   Well, you are the Visual Studio Product Manager, so I assume you are being paid to post these things. No?

   Don't most products nowadays use a built-in updater so they don't have to announce updates when they are available as 'news'?

   Yep. Let some other sucker do the hard work and be spiteful by blowing any money gained on something frivolous.

   It's all a trap. While they say they have no plans 1 to sell individual 2 browser histories 3. They don't say: 1 Plans change when we need money 2 So you'll sell aggregate data showing who visits what sites/subreddits

   Amazing that people pouring money into the latest buzzword have once again come up empty handed.

   Transparency in healthcare billing was actually a point Trump ran on but it disappeared from his website and his agenda as soon as he was elected.

   Hope they find much success and build a model that can be replicated. It is a sin how little effort is put into local news. It is far easier for large corporations to re-package the same national news into different markets, than it is to d

   Remember those AT&T commercials "You Will..."? They won a bunch of awards for them but most of the technologies, if they came to be, were brought to you by people other than AT&T. Same thing with the next steps in AI. They

    I sigh every time someone tries to explain a complex concept using a formula in that manner. In the name of efficiency it is kind of being exclusionary, which I kind of resent. I love math but it is not the only way to express complex conce

    I would add that insurance is also for the purpose of facilitating business and society advancement, while gambling is purely for pleasure.

    Just because something can be translated into something else doesn't mean that it is "based" on that thing. Would you say celsius is "based" on fahrenheit? Or the other way around? Is yiddish based on english? Both

    Like I said, very few. This mouser is more a retail play than a tech play. He also invests in IBM and Apple, both of which have yields to justify the investment. Don't expect to see him put money into Facebook/Twitter/Snap&#x

    I think every time someone uses a comparison to Warren Buffet or Berkshire Hathaway to market their own product, they should pay WB a commission. That said, it should be noted that WB doesn't like tech companies and invests in very few

    RGB and HSL are related, but I wouldn't say HSL is based on RGB. From a design point-of-view RGB actually has some problems, as it is difficult to manipulate in a reliable manner. However, from a data point-of-view if is useful because

    Those looking to roll back net neutrality are better organized, better funded, and better connected. I hate to say it, but this battle seems lost. We don't need to squander our time arguing over the finer points of the policy. We need

    I appreciate the spirit of the award, however it seems to be coming from an odd place for an odd amount. I'm not sure what part of the mission of the MIT Media Lab is really involved with rocking the boat. And 250k seems like a heck of

    Nice but HSLa would be a nice addition. I think we really should encourage the use of this format now that it is supported. The ability to shift saturation and brightness without impacting hue is really useful once it saves your butt a coup

    I am not a fan of css minimizers. I'm more a fan of writing compact, clean, logical css in the first place. A couple months ago I worked on a project and re-wrote a 129k minified css file someone created as a clean un-minified 12k css

    To me the demo was a bit bland. What it really needs is the ability to add cues, similar to how ML painting programs are now giving you the ability to define areas of a photo/painting (this is sky, this is water, etc). If you could say
