   To me the article read like a justification of HTM theory, which I find to be more like a cult and less like a science.

   Nope. Areas where customers are currently solving their problems without the use of technology. Markets form around problems, not solutions.

   I'm a happy CKEditor 4 user, but let me know when this gets to 5.1.1. With so much rework, I just can't see myself rolling the dice and rolling this out right away! Congrats, though. Seems like an ambitious three year long project

    I also use paper. So there are two of us. 8x11 notebook of quarter-inch graph paper. Useful for taking notes wither portrait (in meetings) or landscape (in front of a computer). Also graph paper obviously helps with sketches and dividing up

    This is huge. I'm very curious why there is not a larger discussion around this.

    "Limited rationality" not "highly irrational". The traditional economic view is people act in their own self-interest. I would summarize this research by saying people act in their own perceived self-interest. Lots of

    My first thought was Armory + Oil Reserve is potential to blow up the island and open the gates of hell. That sounds like a big risk to me.

    Sure, I like the thinking. In theory some of these costs will hit the errors and omissions insurance, which will drive up their costs in the long run (I know they are being absorbed by Verizon, but typically...). In turn part of the insuran

    I used to be wishy washy about PR becoming a state. Now I'm 100% behind it. This is what happens with taxation without representation. Eventually you get screwed.
