I couldn't agree with you more. We have a fundamental culture of constant growth. It is by definition unsustainable. My hope is that if we did manage to ward off death for a bit longer, we might transcend some of our flawed notions. Wh

This is truly the most amazing time to be alive (so far). No matter what repercussions the destruction of aging might have, it awes me that we talk of dramatically extended life and the colonization of the stars not only as something feasib

My current work setup is a Macbook Pro on the left, with two vertical 1920x1080 monitors center and right. I'm a web developer, and it's very nice for pretty much everything.

Someone else pointed out, if you just had a flag on each user to indicate if the password is doubled, you could just check the hash of the first half of the provided password when the user logs in.

After checking my sources, I am indeed wrong. Sorry to anyone who took me at my word, it seems Mozilla has no ties to Matchstick.

An external company driven by members of the Firefox OS team. So not Mozilla, but close enough.

You're probably right, but I just thought about it from the point of view of someone dying from a (currently) incurable illness. On one hand, you can die, and that will probably be it for you. On the other hand, you can become cryogeni

Yep, I can definitely reiterate this experience. Grew up in Christchurch, lived through the quakes (was in the central city for the more devastating Feb quake). I recently moved to Wellington, and it got me thinking for a few. I realized ex

If you feel like getting a tad nerdy, you can run other Linux distros alongside ChromeOS. They make nice dev books. Sent from my Acer C720 running Elementary OS.

This is totally true. I simply hadn't thought of a better way to put it than ORM. I think it could be best put as an object spreadsheet mapper.
