I think you're misunderstanding the situation a little bit. They didn't "rename" her account, the article says that @kathleen's visible name was '___kathleen'. What happened is the account got pruned, and

Mozilla's stance on respecting people's private, personal decisions (as a company working on a communication medium) is way more important to me than its stance on same-sex politics. Where did all the privacy advocates suddenly di

As far as I can tell, a carbon-copy of AWS' Route53, except ever-so-slightly cheaper. Should be fun to see what comes next from either of them.

I strongly recommend he consider the University of Waterloo. It may not have that shiny Ivy League veneer, but since his main draw to CMU was its industry ties, he'll be at least as (if not more) happy there. With his obvious drive and

They have some of the best engineers and VPs in their space, huge hype, mindshare, and by all accounts a kick-ass product. Forget why Facebook is interested, I don't get why Oculus would even consider selling for 10% of a WhatsApp. The

Unless I'm missing something, shouldn't this be titled "How I paid someone $200 to make an OS X app for me"?

How can I take the article seriously when it says that "GitHub has been embroiled in a series of diversity controversies, such as programmers adding racial and sexist slurs into their code", which links to an article where someone

Yeah, kind of a self-important hipster too. > Basically, Github needs to be accepting of programmers of all stripes, or they are destined to be irrelevant (or at least doing lots of scrambling) once the trendy kids move on from the tre

The thing is, if Satoshi Nakamoto actually is any kind of elderly Japanese man in Brooklyn, then it's probably this one. There's a lot of anecdotal evidence (like, for example, his name, his background, etc) that link it to him.

It doesn't seem that flint parses at all – it only tokenizes, and then you write "rules" on "streams of tokens." It kinda sounds like a set of fancy regexes, but on tokens instead of characters.

Reading the changelog at that link made me realize that Ruby's core trunk is still hosted on Subversion!

Which part? I know you're the creator of 4chan, and are necessarily going to see it "at its best", but surely even you must agree that many parts of it (especially /b/) behave badly?

by apetresc 13y ago
It's quite clear from his context that he meant "decay" as in "become mean and nasty", not "become unpopular." In that sense, yes, 4chan is absolutely a perfect example.

Can someone explain in technical-but-not-necessarily-domain-expert terms what the relationship between QEMU and KVM is? Is one a dependency of the other, or could they each work independent of the other?

This article's author must be confused. There's just no chance that the NSA decides the best way to monitor WoW is to actually put people in the game and use whatever in-game tools there are for interacting with players. You&#x2
