Another real question is this: Do people think the first of the major telcos to buckle down and actually do this will pull quite far ahead of the others?

I was going to say something similar. While I realize that we are mostly entrepreneurs here, aren't there some of us who believe in working hard and providing a reasonable service or product at a reasonable price? In all seriousness, peop

I'm probably not the only one, but I have no idea where the separation between Chromium and Chrome actually is. Can anyone enlighten me as to where the separation really is? Is Chrome a fork of Chromium, is Chromium an upstream? I know t

I'm surprised that no one has mentioned Etymotic. They're earbuds, but they sound pretty great. However, I have heard that to sound their best they need an amp. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003YTTN9I/ref=oh_o06_s00_i...

I agree that the scrolling is pretty smooth. It's not quite as smooth as I think it could be but it's far beyond acceptable. I think when people say that scrolling doesn't "feel right" on a Galaxy Nexus is because of the distance you have

Isn't the whole point of STEM to better the human experience? Without the liberal arts, I would argue there wouldn't be much of a human experience.

I agree. As much as I disagree with Ayn Rand on some things, she certainly disliked uselessness as much as I do. I can't help but wonder if certain aspects of her future's government in Atlas Shrugged is the natural end stage of a governm

I'm pretty sure they will do what their lawyers tell them the judge had the authority to do. If the judge does not have this authority, their lawyers will tell them to ignore it. If they judge does, they will tell them to obey it.

That relates to the first thought that I had. This seems like an awful lot of money for something that I'll never feel finished designing.

I wonder if they've ever done any AVR programming. Why do they insist that each register have a 3 to 4 character name?

The same thing also works in irb. >> "foo" => "foo" >> bar = _ => "foo" >> bar => "foo"

I too, would definitely recommend sticking with eclipse for now. When you really understand all the different steps of the build you could switch to emacs/vim + cli tools, but since it's pretty undocumented there's no reason not to stick w

I haven't used it seriously in quite a while, but I remember the search being fairly primitive, though faceted.

I find the (dis)honesty of this post baffling. I understand that they want to increase prices, whether because of greed, licensing, or other costs - I don't care. What seems extremely dishonest to me is to say that this somehow benefits t

We all know this because we, in theory, all want to operate ethical companies, and companies that stand for what they are, not how they seem. We endeavor to seem as we are. Perhaps blackberry could once again lead the pack if instead of i

I'd go so far as to say that I've never read a job description that was looking for a CS major and didn't expect them to know how to do these things.

The variance, just from glancing at that chart seems extraordinarily high. I'd be very hesitant to draw conclusions.

In the article he states that he will be fully covering the rotors. "The propellers, which are currently largely exposed, will also be fully covered in a mesh to ensure limbs don't get too near the blades."

What I frequently wonder is why an overwhelmed and understaffed organization can approve so many patents. If I were in their position, my default would be to deny almost everything. Are they being told that approving patents is in the bes

I can't help but wondering why statistics aren't published about "the things it takes to keep us safe" and how much they actually help at keeping us safe. It seems, to me, that if it was actually working, they would want to try to vet it w
