establishe

Maybe for this particular use case, I don't really see how it says anything about the UX for actually using GitHub for it's intended purpose.

Wouldn't being able to continue your life unobstructed by the need for some potential purchases be an asset in the same way the parent described student or car loans as potential assets? If something comes up outside your usual cash fl

Is that really persuasion though? I mean, it's used as a form of persuasion, yes, but how often do you see guilt and shame successfully persuade someone to another side? I think the prevalence of those tactics is what feeds the attitud

Are there any potential competing theories this detection could also support? I'm wondering how much room there is here for confirmation bias, but I suppose that's a pretty hard thing to measure without the benefit of hindsight.

It seems to me the author's intent is mostly for people to use for backing tracks for them to practice with, not necessarily sampling for production. Though, honestly having a bunch of beats sorted out like this could be handy even jus

At least in the context of Australia's resources this seems pretty significant considering it was 110 of 140 positions just in the one area, apparently with more cuts on the way. A drop to a quarter of research staff on pretty much any

Nostalgic fun is a good way of putting it. I find myself doing this sometimes with friends as more or less a joke. If people outside my closer group of friends do it I actually find it pretty annoying.
