I think the point is to remove the links from linuxmag to the bad guys.

While he built from source, its worth nothing that Python 2.6 seems to be the newest version in the yum repos (last time I checked).

You are right, but this is exactly how Apple works. Start with very few features and polish to a pristine sheen. Then add new features and proclaim the world is changing. It certainly has been working for them, and generally, isn't that the

From my understanding, its not a md5 hash or equivalent. Its just encoding the 64 bits to a "hash" thus allowing a fuzzy comparison between hashes. Someone correct me if I am wrong. Obviously, this isn't robust enough to find all matches. A

Yes. I'm assuming that it reported as the cost of revenue (~58% in Q1 2011).

Did the 2000 bubble come with revenue numbers like these recent IPOs?

Absolutely wild. Revenue was almost as much in Q1 2011 as it was in all year in 2010 ($645m vs. $713m) with a 20,000% revenue growth since June 200. They are hoping to raise "close to $1 billion at a valuation of about $20 billion." [1] And

I feel like Planet Money (as much as I love them) kind of missed the point with their podcast, and it was nice to see Jonathan run with it. This is indeed the future of music. Fragmentation. From major labels, to indie labels, to individual

I've often wondering what would happen to populations if/when gerontology researchers like Aubrey de Grey do find a way to delay death from old age or even stop it completely. Would a replacement rate of 2 just result in an ever increasing

People find it fun to take and share stylized photos with friends. Someone thinks that form of expression and socializing is fundamentally flawed. Pretentious blog post ensues. Nothing gained. Get off my lawn.

That is just the Google way it seems. Try getting help for an Adwords/Adsense issue and you get the same nonsense. Sorry Google, not matter how hard you try, good customer never scales as easy as you'd like.

Interesting that they are pretty much abandoning their massive lead on casual gaming (which is a way bigger market than hardcore gamers). My parents enjoy playing Wii, but I don't see them buying/playing a console with 4 extra screens. Soun

The NYT piece on Porsche & Volkswagen (and many other market corners) is actually a really useful piece of financial literature. It nicely outlines some of the outlandish and clever ways that people can use common market forces to creat

True, but at the same time, we're talking about billions of dollars of real money. In clear self interest, all those institutions will have built obvious checks in their system. Losing several billions of dollars in seconds is something the

I totally agree, but the problem is that not giving animals those anti-biotics is bad in a pragmatic sense as well. For example, let's say you don't give cattle antibiotics anymore. Cattle destined for production are generally tightly packe

No one but you is comparing the two. * One is a moral judgement: Should we subjectively mistreat animals in order for humans to be healthy and prosper? * The other is a scientific question: Is irradiation a safe and effective food sanitizin

Sorry, but I have a bone to pick with people spouting this type of blanket rhetoric. Animals are treated as units of production in developed countries because this is what is required to provide sustenance at a scale that makes it economica

I don't see how that is so surprising. At the time, Python was still a rather new interpreted language that was more or less focused on research applications. Nowadays there are tons of improvements, and let's not forget we have CPU cycles

Just in case anyone is wondering, the parent comment earned 26 points (which is one of my highest point counts to date).

I do believe a blog post about how to practically implement such things into a framework (say Rails or Django) would do well.

So, I thought this might be a "Thunderbird" in the cloud type service (IE: enter all your IMAP accounts and we'll sync it online). Bummer that it seems to be just another email provider.

I don't really see any reason for Dish to do this. What value is there? Brand image? Maybe, but $320 million doesn't sound right.

Reading this reminded me of some of the parallels one can make between writing and jazz. Ask any jazz musician and they will say that there are tons of "rules" and "suggestions" for what to play over specific harmonic movements. This is imp

Brilliant little idea, I think the big selling point is speed and ease of use. I might create a similar product to this for BitBuffet.com (a similar file selling service I created), as I think the process can be further streamlined. Digital

Regardless, "I let someone fuck up" is not as forthright as "I fucked up".
